Choose your seat. Learn the rules.
Start with the experience you want: trade a larger wallet as a Trader, or fund one Trader as a Backer. These pages show the position workflow, settlement, controls and risks in the same direct style as the venues Arlo connects to.
START WITH THE ARLO IN NINE LINES
01
One Trader puts up $5,000. One Backer puts up $10,000.
02
All $15,000 is traded. Nothing is carved out at the start.
03
The Trader trades it on GMX, for up to thirty days.
04
Open positions share $4,000 of opening risk room, checked on chain at every order.
05
If the wallet reaches $11,000, every position closes and the Arlo ends there.
06
At the end the second person is paid $10,600, out of the wallet, first.
07
Arlo's $150 fee comes next, and only out of whatever is left.
08
The Trader keeps the rest, and owes nothing if there is none.
09
Nobody can change any of this once it starts. No owner, no pause, no upgrade.
This is the same nine lines a Trader reads and a Backer reads. Nothing is phrased one way for the person putting the money in and another way for the person spending it. Everything else in these docs explains how lines 04 to 07 are enforced.
WHERE TO READ MORE
The Trader seat
Trade up to three times the capital you fund, keep 100% of your upside, and manage the position from the chart and order builder.
The Backer seat
Fund one Trader, receive up to $10,600 when the wallet covers the claim, and see the payment order before you join.
How an Arlo works
Follow the cycle from funding and matching to live trading, early settlement and the fixed waterfall.
The controls around an Arlo
See the stop, shared opening room, terminal halt, wallet lock and settlement waterfall in the order they act.
Security and the code
The deployed addresses, what the code cannot do and how to check each one yourself, and what is designed but not yet deployed.
Where the trading happens
How GMX executes orders, what it charges, and which costs Arlo cannot control.
What an order costs
Every number on the order screen explained, with one order worked through line by line.
FAQ
Funding, matching, position building, settlement, the two seats and the questions people ask before they start.
Risks
Every binding figure in one table, and the full risk disclosure for both seats.
WHERE THE NUMBERS COME FROM
There is one Arlo size at launch: $15,000, funded $5,000 by the Trader and $10,000 by the Backer. Every dollar figure in these docs is derived from that single definition rather than typed in, so a page cannot quietly disagree with another one. Where a number here differs from what the deployed contracts do, Security says so explicitly rather than letting the docs run ahead.
