Frequently Asked Questions
about Social Trading

  • What is a Social Trading Platform?

    A social trading platform is a system that connects traders within a network. It allows investors to find and follow experienced traders, while those with proven track records can become signal providers by sharing their strategies. This creates an environment where participants can engage with different trading approaches and observe how others operate in the markets.

  • How does Social Copy Trading work?

    Copy trading links an investor’s account to that of a chosen signal provider. When the provider opens or closes a trade, the same transaction can be executed automatically in the investor’s account, usually in proportion to the account size or pre-set allocation. Many platforms also provide dashboards and social feeds where investors can track performance and manage the strategies they are following.

  • What are the benefits of using social trading tools?

    For newer traders, social trading can provide exposure to different strategies, help in understanding risk management practices, and offer diversification without performing every analysis independently. For experienced traders, it creates an opportunity to share strategies, build visibility within the community, and potentially earn additional income as a signal provider.

  • What are the major risks associated with social trading?

    Social trading involves the same risks as other CFD trading. CFDs are leveraged instruments and carry a high risk of losing money quickly. Copying another trader does not guarantee profits, and past performance is not an indication of future results. Investors should carefully assess whether they understand how CFDs work and whether they can afford the risks involved.

  • What can I trade, and what platforms are supported?

    Social trading networks are often integrated with platforms such as MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and MetaTrader 5 (MT5). This allows copy trading across multiple asset classes, including forex, cryptocurrencies, commodities, indices, and other CFDs, within the MetaTrader environment.

  • How do I get started with a Social Trading App?

    Through a web platform or mobile app, users can navigate to the social trading section and choose whether to participate as an investor (copying trades) or as a signal provider (sharing strategies).
