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, and display 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 proportionally copy trades based on the amount you entered.
You can customize other trade settings as follows:
| Settings | Description | |
| 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 Lead Trader Growth Program to have the option to adjust the minimum copy amount. | |
| Cost per Order (Fixed Amount Mode) | Margin per order | |
| Margin Mode |
| |
| Leverage |
Note: When editing leverage settings during copying, the leverage might fail to adjust if there are open positions. | |
| Take Profit and Stop Loss | After successfully copying a position, the system will automatically place a TP/SL order for that position. Tips:
| |
| Maximum Cost Per Order | When the contract order cost reaches the maximum ratio, the system will place an order using 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. Subsequently, 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 based on the percentage of the 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. In that case, the stop loss amount would be 100 * (1 - 60%)= 40 USDT. When the margin balance falls below 40 USDT, the 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. For example, if User A transfers out 50 USDT and the margin balance remaining in the copy portfolio is 160 USDT, the stop loss amount will be adjusted to 160 * (1 - 60%) = 64 USDT. | |
4. Read and agree to the service agreement, then 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’s open positions prior to clicking [Copy] will be copied via market orders if the market price is more favorable 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 expose your positions to higher risks. Therefore, it is essential to monitor your portfolio and positions closely.
- If the lead trader holds multiple positions or opens positions frequently while 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 prevent copy failure.
- Additionally, if the lead trader sets 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 unless you have an unlock option available.
1. How to manage my portfolio?
1. Click [Copy Trader]-[Copy Overview].
2. Here you can view your current and closed copy portfolios.
Ongoing copy portfolios:
- [Adjust Balance]: Add or withdraw copy trading funds. The maximum copy trading amount is 200,000 USDT, and the maximum transferable amount is the available balance of the portfolio minus the minimum copy trading amount and the profit share amount. Please note that you cannot transfer funds out when there are open positions in the portfolio.
- [Settings]:
- Adjust the cost per order (ranges from 10 USDT to 1,000 USDT). It cannot exceed the total copy trading amount.
- Switch Copy Modes: Click on the corresponding tab of the Copy Mode (Fixed Amount or Fixed Ratio) that you would like to change to. Kindly note that all positions must be closed and must meet the minimum margin indicated by the lead trader before switching copy modes. In addition, lock-up period will also be reset and restarted.
- [Stop Copying]: Close the copy portfolio. If there are open positions, the system will immediately close them at market price, settle the profit, and transfer the remaining assets back to your Spot Wallet. If the [Stop Copying] button is grayed out, it means the portfolio has a lock-up period. To stop copying the portfolio, hover over the [Stop Copying] button, and click [Unlock Now].
