Frequently asked questions
What is a forex trade copier?
A trade copier automatically duplicates trades from a master account to one or more follower accounts, adjusting lot size by your rules. It is used by money managers, signal providers and traders running several accounts.
Local or cloud copier: which is better?
A local copier runs on your PC or VPS next to the terminals and is usually faster and fully under your control. A cloud copier needs no installation and runs 24/7 on the vendor’s servers, but you pay a subscription and depend on their infrastructure.
Can I copy trades between MT4, MT5 and cTrader?
Some copiers only work inside one platform family. Others copy across platforms and brokers, for example MT4 to cTrader. Check the platform coverage in each review before you buy.
Are trade copiers allowed by prop firms?
Rules differ by firm. Many allow copying between your own accounts but restrict copying third-party signals. Always check your prop firm’s terms before connecting a copier.
How are the scores calculated?
Each copier is rated on platform coverage, speed and reliability, features and risk controls, and value for money. The overall score summarises those ratings, and every review explains the reasoning.
