3. Current Copy Trading Positions
3.1 Trade "Details"
Using the position BTCUSDT｜Long｜Cross 83X as an example:
Position: The specific instrument currently copied; red indicates short, green indicates long, e.g., BTCUSDT｜Long｜Cross 83X;
Position Size: Shows the exact quantity held, e.g., 2.0856 BTC;
Contract Quantity: 20,856 contracts
Coin Quantity: 2.0856 BTC
Position Value: 129,429.83 USDT (real-time fluctuation)
Average Entry Price｜Mark Price: Average entry price is the average cost price at opening; mark price is the platform’s real-time reference price for profit and loss calculation, e.g., 62,226.4｜62,058.8;
Unrealized P/L / Return Rate: Unrealized profit or loss is the floating P/L amount based on the average entry price (62,226.4); positive means profit, negative means loss. Return rate = unrealized P/L / position margin × 100%, e.g., if position profit is -349.55 USDT, then return rate = -349.55 / 1563.6 = -22.35%;
Position Margin: The margin amount occupied by this position, e.g., 1563.6 USDT;
Entry Time: The exact time the position was opened, e.g., 2026-07-09 09:34:44;

Action: "Share" Operational suggestions for the current position, including position screenshot access and sharing link.
3.2 Trade "Summary"
Using the position BTCUSDT｜Long｜Cross 10X as an example:
Position Size: The "Summary" position size is the total of the same positions in "Details";
Contract Quantity: 459 contracts
Coin Quantity: 0.0459 BTC
Position Value: 2,840.87 USDT (real-time fluctuation)
Estimated Liquidation Price: Calculated based on entry price, leverage, and other parameters;
Unrealized P/L / Return Rate: The "Summary" unrealized P/L (calculated at average entry price 61,913) / return rate is calculated the same way as in "Details"; return rate = -0.94 / 284.18 * 100% = -0.32%;
Position Margin: The total position margin of the same positions in "Details";
Position, Average Entry Price｜Mark Price, Actions: Same meanings as in current copy trading "Details".

Contract Quantity: 3,879 contracts
Coin Quantity: 3.8739 BTC
Position Value: 244,064.22 USDT

5. Copy Trading Clients
In the "Copy Trading Clients" section, you can view the copy trading details of all clients following this trader, including:
Copy Trading Clients: Displays identifiers of clients participating in copy trading (such as avatars, nicknames), clarifying the specific copy trading subjects;
Copy Trading Duration: Records the cumulative time the client has been following the trader’s operations, reflecting the duration of cooperation;
Total Copy Trading Amount: The cumulative amount of funds the client has invested during copy trading, reflecting the scale of their copy trading capital;
Copy Trading Profit: The profit amount generated by all closed orders after the client followed the trader, before deducting the trader’s profit sharing portion.
Step 3: How to Configure Copy Trading Parameters
1. Copy Trading Amount
- Set the amount of USDT to use for copying the expert trader (example shown: minimum 10 USDT, maximum 1,000 USDT).
- Maximum Copy Trading Amount: Once the cumulative invested copy trading margin reaches this limit, no new positions can be opened following this trader. This controls the overall copy trading scale and trading risk.
2. Copy Trading Modes
2.1 "Same Proportion" Mode
- When the trader opens a position, the copier always invests the same proportion relative to the trader.
- The copier sets the same proportion. If the trader’s opening margin / available margin = X, the copier uses available margin * X USDT as margin for trading.
Example: If the trader has a total capital of 10,000 USDT, with 2,000 USDT occupied as opening margin and 8,000 USDT available margin, then X = 2000 / 8000 = 0.25. If the copier has 4,000 USDT available margin, they will use 4,000 * 0.25 = 1,000 USDT as opening margin.
2.2 "Fixed Amount" Mode
- When the trader opens a position, the copier always invests a fixed amount to copy.
Example: If the copier sets a single copy amount of 10 USDT and a maximum copy amount of 1,000 USDT, then for each position the trader opens, the copier invests 10 USDT until reaching the maximum limit of 1,000 USDT; meaning the retail investor can hold up to 1,000 / 10 = 100 copy orders simultaneously.
2.3 "Fixed Ratio" Mode
- When the trader opens a position, the copier always invests a fixed multiple to copy.
Example: If the trader opens a position worth 10,000 USDT and the copier sets a copy ratio of 0.5, the copier will open a position worth 10,000 * 0.5 = 5,000 USDT.
3. Advanced Settings
Margin Mode: Supports cross margin, isolated margin, and following the trader’s margin mode, automatically syncing with the trader’s settings without manual adjustment;
Instruments and Leverage: Settings apply only to this trader’s copy trading and will not affect your copy trading configurations with other traders or your regular contract trading;
Advanced Mode - Bulk Settings: When enabled, subsequent orders will follow the selected margin mode;
Choose Trading Pair: You can select your preferred trading pairs for copy trading, or check "Follow Trader’s Coin Changes". If checked, when the trader switches trading pairs, the system automatically syncs the corresponding pair, maintaining consistency without manual adjustment;
Overall Copy Trading Stop Loss: When the total stop loss amount reaches this value, the copy trading relationship is automatically terminated; remaining positions will be "immediately closed at market price / manually managed by me / closed following the trader";
Set Copy Trading Take Profit and Stop Loss: Manually input "Take Profit Ratio" (range 0.01~200.00%) and "Stop Loss Ratio" (range 0.01~90.00%). When a single copy trade’s profit or loss reaches the set ratio, the system automatically closes the position at market price;
Immediately Copy Positions at Market Price After Copying: If copying positions, you can closely follow the trader’s position changes but may incur losses due to price differences. If not copying, you start following from the trader’s next opening position.

1. Track Trading Performance
- Browse the "My Copy Trades" section on the copy trading page to monitor your orders and performance in real time.
2. Stop Copy Trading
- You can choose to stop copy trading at any time and no longer replicate the expert trader’s operations. You may reassess your strategy or switch to another expert trader to copy.
3. Adjust Parameters
