Copying a Hyperliquid trader from a Telegram chat
StratiDex copies a Hyperliquid trader in two ways from Telegram: you paste the address and replicate one of that trader's open positions at their own size, or you follow the address and every move is mirrored to a share of your equity. Every copied action is notified in the chat, and a follow stops in one tap. A copied order costs what a manual one costs — our 9 bp commission, plus 4.5 bp of Hyperliquid taker fee on a native market and 9 bp on most HIP-3 markets — and nothing is taken from your gains.

Two ways to copy a trader on StratiDex
Everything starts with a Hyperliquid address pasted into the chat. Two things can follow. You replicate one of that address's open positions once, at the trader's size, or you follow the address and let each of its moves be mirrored in proportion to your equity. Both run on your own Hyperliquid account, created in the conversation under your name, with the private key exportable at any time. Orders are placed with a Hyperliquid agent key: the protocol lets that key open, close and read a position, never withdraw funds. Withdrawals themselves pass through StratiDex servers — that is the trust point, and it is stated openly on stratidex.io/security.
| Manual copy of one position | Proportional auto-follow | |
|---|---|---|
| What triggers an order | You tap, once | Every action the address takes |
| Size | The trader's own size | A share of your equity that you set |
| Leverage | The one you set, 2× by default, capped by the market | The trader's, capped by the market |
| Notifications | The usual confirmation screen before you validate | One message per copied action |
| Stopping it | Nothing runs after the order | One tap |
| StratiDex fee | 9 bp of volume per executed order | 9 bp of volume per copied order |
| Profit share taken from you | None | None |
The manual copy is not scaled to your balance: it takes the position as it exists on-chain. A trader carrying 30,000 USDC of BTC produces a 30,000 USDC order on your account, and your own balance and leverage have to carry it. The confirmation screen shows the exact liquidation price and the total cost before you validate — read it. If you want the size adjusted to your balance instead, that is what the proportional follow is for.
Starting a follow, and stopping it
- Paste the trader's Hyperliquid address into the chat.
- Choose the proportional follow rather than the one-off copy.
- Set the share of your equity each copied position uses.
- Confirm. The follow applies the trader's leverage, bounded by the market's real cap — 40× on BTC, 20× on NVDA, 50× on some markets.
- Read the messages as they arrive.
- Tap stop when you want it to end.
Every action the follow takes reaches you as a message in the conversation, one message per copied action: an entry, a change of size, an exit.
Stopping the follow stops new copied orders. What is already open stays your position to manage: the bot has no stop-loss, no take-profit and no automatic protection, so nothing closes it for you. A price alert is a message, not an order.
What copying does not transfer
A public position is the visible end of a private decision. Four things stay with the trader when you copy it.
- Entry timing. They may have opened six hours ago, on a pullback. Your order fills at the current price, with the current spread. The same position is not the same trade.
- Size relative to capital. 5,000 USDC is a tenth of one account and the whole of another. Copying the size copies neither the exposure nor the pressure.
- Risk tolerance. They know where they will cut and how much they can afford to lose. That plan is not written in the position, so it is not copied.
- The reason. The position may hedge something else they hold, be one leg of a spread, or be an inventory they are unwinding. On-chain it all looks like a directional bet.
You copy decisions, not results. A follow reproduces what an address does, after it does it. Their result depends on their entry, their sizing and their exit; yours depends on yours, on your fill price and on your fees. A copied trade can lose money exactly like one you placed yourself.
Costs apply to every copied order
A copied order is a real order and pays what a manual one pays: 9 bp of volume to StratiDex, plus the market's own taker fee. No subscription, no cut of gains. An address that turns positions over quickly makes you pay this on every leg.
| Market | StratiDex | Market taker fee | Cost per order |
|---|---|---|---|
| Native Hyperliquid — 177 markets | 9 bp | 4.5 bp | 9 bp + 4.5 bp |
| HIP-3 at a 100% deployer share — 127 of 128 | 9 bp | 9 bp | 9 bp + 9 bp |
| HIP-3 at a 50% share — 1 market (para) | 9 bp | 6.75 bp | 9 bp + 6.75 bp |
| Native, through an invite link | 8.1 bp | 4.5 bp | 8.1 bp + 4.5 bp |
Add the spread. Counting both legs at market, a round trip pays our 9 bp commission twice and the Hyperliquid taker fee twice — 4.5 bp per leg on a native market, 9 bp on a HIP-3 market at a 100% share — before spread. Other numbers worth having: deposits are USDC on Arbitrum One only and are credited from 5 USDC, the minimum order is $11, a withdrawal to Arbitrum costs $1 charged by Hyperliquid, and a transfer to another Hyperliquid account is free. The real taker fee of each market is published market by market in stratidex.io/data/markets.json (open data, CC BY 4.0), and the fee page is stratidex.io/pricing.
Reading an address before you follow it
StratiDex ranks nobody and recommends nobody: there is no leaderboard, no score, no selection made on your behalf. You choose the address, and what you get to see of it is what Hyperliquid makes public — positions, not an audited track record.
- How many markets it trades. A single ticker is a single idea, and that idea is what you would be copying.
- How long its positions stay open. Minutes and days are two different businesses, and a follow copies the rhythm as much as the direction — every leg pays our 9 bp plus the venue's taker fee.
- The leverage in use. A follow applies it, up to the market's cap. At 40×, the margin behind a position is 2.5% of its size.
- The size relative to what the account holds. A position that is most of the equity leaves no room for a second idea.
- Which markets. The same rhythm costs more on a HIP-3 market: the venue takes 9 bp per order instead of 4.5 on a native one, on top of our 9 bp.
- What you cannot see at all — the plan behind the position, and whether what is open today says anything about the rest.
Then start small. $20 to $50 is enough to watch the mechanism run — the notifications, the fills, the fees coming out. Keep the minimum order in mind: a small share of a small equity can land under $11, and then there is nothing to place.
Leverage, liquidation and the limits to know
StratiDex opens at 2× by default and never offers a leverage a market does not allow: the bot reads each market's real cap before showing a button. A follow applies the trader's leverage, bounded by that cap. On a manual copy, the confirmation screen shows the exact liquidation price and the cost before you validate.
- No stop-loss, no take-profit, no automatic protection anywhere in the bot.
- Some markets accept isolated margin only; most accept cross or isolated.
- The account is yours: created in the chat on Hyperliquid under your name, with the private key exportable at any time.
- Withdrawals pass through StratiDex servers. That is the trust point, and it is stated on stratidex.io/security.
- No identity document is asked for, and Hyperliquid's restricted jurisdictions still apply. Check what is legal where you are — stratidex.io/risks.
FAQ
Can you copy trade on Hyperliquid from Telegram?
Yes. In @stratidex_bot you paste a Hyperliquid address, then either copy one of its open positions once at the trader's own size, or start a proportional follow that mirrors every move to a share of your equity. Each copied action is notified in the chat and the follow stops in one tap.
Does StratiDex take a share of copy trading profits?
No. The only charge is 9 bp of volume per executed order, or 8.1 bp for life if you arrived through an invite link. There is no subscription and no performance fee on a follow.
How much does one copied trade cost?
9 bp for StratiDex plus 4.5 bp of Hyperliquid taker fee on a native market. The venue fee rises to 9 bp on a HIP-3 market whose deployer takes a 100% fee share, which is 127 of the 128 HIP-3 markets. Add the spread, and count the cost again on the exit.
How do I stop following a trader?
One tap in the conversation. It stops new copied orders; positions already open stay on your account until you close them yourself. There is no stop-loss in the bot, so nothing closes them for you.
What does copy trading not copy?
The entry timing, the size relative to the trader's capital, their risk tolerance and their reason for the trade. You copy a decision after it has been taken, filled at your price and with your fees. Results are not transferable, and a copied trade can lose money like any other.
How much do I need to start copying?
Deposits are USDC on Arbitrum One and are credited from 5 USDC, and the minimum order is $11. $20 to $50 is enough to run a first follow and see the notifications and the 9 bp for real — bearing in mind that a small share of a small equity can fall under the $11 minimum.
