How Copy Trading Works On-Chain: From the Whale's Buy to Yours, Step by Step
Copy trading is a bot watching a wallet, seeing its $SOL buy confirm on-chain, and placing yours by the sizing rule you set. On Banana Gun that means /copytrade, New Copy Trade, the wallet address, then Active.
The four steps
This is the path every copied trade takes, from the whale's wallet to your position.
1. The whale wallet buys a token and the trade confirms on-chain.
2. Your bot reads that buy from the chain.
3. Your sizing rule applies. Buy Percent at 50% turns a 2 $SOL buy into 1 $SOL , and Max Buy caps the result per copied buy.
4. Your filters and exit apply, since Min and Max Market Cap filter the buy: with a $500K max, a $600K buy does not copy. Copy Sells mirrors the whale's exit, or you set your own Take Profit and Stop Loss.
What you cannot change
Your buy always lands after the whale's, at the price left once their buy has moved it.
Banana Gun cannot put a copy ahead of the trade it copies, because every copy lands after the trade it copies. Pick a wallet whose entries still make sense after that price move.
Setting it up on Banana Gun
Open the bot and send /copytrade. Tap New Copy Trade, paste the target wallet, add a description and select the wallets that will do the buying.
Then toggle the trade from Inactive to Active. Banana Gun starts mirroring that wallet under the sizing rule and filters you picked.
Which part would you rather control on your next copy trade, the size of the buy or the exit?
