Principal risks
- Loss of capital. Crypto perpetual futures are leveraged, and prices can move 20–30% in a few hours. Exchanges can liquidate positions, fail, suspend withdrawals or change their rules.
- Copy results differ from the lead account. Your fills, fees, funding and timing will differ from ours, and so will your returns. The smaller the copy, the larger the gap, mainly because of exchange minimum order sizes.
- Stop orders can slip. In a fast or gapping market a stop can fill well beyond its trigger price.
- Operational risk. The bot, its server or an exchange connection can fail. Monitoring and automatic limits are in place and will not catch every failure.
- Strategy risk. Trend following has had long losing periods in every market it has been applied to. Rules fitted to 2021–2026 data may not perform the same way in future.
Basis of the figures on this site
- Backtest. Hypothetical results from applying the rules to past data. The rules were chosen after that data was available, and nobody earned these returns. Inputs are Binance 4-hour candles and a cost of 0.07% per unit traded. Research notes exclude funding unless they say otherwise; the headline tear sheet also deducts Binance's historical funding payments.
- DEMO accounts trade on the exchange's demo platform. Orders pass through the exchange's own order handling, but the capital is simulated, and so is any market impact it would have.
- PAPER accounts simulate fills at live prices. No orders are sent. Every paper fill is charged as a taker (exchange fee plus 0.02% slippage); maker fills are never simulated.
- LIVE accounts trade real money. None is running yet.
- A record of a few weeks carries little statistical weight for a strategy that holds trends for weeks or months.
Not advice
Nothing on this site is financial, investment, legal or tax advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell or copy anything. It takes no account of any reader's circumstances. Make your own decision, and consult a qualified adviser if in doubt.
Jurisdiction
Crypto derivatives, copy trading and some exchanges are restricted or prohibited in a number of countries. Checking that you may lawfully use them is your responsibility. Nothing on this site is an offer to anyone in a jurisdiction where it would be unlawful.
How we would be paid
- Referral commissions. No referral link is published on this site. A link marked as a referral link would pay us a share of the trading fees of accounts opened through it, with the account holder's fees unchanged.
- Profit shares. As lead of a Binance copy-trading portfolio or a Hyperliquid vault, we would receive a share of copiers' or depositors' profits, charged only on profit and set under the exchange's rules. Copy trading is closed and will not open before the live record covers at least 90 days and passes its review.
- Every account shown here runs the same strategy. We do not sell signals, courses or subscriptions.
