How it works

Starting and adding money#

Start following a portfolio with at least $5. Once you hold it, you can add $5 or more at a time. These minimums apply to the purchase amount before conversion and trading costs; the quote shows the costs before you proceed.

A market decline below $5 does not force a sale or require you to add money. After selling your entire position, starting that follow again requires $5. Selling closes the entire follow.

What it buys#

Your amount is split the way the portfolio is held. Supported positions are bought as tokenised stocks issued by Ondo Global Markets on BNB Chain, one token per share, and held in an account that only your wallet owns. A name without a token stays as USDT.

Ondo lists about 450 U.S. stocks and ETFs. They trade around the clock on weekdays, and the most traded names also trade at weekends.

What waits as cash#

Options, and anything else that cannot be held, are not imitated with stock or leverage: that share stays in USDT. So does a share too small to trade. A later update can buy it when it meets the trade minimum and price checks, for example after you add money.

Where it is held#

Each portfolio you follow has its own account on BNB Chain, created by your wallet the first time you buy. Your USDT goes into that account; Follow's orders buy the tokens from it and sell them back into it. Every order is filled through 1inch Fusion, with Ondo as the market maker, so what you hold is always the token itself, never a claim on Follow.

Money you send as another coin or from another network goes to a deposit address that is yours alone and lands in your Follow wallet as USDT on BNB Chain within about a minute, converted on the way; a purchase is always paid in USDT, with nothing left to convert when you press the button.

Keeping it in line#

When the portfolio changes, because of a new filing, a new trade report, or a creator publishing a new version, Follow buys and sells inside your portfolio account to match, subject to available markets and your price protection. You choose when to add more money.

Prices#

Every order is checked against a reference price first. By default, buys wait above 1.5% over it and sells wait below 1.5% under it. When a market is further off than that, the trade waits for an acceptable quote. You can see which names are waiting under "You hold", with the gap the quote showed.

Change your max slippage in Account, up to 5%. Your saved percentage applies to buys, full exits and automated updates across all your portfolios. A tighter limit can leave trades waiting longer; a wider limit accepts worse quotes. Execution slippage and fees are separate, and trades already submitted may still complete.
