How Copy Trading Works

Automatically mirror the trades of top-performing wallets in real time.

Overview

Copy trading lets you follow a wallet address and automatically replicate its trades. When the target wallet opens a position, the bot opens the same position for you. When they close, you close.

This is ideal if you want to follow experienced traders without manually monitoring the markets yourself.

Setting Up Copy Trading

1

Find a trader to copy

Use /toptraders to browse the leaderboard and find wallets with strong track records. Or, if you already have a wallet address, skip to the next step.

2

Start copying

Send /copy and paste the wallet address you want to follow. The bot will start monitoring that wallet for new trades.

3

Configure trade size and order type

Choose how the bot sizes each copied trade — either a fixed USDC amount or a percentage of the target's position size. Then select whether copies execute as market or limit orders.

4

Confirm and go

Confirm to activate. The bot will automatically execute trades whenever your target opens or closes a position.

Balance requirement
Make sure you have enough USDC deposited to cover copied trades. If your balance is insufficient when a trade triggers, the copy will be skipped.

Trade Size Options

When setting up a copy, you choose how the bot sizes each copied trade:

Fixed Amount

Every copied trade uses the same USDC amount regardless of the target's trade size. For example, set $25 and every copy will open a $25 position.

Percentage

Each copied trade is sized as a percentage of the target's position. For example, set 50% and if the target opens a $100 position, the bot opens a $50 position for you.

Order Types

Copied trades can be executed as either market or limit orders:

  • Market orders — Execute immediately at the best available price. Fast but may have slight price differences from the target's entry.
  • Limit orders — Execute at the target's exact entry price or better. May not fill if the price moves away before execution.

How Copies Execute

  • The bot monitors target wallets continuously for new trades
  • When a new position is detected, the bot opens the same trade for you
  • Slight price differences may occur due to execution timing
Copy trading risks
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Even top traders can have losing trades. Always manage your risk and never allocate more than you can afford to lose.
