Copy Trading gained popularity among the traders that do not have advanced trading knowledge or just simply don’t have enough time to commit to trading. In essence, in copy trading one trader’s positions are copied by another trader’s account. It is a part of a wider Social Trading concept that NAGA embraces and represents fully: traders follow each other's methods, copy trades, interact with each other on dedicated platforms (Feed and Messenger).
It is very important that even when you decide to copy trades of another investor, you should always carry your own market analysis before you invest and commit real capital to it. You must understand that even when you copy positions of other traders, your capital is still at risk. Past Performance is not an indication of future performance.
At NAGA we developed an innovative feature that lets you copy others’ trades fully automatically, called Social Autocopy.
Essentially it allows you to automatically copy positions of other traders in the NAGA platform. The same way you get notified in real-time when you follow someone on Instagram or twitter and see their stories or content, in NAGA you “follow/subscribe” to someone else's trades.
We help you to understand the traders trading behavior, and all trades as every profit or loss is transparently displayed. On top of that, NAGA offers you an unique way to follow other traders' trades and has developed an own price-matching algorithm which is absolutely unique.
Why price matching so important: 👉 Markets can be very volatile and in every second prices can change multiple times. If you copy a leader and the position is copied, there might be small network delays (below 1 second) and prices might have changed. However: Our algorithm will match the exact opening and closing price of the person that you are copying. You do not have to worry about latency or delays at any given time.
After you’ve done the initial research and analysis, familiarised yourself with the community on NAGA you are now ready to click THAT magic button.
Visit the Leaderboard, select the trader you would like to copy and hit the ‘Autocopy’ button.
What they trade - you trade.
You also decide on how much you would like to invest by adjusting the Autocopy ratio or set the specific investment amount anytime in the Autocopy section.
You can set Stop Loss and Take Profit limits to secure your trading profits and limit your potential losses.
Autocopy feature offers real-time execution and price matching and allows you full flexibility of investing
The minimum amount you need to Autocopy someone basically depends on the Amount option you choose:
Relative to Leader
Fixed Amount per Trade
➡️ If you choose “relative to the lead trader” you basically copy proportionally to the lead trader's position size. If for example the lead trader buys 10 Apple shares and your %-ratio is 10% you will buy 1 Apple share. This gives you flexibility to diversify amongst lead traders and allocate funds dynamically.
➡️ If you chose the Fixed Amount per Trade the minimum amount needs to be at least $50 (or equivalent).
➡️ For the “Relative to Leader option”, the minimum amount is the minimum available position.
Autocopy has fees that make the feature beneficial for both the lead traders (the ones being copied) and the copiers! More on those here.
You can also have others Autocopy you and earn Copy Premium!
