Profile Management:

cc-liquid profile list
cc-liquid profile show
cc-liquid profile use <name>

Agent Wallets (Recommended for automation):

• Use separate agent keys per bot for nonce isolation
• Approve agent in Hyperliquid UI, then add private key to .env
• Never use agent address for Info queries (use owner/vault)

Usage

# Account info
cc-liquid account

# Download predictions
cc-liquid download-crowdcent -o predictions.parquet
cc-liquid download-numerai -o predictions.parquet

# Rebalance portfolio
cc-liquid rebalance

# View open orders
cc-liquid orders

# Cancel open orders
cc-liquid cancel-orders                  # Cancel all
cc-liquid cancel-orders --coin BTC       # Cancel specific coin

# Apply stop losses to positions
cc-liquid apply-stops                    # Apply to configured sides
cc-liquid apply-stops --set portfolio.stop_loss.sides=both  # Override

cc-liquid history --days 7               # Last 7 days
cc-liquid history --start 2025-01-01     # Date range

# Continuous rebalancing (WARNING: auto-executes)
cc-liquid run --skip-confirm

Configuration Overrides

Use --set to override any config value at runtime:

# Data source (auto-applies column mappings)
--set data.source=numerai      # → date, symbol, meta_model columns
--set data.source=crowdcent    # → release_date, id columns
--set data.path=custom.parquet

# Portfolio
--set portfolio.num_long=15
--set portfolio.num_short=8
--set portfolio.target_leverage=2.0

# Stop Loss
--set portfolio.stop_loss.sides=both        # Enable on both sides
--set portfolio.stop_loss.pct=0.15          # 15% from entry
--set portfolio.stop_loss.slippage=0.05     # 5% slippage tolerance

# Execution
--set execution.slippage_tolerance=0.01      # Market order aggressiveness
--set execution.limit_price_offset=0.003     # Limit order passive offset (0 = mid)
--set execution.order_type=limit             # market or limit
--set execution.time_in_force=Gtc            # Ioc, Gtc, or Alo

# Environment
--set is_testnet=true

Example combinations:

cc-liquid rebalance --set data.source=numerai --set portfolio.num_long=20 --set portfolio.target_leverage=2.0

Order Types & Execution

Order Types:

• market - Uses slippage_tolerance to price away from mid for aggressive fills (default: 0.005)
• limit - Uses limit_price_offset to price at or inside mid for passive maker orders (default: 0.0 = exact mid)

Pricing Behavior:

• slippage_tolerance: Market orders - buy ABOVE mid, sell BELOW mid (worse price, guaranteed fill)
• limit_price_offset: Limit orders - buy BELOW mid, sell ABOVE mid (better price, may not fill)
  • 0.0 = exact mid (default, current behavior)
  • 0.002 = 0.2% inside mid (passive maker)
  • 0.005 = 0.5% inside mid (more aggressive passive)

Time-in-Force (TIF):

• Ioc (Immediate or Cancel) - Fills what it can immediately, cancels rest. No orders stay on book. (default)
• Gtc (Good til Canceled) - Orders stay on book until filled or manually canceled
• Alo (Add Liquidity Only) - Only posts to book, never takes liquidity

Order Status:

• Filled - Order executed immediately ✅
• Resting - Order posted to book and waiting (Gtc/Alo only) ✅
• Failed - Order rejected or not filled ❌

# Use limit orders at exact mid (default)
cc-liquid rebalance --set execution.order_type=limit --set execution.time_in_force=Gtc

# Use limit orders with passive offset (inside mid)
cc-liquid rebalance --set execution.order_type=limit --set execution.time_in_force=Gtc --set execution.limit_price_offset=0.002

# Note: limit orders with Ioc (default TIF) may not fill if priced at or inside mid
# Recommended to use Gtc or Alo with limit orders

# Check what's on the book
cc-liquid orders

# Cancel orders before rebalancing
cc-liquid rebalance --cancel-open-orders

Managing Open Orders with Gtc:

When using Gtc, unfilled orders stay on the book and may conflict with rebalancing:

# Option 1: Auto-cancel before rebalancing
cc-liquid rebalance --cancel-open-orders

# Option 2: Manual management
cc-liquid orders                    # Check open orders
cc-liquid cancel-orders             # Cancel all
cc-liquid rebalance                 # Will prompt if orders found

# Option 3: Cancel specific coins
cc-liquid cancel-orders --coin BTC

Batch Execution:

• All orders are submitted in a single batch for efficiency
• Reduces network latency and improves throughput
• Better execution coordination across multiple trades

How It Works

1. Download Metamodel: Fetches consolidated predictions from CrowdCent or Numerai
2. Select Assets: Identifies top N longs and bottom N shorts based on 10-day predictions
3. Calculate Positions: Determines target sizes based on account value and leverage
4. Generate Trades: Calculates required trades from current to target positions
5. Execute Orders: Submits orders in batch with configured order type and time-in-force
   • Properly handles size precision (szDecimals) and price precision (tick size)
   • Distinguishes between filled orders and resting orders (for Gtc/Alo)

Backtesting & Optimization

cc-liquid includes backtesting and optimization tools to test strategies on historical data:

cc-liquid analyze                    # Run backtest with current config
cc-liquid optimize                   # Find optimal parameters via grid search

⚠️ BACKTESTING DISCLAIMER ⚠️

Past performance does not predict future results. Backtesting has inherent limitations:

• Results are hypothetical and may not reflect real trading conditions
• Optimized parameters are prone to overfitting
• Market conditions, liquidity, and execution costs change over time
• Always validate with out-of-sample data and paper trading before live deployment

See full documentation for details.

Future Enhancements

• Neutralize to known risk factors
• Unequal-weight position sizing
• Advanced portfolio optimization
