Connect your wallet
Open app.alphanet.global and connect the wallet account you intend to fund and trade with.
Open Connect wallet
Select Connect wallet in the top-right corner to see the available connection options.
Choose a connection method
Choose your wallet or a supported connection method. Follow the prompts in your wallet, check the website and account, and confirm the connection.
Verify the account
After connecting, compare the account address shown on AlphaNet with your wallet and confirm they match.
Enable trading
Read the terms shown by the page. If Enable trading appears, select it and review and complete the requested signatures in your wallet. Then continue with Deposit.
If the connection does not complete
Check that the selected connection method supports your wallet and that the connection request has been handled in the wallet, then reconnect.
Deposit USDC into AlphaNet
Before starting, connect your wallet and hold USDC on Arbitrum One.
Open Deposit
Select Deposit in the connected account interface. Start the deposit on AlphaNet, then confirm the requested approval and transaction in your wallet.
Network, amount and balance
Select Arbitrum under Deposit Chain. Quantity is the deposit amount; Available is the wallet balance. The example deposits 100,000 USDC from an available 1,000,000 USDC.
Review the account amount and fee
Enter your own amount. Review the quantity under Your AlphaNet account and Account Activation Fee, then continue with Deposit. The address and amounts shown are examples.
Confirm approval and deposit
If Approve appears, review the token and allowance, then confirm it and the deposit transaction. Check network, amount and gas. Arrange ETH on Arbitrum if needed.
Check the credited balance
Wait for processing to finish. In Portfolio → Overview, check Account Equity and Free Collateral before allocating funds or placing orders.
Deposit transaction fees
Review the network, transaction fee and balance shown by your wallet before depositing.
Arbitrum gas
The deposit example in this guide uses Arbitrum. On-chain approvals and deposits on this network normally use ETH on Arbitrum for gas.
Arrange the required gas balance
If the wallet reports insufficient gas, use a method supported by your wallet to obtain ETH on Arbitrum, or transfer it to the same account on that network. Review the amounts and fees shown.
Continue the deposit
Once the gas balance is ready, return to AlphaNet to continue approval and deposit. Check the current available USDC balance before entering the deposit amount.
Choose a mode and strategy
Switch modes in Trade. This page uses ETH-PERP as an example.
Autopilot Mode
Choose an asset, strategy and USDC allocation. After deployment, the strategy submits orders according to model signals. You can adjust allocation or stop it.
Standard Mode
Choose direction, order type, leverage and size, then submit the order. You can set TP/SL or use Reduce only to reduce an existing position.
Explore ETH strategies
Choose ETH-PERP and Autopilot Mode. ETH offers Prime, Trend, OptimaShort and Archimedes. Click Deploy on a card to view details. Allocate USDC; you do not need to buy ETH as strategy capital.
Use the Strategy Marketplace
Open Strategies from the top navigation. Filter with All Markets, the strategy series and sorting controls, then open a strategy. Use Metrics, Analytics and Trades to explore its details.
Read the metrics
ROI is return over the selected period; Max Drawdown is the largest drawdown. Max Exposure is maximum position exposure relative to allocation. Training, Testing and Live identify the model’s different stages.
Set allocation and deploy
This example uses ETH Prime. All strategies have a minimum allocation of 1,000 USDC.
Check Max. Allocation
This shows the maximum additional allocation for the selected strategy. The example is 100,000 USDC. The actual amount depends on equity, existing allocations, manual positions and the strategy’s Max Exposure.
Enter Total Allocation
Enter the USDC amount to allocate: at least 1,000 USDC and no more than the available amount shown. Check the strategy name before submitting.
Deployment Ratio: up to 3×
New or increased deployments must remain within 3×. Add each allocation multiplied by its Max Exposure, add manual net-position notional, then divide by Account Equity. Allocations count even before a strategy opens a position.
Confirm deployment
Click the deployment button and complete any wallet confirmation. In Portfolio → Strategies, check the name, allocation and status. Use Positions, Pending and Filled for positions, open orders and fills.
If there is no position yet
A deployed strategy may be waiting for a signal. Check that it is running, then review Pending and Filled. Its allocation already counts toward Deployment Ratio while it waits.
Allocation and account ratios
Allocation limits are calculated using each strategy’s Max Exposure.
(Σ allocation × Max Exposure + manual net-position notional) / Account Equity
Additional allocation =
max(0, 3 × Account Equity − existing commitments − manual notional) / selected Max Exposure
Deployment Ratio: 3×
Sum allocation × Max Exposure for every strategy, add manual net-position notional, then divide by Account Equity. New or increased deployments must be within 3×. Allocations count before a position opens; live strategy positions are not added again.
Additional allocation
Subtract existing strategy exposure commitments and manual net-position notional from 3 × Account Equity. Divide the remainder by the selected strategy’s Max Exposure, with a floor of zero. Margin, strategy capacity and venue limits can also affect the result.
Worked example
With 1,000 USDC equity, 1,000 USDC allocated to a strategy at 140% Max Exposure, and 200 USDC manual net-position notional, Deployment Ratio is 1.6×. The remaining exposure allowance is 1,400 USDC, supporting up to 1,000 USDC additional allocation to that 140% strategy, subject to other limits.
Auto-Stop Ratio: 6×
Add live strategy and manual net-position notional, then divide by Account Equity. At 6×, strategies stop and their positions close. Manual positions remain user-managed. Stopped strategies do not restart automatically.
Netting positions
Offset long and short positions only within the same asset and group. Calculate strategy and manual groups separately, then sum the absolute net notional for each asset. Do not offset across assets or groups. Changes in equity change the ratios.
Read your Portfolio
Use Overview for current account values and Performance for results over a selected period.
Account Equity
Current account equity, including unrealized PnL.
Available To Withdraw
The amount currently available to withdraw.
Total Autopilot Allocation
Total USDC allocated to Autopilot strategies.
Unrealized PnL
Unrealized profit or loss on open positions.
Free Collateral
Collateral available for additional trading.
Open Position Notional
The notional value of open positions.
Performance
Select a period such as 1W, then review PnL, ROI, Volume and Average Daily PnL. Total Equity and Cumulative PnL charts show equity and cumulative PnL.
Positions and account ratios
Overview also shows strategy and manual positions, Open Positions, Margin Ratio, Maintenance Margin, Deployment Ratio and Auto-Stop Ratio.
Manage strategies and withdraw
Open Portfolio to manage deployments in Strategies and review funding activity in Transfers.
View and adjust
Find the strategy and click View. Use Change Allocation to adjust its allocation. Before increasing it, check Max. Allocation and the 3× deployment limit.
Stop a strategy
Click Stop Strategy, review the confirmation and submit. Check the strategy status, then review closing activity in Positions, Pending and Filled. Stopping and withdrawing are separate operations.
Auto-Stop Ratio: 6×
Add live strategy net-position notional and manual net-position notional, then divide by equity. At 6× or above, strategies stop and their positions close. Manual positions remain user-managed. Stopped strategies do not restart automatically.
Withdraw to your wallet
Check Available To Withdraw, then open Withdraw. Review network, token, amount and receiving account, and follow the confirmation prompts. Adjust strategies or positions first if you need more withdrawable funds.
Check the result
Review Transfers, then check the balance on the selected network in your wallet. Keep the transaction record. If it is still processing, avoid submitting the same operation again.
Place a Standard Mode order
Switch to Standard Mode in Trade and choose the asset.
Choose direction and order type
Choose Buy or Sell. Market executes at market prices; Limit requires a price and waits for its execution conditions.
Set size and leverage
Check Cross and leverage. Enter asset quantity in Qty or USDC notional in Total≈. Review Available, fees and the order summary.
Set TP/SL if needed
TP/SL sets take-profit and stop-loss conditions. Reduce only limits an order to reducing an existing position. Other order types include Stop limit, Stop market and Scaled.
Submit the order
After connecting and funding the account, review direction, type, price and size, then submit. Complete any required confirmation in your wallet.
Review fills and positions
Use Pending to review or cancel open orders, Filled for fills, and Positions for current positions. Position history and Order history show historical activity.
Questions and final checks
Check connection, funding, deployment and trading separately.
Why can’t I deploy with funds in my wallet?
Check that Deposit completed and funds reached the trading account. Then check authorization, Free Collateral, the 1,000 USDC minimum, strategy capacity and Deployment Ratio.
Why is there no position after deployment?
The strategy may be waiting for a signal. Check its status in Portfolio → Strategies, positions in Positions, open orders in Pending, and fills in Filled.
How do I check a deposit?
Check the wallet transaction status, network, USDC amount and account address, then review Transfers and Overview. Keep the transaction hash for official support if needed.
Why do allocation limits differ by strategy?
Max. Allocation depends on the selected strategy’s Max Exposure, account equity, existing deployments and manual positions. Different exposure limits produce different available allocations for the same account.
Before submitting
Check app.alphanet.global, account, network, amount, permissions and fees. After deploying, review the strategy status and positions.
