Strategy Lab
Find traders worth copying. Test the idea before a dollar moves.
Ask in plain words. The Lab ranks wallets on what copying them actually paid, tests your rule against copying everyone, then paper-trades it on live order books.
I have a $1,000 bankroll and want to copy traders on non-sports markets (politics, world events, finance — not crypto). Which wallets are worth following right now, and would copying them actually have made money?
- Screened non-sports wallets on what copying them paid, Aug 2 → Sep 23
- Saved two copy rules as draft strategies
- Backtested both on Aug 29 → Sep 23, re-picking wallets every week
The evidence is weak.
Wallets screened · per $10 copied, in-sample
- 0x1c9d…0e0e36 copies+$14.29
- 0x9935…ea0726 copies+$12.26
- 0xe1b3…142626 copies+$16.86
- 0x1583…cdde21 copies+$10.31
- 0x0cb1…a76c45 copies+$10.81
- 0x0845…6b6f47 copies+$11.56
In-sample: with hundreds of wallets screened, some look strong by luck alone.

Negative without its best 3 days (−$0.15). I wouldn’t commit money on this. The agreement rule is the one worth paper trading.
Simulated performance. These results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.

The assistant reads a wallet’s whole history, month by month, and says what changed.
Dig into 0x0cb1…a76c over its whole history. Does anything suggest its edge is fading?
Return per dollar bought, by the month its markets resolved
Aug 2025 · 51%Oct 2026 · 22%
Share of its buys that took liquidity
Profitable every month for two years, but its return per dollar has roughly halved since spring 2026, and it now mostly takes liquidity. I’d treat the edge as fading, especially for a copier.

Your first strategy is one question away.
These are dated examples, not current advice: the Lab’s rules and history have changed since, so the same questions asked today get different answers. Example 1’s figures are simulated on past data; Example 2 is this wallet’s actual record. Past results do not predict future ones, and nothing here is investment advice.
