Copying trades between your own accounts

How to copy trades between your own Tradeify Perps accounts with the built-in copy-trading feature, and how to avoid creating opposing positions.

You can copy trades from one of your Tradeify Perps accounts to your others with the platform's built-in copy-trading feature. It's the only way to copy trades: automated trading isn't available, and bots, scripts and third-party trade copiers are prohibited. Copying must never create opposing positions, because that's hedging. And you can only copy between your own accounts, never with anyone else.

What copy trading does

You choose one master account and one or more copy accounts. Trades you place on the master account are copied to the copy accounts.

Every account in a copy group still has its own rules. Each copy account's loss limits, leverage, the news leverage limit and every other Trading Rule apply to it separately. You remain responsible for every trade on every account, so check that copied trades fit each copy account's loss limits and leverage.

Which accounts you can copy between

You can copy between any Tradeify Perps accounts that belong to you. You can't copy to or from accounts on other Tradeify brands, with other firms or belonging to anyone else.

Setting up a copy group

  1. Open the profile menu at the top right of the dashboard.

  2. Select "Copy Trading".

  3. Create a group.

  4. Choose the master account and the copy accounts.

Avoiding opposing positions

You must not hold opposing positions in the same instrument, or in two instruments in the same Product Group, across your accounts. Copying a trade can create them.

Example. Your master account opens a BTC long. One of your copy accounts already holds an ETH short. BTC and ETH are both in the Crypto Product Group, so the copy creates opposing positions. That's hedging, and it's a fair-play violation.

Before you start copying, check the open positions on every copy account. Don't trade the copy accounts in the opposite direction while they're in a group. See "Hedging and Product Groups".

What's not allowed

  • Copying or mirroring trades with anyone else.

  • Using signals or services from third parties to trade your account, including "pass-your-challenge" services.

  • Using bots, scripts, third-party trade copiers or any other automated tools.

  • Copying in a way that creates opposing positions or uses one account to protect another.

We may suspend or disable copy trading on your accounts at any time for risk, compliance or operational reasons.
