Copy Trades
Monitor elite wallets. Mirror their swaps. Automate your trading.
📌 What Is Copy Trading?
Copy trading is a powerful feature that lets you automatically replicate the buy and sell actions of selected wallets. It's ideal for users who want to benefit from the strategies of experienced traders without constant manual effort. By following reputable wallets, you can automate your trades to align with proven market behaviors.
📥 How to Set Up
To get started, use the /copytrades command in EchoSol and open the Copy Trades dashboard.
Click on + Add Wallet to add a new wallet you wish to copy. You’ll be prompted to assign a name (tag or label) to this wallet for easier tracking, especially when managing multiple strategies. Then, paste the trader’s Solana wallet address. Make sure the address belongs to a wallet known for real, organic trading and not a sniper or custom trading bot, which can cause erratic results or failed trades.
⚙️ Copy Trade Options
You can choose to copy buy actions, sell actions, or both. Enabling Copy Sell means that whenever the selected wallet sells a token, your wallet will sell proportionally based on your holdings. For example, if they sell 50% of their holdings, your wallet will do the same (based on your own entry amounts).
For more control, you can use AutoSell (in /settings) instead of direct sell-copying. This feature allows you to automatically sell based on your own take-profit or risk-cut rules, giving you the benefit of signal-based buys with your own personalized exit logic.
⚙️ Trade Configuration
Set the buy and sell amounts to define how much capital you want to allocate per trade. You can choose a fixed SOL amount for each buy, and set the sell behavior — whether it's full, partial, or tied to AutoSell logic.
You’ll also find options to configure gas fees (priority fee or tip) and slippage tolerance. Setting a higher gas tip can help your trade execute faster, which is especially important if the wallet you’re copying is active during volatile market conditions. Adjust slippage to manage how much price movement you’re willing to tolerate between transaction creation and execution.
If you experience failed trades due to slippage, consider increasing your slippage by 3–5% increments until the trade executes, then lower it gradually by 1–2% to fine-tune.
🚫 Avoiding Risky Wallets
Not all wallets are suitable for copying. Avoid wallets known for:
Sniping: These bots execute hundreds of rapid transactions the moment a token launches, making it nearly impossible for your copied trade to match their entry timing. You'll end up buying late and likely become their exit liquidity.
Custom Programs: These are advanced or even malicious trading setups that your bot cannot interpret properly. They may fake transactions or use unsupported swap methods.
To check if a wallet is a sniper:
Look them up on Dexscreener, find the token they trade, and sort the transaction makers.
If they appear in the first 1–3 seconds of most tokens, it’s likely a sniper.
On Solscan, open their buy transaction. If you see
Interact with System Program, they’re using an unsupported custom method and cannot be copied.
🛠 Troubleshooting Tips
If a trade isn’t executing, verify that:
Copy Trade module is activated (click
+ Add).You’re not copying trades from Orca (direct) or Flux, which are not supported.
You’re not following a sniper or custom-program wallet.
If copy trades are delayed, check your gas tip setting. For fast and timely trades, a tip of 0.0075 SOL or more (Turbo Mode) is recommended. Also, make sure you’re not trying to copy a wallet that's faster than humanly possible.
🔍 Maintain and Review
Copy trading is not “set and forget.” Regularly review the performance of the wallets you’re copying. If their trades consistently lose value or show high-risk behavior, remove them and look for alternatives with proven, stable returns.
💡 Final Reminder
Always keep a sufficient SOL balance in your wallet.
You need SOL for:
Swapping tokens
Gas and priority fees
Covering slippage losses
Running low on SOL will result in failed or delayed trades — even if everything else is set up correctly.
