Following and Copying Top Traders
How to find top traders on the Leaderboard, follow their public trades, connect on Discord, and mirror their strategies with copy trading.
You can discover top traders on the Leaderboard, follow their public trades, connect with the community on Discord, and mirror strategies through copy trading on the Algorithmic Trading page. Here is how each piece fits together.
Find top traders
The Leaderboard ranks traders so you can see who is performing well and study how they approach the market. From there you can explore public trader profiles and the trade gallery, where traders share individual trades. Browsing these is a great way to learn setups and get ideas before you commit any capital of your own.
Remember that past performance on a Leaderboard does not guarantee future results. Use it to learn, not as a promise.
Connect on Discord
Community happens on Discord. Link your account on the Discord settings page to join the conversation, ask questions, and follow how top traders think in real time. Once you connect, you can take part in the community chat and stay close to the people whose trading you want to learn from. If you are new to the Discord app itself, you can find it at discord.com.
Copy their strategies
When you want to go beyond watching, copy trading lets you mirror another trader's activity automatically. You set this up on the Algorithmic Trading page, alongside building and scheduling your own automated strategies. Automation includes safeguards, such as auto pausing when an account is not tradable, so a broken condition does not keep firing.
Two things to keep in mind:
- You are responsible for any strategy you run, including one that copies another trader. Size positions to what you can afford to lose.
- Copy trading still runs inside the rules of your account. Daily loss limits, drawdown, and position limits vary by plan and are shown on the Pricing page and in your account. Copied trades that breach a hard rule can still fail or liquidate a challenge account.
Practice first
Every user gets a free paper trading account, which is a natural place to try following and copying before risking a paid challenge. You can review what happened on your Activity page and track performance on your Dashboard.
Start by watching the Leaderboard, join the Discord conversation, and copy only what you understand. For account specific questions, email [email protected].
