Copy Trading Tutorial

I. What Is Copy Trading?

Copy Trading is an intelligent strategy replication tool that allows regular users (Copy Traders) to automatically replicate the trading activities of professional traders (Lead Traders).

When a Lead Trader performs actions such as opening a position, closing a position, increasing a position, or setting Take Profit and Stop Loss orders, the system will synchronize the corresponding trading instructions to all Copy Traders’ accounts in real time, enabling automated Copy Trading without manual execution.

This feature is suitable for users with limited trading experience who wish to participate in the market by following professional trading strategies.

II. How to Start Copy Trading?

Step 1: Select a Lead Trader

1. Open the EasyCoin App / Web platform and tap 【Copy Trading】.
2. Browse and filter Lead Traders. You can refer to the following metrics:
   1. Historical ROI
   2. Trading Win Rate
   3. Total Number of Copy Traders
3. After selecting a suitable Lead Trader, tap 【Copy】 to proceed to the parameter settings.

Step 2: Configure Copy Trading Parameters

Custom Copy Trading

Basic Settings

• Margin Mode:
  • Cross Margin
  • Isolated Margin
  • Follow Lead Trader
• Leverage:
  • Custom leverage (1×–200×)
  • Or synchronize with the Lead Trader’s leverage

Copy Amount per Trade (Three Modes)

Under Custom Copy Trading, users can select one of the following three Copy Trading modes:

1️⃣ Fixed Amount Mode

• Each copied trade uses a fixed amount of margin to open a position.
• Suitable for users who want to clearly control the risk exposure of each trade.

2️⃣ Fixed Multiplier Mode

• The copied position size is calculated based on the Lead Trader’s position size × the specified multiplier.

Example:

• Lead Trader opens: 0.01 ETH
• Copy Multiplier: 2×
• Copy Trader opens: 0.02 ETH

3️⃣ Position Ratio Mode

Under this mode, the system places orders proportionally based on the Lead Trader’s capital utilization ratio:

1. The system calculates the utilization ratio based on: Margin Used for the Lead Trader’s Current Position / Lead Trader’s Total Futures Assets
2. The same ratio is then applied to calculate the corresponding margin amount for the Copy Trader.
3. Example:
   1. Lead Trader’s Assets: 30,000 USDT
   2. Margin Used for Current Position: 1,500 USDT
   3. Utilization Ratio: 1,500 / 30,000 = 5%
   4. Copy Trader’s Assets: 200 USDT
   5. Actual Margin Used to Open the Position: 200 × 5% = 10 USDT
4. If the calculated margin amount is less than 5 USDT, the copied trade will not be executed.

Risk Management Options

• Set a maximum limit on the amount of funds that can be used
• Set a Stop Loss amount or Stop Loss percentage
• Specify the cryptocurrencies allowed for Copy Trading

Step 3: View Copy Trading Status

Once the settings are completed, the system will automatically synchronize the Lead Trader’s trading activities. You can manage your Copy Trading activity in real time through the following pages:

• 【Current Positions】: View active copied positions marked as “Copying”
• 【Position History】: View records of closed Copy Trading positions
• 【Copy Trading Settings】: Adjust parameters or terminate the Copy Trading relationship at any time
