Autopilot is AlphaNet’s mode for running a user-selected quantitative strategy automatically. The user chooses the strategy and its capital allocation; the strategy then applies its own trading process. The documented controls also allow allocation changes and stopping.
What Autopilot does not imply
Autopilot should not be interpreted as a promise that AlphaNet automatically selects the best strategy, rotates the whole portfolio or guarantees a target return. Choosing what to deploy remains a distinct decision from running the chosen strategy.
This distinction matters because an otherwise well-designed strategy can still behave differently across market environments. Automation does not remove the need to understand what the selected strategy is designed to do.
How it differs from Standard Mode
Standard Mode keeps trade decisions with the user. Autopilot applies systematic logic: individual sub-strategies can generate signals, while market-regime context informs which signals are acted on and how exposure is managed.
A portfolio can contain more than one strategy, but additional strategy names do not automatically create diversification. Strategies can share market exposure or lose in similar conditions.
The useful way to read an Autopilot strategy is as an ongoing process with a defined objective, risk profile and operating constraints—not as a forecast that every subsequent trade will be profitable.
Deployment and auto-stop limits
The 3× deployment limit uses each strategy allocation multiplied by its Max exposure percentage, plus manual net-position notional, divided by equity. The separate 6× auto-stop limit uses actual live strategy net-position notional plus manual net-position notional, divided by equity. Positions are netted within each asset separately for strategy and manual groups, then the absolute net amounts are added across assets; strategy and manual positions never offset each other. At the auto-stop limit, strategies are stopped and their positions closed; manual positions remain open for the user to manage. Additional available allocation is strategy-specific: take 3 × equity minus existing deployment exposure commitments and manual net-position notional, no lower than zero, then divide by the selected strategy’s Max exposure percentage.
