The Denver firm announced the offer on November 15, 2026, according to [GlobeNewswire](https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2026/11/15/3403083/0/en/vectortraders-offers-hands-off-perpetual-futures-access-as-stock-perps-arrive.html).\n\n## How the VectorTraders Managed Offer Works\n\nVectorTraders runs systematic, multi-strategy trading on crypto perpetual contracts. Its entry-level products are driven by funding-rate and basis arbitrage, collecting the funding payments between long and short holders and the spread between spot and futures prices from hedged, delta-neutral positions. Higher-yield products are driven by quantitative contract trading, which the firm describes as carrying a different risk profile from the entry tier.\n\nClients do not place trades or choose leverage; the firm sets moderate leverage itself. Target returns are quoted net of management and performance fees, trading commissions and slippage, and each client's rates are itemised in their investment records. Current plans, minimum deposits and lock periods are listed on the firm's [fund plans page](https://vectortraders.com), with further plans available after signing in.\n\nPerpetual futures are contracts that track an asset's price and never expire, with periodic funding payments keeping the contract near the asset price. Traders pick a leverage ratio, and a position closes automatically if the market moves far enough against it, which the firm says requires round-the-clock monitoring most individuals are not set up to do.\n\nMichael Bennett, External Market Spokesperson at VectorTraders, said: \"Most of them don't want to pick a leverage ratio or check a screen at three in the morning, and they shouldn't have to. Our clients make a deposit, and our desk does the trading.\"\n\nVectorTraders manages more than $30 million for clients in 90+ countries, including the United States. Target returns are estimates rather than guarantees, and the firm states that trading perpetual contracts involves risk, including the loss of capital.\n\n## Stock Perpetuals Clear US Regulators\n\nThe offer follows the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission clearing US trading of perpetual futures on individual stocks in early November, under a joint framework with the Securities and Exchange Commission, The Motley Fool reported on November 11, 2026. Kalshi became the first CFTC-regulated exchange to list single-stock perpetual futures, covering more than 50 stocks and indexes such as the S&P 500, and several platforms outside the US already offer them. A group of Wall Street trade associations has challenged the approval in court.\n\n## Scope Markets and Tiger Brokers Launch Products\n\nScope Markets launched pre-IPO contracts for difference on Anthropic and OpenAI, offering 24/7 long or short exposure at 100% margin, [FinanceFeeds](https://financefeeds.com/scope-markets-adds-pre-ipo-cfds-on-anthropic-and-openai-shares/) reported on November 9, 2026.
