Leaderboard
Published Jul 9, 2026 · Updated Aug 12, 2026
The AlphaFox leaderboard is a public ranking of crypto perpetual (futures) copy-trading and quant strategies, ordered by ROI verified from real runs on the platform, in both paper and live mode. The public strategy leaderboard only lists strategies that actually run on AlphaFox. Use it to compare ROI windows and drawdown, then copy parameters into your own paper or live connection—not guaranteed returns.
The leaderboard is the default dashboard page and the fastest place to copy a strategy from.
How do you read the AlphaFox leaderboard?
Read it in three passes: set the window to 90 days or longer, judge the equity curve and drawdown together, then open the detail page for the full record. The default window is short, which flatters strategies that got lucky recently.
Switch the window first
Pick 90 days or longer. Short-window winners are often just lucky.
Check the curve and drawdown
Smooth growth beats spikes. Skip anything with only a few data days.
Open the detail page
See the Trader’s performance. “Public config” badges also expose full parameters, positions, and order history.
How do you copy a strategy from the leaderboard?
Click One-click copy on any card or detail page. Strategies with a “public config” badge can be created immediately; for private ones, hit Create similar strategy to start from the same template and configure it yourself. What transfers is the parameter set, never the past performance.
- One-click copy: name it, pick your connection, done—it starts immediately.
- Copy parameters, create manually: enter the create flow pre-filled and tweak first.
- Private config? Create similar strategy opens the same template for you to configure.
Full walkthrough: Copy from the Leaderboard.
You copy parameters, not returns. Market phases change—identical parameters can produce different results. Use a paper connection for your first copy.
Is a leaderboard strategy worth copying?
Judge it on four things before you copy: how many days of data back the record, the shape of the equity curve, the deepest drawdown, and whether the trade frequency matches what you want to run. A high ROI that fails any of these is not worth the position.
| Check | Bar |
|---|---|
| Data days | 90+ is more credible |
| Curve shape | Steady growth > one big candle |
| Drawdown | Imagine the deepest dip right after you copy |
| Trade frequency | Does the 24h count match your expectations? |
What are the red flags on any copy-trading leaderboard?
Four signals should stop you on any platform’s leaderboard: a headline built on a short ROI window, ROI quoted without drawdown, paper results presented as live, and a history you cannot open and audit. They apply everywhere—AlphaFox just makes them checkable, because each ranked strategy links to a public detail page with its full performance record:
- Short-window ROI as the headline. A +60% week means little; switch to 90d/180d/365d windows (available on every AlphaFox trader detail page) before judging.
- ROI without drawdown. Two strategies with identical ROI can differ wildly in the dip you’d have to sit through. Always read them together.
- Paper results presented as live. Paper validates behavior, not real fills and fees. AlphaFox labels every ranked strategy paper or live—if a leaderboard elsewhere doesn’t say which, assume paper.
- Unverifiable history. If you can’t open a strategy’s full record, you can’t audit the ROI claim. Every AlphaFox ranking links to a public trader page you can inspect before copying.
How do you get your own strategy on the leaderboard?
Listing is opt-in. In My strategies, hit Share on your Trader and enable “Share strategy details”. Others can then see and copy it from the leaderboard.
