How Alpha Pro works

Alpha Pro trades a diversified portfolio of DOGE, XRP, ADA, SOL, LINK, ETH, AVAX on the 1-hour timeframe. Every four hours, it reassesses market conditions and classifies each asset as bullish, bearish, or ranging.

The strategy then adapts automatically:

  • Bullish markets: favors long positions.
  • Bearish markets: Alpha 2x can switch to short positions, while Alpha 1x remains long-only and may stay in cash.
  • Ranging markets: reduces exposure and waits for higher-probability opportunities.

Rather than committing all capital at once, Alpha Pro builds positions gradually through predefined scaling orders. If price temporarily moves against an open position, additional entries improve the average entry price while staying within the strategy's predefined risk limits.

Profitable positions are closed using a trailing take-profit, allowing gains to run while automatically locking in profits as momentum fades. Most trades are designed to complete within a few hours, although market conditions can occasionally extend holding times.

Risk management

Every position is protected by multiple automated risk controls designed to preserve capital and avoid excessive exposure.

  • Volatility filter pauses new entries during periods of extreme market stress.
  • Crash detection exits positions during sudden market dislocations.
  • Hard stop-loss limits the maximum loss on every trade.
  • Stagnation guard closes positions that remain open beyond the strategy's maximum holding period, freeing capital for new opportunities.
  • Cooldown period prevents immediate re-entry after a stop-loss, helping reduce whipsaw losses.

These protections work together automatically without requiring manual intervention.

Choose your version: Alpha 1x or Alpha 2x

Both versions run the exact same engine. The choice between them is really a risk choice.

  • Alpha 1x — spot, steady. Trades real coins on the spot market. No leverage, long-only, funded with USDT or USDC — and it can never be liquidated. The conservative way in.
  • Alpha 2x — leveraged, both directions. Trades linear perpetual contracts at 2x. When the market turns down and stays down, it switches to shorting and keeps earning. Funded with stablecoin or with BTC as collateral. More upside, more risk — liquidation is possible, and a brand-new 2x runs long-only for about its first month while its trend signal matures.

What to expect

Alpha Pro is designed to adapt rather than predict.

Instead of trying to call market tops and bottoms, it reacts to changing market conditions and adjusts its exposure accordingly. In rising markets it seeks long opportunities; in prolonged downtrends Alpha 2x can benefit from short positions, while Alpha 1x shifts into a more defensive stance. During healthy ranging markets, both versions continue searching for shorter-term opportunities. One honest caveat: in a truly flat, calm market — when prices barely move — few trades close while fees keep adding up, so results can go thin until movement returns.

The objective is not to generate a few outsized winning trades, but to compound returns through a large number of disciplined, risk-managed trades across seven actively managed crypto assets.

Past performance is not indicative of future results. Historical backtests and live performance should not be interpreted as guarantees of future returns.

Risks, in the open

Every strategy carries risk. Here's where Alpha Pro's lives — and what stands between it and your money.

⛔ The risk 🟢 The hedge
Market risk: a price that keeps falling and doesn't bounce. The layered protections above are always on — limited buy-steps, the stop-loss, the crash exit, the time guard, and a pool that keeps a cash reserve.
Liquidation risk (Alpha 2x only): at 2x, roughly a 50% adverse move would liquidate a position. The exits are built to fire far earlier — and Alpha 1x can't be liquidated at all.
Exchange & custody risk: your exchange is your custodian — insolvency, breaches, and freezes are real risks of any exchange account. Alpha Pro itself can only trade, never withdraw. There's no pot of client funds to lose, and you can revoke its access anytime.
You: manually trading the same coins or pulling funds mid-trade creates mismatches. Rule one — don't touch the trades. Adding funds is always safe; for anything bigger, pause or check with the team first.

In every case, your loss is limited to what's in the account. Neither version can put you in debt.

FAQ

Before you start

Can Alpha Pro lose money?

Yes — it can lose money, and it has had losing trades. Alpha Pro is built for many small wins, but those are paid for by rarer, bigger losses when a price keeps falling and doesn't bounce back. Losing trades close through the stop-loss, a time-based close for trades stuck too long, a trend-flip close (on 2x), an emergency crash exit, or — on 2x only — liquidation in an extreme move. The design focuses on keeping each loss small and bounded. Your total loss is always limited to your deposit — neither version can put you in debt. Alpha 1x can't be liquidated but a coin can sit in a deep dip; Alpha 2x adds liquidation risk. No strategy wins every time, and past results don't predict the future.

Can I pick my own coins, or is the seven-coin pool fixed?

The seven coins are fixed — you can't pick, add, remove, or run just some of them. Every Alpha Pro portfolio (both 1x and 2x) trades the same basket: DOGE, XRP, ADA, SOL, LINK, ETH, AVAX. If you were hoping for specific coins: XRP, ADA, and ETH are already in it. BTC isn't one of the traded coins, but on Alpha 2x your BTC can be used as backing (collateral) for the trades. Why fixed? The seven coins are turned on together as one unit, sharing a single pool of money, and the strategy's safety limits are tuned to that exact set — so it isn't a setting you can change. If you only want some of the coins, note that the strategy already does that for you: it automatically holds back coins that are trading weakly and only trades the ones in good shape. If the fixed basket really doesn't fit you, that's a conversation with the team, not a setting.

Can I run Alpha 2x on its own, without Alpha 1x?

Yes — you can run Alpha 2x on its own; there's no requirement to also run Alpha 1x. In fact, Alpha 2x is the default for new sign-ups, so running it alone is the common case. The two versions share the same engine but not capital or accounts — they're fully independent. A standalone Alpha 2x is one portfolio of seven bots, funded with stablecoin or crypto collateral, activated with the usual minimum and checks. Two things to confirm: your exchange must support leverage for it to be genuine 2x (on a spot-only venue it runs as the long-only spot version instead), and you're comfortable with the leveraged risk (liquidation possible, funding costs, and a new bot can't short for about its first month). Some clients pair 1x + 2x, but that's a preference, not a requirement.

Why is there a minimum, and can I start below it?

Alpha Pro spreads your capital across a fixed seven-coin portfolio, and each coin enters with a small initial order plus follow-up orders. Every exchange enforces its own minimum order sizes — on an account below the minimum, some of those orders would be rejected, leaving the strategy unable to place its full sequence as designed. The minimum also leaves enough reserve to keep buying through a dip. Starting below it isn't possible: if the connected account holds less, the strategy will not start. The current minimums are $30,000 USDT or USDC for Alpha 1x and 0.4 BTC or $30,000 USDT or USDC for Alpha 2x. If you've been quoted a different figure for a specific exchange, account type, or arrangement, that isn't a strategy setting — confirm it with the team.

Do I set my own trade sizes, or does Alpha Pro decide?

Alpha Pro decides each trade's size itself — that's by design. What you control is the total capital the strategy works with (you fund the account, and sizing follows your balance — deposits and realized profits scale trades up automatically) and which version you run: spot Alpha 1x (lower risk) or leveraged Alpha 2x (higher risk). You don't set per-trade amounts.

Your money & profits

What currency do Alpha Pro's profits accumulate in?

Both versions accumulate in stablecoin, not in coins — this trips people up. On Alpha 1x, profits and losses land in your USDT or USDC. On Alpha 2x, even if you posted BTC as collateral, the profits still settle in stablecoin — your BTC amount doesn't change (it isn't sold or added to). The idea behind BTC-backed Alpha 2x is "hold your crypto, earn dollars": your BTC keeps its price exposure while the trading earns stablecoin on top. So if your goal is specifically to grow your BTC stack through trading, neither version does that directly — the payout is always dollars. (The one exception: in a liquidation, the exchange can sell some of your BTC collateral.)

Does Alpha 2x grow my BTC (accumulate BTC via futures)?

No — and this is often misunderstood. Alpha 2x with BTC collateral does NOT grow your BTC. Your BTC just sits there as backing (never sold or bought by the strategy), and all profits settle in stablecoin. So a well-performing account ends up with the SAME amount of BTC plus a growing stablecoin balance — "hold BTC, earn dollars," not "more BTC." If your actual goal is to grow your BTC stack, that would be a coin-margined ('inverse') futures product, which Alpha 2x deliberately isn't. A simple middle path: run Alpha 2x, then convert your stablecoin profits into BTC yourself whenever you like.

If I add or withdraw funds, does Alpha Pro resize its trades automatically?

Yes. Alpha Pro sizes its trades from your account balance, so adding money automatically makes future trades bigger — on both Alpha 1x and Alpha 2x. It happens on its own: each time a bot starts a new trade, it works out its budget from your current balance. Trades already open keep their size; the bigger sizing kicks in from the next trade. Extra funds also help right away — on 1x, it's less likely a follow-up buy runs short of cash during a dip; on 2x, more collateral widens your safety margin and lowers liquidation risk. Withdrawing works the same way in reverse (smaller trades on the cycles after). But pulling out money the bots are actively using can leave a follow-up buy short, or thin your 2x margin — so coordinate larger withdrawals with the team first.

Why doesn't Alpha Pro use my whole balance?

It's deliberate. The strategy keeps part of your capital in reserve so it can average down through a dip instead of being fully invested at the top. A large idle-looking balance isn't wasted — it's the reserve that lets the strategy keep buying through a drawdown, which is exactly when it matters most. If you want it to trade larger overall, the lever is a bigger account balance, which flows into sizing automatically from each bot's next cycle.

When markets get rough

Can Alpha Pro run several trades at once? Can losing trades stack up?

Yes — Alpha Pro runs up to seven trades at once, one per coin. But each coin only runs one trade at a time, so you never get a pile-up of separate losing trades on the same coin. What can look like "stacking" is actually one trade being built bigger at lower prices (the safety orders), all closed together on the bounce. The situation to understand is a broad market drop, where several coins fall together and several trades go deep at once. That's the main stress case, and the shared pool handles it: it keeps managing open trades but slows down new ones as it fills up, and no single coin can hog the pool. Several trades underwater at once is normal and expected for this strategy — not a malfunction — but it's also where its risk concentrates.

Why is only one coin (or a few) trading, not all seven?

It's deliberate. The strategy can hold weaker coins out of the market and open new positions only on coins in healthier shape — capital preservation, not a malfunction. Which coins are active shifts as market conditions change. Any position already open keeps being fully managed, even for coins that are currently held out of new entries.
