Wallet access uses user-controlled, exportable keys as described in the wallet documentation. Agent execution is separately documented as using server-side managed wallets. Check the custody model and permissions of the feature you are using before allocating funds.
The terminal runs in any browser — mobile Safari included — and you sign in with a Google or Apple account. Web3Auth threshold cryptography handles the key management behind the scenes, so there is no seed phrase to write down, though you can export your private key at any time. That combination of convenience and genuine self-custody is what makes the AI copy-trading feature worth understanding properly.
Copy trading and the separate Agent Risk Terminal have feature-specific network support. Check the selected market, permissions, allocation and current documentation before activating automation.
Before You Start
- A funded GDEX wallet — copy trading deploys real capital from your own address.
- An allocation figure you have already decided on, sized as money you can afford to lose.
- An understanding that an agent's past activity does not predict its future results.
- Roughly ten minutes to set up and review before you activate anything.
Step-by-Step Guide
GDEX Pro is actively developed and its screens change between releases, so these steps describe the flow rather than a fixed layout. Element names may differ slightly from what you see — the order of operations is what matters.
-
Open gdex.pro and sign in
Go to gdex.pro in any browser — there is no app to download. Sign in with Google or Apple; Web3Auth derives a self-custody wallet protected by threshold cryptography, and your private key stays exportable from account settings.

Win Bigger.", then the terminal once you are authenticated.Do nextUse the Start Trading call-to-action to enter the terminal, then complete the sign-in. - Fund the wallet you will be copying from Copy trading executes from your own balance, so the wallet has to hold funds first. Use the Apple Pay on-ramp (minimum $50, roughly 2–3% fee, signup-to-trade without KYC) or send supported tokens directly to your wallet address on any of the nine supported chains. You'll seeYour balance update against your wallet address once the deposit or on-ramp settles. Do nextFund only what you intend to allocate. Money sitting in the wallet is money the agent can deploy. No KYC is required for GDEX signup-to-trade. Third-party on-ramp providers may require identity verification and apply eligibility restrictions.
- GDEX supports mirroring up to 6 AI agent wallets. Select a trader or agent, allocate funds and review the available controls. Copied trades can lose money and execution may differ from the source wallet.

Pick an agent and set your allocation
Select the agent you want to mirror and choose the option to start copying. You are asked for an allocation — the portion of your balance the agent is permitted to deploy.
You'll seeAn allocation input and a summary of what you are authorising.Do nextStart small on your first session. You can raise the allocation later without tearing the whole setup down. -
Confirm and activate the copy
Review the summary and confirm. From that point the agent's trades are mirrored proportionally into your wallet.
You'll seeThe copy shown as active, with mirrored positions appearing as the agent trades.Do nextCheck that the positions appearing match the allocation you set, not your whole balance.Self-custody matters here: each mirrored trade executes on-chain from your own wallet address. You are not depositing into a pool that somebody else controls.

Monitor, then stop whenever you want
Mirrored positions are visible from the dashboard at any time. To end the copy, go back to the agent and choose the stop or deactivate option.
You'll seeYour positions and remaining balance, still held in your own wallet.Do nextStop, pause, or switch agents freely — nothing is locked up.Stopping is not the same as closing. Ending a copy stops new mirrored trades; any positions you already hold remain yours to manage until you exit them.

Fees to Know Before You Start
GDEX Pro charges approximately 1 percent on swaps executed through the terminal. When an AI agent mirrors a trade into your wallet, that swap fee applies to your side of the trade. If the agent trades frequently, those fees accumulate, so factor that into how you think about net returns.
If you use the Apple Pay on-ramp to fund your wallet, expect an additional 2 to 3 percent fee on the fiat-to-crypto conversion. The minimum on-ramp amount is $50. There is no KYC requirement for GDEX signup-to-trade for the on-ramp, which keeps the setup process fast. Network gas fees also apply depending on which chain the agent is trading on — Solana and Layer 2 networks like Base and Arbitrum tend to have lower gas costs than Ethereum mainnet. No KYC is required for GDEX signup-to-trade. Third-party on-ramp providers may require identity verification and apply eligibility restrictions.
- Swap fee: approximately 1% per trade
- Apple Pay on-ramp fee: approximately 2 to 3%
- Minimum on-ramp: $50
- Gas fees vary by chain — L2s and Solana are generally cheaper

Risks You Should Understand
Copy trading AI agents does not eliminate risk — it changes who is making the trading decisions. The agents operate autonomously and can lose money, especially in volatile market conditions. Crypto markets can move sharply in either direction, and any position the agent takes is subject to that volatility. Never allocate more than you can afford to lose.
Agents that use perpetuals via HyperLiquid introduce leverage and liquidation risk. If a leveraged position moves against the agent, the mirrored position in your wallet can be liquidated, meaning you could lose the full amount allocated to that trade. Self-custody also means there is no platform insurance fund protecting your balance — you bear the full risk of your own wallet. Set a conservative allocation when starting out and monitor your positions regularly.
- AI agents can and do incur losses — past activity is not a guarantee of future performance
- Perpetual positions carry liquidation risk
- Self-custody means no platform insurance on your balance
- Start with a small allocation to test how an agent behaves
- You can stop copying at any time — funds remain in your wallet
Why Self-Custody Matters for Copy Trading
Wallet access uses user-controlled, exportable keys as described in the wallet documentation. Agent execution is separately documented as using server-side managed wallets. Check the custody model and permissions of the feature you are using before allocating funds.
Signing in with Google or Apple means there is no seed phrase to lose or expose, which removes one of the most common points of failure for new crypto users. You can export your private key at any time if you want to migrate to a hardware wallet or another self-custody solution. This architecture makes GDEX Pro's copy-trading feature meaningfully different from centralized copy-trading products.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to download an app to use GDEX Pro's AI copy trading?
No. GDEX Pro runs entirely in the browser, including mobile Safari. There is no app to download. You sign in with a Google or Apple account and your self-custody wallet is created automatically.
How many AI agents can I run on GDEX Pro at once?
The FAQ describes mirroring up to 6 AI agent wallets through copy trading. The separate Agent Risk Terminal has its own agent limit and configuration. Review the current controls and permissions before allocating funds; automation can execute losing trades.
What happens to my funds if I stop copying an agent?
Your funds remain in your self-custody wallet. Stopping the copy simply means new trades from that agent are no longer mirrored. Any open positions that were already mirrored may need to be closed manually depending on how the platform handles active trades at the time you deactivate.
Is there a minimum amount needed to start copy trading?
Check current transaction limits and network or provider charges before proceeding. You should also account for the approximately 1% swap fee on each mirrored trade and gas fees on the relevant chain.
Can the AI agents trade perpetuals, and is that riskier?
Yes, GDEX Pro supports perpetuals via HyperLiquid, and some agents may use them. Perpetual positions involve leverage and carry liquidation risk, meaning a position can be fully liquidated if the market moves sharply against it. If you want to avoid this risk, review each agent's activity to understand whether it trades perpetuals before copying it.
Does GDEX Pro require KYC to use the AI copy-trading feature?
signup-to-trade without KYC is required to sign in, trade, or use the Apple Pay on-ramp on GDEX Pro. You authenticate with a Google or Apple account, and no identity documents are needed. No KYC is required for GDEX signup-to-trade. Third-party on-ramp providers may require identity verification and apply eligibility restrictions.
Bottom Line
GDEX Pro's AI copy-trading feature is genuinely useful for traders who want automated strategy execution without giving up custody of their funds. The five agent slots, nine-chain coverage, and browser-based access make it accessible, but the approximately 1 percent swap fee on every mirrored trade and the real risk of losses — especially from agents using perpetuals — mean it rewards careful allocation over blind trust. Start small, review agent activity before copying, and use the ability to stop at any time as your primary risk control.
