we were thinking of "copy trading" as the primary way to detect alfa for @alfaca but then: i'd copy trade, then look away for a second and get destroyed - they don't shill. they just buy/sell. so when i get rekt just blindly free riding, who do i blame? myself.

Yep, generally speaking copy trading is tough since you are always copying in a different environment than the original trade. It's easy to illustrate with trading limit orders. What if the original order was executed, but yours remains open cause the order book has changed since than? Buying market? Sending a limit order with a current price? The difference in balances between you and a leader will grow exponentially over the time.
