What is Protected Copy Trading?
"Losses Covered by the Master; Profits Shared by All."
Protected Copy Trading is an innovative investment mode designed to safeguard the Follower's principal.
The Master Trader must pledge their own funds as collateral and guarantees the following:
Loss Compensation: If you incur a Net Loss from trading during the copy cycle (one calendar week), the Master Trader will fully compensate you.
Profit Sharing: If you make a profit, the Master Trader shares a higher percentage of the profit (60-80%).
⚠️ Important: Protection Covers "Trading Net Loss," Not "Transaction Costs"
The Master Trader compensates for the "Net Loss" caused by price differences in trading.
Trading Fees and Funding Fees generated during the process are mandatory market costs. These are not covered by the protection and must be borne by the Follower.
How Does the System Guarantee Compensation?
We employ four major risk control mechanisms to ensure the Master Trader is "Solvent and Accountable":
💰 Strict Entry Standards: Master Traders must put their own skin in the game. A Contract Account Equity of ≥ 10,000 USDT is required to activate this feature.
📉 Low Leverage: The system enforces a maximum of 5x Leverage to prevent high-risk gambling.
-
🛡️ Strong Collateral (20% Safety Cushion):
For every 5 USDT of Follower funds received, the Master must hold at least 1 USDT in margin.
Formula: Max AUM Cap= Master Equity / 20%
⚡ Weekly Settlement: Settlements occur every Monday. If losses occur, compensation is automatically transferred without delay.
Compensation & Risk Management Mechanism
The system monitors the Master Trader's payout pressure in real-time. If the pressure becomes too high, risk control measures are automatically triggered:
| Trigger Condition | Risk Status | System Action |
|---|---|---|
| Current AUM > Master Equity / 20% | Overload | Pause New Followers. (Quota full) |
| Est. Payout ≥ 50% of Master Equity | Elevated | Risk Alert Sent. Suggest closing positions or adding margin. |
| Est. Payout ≥ 85% of Master Equity | Liquidating | Forced Liquidation & Termination. Remaining equity is frozen and used to compensate Followers proportionally. |
Follower Must-Read (FAQ)
Q1: Why can't I follow certain Master Traders?
Reason A (Quota Full): For safety, a Master's capacity is capped by their margin size. If it shows "Quota Full," their safety cushion is maxed out. You must wait for them to add funds or for other followers to exit.
Reason B (Exclusivity): Protected Copy Trading is currently open only to the Master's direct invitation network or direct clients.
Q2: If I lose money, when will the compensation arrive?
Settlement Time: Every Monday at 01:00 (UTC). One calendar week constitutes one Copy Cycle.
Distribution: Automatically transferred to your Futures Account.
Q3: Can I stop copying mid-week (e.g., Wednesday) and still get compensated?
No. Please pay attention!
Protected Copy Trading is only valid for a completed Copy Cycle. If you voluntarily "Stop Copying" or "Reduce Funds" before the settlement date, it will be considered an automatic forfeiture of that week's protection eligibility.
Advice: If you wish to exit, please wait until the Monday settlement is complete.
Q4: Can I manually close positions?
No.
In Protected Copy Trading mode, Followers cannot manually close positions or intervene in trades. To ensure the accurate calculation of the Master's liability, the system operates under "Fully Managed Protection."
If you disagree with the current trading direction, your only option is to "Stop Copying," but please note the forfeiture rule mentioned above.
Master Trader Must-Read (FAQ)
Q1: What are the requirements to become a Protected Master Trader?
Entry Threshold: Contract Account Equity ≥ 10,000 USDT.
Leverage Limit: Max 5x Leverage (Low Leverage Mode).
Q2: Since I bear the compensation risk, why should I open "Protected Copy Trading"?
High risk corresponds to high reward. The system offers industry-leading incentives:
Ultra-High Profit Share: You can set a profit share ratio of 60% - 80%.
70% Commission Rebate: Earn 70% of your followers' trading fees as direct income.
Client Acquisition Tool: The "Protected" tag is highly attractive to users, helping you rapidly expand your Assets Under Management (AUM).
Q3: Why is the Commission Rebate "Locked," and how do I unlock it?
To protect user interests, we use a "High-Water Mark" mechanism.
Rebates first go into a "Locked Pool." The rebate is only unlocked and issued to you when you help your Followers make a profit (i.e., when the user's Net Asset Value breaks a new historical high).Commission rebate on leader fees applies only to direct customers. Learn more
Summary: You only earn commissions if your users make money. This fundamentally prevents churning (wash trading) just to generate fees.
Q4: How do I check my risk status and distance to liquidation?
You can view your "Risk Status" in the "Compensation" tab on the Master Dashboard.
Est. Weekly Payout: The sum of losses from all followers currently in a net loss state for this cycle. (Profits from winning users do not offset losses from losing users).
Historic Pending Debt: Unpaid debts to users from previous cycles due to insufficient balance.
Current Account Equity: The real-time dynamic equity of your contract account.
| Status | Risk Ratio | Meaning & Consequence |
|---|---|---|
| 🟢 Normal | < 50% | Healthy. Funds are sufficient; trading proceeds normally. |
| 🟡 Elevated | ≥ 50% |
Warning! Your estimated payout exceeds half your principal. Advice: Close positions to stop loss or add margin immediately. |
| 🔴 Liquidating | ≥ 85% |
Forced Liquidation! Risk is critical. The system intervenes. Consequences: 1. All positions closed at market price. 2. Remaining equity frozen for compensation. 3. Copy trading project terminated. |
Q5: How do I withdraw funds in Protected Mode?
In this mode, standard transfers are disabled. You can only apply to "Release Margin" (excess funds beyond the safety cushion).
The system calculates a "Max Available Release," which is the lesser of the following two values:
Available Balance: Cash in the account not used as order margin.
-
Max Risk-Allowed Equity: To ensure safety after withdrawal, your remaining funds must meet all three criteria (the system deducts enough to satisfy the highest requirement):
No "Pending" status payouts in the record.
Remaining Account Equity ≥ 10,000 USDT.
Own funds must remain ≥ 20% of Total AUM.
Risk Ratio must remain ≤ 10%.
