Copy trading

Copy trading uses another trader’s activity as an input to automated trading. It involves execution and funds, so it is separate from following a trader for research. The interface is available only to accounts with copy trading enabled.

​
Review a trader and start setup

  1. Open Copy trading in the sidebar. If the entry is unavailable, your account does not currently expose this interface.
  2. Open a trader to review their profile, activity, and performance over the selected period.
  3. Choose Copy trade to begin setup for that trader.
  4. Review the proposed venue, funding, sizing, limits, and execution instructions presented during setup. Resolve missing requirements before enabling the workflow.
  5. After activation, inspect the resulting runs and your own positions. A trader’s activity does not prove that your account executed the same trade.
Available controls depend on the venue and setup. Do not assume the displayed historical return is the return your account will receive: timing, available funds, prices, fees, and execution failures can differ. For account visibility without copying, use read-only account review. For reviewing actual activity, see transactions and portfolio.
