1 – 24 hours
Exit on funding deceleration
Risk Controls
ATR stops · FV ratio filter
Volatility-adjusted position sizing
II
HEAD TWO

Short weak alts, hedge with BTC/ETH longs. Delta-neutral pure relative value extraction capturing structural alt decay.
BEAR / CHOP

Delta hedged · max 10 pairs
Market-neutral by construction
III
HEAD THREE

Detects liquidation cascades via order book thinning, OI velocity, and cross-exchange divergence. Positions ahead of the waterfall.
VOLATILE
Mechanism
Microstructure signals
ML-driven cascade prediction
Hold Time

Fast entry and exit around events
Risk Controls
Tight stops · low exposure
High conviction, small position size

02 — HOW IT WORKS

Three steps to alpha

Deposit, let the system work, withdraw anytime. No lockups.

1

Deposit to the Vault

Connect your wallet to Hyperliquid and deposit USDC into the HYDRA vault. Your capital is pooled and managed by the autonomous strategy engine.

2

Strategies Execute 24/7

Three independent heads scan, score, and trade around the clock. Risk engine enforces position limits, stop losses, and daily drawdown caps on every trade.

3

Withdraw Anytime

No lockup periods. Withdraw your proportional share of the vault at any time. Performance fees are only charged on profits — if the vault doesn't make money, neither do we.

03 — EDGE

Why this works

01

Multi-strategy diversification

Three uncorrelated strategies mean drawdowns in one get offset by others. Single-strategy vaults live and die by one edge. HYDRA adapts to every regime.

02

Proprietary data pipeline

24/7 collection of microstructure data — OI velocity, book depth, cross-exchange funding. Every hour of data makes the models sharper. Compounding intelligence.

03

Never sleeps

The most profitable events happen at 3AM — leverage flushes, funding spikes, liquidation cascades. HYDRA catches opportunities no human can.

04

Risk-first architecture

Hard-coded circuit breakers, volatility-adjusted sizing, daily loss limits, ATR-based stops. Capital preservation isn't a feature — it's the foundation everything is built on.

05 — ROADMAP

The path to production

Building in public. Every milestone earned, not promised.

PHASE 0 — COMPLETE
Research & Validation
Analyzed top HL vaults ($5–14M TVL). Tested 17 indicator strategies against 180 days of data — all failed validation. Identified three proven structural edges.
DONE
PHASE 1 — COMPLETE
Data Infrastructure
Deployed 24/7 microstructure collector — OI snapshots, book depth, funding rates, cross-exchange data. 228 coins, 5-minute intervals. 124,000+ rows and growing.
DONE
PHASE 2 — IN PROGRESS
Head 1 Optimization
Funding capture bot deployed in paper trading. Backtester running 2,304 parameter sweeps. V2 engine with volatility-adjusted stops, FV ratio scoring, and price stability filters.
NOW
PHASE 3 — NEXT
Head 2: Beta-Neutral Engine
Build alt-coin basket construction, BTC/ETH delta hedging, and weekly rebalancing system. This is the primary income driver used by top HL vaults.
UPCOMING
PHASE 4
Head 3: Cascade Detection
Train ML models on accumulated microstructure data to predict liquidation cascades. Real-time WebSocket data integration for sub-minute signal detection.
UPCOMING
PHASE 5
Vault Launch
Open HYDRA vault on Hyperliquid with verified track record across all three heads. Accept deposits. Begin building TVL with transparent, real-time performance reporting.

06 — RISK

Transparent about risk

We believe the best way to build trust is to tell you exactly how you could lose money.

MARKET RISK

Extreme market events can cause losses beyond normal parameters. While circuit breakers and stop losses are hard-coded, no system can eliminate all risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

SMART CONTRACT RISK

The vault operates on Hyperliquid's infrastructure. While HL has no history of exploits, interacting with any DeFi protocol carries inherent smart contract risk.

STRATEGY RISK

Structural edges can degrade if market dynamics change or too many participants exploit the same mechanics. Continuous optimization and multi-strategy diversification are our mitigants.

WHAT WE DO ABOUT IT

Daily loss circuit breakers (3% max), volatility-adjusted position sizing, ATR-based stops on every trade, 50% max capital deployment at any time, and 24/7 system monitoring.

07 — FAQ

Common questions

Most vaults run a single strategy — one edge, one point of failure. HYDRA runs three uncorrelated strategies simultaneously. When funding capture is quiet, beta-neutral shorts are generating. When markets are calm, cascade detection waits. The multi-strategy architecture means more consistent returns across all market regimes.

HYDRA charges a performance fee only — you pay nothing unless the vault makes money. There are no management fees, deposit fees, or withdrawal fees. The performance fee is taken only on new high-water mark profits, meaning we never charge fees on recovering previous losses.

Yes. There are no lockup periods. You can withdraw your proportional share of the vault at any time through Hyperliquid's standard vault withdrawal process. Your share is calculated based on the vault's current NAV at the time of withdrawal.

Each head has independent risk controls — including per-trade stop losses and daily loss limits. If a single head hits its daily loss cap, it pauses automatically while the other heads continue operating. The vault-level circuit breaker limits total daily drawdown to protect depositors.

Each head targets a different structural inefficiency in perpetual futures markets. None rely on price prediction.

HEAD I — FUNDING CAPTURE

When leveraged traders create extreme directional imbalance, the exchange forces them to pay a premium. HYDRA takes the opposite side and collects that payment. Proprietary scoring filters out traps using volatility, liquidity, and momentum signals.

HEAD II — BETA-NEUTRAL

Alt-coins structurally decay against majors over time. HYDRA captures this decay through hedged pair positions — market-neutral by construction, profiting from relative movement regardless of whether the overall market goes up or down.

HEAD III — CASCADE HUNTER

Liquidation cascades are predictable before they trigger — if you know what to look for. HYDRA monitors proprietary microstructure signals across hundreds of markets to detect cascade conditions and position ahead of the move.

HYDRA is currently in optimization phase — Head 1 is paper trading while we accumulate data and run backtests. We will not launch the vault until we have a verified track record across multiple market regimes. Follow us on X for real-time build updates and be first to know when deposits open.

HYDRA is built by quantitative traders with experience across cryptocurrency markets, algorithmic trading systems, and risk management. We build in public — our roadmap, methodology, and system status are fully transparent. The code runs on dedicated infrastructure with 99.9% uptime.

We don't make return projections — anyone who gives you a guaranteed APR in crypto is lying. What we can tell you is that our backtested strategies show positive expectancy across tested market conditions, our risk controls limit max drawdown, and we optimize parameters continuously using real market data. Real results will speak for themselves.
