1. Fixed Amount

  

Each copy trade is placed using a fixed amount, regardless of the trader’s order size.

Example: If the fixed amount is set to 50 USDT, every copy trade will be placed with 50 USDT regardless of the trader’s position size.

  

Key Features:

The amount invested per trade remains fixed, which helps keep risk more manageable.

Suitable For:

Beginners

Notes:

If the configured amount is too small to open at least 1 contract, the copy trade may fail. The actual order amount may vary slightly depending on the contract value.

  

  

2. Fixed Multiplier

  

Copy trades are placed based on a fixed multiple of the trader’s position size.

Example: If the trader opens 10 contracts and the fixed multiplier is set to 5, the system will open 50 contracts accordingly.

  

Key Features:

Allows users to flexibly increase or decrease exposure relative to the trader’s position size.

Formula:

Copied Position Size = Trader’s Position Size × Fixed Multiplier

Suitable For:

Advanced users with clear risk preferences

Notes:

An excessively high multiplier may lead to rapid margin consumption. If the account balance is insufficient, the copy trade may fail.

  

  

3. Fixed Contracts

  

Each copy trade is placed using a fixed number of contracts, regardless of the trader’s order size.

Example: If the fixed number of contracts is set to 10, the system will place every copy trade with 10 contracts regardless of how many contracts the trader opens.

  

Key Features:

Provides a clear and straightforward position size for more precise position management.

Suitable For:

Users with a clear understanding of contract sizes and position planning

Notes:

If the account balance is insufficient to open the configured number of contracts, the system will automatically place the maximum number of contracts supported by the remaining available balance.

  

  

4. Balance Ratio

  

The system automatically calculates the copy trading position size based on the trader’s margin usage ratio.

Example: If the trader uses 10% of their account balance to open a position, the system will also use approximately 10% of the copy trader’s available balance for the copy trade.

  

Key Features:

Allows users to replicate the trader’s position management strategy more closely.

Formula:

Copy Trade Margin = (Trader’s Order Margin ÷ Trader’s Available Balance) × Copy Trader’s Available Balance

Suitable For:

Users with larger account balances and professional copy traders

Notes:

If the account balance is too low and the calculated order size is insufficient to open at least 1 contract, the copy trade may fail.
