Profit Sharing Overview
Lead traders can earn up to 13% profit sharing from copy traders' successful trades. This incentivizes skilled traders to share strategies while allowing followers to learn from experts.
Key Profit Sharing Rules
Daily Calculation & Settlement
- The system tracks each copy trade's profit/loss, accumulating results over a 24-hour cycle (00:00-23:59 UTC+8).
- Profitable trades undergo:
▪️ Fee deduction
▪️ Preliminary profit sharing withholding - If actual payable profits are lower than withheld amounts, excess funds return to copy traders' accounts.
- Position-Free Requirement
Profit sharing only occurs when:
▪️ All copied positions are closed
▪️ No active copy relationship exists between trader and follower
▪️ Unsettled positions delay sharing to the next cycle Transparent Settlement
- Cycle: 1 calendar day
- Calculation window: 00:00-23:59 UTC+8
- Settlement time: Next day 00:00 UTC+8
