How to Set Up an Auto Copy Bot on Polycopy
Step-by-step guide to setting up an Auto Copy bot on Polycopy. Pick a trader, choose a risk preset, configure your rules, and the bot mirrors their qualifying trades 24/7.
Go to the Bots page
Navigate to the Bots section in Polycopy (polycopy.app/v2/bots). You'll need a Premium subscription ($30/mo) to activate Auto Copy bots. Free users can preview the setup flow.
Select a trader to copy
Click "New Bot" and choose a trader from the leaderboard or your followed list. Review their recent performance, category focus, and trade frequency. A trader who makes 5–15 trades per week is ideal for Auto Copy.
Choose a risk preset
Pick from four presets: Conservative (high Copy Score floor of 75+, small positions), Moderate (balanced), Aggressive (lower Score floor of 50+, larger positions), or No Filter (broadest follow, Copy Score floor at 0). You can customize any preset afterward.
Set your budget rules
Configure per-trade cap (max $ per copied trade), daily budget (max $ per day across all copies), and optionally a total budget limit. These prevent runaway spending regardless of what the trader does.
Activate the bot
Review your configuration summary and click "Activate." The bot is now live — it monitors the trader's activity and copies qualifying trades within your rules. You'll receive notifications for each executed copy.
