Copy Trading Terms & Rules
Version 2026-08-01 · These terms govern following a lead trader and acting as a lead trader on BitPerp.
Copy trading carries a high risk of loss. You can lose some or all of your funds. Nothing here is
investment advice. A reliability score and past performance do not predict future results.
Only copy with money you can afford to lose.
Part A — Follow Rules (for copiers)
By starting a copy, you authorize BitPerp to automatically mirror a lead trader's trades onto
your account under the settings you choose. You agree to the following:
1. How copying works
- Every trade the lead opens or closes is copied automatically. You cannot pre-approve
individual trades — copying is all-or-nothing while active.
- You choose the copy size (percentage of the lead's size), the leverage mode (same as the lead
or a fixed value), a maximum-drawdown auto-stop, and an optional pair filter. You are fully
responsible for these settings.
- Your results will differ from the lead's due to price slippage, execution latency,
exchange minimum order sizes, quantity rounding, your available margin, and per-order safety
caps. A trade may be partially copied, delayed, or skipped.
2. Margin, liquidation and account risk
- Copied positions use your margin. If your balance is insufficient, an order may fail or
be skipped — this is expected behavior, not a platform fault.
- Your positions can be liquidated. All liquidation, funding, and market risk is yours.
- We strongly recommend a dedicated account for copy trading. If you also trade manually
on the same account, your personal and copied positions share margin, and your account-level
auto-stop reacts to both.
3. Manual intervention
- You may close a copied position yourself at any time. Doing so can desync your account from the
lead; the engine reconciles by never closing more than you actually hold, but you accept the
risk of a mismatch.
- Stopping a copy halts new trades only. Open positions are not auto-closed on stop —
you are responsible for closing them.
4. Fees and profit share
- Trading commissions, funding fees, and slippage are yours.
- A lead may charge a profit share of up to 50% of your positive net profit over a
settlement period. It is calculated only on positive net profit; a losing period carries no
charge. The applicable percentage is shown before you copy.
- Any settlement or payout of profit share is reviewed before it occurs; funds are never moved
automatically without review.
5. No guarantee & suspension
- BitPerp does not guarantee any profit and is not liable for trading losses arising from copying.
- BitPerp may pause, suspend, or stop copying at any time for risk, maintenance, or compliance
reasons, including a platform-wide kill-switch.
- You confirm you are of legal age, eligible to trade derivatives in your jurisdiction, and not a
restricted person.
Part B — Lead Trader Agreement (for leads)
By becoming a lead trader (including setting a profit share), you agree to the following:
- Every trade on your rated account is copied to your followers. There is no separation
between "signal" and "personal" trades — use a dedicated account for leading.
- You will not manipulate your track record, including wash trading, martingale / doubling into
losers, or carrying large hidden floating losses. Such patterns lower your reliability score
and may disqualify you.
- You set your profit share (0–50%). You are not guaranteed any income from it.
- You remain solely responsible for your own trading decisions. BitPerp does not direct your
trades and does not guarantee you followers or profit.
- Your followers' losses are not your personal liability, but misconduct, manipulation, or abuse
may lead to removal of your rating and lead status.
- Your rating can be revoked at any time. Maintaining rated status requires an ongoing track
record and passing risk review.
Part C — General
- These terms may be updated. Material changes will be reflected in a new version, and you may be
asked to accept the updated terms before continuing to copy or lead.
- These terms supplement, and do not replace, BitPerp's general Terms of Service, Privacy Policy,
and Risk Disclosure.
- This document is an operational summary and is not legal or investment advice.
