Trade Copier Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about copying trades between demo and live accounts, Investor Passwords, account currencies, Slave accounts, scalping, and lot sizes.

Can I copy trades from a demo account?

Yes. You can copy trades from both demo and live trading accounts.

Can I use my Investor Password?

You can use an Investor Password for a Master account only.

An Investor Password is read-only and does not provide permission to execute trades. It therefore cannot be used for a Slave account, as the copier needs permission to place trades on the Slave account.

Do account currencies matter?

No. You can copy trades between accounts with different base currencies, such as USD and GBP.

Can I copy trades to multiple Slave accounts from one Master account?

Yes. You can add multiple Slave accounts to a single Master account.

For instructions, see Adding an Additional Slave Account.

Can I use Traders Connect for scalping?

Yes. Traders Connect can be used for scalping. For this type of trading, use instant execution rather than limit orders.

Can I open the same lot size on the Slave account as on the Master account?

Yes. To copy the same lot size, select the Lot Multiplier risk setting and set it to 100%.

For example, a 1-lot trade on the Master will copy as a 1-lot trade on the Slave.
