Aster Introduces Shield Mode: Redefining High-Performance Perpetual Trading

Aster has rolled out “Shield Mode,” a cutting-edge protective high-performance trading interface designed to revolutionize the perpetual trading experience. By consolidating the complete spectrum of 1001x leverage trading capabilities into a single unified platform, Shield Mode transforms how traders engage with advanced positioning strategies.

Streamlined Trading Without Friction

The new high mode eliminates traditional barriers that have long complicated leveraged trading workflows. Traders no longer need to navigate fragmented interfaces or manage interactions with public order books. With Shield Mode, opening and managing both long and short positions becomes straightforward—all within one cohesive account system. The platform delivers direct access to high-leverage trading without requiring cross-chain bridges, multiple transaction steps, or repetitive on-chain signatures that slow down execution.

Flexible Fee Structures for Every Trading Style

Aster recognizes that different traders have different priorities. Shield Mode offers two distinct fee frameworks. The transparent fee mode provides a fixed percentage model built for traders executing sustained high-volume operations, ensuring predictability and cost efficiency. Alternatively, the P&L mode takes a performance-based approach—charging fees exclusively on profitable trades, aligning the platform’s interests with trader success.

Launch Incentive: Zero Fees Through Year-End

To accelerate adoption and reward early participants, Aster is waiving all Shield Mode fees until December 31st, giving traders a zero-cost window to explore this high-performance trading mode and experience its advantages firsthand.

The launch marks a significant step in simplifying institutional-grade leverage trading for retail and professional traders alike.
