Can I copy trade from another account?

Modified on Fri, 24 Apr at 7:42 PM

Hantec Trader permits copy trading between your own Challenge Accounts, provided certain conditions are met. The total combined capital across all linked accounts must not exceed $300,000, and one account must be clearly assigned as the “Master” account, with the others acting as “Follower” accounts under the same ownership.

Copy trading between different individuals is strictly prohibited. This includes the use of cloud-based copy trading platforms such as Social Trader Tools, Traders Connect, or Duplikum. Any breach of these rules may result in warnings or account termination.

At Hantec Trader, copy trading is allowed under specific conditions to maintain fairness, transparency, and compliance with company policies. Please review the guidelines below carefully.

Permitted Copy Trading Activities

Copy Trading Between Your Own Hantec Trader Challenge Accounts
Traders may copy trades across multiple Hantec Trader Challenge Accounts that they personally own. However, the total allocated capital across these accounts must not exceed $300,000.

One account must act as the “Master” account, while the remaining accounts function as “Follower” accounts under the same user.

Restricted Copy Trading Activities

Copy Trading Between Different Individuals
Copying trades between accounts held by different individuals is strictly forbidden. This includes accounts owned by friends, family members, or third parties. Offering or participating in account management services or “challenge passing” services is also considered a violation.

Use of External Copy Trading Software (Cloud-Based Services)
The use of cloud-based trade copying services—such as Social Trader Tools, Traders Connect, or Duplikum—is not permitted.

Use of VPS-based trade copiers is allowed only when copying trades between accounts owned by the same individual.

Monitoring and Detection

Hantec Trader utilizes both automated systems and manual oversight to identify potential violations. The following factors are monitored:

Matching Trade Details: Identical entry and exit points, lot sizes, instruments, and execution times across accounts

Synchronized Activity: Trades opened simultaneously with identical parameters

Group Trading Behavior: Multiple accounts executing the same strategies or trades, particularly when ownership differs

Policy Violations

If a breach of the copy trading policy is identified, Hantec Trader reserves the right to take appropriate action depending on the severity. This may include issuing a warning or proceeding with immediate account termination.
