<summary><strong>What is PolyKopy?</strong></summary>

PolyKopy is the AI copy trading layer for Polymarket.

We help users discover wallets worth following, rank traders by real-world copyability, and mirror qualifying trades through Telegram based on the rules each user sets.

The goal is simple:

* better wallet discovery
* smarter copy trading
* more control
* less guesswork

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Is PolyKopy just blind copy trading?</strong></summary>

No.

That is one of the biggest differences between lower-quality copy tools.

PolyKopy is built around **qualified copying**, not blind copying.

That means copied trades are shaped by:

* your settings
* your limits
* your protections
* your bankroll
* current market conditions

Not every source trade should automatically become your trade.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>How does PolyKopy find wallets to copy?</strong></summary>

PolyKopy scans Polymarket wallets and helps rank them using signals that matter for real copy trading.

That can include factors such as:

* copyability
* consistency
* risk
* liquidity
* real-world followability

The goal is not just to show flashy PnL.

The goal is to surface wallets that actually make sense to follow.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>What does copyability mean?</strong></summary>

Copyability means whether a wallet is realistically worth copying in live conditions.

A trader can be profitable and still be hard to follow because of:

* poor liquidity
* sharp timing dependence
* chaotic behavior
* oversized risk
* entries that are difficult to mirror well

PolyKopy focuses on finding wallets that are not just profitable, but usable.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>How fast does copy trading happen?</strong></summary>

PolyKopy is built for fast reaction and real-time workflow.

However, live markets still involve:

* timing
* price movement
* liquidity changes
* protection rules
* execution conditions

So while speed matters, quality of execution and structure matter too.

The goal is not just speed. It is smart speed.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Why did a trade not copy?</strong></summary>

Usually because it did not qualify under your current settings.

Common reasons include:

* entry limits blocked it
* slippage protection blocked it
* sizing rules prevented it
* exposure limits were reached
* the trade moved too far
* the trade no longer fit your setup

Often this means the system is protecting you, not failing.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Why was a trade skipped?</strong></summary>

A skipped trade usually means your rules filtered it out.

That can be a good thing.

Some of the best outcomes in copy trading come from trades you successfully avoided because they no longer fit your plan.

Skipped does not automatically mean missed opportunity.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Why does my fill look different from the source wallet?</strong></summary>

Because you are not literally becoming the source wallet.

Your copied activity depends on:

* real market timing
* your settings
* your limits
* live conditions
* your own execution path

Small differences are normal in real markets.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Can I control risk?</strong></summary>

Yes.

That is one of the core strengths of PolyKopy.

Users can shape their setup through rules and protections related to:

* sizing
* exposure
* entry quality
* copied trade selectivity
* aggressiveness vs conservatism

PolyKopy helps you automate the copy **without giving up control of the risk**.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Can I pause copy trading?</strong></summary>

Yes.

PolyKopy is designed to be manageable, not one-way.

You can review, pause, reassess, and restart your strategy when needed.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Do I need to watch markets all day?</strong></summary>

No.

That is one of the main reasons PolyKopy exists.

The product helps automate wallet following and qualifying trade copying, so you do not need to babysit every market move.

You should still stay engaged with your setup.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Is PolyKopy beginner friendly?</strong></summary>

Yes, especially if you start simple.

Best beginner approach:

* follow fewer wallets
* size smaller
* use stronger protections
* keep the setup understandable
* refine gradually

You do not need to be an expert to begin, but discipline helps.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Do I keep control of my wallet?</strong></summary>

Yes.

When you first launch the bot, a self-custody Safe wallet is created and assigned to you through Polymarket’s builder program.

PolyKopy does **not** have access to your private keys.

Your wallet remains yours.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Does PolyKopy guarantee profit?</strong></summary>

No.

No serious product should promise that.

Copy trading still involves risk. Markets move. Wallet performance changes. Good traders can still lose.

What PolyKopy improves is the process:

* better wallet discovery
* better controls
* better structure
* better visibility

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>How many wallets should I follow?</strong></summary>

There is no perfect universal number.

But many users do better starting with fewer, stronger wallets instead of following too many too quickly.

Too many wallets can create:

* noise
* overlap
* confusion
* messy exposure
* harder performance review

Selective usually beats chaotic.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Should I copy the top wallet on the leaderboard?</strong></summary>

Not automatically.

Leaderboards can be useful discovery tools, but the hottest-looking wallet is not always the best fit for your strategy.

You should still think about:

* risk
* consistency
* followability
* bankroll fit
* style fit

Use rankings as signal, not autopilot.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>What if my setup feels too aggressive?</strong></summary>

That usually means one or more of these:

* sizing is too large
* protections are too loose
* too many wallets followed
* total exposure is too high

The cleanest fix is usually to simplify, tighten, and reduce pressure.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>What if my setup feels too slow or too tight?</strong></summary>

You may be over-filtered.

That can happen if protections are so strict that very little qualifies.

Review your limits carefully and loosen gradually if it truly fits your goals.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>What is the best setup?</strong></summary>

There is no universal best setup.

The best setup is the one that matches:

* your bankroll
* your risk tolerance
* your experience
* your temperament
* your ability to stay disciplined

A setup that fits you usually beats one that only sounds impressive.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Where should I start?</strong></summary>

The cleanest path is:

1. Launch the bot
2. Fund your wallet
3. Discover stronger wallets
4. Follow selectively
5. Use smart protections
6. Track performance
7. Refine over time

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Where can I get updates or support?</strong></summary>

Always rely on official PolyKopy channels for:

* updates
* announcements
* support information
* new features
* pricing changes
* reward details

Use official sources only.

</details>

### The Bottom Line

PolyKopy is built to make copy trading smarter, cleaner, and more controlled.

You do not need to guess who to follow or blindly mirror every move.

You need stronger signal, better rules, and a setup you can actually trust.

**Less guessing. Better wallets. Smarter copying.**
