What is CopyTrade?

CopyTrade is a platform for copy (mirror) trading. We provide solutions that make copy trading more efficient and hassle-free.


How it works?

We provide a solution called Strategy to manage copy trading across brokers and trading platforms.

A Strategy is a group of trading accounts combined to trading the same with each other, every Strategy has 1 Master Account and multiple Copier Accounts.

Whenever Master Account makes trading orders, it will be automatically copied to the Copier Accounts instantly.
