How It Works | AlephIQ
How it works

A quant shop, productised.

AlephIQ connects to your broker via API, runs institutional strategies across four asset classes, and charges only when you profit. Here's exactly how it works.

HOW THE DESK RUNS

Same machinery, any market.

Same model stack whether you're trading crypto, stocks, commodities or forex — one engine, hardened in production, exposed to your account.

01

Deep RL at the core

Reinforcement-learning agents trained on 12 years of tick-level data, retrained nightly on the latest regime — not a chatbot taped to a chart.

02

Risk first, returns second

Every position passes through a Kelly-capped sizer with hard 4% portfolio VaR and intraday circuit breakers that auto-flatten on drift.

03

Multi-strategy by design

Long/short equity, crypto basis, FX carry and event-driven sleeves run in parallel — uncorrelated by construction, blended by the meta-allocator.

04

Sub-200ms execution

Co-located in NY4 and LD4 with smart order routing across 9 venues. Slippage budgeted per trade, measured per fill.

HOW WE GET PAID

Profit-share, tiered.

No setup fees. No monthly subscription. No management fee on idle balances. We charge a percentage of profits only — and the share scales with the size of the gain. Bigger wins, bigger share for us; flat or losing months cost you nothing.

  • Pay only on realised profit, settled monthly
  • Tiered: small gains = small share, large gains = larger share
  • High-water mark — never charged twice on the same dollar
  • Funds custodied by your broker, not us

YOUR MONEY, YOUR BROKER

Non-custodial by design.

AlephIQ never touches your funds. You keep full control of your brokerage account at all times.

Step 1 — Connect your broker

Generate a read-and-trade API key in your broker's settings. Paste it into AlephIQ. Takes under two minutes.

Step 2 — We execute strategies

AlephIQ sends orders to your broker's API. Your broker executes and holds positions. All activity is visible in your broker's own dashboard.

Step 3 — Your funds stay safe

AlephIQ can never withdraw funds. We hold no client assets. Your broker's SIPC (or equivalent) protection applies in full.

Step 4 — Profit-share settled monthly

At month end, we calculate realised gain and deduct our profit-share fee. Zero fee in flat or losing months. High-water mark ensures you're never charged twice.
