Every order submitted through Pacifica Lens carries a 0.02**% builder fee** tagged to the PACIFICALENS builder code. This fee is applied automatically by the Pacifica protocol at the time of order execution — there is nothing extra you need to configure. The fee is on top of your standard Pacifica maker or taker fee.
Before your first order through Pacifica Lens, the app will prompt you to sign a one-time Builder Code approval transaction. This transaction registers the PACIFICALENS builder code with your wallet on-chain, enabling builder attribution for all subsequent orders.You only need to approve this once per wallet. After approval, all future orders — including auto-copy trades — are submitted instantly without another approval prompt.
An Agent Key is a delegated signing key that allows Pacifica Lens to submit orders on your behalf without requiring a manual wallet approval for each trade. Agent Keys are required for auto copy trading — they enable the automated engine to open and close positions automatically when a watched trader’s position changes.To get an Agent Key:
  1. Go to Pacifica.fi and open Account Settings.
  2. Generate a new Agent Key pair.
  3. Copy the private key and paste it into the Agent Key field in the Pacifica Lens copy-trading panel.
For manual copy trading (the Open Trade button in the trader detail drawer), an Agent Key is not required — your connected wallet signs each order directly.
Your Agent Key private key is stored only in your browser’s local storage and is never transmitted to any server, including Pacifica Lens servers. All order signing happens locally in your browser.Because it is stored in local storage, the key exists only in the browser where you pasted it. Clearing your browser data will remove it and you will need to paste it again.
The Trader Score is a proprietary 0–100 composite score that Pacifica Lens calculates for every trader on the AlphaBoard. It is built from eight weighted components:
ComponentMax pointsWhat it measures
PnL20Percentile rank of 30-day PnL versus all active traders
Consistency20Alignment between 7-day and 30-day momentum
EPR15Exposure Profit Ratio — PnL relative to open interest
Win Rate15Long-term PnL-to-volume efficiency
Drawdown10Recent loss control versus overall gains
Track Record10All-time PnL size and long-term profitability
OI Risk5Open interest relative to equity (high leverage penalized)
Capital Efficiency530-day PnL relative to current equity
Tier thresholds are dynamic and percentile-based: S = top 5%, A = top 20%, B = top 45%, C = everyone else. Traders with zero 30-day volume automatically receive a score of 0.
The auto copy trading engine checks each watched trader’s positions every 10 seconds. When a new position is detected, the engine opens the same trade on your account immediately using your Agent Key. When a trader closes or partially reduces a position, the engine mirrors that change proportionally on your account.
Yes. The Open Trade button in the trader detail drawer lets you manually copy any open position from any trader on the AlphaBoard. You can set your own margin, leverage, stop loss, take profit, and order type (market or limit), and the order is signed by your connected wallet directly.Manual copy trading does not require an Agent Key. Only the fully automated auto copy trading feature requires one.
The arbitrage scanner compares funding rates across four exchanges simultaneously:
  • Pacifica (the primary exchange)
  • dYdX
  • HyperLiquid
  • Aster
For each market available on multiple exchanges, the scanner shows the funding spread per 8-hour period, an annualized APR, and which exchange to go long and which to go short to capture the spread delta-neutrally.
Mark prices, funding rates, open interest, and 24-hour volume update approximately every 30 seconds. Liquidation events are delivered in near-real time as they occur. Order book data refreshes each time you open a market detail panel.
