The profile URL is built from this trader's leaderMark. It is NOT verified to resolve: the copy-trading page is client-rendered, and it returns an identical shell for a bogus id, so we cannot confirm from the server that the profile exists.
What to check by hand, because we cannot get it: AUM, maximum drawdown, the equity curve, and follower PnL. Those are the numbers that qualify or disqualify a copy target. Nothing on this page does that.
The board lists only winners. Across 10,300 historical rows there is not one losing row — the minimum monthly PnL is $391,446. A trader's ABSENCE from a board means "not in the top 50 by dollars", NOT "lost money". Drawdown is invisible in this source.
Rank is by PnL, not ROI. Verified on 206 of 206 historical boards. Rank is largely a proxy for account size, and last week's rank is anti-predictive of next week's return.
High ROI here means a SMALL account, and it is usually transient. Implied capital correlates with ROI rank at rho +0.76 — the best-ROI rows are the smallest accounts. 72.9% of traders who reach the ROI top-10 appear there exactly once, ever. Rows matching this pattern are flagged suspect.
AUM, drawdown, equity curve and follower PnL are NOT AVAILABLE to us. They live behind an API we are blocked from. They must be checked by hand in a browser — that is what the profile link is for. Implied capital shown here is DERIVED (pnl / (roi/100)), not a reported balance.
This page is a funnel, not a rating. It surfaces candidates and their history; the judgement is yours. Full study in docs/audits/.
