Copy trading, explained

Their trades. Your account.

Copy trading mirrors a trader you pick straight into your own brokerage account. They open a trade — your account follows it in real time. Same move, same moment, and your money stays yours.

Trading carries risk, including losing your deposit. Not investment advice.

The basics

So… what is copy trading?

Copy trading is autopilot for someone else’s strategy. You pick a trader whose style you like, choose an amount, and every trade they open gets mirrored into your own brokerage account — automatically, in real time. People also call it mirror trading or social trading. Same idea, different name. It works wherever your broker trades: forex, metals, indices, crypto.

  • Your money stays in your own brokerage account — the traders you copy never hold it.
  • You choose who to follow and how much to allocate.
  • You can stop copying whenever you want. One tap, the mirroring ends.
Why copy

Four reasons the copy crew keeps growing

Short version: you keep the upsides of a pro’s routine without living at a desk.

Learn from live trades

Every copied trade lands in your account with its entry and exit. You watch real decisions play out instead of memorising textbook theory.

Spread your strategies

Follow more than one trader so one quiet week doesn’t have to be your quiet week. Different styles, different rhythms — you pick the mix.

Skip the screen time

No 3 a.m. chart-watching required. The mirroring follows your trader around the clock, so your calendar stays yours.

The Rebatengine angle

Copied trades still earn cashback

Here’s our twist: copied trades are real trades in your account — so they can earn rebates on top. You mirror a trader you like, and every copied lot keeps collecting cashback while the strategy runs. Copying plus cashback, stacked.

Copy vs manual

“Why not just trade myself?”

Fair question. Both roads are open — here’s how they actually feel.

TimeTrades happen while you live your life.
SkillYou lean on a trader’s experience while you learn the ropes.
FeelingsThe plan runs without your hesitation in the loop.
ControlYou pick who, you pick how much, you can stop anytime.

Honest note: copying doesn’t remove risk — it shares the trader’s wins and losses with you. Only copy people whose style you actually understand.

Step by step

How it works

Four steps from curious to copied in.

  1. Create your account

    Sign up free and connect your MT5 brokerage account. Takes minutes — no downloads, no paperwork marathon.

  2. Browse the traders

    Open the copy trading tab in your dashboard and explore track records, trading styles and risk levels at your own pace.

  3. Pick your trader + amount

    Choose who to copy and how much to allocate. Start small if you like — you can adjust or add traders later.

  4. Hit follow

    From there it’s mirrors: their new trades copy into your account automatically, in real time. Unfollow anytime — it’s your account, always.

Questions

Copy trading FAQ

The five things everyone asks first.

Nope — that’s the point. You choose a trader whose style you like, and the mirroring handles execution. That said, understanding what your trader does makes you a smarter copier, so read their history first.

Read this before you copy anyone

Copy trading is risky. Leveraged trading can lose money, and when your copied trader loses, your account loses too. Nothing on this page is investment advice — it’s education, not a recommendation. Past performance never predicts future results.
