Finding Leaders to Follow

Search by Wallet Address

The primary way to find leaders is by their Hyperliquid wallet address:

  1. Go to Dashboard > Copy Trading (/dashboard/copy-trading)

  2. Enter the wallet address in the search box (e.g., 0x1234...abcd)

  3. Click Search

HyperSync will fetch the wallet's:

  • Current open positions

  • Recent trade history

  • Estimated performance metrics

How long positions stay open

Depends on your style

Risk Profile

  • Typical leverage: High leverage (>10x) = aggressive leader

  • Position concentration: Trading many assets vs. focused on 1-2

  • Drawdown history: Frequent large drawdowns suggest reckless trading

  • Consistency: Steady returns > occasional big wins

Red Flags

  • Very high leverage (>20x consistently)

  • Only a few trades (insufficient sample size)

  • Recent account creation (no track record)

  • Large, sudden drawdowns followed by recovery (martingale risk)
