Copy trade: their trades, your size, your exits

Point the engine at a wallet and it mirrors that trader's buys and sells automatically — sized to your setting, around the clock, with a sell button on every position it opens for you.

Copy trade does two things and nothing else, by design. You add a wallet and set a size; from then on the engine watches that wallet on-chain and mirrors its activity with your funds — they buy, you buy; they sell, you sell. And every position the engine opens for you sits in a positions list with a sell button on it, because a copied entry you can't leave is a trap.

The engine runs whether you're watching or not

Mirroring happens on the 24/7 server engine — the same machinery the auto-buy orders ride — so a target's 4am sell mirrors while you're asleep rather than waiting for you to open the page. Your per-trade size is the one control that matters most: the engine applies it to every mirrored buy, so a whale's flyer lands in your book at your scale, not theirs.

What the page won't do for you

The copy decision — which wallet, how much — is the entire risk, and the page can't make it. Leaderboard PnL is farmable; a wallet whose wins depend on launch-speed entries you structurally can't match will mirror its worst fills into your book. Vet like you mean it: watch the wallet live for days, look for the deployer pattern, and start with a size that can fail safely. The mechanics of how copiers get hurt are in how copy trading works on Solana.

The exit that matters: a copied buy without a mirrored sell leaves you holding a position the trader already exited — on memecoins, that's the whole loss. Keep your own sell button honest: every position the engine opens can be closed by you, whether or not the target's exit ever mirrors.

Copy a wallet with your size and your exits

Mirror buys and sells around the clock at your configured size — and vet the wallet with the scanner before you fund it.

Frequently asked

How does HostDeFi copy trading work?

Add a wallet and set a per-trade size — the engine watches that wallet on-chain and mirrors its buys and sells with your funds, 24/7. Positions it opens appear in a list with your own sell button.

Does copy trading run while I'm offline?

Yes — mirroring runs on the 24/7 server engine, so a target's overnight trades mirror while you're asleep rather than waiting for the page to be open.

What's the biggest risk in copy trading?

The wallet you pick — leaderboard track records can be farmed, and wallets winning on launch-speed entries mirror fills you can't match. Vet candidates live for days before funding anything.

Can I exit a copied position myself?

Yes — every position the engine opens carries a sell button, so an exit never depends on the target's sell being mirrored. On memecoins that independence is the real safety net.
