2023-08-22 04:13
1. Log in to your Binance account and go to [Trade] - [Copy Trading].
2. Select [Futures] on the top tab, choose a portfolio and click [Copy]. You can sort and filter portfolios by:
  • Timeframes: 7/30/90 days’ performance
  • Lead trader performance metrics: ROI, PNL, MDD, Copy Traders, Copy Trader PNL, Sharpe Ratio
  • Advanced filters: Hide full portfolios, show API portfolios, show copy-ready portfolios that align with your asset level and are ready for immediate copying.
3. You can copy by [Fixed Amount] or [Fixed Ratio].
  • Fixed Amount: You can set a fixed amount per trade.
  • Fixed Ratio: You can set a total portfolio investment amount, and the system will copy trade proportionally based on the amount you entered.
You can customize other settings for your trade.
SettingsDescription
Copy Amount
Total investment amount range is 10 - 200,000 USDT
Note: The default minimum copy amount is 10 USDT. Lead traders can apply for the Binance Futures Copy Trading Elite Trader Program to have the option to adjust the minimum copy amount.
Cost per Order (Fixed Amount Mode)Margin per order
Margin Mode
  • [Lead Trader’s Margin Mode]: You can follow the lead trader's margin mode or set a fixed margin mode.
  • [Fixed Margin Mode]: Select either the Cross or the Isolated Margin mode.
Leverage
  • [Follow the Lead Trader]: Follow the lead trader's leverage.
  • [Fixed Leverage]: Select from 1x to 10x leverage.
Take Profit and Stop LossAfter successfully copying a position, the system will automatically place a TP/SL order for this position.
Maximum Cost Per OrderWhen the contract order cost reaches the maximum ratio, the system will place an order with the maximum order cost.
Portfolio Stop Loss
When the overall portfolio margin reaches the portfolio's stop loss point, all active positions will be closed at market price. The portfolio will be closed and the remaining funds will be automatically transferred back to the user’s Spot Wallet.
The stop loss amount will be updated base on the percentage * margin balance when a transfer or edit portfolio action is conducted.
Example:
User A copied a portfolio with 100 USDT and set 60% as the portfolio stop loss rate. The stop loss amount would be 100 * (1 - 60%) = 40 USDT. When the margin balance is below 40 USDT, stop loss will be triggered.
*Please note that the stop loss amount (40 USDT) is only a trigger amount. The final amount of USDT to be received is subject to market conditions. It is possible that the user’s total margin would be lost in extreme market situations.
If User A transfers out 50 USDT and the margin balance remains in the copy portfolio is 160 USDT, the stop loss amount will be changed to 160 * (1 - 60%) = 64 USDT.
4. Read and agree to the service agreement and click [Copy] to start copying trades. The investment amount will be transferred from your Spot Wallet to the Copy Trading account.
5. Any lead trader open positions prior to clicking [Copy] will be copied via market orders if the market price is better than the lead trader's entry price. If the market price is not better than the lead trader’s entry price, the position won’t be copied.
Please note:
  • During copying, the lead trader may add margin to their positions, which could cause your positions to be exposed to higher risks. Please monitor your portfolio and positions closely.
  • When the lead trader holds multiple positions or opens positions frequently and you’re using the [Fixed Amount] mode, your portfolio may not have enough margin to follow their trades. Please monitor your portfolio closely and adjust the copy amount or cost per order amount to avoid copy failure.
  • If the lead trader set a lock-up period for their portfolio, you’ll see a note. Please confirm that you’ve read and understood it before copying the portfolio. Once confirmed, you won’t be able to stop copying, adjust portfolio stop loss, or transfer out during the lock-up period.
