Copy trading mirrors another wallet’s buys and sells into your own wallet automatically. Banana Gun is a Telegram trading bot whose Buy Fixed setting replaces the copied wallet’s trade size with an amount you choose, so a whale’s six-figure buy does not become your six-figure buy.
A whale-sized wallet and a small retail wallet can both show up on the same leaderboard. If you copy trade size for size, the bigger wallet’s bet can be larger than your entire bankroll.
Banana Gun’s Copy Trade settings exist to break that link between the copied wallet’s size and your own risk. Buy Fixed is the simplest of them.
Before you copy anyone, track a wallet before you copy it to see whether its results depend on size, timing or luck.
What goes wrong when you mirror a wallet’s size?
Mirroring a wallet’s exact size means your position scales with a stranger’s bankroll, not yours. A trader with a small bankroll who copies a whale’s buy at matching proportions is not trading, they are gambling their whole account on one entry.
Gas adds another layer: matching a whale’s proportional size on Ethereum during a busy hour can mean a gas bill many times larger than a retail trader would ever pay for the same token.
A leaderboard rewards wallets that already survived one wild swing. Copying their exact size assumes your account can survive the same swing, and most retail bankrolls cannot.
What does Buy Fixed do?
Buy Fixed replaces the copied wallet’s trade size with a fixed amount you set once, inside your Copy Trade configuration. Every mirrored buy from that wallet uses your number, not theirs.
On a Telegram trading bot, that one setting is what turns a whale’s leaderboard entry into a position sized for your own account, whatever the copied wallet risked.
Buy Fixed does not care whether the copied wallet bought $10 or $10,000 worth of a token. Every mirrored entry from that wallet lands at your chosen number, every time.
How to pick the fixed amount on a Telegram trading bot
Size the fixed amount against your own bankroll first, not the wallet you are copying. A number worth holding through ten losing trades in a row is closer to sane than one built around a single leaderboard win.
Gas eats into a small fixed buy more than it eats into a large one, so a small fixed amount on a chain with high fees can lose money on execution alone before the token moves at all.
The number of wallets you copy at once also matters. Several wallets each firing a fixed buy in the same hour add up to real exposure, even if no single trade looks large on its own.
A trader copying three or four wallets at once usually settles on a smaller fixed amount per wallet than someone copying just one, since the total exposure stacks across every wallet that fires in the same session.
Which settings sit next to Buy Fixed
Buy Only Once blocks the bot from re-buying the same token for seven days, which stops one volatile call from becoming five separate entries.
A Min/Max Market Cap filter only copies buys inside a band you set, so a wallet’s early entry into a token that later runs to a huge market cap will not drag your bot into a coin you would never touch at that size.
Trailing Stop Loss follows the price up after your fixed buy fills and sells on the pull-back you define, so the exit does not depend on watching a chart.
None of these settings talk to each other automatically. Stacking Buy Fixed with a tight Min/Max Market Cap filter can leave a copied wallet’s best trades outside your band entirely.
When a fixed buy is the wrong choice
A fixed buy caps the win at the same rate it caps the loss. If the copied wallet turns a small entry into a large exit, your fixed buy grows by the same multiple, not by the wallet’s dollar result.
A trader who wants the copied wallet’s actual proportion, not a fixed slice, is better off watching that wallet by hand than running it through a Telegram trading bot built around Buy Fixed.
A trader who only ever copies one wallet at a small fixed size, and never raises it after a string of wins, is using Buy Fixed as intended. Raising the number to chase a hot streak defeats the point of setting it.
Common questions
Does Buy Fixed work the same way on every chain Banana Gun supports?
Buy Fixed sits inside the same Copy Trade configuration on every chain where copy trading runs. Whether it behaves identically chain to chain is a detail to confirm inside the bot; gas cost and pool depth change chain to chain regardless.
Can I set a different Buy Fixed amount for each wallet I copy?
Buy Fixed is a Copy Trade setting, and a trader copying several wallets sizes the fixed amount for the total exposure across all of them rather than for any single wallet. Whether the amount can differ per wallet is a detail to confirm inside the bot before funding it.
What happens if my fixed amount is bigger than the trade I’m copying?
A fixed buy larger than the wallet’s own trade size still fills at your number, since Buy Fixed replaces the copied size rather than scaling it. Copying a wallet’s small test buy at a large fixed amount turns a minor position into a major one.
Does Buy Fixed replace the need to check a wallet before copying it?
Buy Fixed only controls position size, it says nothing about whether the wallet is worth copying in the first place. A wallet that trades badly at a fixed amount still loses at that fixed amount, so the setting limits damage rather than preventing it.
