Copy trading is a trading strategy that allows traders to automatically replicate the trades of experienced investors, known as signal providers. When a signal provider opens, modifies, or closes a position, the same action is executed on the follower’s account in real-time.
Copy trading attracts people who typically avoid trading due to market complexity. This expands the client base beyond traditional traders and brings in commission revenue from previously untapped segments. Learn how to attract clients with Copy Trading.
Clients stay longer when they can follow successful traders. Instead of quitting after losses (as many new traders do), they remain engaged by connecting with experienced traders who demonstrate consistent returns.
Copy trading platforms like Social Trading lets clients follow multiple traders simultaneously from MT4, MT5, and cTrader. This natural diversification spreads investment across different strategies and assets to create a more balanced approach than single-strategy trading.
Real-time performance data shows how each trader performs before they commit their money. This transparency eliminates any skepticism.
To get started, brokers need to install a copy trading platform on their existing servers. Make sure the platform you choose integrates with your tech stack and supports the trading platforms you offer. For example, Social Trading is a cross-platform solution that works with MT4, MT5, and cTrader and connects with leading CRMs like Syntellicore and Skale.
Once installed, brokers can configure everything — from defining user rules, workflows, and risk management rules to approving which traders qualify as signal providers. After setup, traders can sign up as signal providers, while others (followers) choose whom to copy.
Whenever a signal provider places a trade — opening, modifying, or closing a position — the same trade is automatically mirrored in their followers’ accounts in real-time, everything is copied proportionally, so even clients with smaller balances can follow high-volume traders based on their available funds.
Social Trading is a leading cross-platform solution that allows traders to copy and execute strategies of more experienced signal providers across MT4, MT5, and cTrader.

Social Trading’s risk management features protect both brokers and their clients. It eliminates operational and infrastructural risks for brokers and offers reliable and easy-to-understand protection mechanisms for traders.
Social Trading allows admin control features to reduce part of operational risks. The restricted administrators feature creates a hierarchy of management decisions and only provides the necessary powers to designated staff.
Brokers can appoint one administrator, a superuser with the maximum control over managing additional staff rights and enabling the platform’s configuration. This way, brokers reduce human errors and the risk of accident interference in the investment system’s performance.
Social Trading also allows brokers to categorize traders in different groups and servers based on their region of registration, connected LP, roles, etc., to configure rules for the group accurately. During operation with them, the administrator doesn’t have to re-login.
Traders can use the Social Trading platform to mitigate risks in several ways:
Proportional copying equalizes the trading risks of providers and subscribers, who often start trading with small amounts.
Advanced Stop-Loss & Take-Profit settings regulate all limits for the order.
Stop-Loss and Take-Profit rules on the subscription-level configure conditions for all trades from one provider.
Social Trading offers a special Ratings Module that can also be connected with PAMM. It allows brokers to easily create custom widgets for signal providers’ real-time trading information. These widgets can be integrated into the brokers’ websites to attract potential traders with interactive charts and graphs.
Ratings Module integrates dashboards from signal providers and investor portals directly into the trading room as widgets. It allows brokers to consolidate all client information within a single virtual workspace.
Brokeree Social Trading App combines all the powerful features of the web version with an intuitive, mobile-friendly interface. The app’s available on App Store and Google Play store for download and distribution.
The Social Trading mobile app allows users to access the platform anytime and anywhere. It has a dedicated web portal for administrators, signal providers, and followers. By making this cutting-edge technology available on mobile devices, Brokeree significantly enhances convenience and accessibility for all users.
Brokers earn through a platform fee charged to signal providers for publicly sharing their trading strategies. The fee is taken as a percentage of the follower’s performance fee, which is deducted directly from the follower’s trading account. The more signal providers on the platform, the higher the broker’s revenue. Platform fees are fully customizable and can be adjusted anytime by the broker’s admin or staff.
Trading signals tell traders when to buy or sell financial assets. These signals come from different sources; some traders rely on technical chart patterns, others on economic data and company performance, and some use sophisticated computer algorithms to spot opportunities.
Copy trading signal providers are seasoned traders who allow others to automatically replicate their market moves. When these experts execute trades in their accounts, the same transactions are instantly mirrored in their followers’ accounts.
