Guide · Running a follow

Managing follows, and running several at once

Where your follows live, what pausing and stopping do, how several follows run side by side, and how the engine keeps your account aligned with each trader.

Your dashboard lists every follow you have, live and simulated, with what each one is currently holding and what it has produced. The History tab holds the record of the ones you have stopped, so a follow you end is archived rather than erased.

You can follow several traders at the same time. Each follow is its own unit: its own allocated balance, its own copy mode, its own stop loss and caps, its own position count. A limit reached on one follow does not touch the others.

There is one place where follows on the same wallet do meet each other, and that is the market itself. If one trader you follow is long a market and another one goes short the same market, the second order is blocked rather than sent. On Hyperliquid both would land in the same position on your account, so the result would belong to neither follow and neither trader's record would describe what you actually held. The trade is skipped for that reason and recorded as such.

If you want two follows to be able to take opposite sides of the same market, run them from separate wallets. One wallet per follow removes the conflict completely, and it also keeps each follow's results readable on their own.

Pause
Stops copying new trades. Positions you already hold stay open and stay yours to manage.
Stop
Ends the follow. Positions mirrored from that trader are closed, and the follow moves to History. A simulated follow is flattened the same way.
Change settings
Limits and caps can be edited while a follow is running. Changes apply to the next order, not retroactively.

You can always act on your own account directly on Hyperliquid, and the engine will not fight you over it. What it does is keep the mirrored side honest: it continuously compares the positions that hypeRank opened for you against what your follows should have produced, and corrects a difference rather than leaving a stray position behind. Reconciliation only ever acts on positions whose opening orders came from hypeRank. A position you opened yourself is not touched, because the engine can tell them apart.

That check runs in the background on a cooldown per position, so a transient mismatch cannot turn into a loop of orders. It is the reason a follow that has been running for weeks still matches the trader rather than drifting a little further out every day.

This is also why we suggest copying from a wallet you do not trade manually. Everything above works either way, but a dedicated wallet makes your own results far easier to read.
