How to follow top traders in MetaMask
Follow trading lets you discover and copy top-performing traders directly in MetaMask Mobile. You can follow them to receive instant notifications when they trade and tap straight into a modal to execute the same trade yourself.
The leaderboard covers traders across:
- Spot trading: swaps on Ethereum Mainnet, Base, and Solana
- Perps trading: perpetuals on Hyperliquid
Past performance does not predict future results. The leaderboard ranks traders by historical profit and loss (P&L), but market conditions change.
Do not use follow trading as a basis for trading, investment, legal, or tax decisions. Always conduct your own research before making any financial decision.
How to follow a trader
- On the MetaMask Mobile home screen, scroll down to the 'Weekly top traders' section.
- Use the filter tabs to browse traders by spot or perps trading.
- Tap any trader card to open their profile. Here you can see their 7-day profit and loss (P&L), win rate, and average hold time.
- Tap 'Follow' on a trader's profile to follow them.
How to turn on notifications for a trader
- Open a trader's profile and tap the bell icon in the top right corner.
- Toggle 'Allow push notifications' on.
- Under 'Get notified of trades over', select a minimum trade size: $10, $100, $500, or $1,000. You'll only receive notifications for trades at or above this value.
How to execute a trade from a notification
When a trader you follow makes a trade, you'll receive a push notification on your device, example: "5x longed $5K of ETH at $2,123.4":
- Tap the notification to open a modal showing the trader's position and recent activity.
- To open a perps position, tap 'Long' or 'Short'. To buy a spot token, tap 'Buy'.
- Set your trade size using the amount field or slider.
- Tap 'Pay with' to choose the token you want to spend.
- Review the details (leverage, fees, liquidation price) and confirm the trade.
