Start with how the wallet makes money
Do not rely only on headline PnL. After opening the details page, first understand where the PnL came from:- Is it long-term repeatable trading, or one or two large wins?
- Does it follow momentum, or does it average into losing positions?
- Does it trade major markets, or high-volatility alts?
- Are exits disciplined?
- Does it lose control after taking losses?
Read the wallet profile
The details page also shows wallet profile tags so you can quickly understand the wallet’s trading style.- Account size: categorizes current position exposure, such as Whale, Shark, Dolphin, or Fish.
- Market preference: shows whether the wallet mainly trades majors, alts, TradFi markets, or a mix.
- Directional bias: shows whether the wallet leans long, short, or balanced.
- Holding period: shows whether the wallet tends to scalp, trade short-term, or hold longer.
- Performance markers: highlight notable win rate, consistency, or trading activity.

Check current positions
Current positions directly affect whether it is reasonable to follow now. Focus on:- market or contract
- position size
- leverage
- unrealized PnL
- entry price versus current mark price
- whether the position already has large unrealized profit or loss
Check historical trades
Historical trades show whether the wallet has repeatable trading behavior. Review:- whether profits came from many trades
- whether losses were cut in time
- whether it frequently chases moves
- whether it flips direction too often
- whether it only performed well in one market regime
Check risk metrics
High return does not mean the wallet is suitable to follow. Also review:- maximum drawdown
- win rate
- trade count
- current leverage
- account size
- consistency between recent and long-term performance
Wallets that may not be suitable to follow
Be careful when you see:- very small account size with extremely high returns
- PnL mainly driven by one outsized trade
- current positions already in large unrealized profit
- frequent high-leverage or full-size trades
- deep drawdown
- sudden recent change in trading style
- trading logic that you cannot understand
What to do after the details page
You do not need to copy trade immediately after reviewing a wallet. A safer workflow is:- Add the wallet to favorites.
- Apply labels that record why it is interesting.
- Watch it for a few days to see whether the style remains consistent.
- If it still fits, test with a small copy trading allocation.
