# Initial Setup

1. **Add Trading Addresses**\
   First, choose **one to three** trading addresses that you’d like to copy. For more information on which wallets might be good targets, refer to the Recommendations for Choosing Traders section. You can also use our **Trader Discovery** feature on the copytrading page.
2. **Create Agent Wallet**\
   Generate a dedicated **agent wallet** specifically for copytrading. This wallet cannot deposit or withdraw funds; it simply executes trades on your behalf.
3. **Approve Builder Fee**\
   You must authorize a **5 basis-point (0.05%)** builder fee for each order placed by the agent wallet. This fee covers the operational costs of copytrading.
4. **Start Copytrading**\
   After clicking **Start Copytrading**, you will begin mirroring positions opened by the copied addresses. In Settings (next to the trader addresses) you will be able to choose whether you want *all positions to be copied on a start* or *only positions with favorable entries to be copied.*
