Copy trading deposit limits, asset restrictions, and safety mechanisms
View Markdown ↗Copy trading includes several safeguards to protect copiers.
| Limit | Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum allocation | $50 | Per trader you copy |
| Maximum allocation | $100,000 | Per trader you copy |
These limits apply to the total allocation per copy profile -- your initial amount plus any funds you add later must stay within the range. If you're copying 3 different traders, each profile has its own $50–$100,000 range.
Partial withdrawals must leave at least $50 in the profile; otherwise withdraw everything, which stops the copy.
| Limit | Value |
|---|---|
| Minimum executable notional | Approximately $11.41 |
If a proportional order falls below the engine's minimum executable notional, it is skipped. The current threshold is approximately $11.41 and includes a safety buffer above Hyperliquid's minimum. This can happen when copying a trader with a much larger account -- very small percentage moves may not meet the minimum.
Your copy wallet mirrors the trader's leverage and margin mode (isolated or cross) exactly -- there's no separate leverage cap to set. Risk is controlled by your allocation size, since every position is scaled down proportionally to the amount you allocated.
Traders can charge a profit share of up to 20% on the gains they generate for you. The rate is shown before you start copying and locked in at that point -- a later rate change by the trader doesn't affect your existing copy.
It applies only to winning trades and is charged when a winning copied position closes. Positions that close at a loss incur no profit share.
Orders executed from a copy wallet carry a 0.10% Legend builder fee, in addition to Hyperliquid's applicable trading fee. The builder fee is charged on copied order execution and is separate from any profit share charged on winning copied positions.
To limit fleet-wide concentration, total copy trading exposure to any one asset is capped at 5% of its open interest. An asset is not excluded solely because it is below a fixed open-interest threshold. If copiers would collectively exceed the cap, new copied exposure is scaled down to fit or skipped when no capacity remains.
These restrictions are evaluated in real-time for each order.
By default, a trader's already-open positions are not mirrored when you start copying. This prevents you from entering a trade mid-way -- for example, being on the wrong side if the trader sells an existing long. The trader's original stake in an asset is never copied; if they add to a pre-existing position after you start, only the added portion is mirrored proportionally.
This is the Only copy newly opened positions toggle, on by default. Turn it off at setup if you'd rather also mirror the trader's current open positions.
You can withdraw from an active copy at any time:
Withdrawals are sent back to your main wallet automatically. If most of your balance is deployed in open positions, the transfer completes as soon as the funds are freed up.
When you stop copying a trader:
