Copy trading FAQ
Master and follower accounts, risk multipliers, supported platforms, and group limits.
How does copy trading work?
One master account’s fills are replicated to follower accounts in the same group. Open dash.hextrade.io/copy-trade-groups. Setup: Copy trading.
Which platforms can be master or follower?
ProjectX, Tradovate, NinjaTrader, Rithmic, and Volumetrica. Mixed groups among those five are supported.
What does the risk multiplier do?
It scales follower quantity vs the master. 1.0 = same size, 0.5 = half, 2.0 = double. Set it per follower against that account’s capital and prop rules.
Will deleting a group close follower positions?
No. Deleting a group stops future copies. Existing follower positions are unchanged. Deactivate a group if you only want to pause copying.
Why can’t I create another group?
Copy-trade group count can be capped by your subscription. Upgrade if the dashboard reports a group limit.
Can I copy from Tradovate to TradeLocker or MT5?
Not through copy-trade groups. Those platforms run algorithms and webhooks but are not copy master/follower.
