Start, Pause, and Stop Copying

Control copying per trader by assigning or removing the execution connection. Always treat open exchange positions as a separate responsibility.

Trader states

Settings > Traders shows one label per trader. That label reflects the execution connection only, so read it together with the Configuration column beside it.

Where Dry Run fits

Dry Run is a property of the assigned configuration, not a separate trader label. A trader running a Dry Run configuration and a trader trading live both display Copying. To tell them apart, check the Configuration column, which appends dry run to the configuration summary, or open the configuration itself.

Start copying

1. Confirm the intended Hyperliquid connection is healthy.
2. Confirm the selected configuration has the limits you want.
3. Edit the trader in Settings > Traders.
4. Select the execution connection and trade configuration.
5. Save and confirm the trader shows Copying.

Pause new copy actions

1. Edit the trader.
2. Set the Exchange field to No Copy Trading. This is the pause control; the configuration dropdown cannot be cleared back to none.
3. Save and confirm the trader shows Watching.
4. Open Hyperliquid and review any position or order that already exists.

Stop following a trader

1. Pause copying first.
2. Review and manage live exchange exposure.
3. Remove the trader only after you no longer need its activity or copy history linked from the settings view.

If you need to stop immediately

1. Open Hyperliquid first. Cancel or reduce the orders and positions you do not want.
2. In FiatBear, remove the exchange assignment from every copied trader.
3. Check Copy Trades for recent requests or errors.
4. If the connection itself is compromised, use Hyperliquid's current controls to revoke the agent, then replace the FiatBear connection.
