How It Works
The full lifecycle of a copy trade — from trader signal to your vault.
Trader selection
AlphaCoreX continuously scans on-chain Hyperliquid performance and ranks traders on win rate, drawdown, sharpe, consistency, and capital efficiency. Only the top-tier candidates are followed. Underperformers are paused automatically.
Vault architecture
Funds live in two places, by design:
- Arbitrum vault — your USDC stays in the AlphaCoreX vault on Arbitrum One. Per-deposit accounting tracks every user's share precisely.
- Hyperliquid trading account — capital required for active positions is bridged to the vault's Hyperliquid account through the official Hyperliquid bridge.
Real-time mirroring
AlphaCoreX watches the selected traders continuously. The moment one of them enters, adjusts, or exits a position, your vault places a matching order — sized proportionally to your share of the pool.
- Order size scales to your vault's allocation for that trader.
- Leverage follows the trader's leverage, within the vault's safety limit.
- Exits are mirrored faithfully, including partial closes.
PnL accounting
Realized PnL is credited to your vault when a position closes. Unrealized PnL moves with live Hyperliquid prices and is reflected on your dashboard in real time.
Performance fees are charged at close time, only on profitable trades, using a high-water mark per user. See Fees & HWM.
Why this design?
- Same venue: trades hit Hyperliquid's order book — no slippage from synthetic mirrors.
- Self-custody: withdrawals always return to the original wallet.
- Auditable: every deposit, fill, and fee is recorded on-chain.
