What is Copy Ratio?

Copy Ratio determines how much of the trader's position size you want to copy.

How It's Calculated

Copy Ratio = Your Capital / Trader's Capital

Examples

Example 1: Small Account

• Your capital: $1,000

• Trader's capital: $100,000

• Copy Ratio: 0.01 (1%)

• If trader opens $10,000 position → You open $100 position

Example 2: Matching Size

• Your capital: $10,000

• Trader's capital: $10,000

• Copy Ratio: 1.0 (100%)

• If trader opens $1,000 position → You open $1,000 position

Example 3: Larger Position

• Your capital: $50,000

• Trader's capital: $10,000

• Copy Ratio: 5.0 (500%)

• If trader opens $1,000 position → You open $5,000 position

Recommended Copy Ratio

The system automatically calculates a recommended ratio based on:

• Your current Gate.io balance

• The trader's total assets

You can:

• Use the recommended ratio (safer)

• Set a custom ratio (more control, higher risk)

Higher Copy Ratio = Higher Risk

• Ratio > 1.0 means you're trading larger positions than the trader

• This amplifies both profits and losses

• Start with lower ratios (0.1 - 0.5) to test
