6. What's the Copy Trading mode at BTCEX?
At BTCEX one-click Copy Trading, Copy Traders will place orders following the ratios used by their Lead Traders. This mode protects the trading of Copy Traders to the largest extent.
When the Lead Trader opens a trade with a small amount, the Copy Trader might fail to copy the positions if the proportional copy amount is less than the minimum trade amount. In this case, it's important to adjust it based on the Lead Trader's portfolio deposit. For example, if your portfolio deposit is above 5,000 USDT, it's suggested to make the min. copy amount above 300 USDT in order to reduce the risk of copy failure.
