How to Copy-Trade AI Wallets on GDEX Pro

Copy trading has traditionally meant trusting a centralized platform with your funds while you mirror someone else's positions. GDEX Pro takes a different approach: it is a self-custody trading terminal, meaning you always control your own wallet. The AI agents built into the platform execute trades on your behalf, but your assets stay in a wallet that only you can authorize.

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.

GDEX Pro operates across nine chains: Solana, Ethereum, Base, BNB, Arbitrum, Optimism, SUI, Sonic, and Berachain. The AI agents can route trades across these networks, and perpetuals are available via HyperLiquid. Before you mirror any agent, it is worth spending a few minutes understanding how allocation works and what the realistic costs are — both of which this guide covers in full.

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.

1. 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.

   You'll seeThe landing page headlined "Trade Faster. 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.

2. 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, no 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.

3. Find the AI agent / copy-trade section

   

   From the main terminal, open the agents area. This is the Agent Risk Terminal, and it is where agents are configured, launched and monitored.

   You'll seeA header reading LIVE AGENT TERMINAL with a SYSTEM ARMED status pill, three mode tabs — Quick Start, Easy and Advanced — and counters for AGENTS, MATCHES, OPEN and REFRESH.
   Do nextCheck the AGENTS counter, which reads 1/5 in the screenshot below — one agent running against a ceiling of five. Then look at the module cards: PERP and OUTCOME are marked LIVE, while PUMPFUN is shown as COMING SOON and locked.

   

   Read this honestly: a strong track record is history, not a forecast. An agent that performed well in one market regime can lose in the next.

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. 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.

Understanding the Agent Slots and Risk Presets

The Agent Risk Terminal caps how many agents an account runs at once: its AGENTS counter reads 1/5, meaning one agent active out of five available slots. Each agent is configured from a risk preset rather than picked off a list of pre-built wallets. The Quick Start tab offers three presets — Conservative (per order 6%, daily cap 50%, take profit 15%, stop loss 8%), Balanced (10%, 75%, 25%, 12%) and Aggressive (20%, 100%, 40%, 20%) — with Balanced selected by default. Those percentages are what actually govern your risk, so read them before launching.

Because the agents can operate across all nine supported chains — Solana, Ethereum, Base, BNB, Arbitrum, Optimism, SUI, Sonic, and Berachain — and can access perpetuals through HyperLiquid, the risk profile varies considerably between agents. An agent that trades perpetuals carries liquidation risk that a spot-only agent does not. Read the available details carefully before allocating real funds.

• Up to five agent slots per account — the terminal's AGENTS counter shows 1/5 in use
• Three Quick Start risk presets: Conservative, Balanced and Aggressive
• Perpetual positions via HyperLiquid are possible depending on the agent
• Review each agent's activity history before allocating
• The PERP and OUTCOME modules are live; the PUMPFUN module is marked coming soon

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 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.

• 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
• No KYC required for on-ramp or trading

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

Most copy-trading platforms require you to deposit funds into a platform-controlled account. If the platform is hacked, goes insolvent, or freezes withdrawals, your funds are at risk. GDEX Pro's self-custody model means your assets never leave your own wallet. The AI agent executes trades on your behalf, but the wallet signing authority stays with you through Web3Auth's threshold cryptography.

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?

In the GDEX Pro Agent Risk Terminal the AGENTS counter reads 1/5, indicating an account can run up to five agents at once. Check the platform's agents section for the current limit and each agent's activity details.

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?

There is no stated minimum for copy trading itself, but if you are funding via Apple Pay the minimum on-ramp is $50. 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?

No 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.
