Key metrics to evaluate at a glance

Tips for beginners:

● Choose elite traders or bots with longer running times, lower maximum drawdowns (preferably under 25%), and a larger copier base for a more stable experience.

● If you are aiming for higher returns, you may consider more aggressive strategies with 30–45% drawdowns, but always isolate funds properly—using sub-accounts is strongly recommended.

How to compare and choose (a practical 3-step method)

Step 1 — Quick screening

On the bot copy trading leaderboard, apply these filters:

● ROI (Sort by)

● Runtime

● Max drawdown < 35%

● Copiers: > 500

Step 2 — Shortlist and compare

Open the profiles of 3–5 elite traders/bots you're interested in and compare:

● Is the profit curve trending upward smoothly? (Be cautious of sharp, jagged swings.)

● Is the ROI over the last 1–3 months still strong? (Many elite traders start strong but fade later.)

● Do the bot's target coins match your market outlook? (e.g., BTC/ETH vs. altcoins)

● How well did the bot recover after significant drawdowns? (Did it regain momentum and make new highs?)

Step 3 — Verify and start small

● Check actual user reviews and profit-sharing posts/results.

● Start with a small test amount (about 5–15% of your total funds) and copy for 1–2 weeks to observe TP/SL execution and slippage.

● Set your own TP/SL and a maximum copy amount to manage risk.

Common pitfalls to avoid

● Only chasing the highest total ROI: Many "high-return" bots perform well short-term but may get liquidated later.

● Ignoring running time: A bot that returns 300% in one month is likely not sustainable.

● Going all-in at once: Diversify by copying 3–5 elite traders/bots with different strategy styles.

● Overlooking profit share ratios: Some strong elite traders charge higher profit shares, which users might overlook. However, if returns outweigh the cost, they can still be solid long-term choices.

Conclusion: What fits you is best

In Bitget bot copy trading, there's no single "best" elite trader—only the combination that best fits your needs. Use these benchmarks as a reference:

● Longer running time generally means greater stability

● Total ROI (e.g., futures grid ROI ≥ 80–150%, spot grid ROI ≥ 20%)

● Max drawdown ≤ 30%

● Positive ROI over the last 3 months

● A large number of copiers and mostly positive reviews

● Most copiers' profit curves show an overall upward trend

● Bot type suitable for the current stage of the market.

After choosing an elite trader, set an appropriate copy ratio/amount, enable auto-copy, and review performance regularly. If needed, change bots or adjust your SL limits. Wishing you steady performance with Bitget bot copy trading!
