Copy trading is where the positions opened by one trader – known as a leader –are replicated by other traders – known as followers. This process is often automated, so the fortunes of the follower will precisely mirror that of the leader. Liability for any losses still lies with the  trader who’s chosen to follow another account. Copy trading can be a popular route into the markets for those who lack the time or knowledge to feel confident in their ability to trade independently.

Social trading and copy trading are the same thing. They’re just two slightly different phrases used to refer to the same concept. Simple!

As a subscriber, any profits you make will be subject to the performance fee set by your provider. Typically, these fees are around 20-30% but they can vary, so it’s up to you to follow an account that demands a percentage you are happy to pay.

As a provider, you will earn a proportion of any profits made as a result of your trades being copied by your subscribers. This commission will be in line with the performance fee you have set, and you can determine the frequency at which these profits are paid into your account.

Yes, you can withdraw your profits and transfer them to your bank account at any point. This applies to both copy traders and providers. And the funds should be in your account the same working day, as long as the request is made within business hours. If not, they will be transferred on the next working day.

You have full liability for any losses you make when copy trading as a follower. Conversely, as a leader, you have zero liability for your followers’ losses.
