Copy a Hyperliquid trader from your own account
Pick one trader from a short, hand-kept list. Set how much to allocate and where it must stop. Helmsman then places the matching orders in your own Hyperliquid account — it never holds your funds and cannot withdraw them.
In private testing: the trading engine is not live yet. The console you can open today shows sample data and nothing is traded. These pages describe how Helmsman is built to work.
You set the course. It holds it.
Your account, your funds
Orders go out under a trading key you approve on Hyperliquid. The key can place and cancel orders. It cannot withdraw, transfer or approve anything else, and you can revoke it at any time.
Limits that act on their own
An allocation, a leverage cap, a per-market cap and a drawdown stop. A separate process checks them every few seconds and cancels or reduces without waiting for anyone.
One fee, stated as money
0.03% of what Helmsman trades for you — $3.00 per $10,000. Your console always shows fees paid next to your trading result.
How copying works here
Helmsman does not replay a trader’s orders one by one. It watches the trader’s positions and keeps yours in the same proportion to the amount you allocated. If the trader holds 2 ETH on a $100,000 account and you allocate $5,000, your target is 0.1 ETH.
Each market you follow uses isolated margin, so a liquidation on one position cannot reach the rest of your account. Positions the trader already held before you started are left alone unless you ask otherwise.
What it will not do
- It will not hold, move or withdraw your funds. They stay in your Hyperliquid account.
- It will not promise a result. The traders on the list are described by facts — markets, turnover, start date — not by adjectives.
- It will not keep trading when you say stop. Pause stops new positions; Stop also cancels open orders.
