Copy Trading

Copy trading allows you to automatically copy the trades of experienced or professional traders, meaning you don’t have to analyze the markets or make decisions yourself. You simply select a trader to follow, and whenever they make a trade, it is copied in real time to your account.

How It Works (Simple Explanation)

Imagine:

• You’re a beginner and don’t know how to trade.

• There’s an experienced trader, Alex, who makes smart decisions in the market.

• You connect your account to Alex's account through a copy trading platform.

Now:

• If Alex buys EUR/USD → Your account also buys EUR/USD.

• If Alex sells Bitcoin → Your account also sells Bitcoin.

This process happens automatically, with no manual effort needed on your part.

Real-Life Simple Example

Let’s say:

• Alex invests $1,000 and makes a 10% profit in a week → Alex now has $1,100.

• You copy Alex with $500 in your account.

Your profit will also be 10%, so you’ll now have $550.

Though both of you made the same percentage profit, your actual earnings depend on how much you invested.

Summary:

By copying trades, you earn profits (or losses) proportionally based on your investment.
