When you copy a trading strategy, you can adjust the size of the copied trades based on your risk level, available capital, and personal preferences. Below, we explain the different options available to you.
Mirror Strategy Size
With this option, you exactly replicate the size of each signal provider's trade.
📌 Example:
If the provider buys £50 of GBP/USD, you will also buy £50 of GBP/USD, regardless of your account size.
✅ Advantages:
You exactly copy the provider's decisions.
Ideal if you want to follow the strategy to the letter.
⚠️ Note:
If your account does not have sufficient funds, the trade will appear in the "Losing Trades" tab.
Fixed Size
With this option, you can define a fixed lot size for each copied trade, regardless of the provider's trade size.
📌 You can set a larger or smaller size than the provider's.
✅ Advantages:
Greater control over your position sizes
Useful if you want to maintain constant exposure
Proportional to Equity or Balance
These settings allow the size of copied trades to automatically adjust based on your account size:
Proportional to Balance
The size is based on your total available balance.
Proportional to Equity
The size is adjusted based on your available equity (balance adjusted for unrealized gains or losses).
Advantages:
You maintain a risk level proportional to that of the provider.
Ideal for accounts larger or smaller than the original.
Multiplier
The multiplier modifies the size of the copied trade by multiplying the original calculation.
🔢 Range: You can choose a value between 0.1 and 10x
📌 Example:
1x multiplier = same size as the base calculation
0.5x multiplier = half the size
2x multiplier = double the size
✅ Works with the following configurations:
