Eurotrader´s copy trading platform empowers investors to automatically follow seasoned traders while maintaining full control over their capital and risk preferences. For those interested in becoming a signal provider, publishing a trading strategy is straightforward and well-structured.

Each signal provider must follow these steps to publish their strategy. The process involves the following stages: Trading Model, Trading Account, Trading History, Basic Settings, Strategy Description, and Publication.

To begin, access the “CopyTrade” section from your dashboard. In the copy trading interface, click the user icon and select “Publish strategy.”

Step1. Choose a strategy template by clicking “Choose,” then either create a new trading account or select an existing one.

Step2. Create a trading account for an investment product that appears in the list of investment proposals. If an account was previously created, then at this stage a list of accounts will open.

You'll need to enter the investment product name, minimum investment amount and currency, and desired leverage. Once all fields are valid, the “Create trading account” button becomes active.

Step3. The next optional step involves uploading your trading history. If added, the platform will generate key performance visuals like monthly percentage growth and trade summaries. You can delete or update this data at any time or skip the step altogether.

After loading the history, a success graph appears with the data: 

  • Monthly Percentage Growth 

  • Summary of trading history 

  • Position Summary 

Step4. In the general settings, define your trading model. This includes setting commission structures (success fees, volume fees, management fees), daily profit/loss limits, and trade allocation ratios.

In the commission category, you can set up an investment model for investors: 

  • add a layer for a multilevel offer (not available for a Hybrid ETF strategy): 

"Add layer" button next to the investment amount min. This allows us to offer investors commission models based on the investment amount. Each amount of the next level must be larger than the previous one. 

  • enable commission for success (max 66%): 

It is calculated as a percentage of the result at the end of the selected period (month, quarter, etc.) or when the investor deposits / withdraws funds. Calculation formula: (end of period - beginning of period - loss) * Fee / 100. 

The amount will be automatically debited from the investor's account to the purse of the investment proposal representative in the selected period (month, day, quarter, year, etc.). 

  • enable volume commission (max 10 $): 

Calculated in US dollars for the traded volume when a position is closed. 

  • enable management fees (max 66%, not available for the Hybrid ETF strategy): 

Calculated as a percentage of the current balance at the end of each period (month, quarter, etc.) or when depositing/withdrawing funds. 

Calculation formula: Balance * Fee / 100 * Days passed / 365. The amount will be automatically debited from the investor's account to the purse of the investment proposal representative in the selected period (month, day, quarter, year, etc.). 

In the category of daily profit and loss limit, you can add a daily limit in% of funds at the beginning of the day. If it is exceeded, the platform automatically closes all open and pending orders. Further trading is also prohibited and blocked until the beginning of the next trading day. 

In the Allocation category, select the type and enter the multiplier (if needed for the calculation). The allocation formula calculates the volume (lot) of the investor's position. With the help of allocation, you can specify in what proportion to copy trader's positions. 

Step5. Complete the strategy description. Descriptions are available in different languages (EN, CH, РУ, MS, ZH), when changing the language, you need to add descriptions in the selected language. If you do not add descriptions in all languages, then when a client opens an investment proposal in a language that does not have a description, the description will be displayed in the default language. 

The strategy descriptions are divided into the following points: 

  • Performance (with visualization enabled) 

  • General description (descriptions of the idea of the strategy, key factors) 

  • Exposure (with rendering enabled) 

  • Detailed information (descriptions of investment horizons, possible scenarios, profit formation) 

  • Success graph and monthly percentage gain (with visualization enabled) 

  • Trading criteria (descriptions of the position, criteria, explanation of the minimum amount for investment) 

  • Position information and trade history (with enabled visualization) 

  • Information warning (descriptions of behavior in different phases of the market, bad scenario, risks that need to be taken into account when trading, levels of profit and loss) 

  • Drawdown information, risk level (with visualization enabled) 

  • Terms of cooperation (descriptions of commissions) 

  • Terms of cooperation (with enabled visualization) 

  • Legal information and Disclaimer (descriptions of legal information) 

Strategy descriptions can be saved as a draft and published later. It will be available from the portfolio menu of your trading account. 

At the top in the right corner of the page there is an available function “Watch as an investor”. It allows you to view your offers as the investor sees it on the page “Investment solutions. 

Step6. Finally, review all your input in the Publication step. Read and agree to the publishing terms, verify all data, and make adjustments if needed. You can publish immediately or save the strategy as a draft to update later. Once live, your investment proposal appears in your trading account’s portfolio and becomes accessible to potential investors.
