The return column reflects each strategy’s own position sizing (some hold only a small slice of one coin), so Sharpe, which isn’t affected by leverage, is the fair way to rank them. 3 strategies that rank coins against each other (like funding carry and momentum ranking) can't run on a single asset, so they're left out.
Nothing cleared our bar on AVAX, but Supertrend came closest (Sharpe 0.91). The library version trades a basket of coins. To run it on AVAX alone, fork it and pick AVAX as its only coin. Then see if you can push it further.
At $1,000, Supertrend's worst historical dip on AVAX alone was about $112. Free account, your own keys. Keel only places the trades.
Avalanche trading bot on Hyperliquid
Any strategy on this page can be your Avalanche trading bot, running on your own Hyperliquid account, but none clearly worked on AVAX in our tests. Supertrend came closest. If you still want to run a Avalanche bot, fork it, pick AVAX as its only coin, change the rules and backtest it until the result holds up.
Paper trade it first on live prices, which needs no wallet. When you go live, Keel trades from your own Hyperliquid account through an agent wallet that can place trades but can never withdraw, so your money stays in your account, and you can pause the bot or revoke its access at any time.
What this is: a single-asset backtest of 12 systematic strategies on AVAX, on real Hyperliquid data, net of fees, slippage and funding. A high Sharpe on a low trade count is a small sample, not a promise. Where nothing clears the bar, we say so. Past performance does not predict future results, and this is not investment advice.
