Open a new trading position. Requires TRADEX_KEYPAIR to be configured.
AI agents use open_position to commit financial operations through TradeX MCP Server — usually the final step of a payment, billing, or trading workflow. A call moves real money.
Opening a trading position is a financial commitment that moves funds or creates financial obligations. Since it uses a real Solana keypair and executes on the TradeX platform (a perpetual futures market), misuse could result in significant financial losses. This clearly falls under Financial, which is the highest severity category.
From the tool's definition 'Open a new trading position' and 'Requires TRADEX_KEYPAIR to be configured' — directly commits a financial trade/position on the TradeX platform using a real Solana keypair for transaction signing.
