# Autocopy

> Automatically mirror a trader's positions

Autocopy continuously mirrors another trader's position changes in a dedicated copy wallet. When the trader opens, increases, reduces, or closes a position, Legend places a proportional order for you.

Unlike copying a single feed trade, Autocopy keeps following the trader until you stop it.

## Start Autocopy

1. Open the profile of the trader you want to copy.
2. Select **Copy Trade**.
3. Allocate between $50 and $100,000.
4. Review the trader's profit-share rate and whether existing positions should be copied.
5. Confirm to fund the dedicated copy wallet and begin mirroring.

Each trader you copy uses a separate Hyperliquid sub-wallet. Funds, positions, gains, and losses are isolated from your main trading wallet and from every other Autocopy profile.

## Proportional Sizing

Autocopy scales orders by the ratio between your copy wallet's value and the trader's account value.

For example, if a trader has $100,000 in equity and you allocate $1,000, your copy ratio is 1%. A new $20,000 position from that trader produces an approximately $200 position in your copy wallet.

The copy wallet mirrors the trader's direction, leverage, and margin mode. Actual fills can differ because of market movement, minimum order sizes, available liquidity, and fleet-wide exposure safeguards.

## Existing Positions

**Only copy newly opened positions** is enabled by default. With this setting on, positions the trader already held when Autocopy started are skipped. If the trader later adds to one of those positions, only the new portion is copied.

Turn the setting off during setup if you also want to mirror positions that are already open. This can enter a trade at a different price and stage than the trader, so review the positions before confirming.

## Profit Share

A trader can charge up to 20% of the profits generated by their copied trades. The exact rate is shown before you confirm and is locked for that Autocopy profile. Losing trades do not incur profit share.

## Manage or Stop

From an active Autocopy profile, you can:

* Add funds without exceeding the \$100,000 allocation limit
* Withdraw part of the wallet while leaving at least \$50 allocated
* Stop Autocopy and withdraw everything

Stopping closes every open copied position with market orders, returns the remaining USDC to your main wallet, and prevents further orders.

## Safeguards

* Orders below the engine's minimum executable notional are skipped.
* Total copied exposure to an asset is capped at 1% of that asset's open interest.
* New exposure is scaled down when needed to remain within the cap.
* Take-profit and stop-loss orders are not copied directly, but the resulting position reduction or close is mirrored when they execute for the trader.
