5-step onboarding walkthrough

The 5 steps at a glance

1. Sign up / Welcome
2. Pick an Alpha
3. Connect your exchange
4. Choose a plan + pay
5. Integration (~24h)

Step 1 - Sign up / Welcome

Create your AlphaSet account with email, or sign in quickly with Google / Apple. No password needed - you sign in via a link sent to your email or through your social account.

Step 2 - Pick an Alpha

Choose an Alpha that fits your risk appetite and capital:

• Alpha Crypto (🟡 Medium) - long/short Top 100 crypto, minimum $500, on BingX, Bybit or Hyperliquid.
• Alpha Stock VN (🟡 Medium) - cash equities + VN30F1M derivatives, minimum 75M VND, via DNSE.
• Coming soon Alphas (Gold, Funding) appear dimmed and aren't selectable yet.

Step 3 - Connect your exchange

How you connect depends on the Alpha:

• Alpha Crypto (BingX / Bybit): paste an API key manually (BingX also offers automatic OAuth). The API needs trade permission only, with withdrawal turned OFF. AlphaSet verifies the key's permissions. See [[connect-bingx]] / [[connect-bybit]].
• Alpha Crypto (Hyperliquid): create an API Wallet on Hyperliquid, then paste your Web3 Wallet Address + API Wallet Address + Private Key. The API Wallet is trade-only and cannot withdraw. See [[connect-hyperliquid]].
• Alpha Stock VN (DNSE): sign a trading authorization (SACO) right inside the Entrade X app. You do not create or share any API key. This is the legally compliant non-custodial method under UBCKNN Circular 09/2023.

Step 4 - Choose a plan + pay

• Pick Air / Plus / Pro / Max. Toggle annual for 53% off.
• There's a referral code field (the referred user gets +200 points after their first subscription payment).
• Your first monthly subscription gets a 37-day bonus (30+7).
• No free trial - payment is required to start.

🖼️ [IMAGE PLACEHOLDER] Plan-selection screen: 4 columns Air/Plus/Pro/Max (Pro tagged ⭐ "Recommended"), Monthly/Annual (−53%) toggle, referral code field, "Pay" button.

Step 5 - Integration (~24h)

• After payment, AlphaSet begins integrating your account.
• This takes about 24 hours - you'll see a progress bar on your dashboard.
• When ready, you get an email notification and the Engine starts trading per your chosen Alpha.

After you're done

The Engine runs 24/7. Track PnL / APR / Max DD and your Alpha's status (🟢 Running / 🟡 Pausing / 🔴 Off) right on the dashboard.
