Cross-asset risk aggregation
Risk limits that span all assets
Risk controls aggregate exposure across your Alpaca account and all crypto exchanges. Set maximum portfolio allocation at 60 percent equities and 40 percent crypto with individual position caps at 8 percent per stock and 12 percent per coin. When any limit approaches the threshold, automation pauses new entries or triggers defensive exits ensuring neither asset class exceeds your tolerance. You might configure a rule that reduces crypto exposure from 40 percent to 30 percent when overall portfolio volatility exceeds 25 percent annualized while simultaneously increasing stable equity positions.
Multi-asset execution layer
Behind the interface, the execution layer routes orders to Alpaca for equities and to Binance, Coinbase or Kraken for crypto based on your rule definitions. The system manages API rate limits at 10 requests per second per venue, handles order acknowledgments within 200 milliseconds and retries failed requests automatically with exponential backoff. You define the what and when while infrastructure handles routing across different venue types with different APIs.
