Copy trading

Status: Primarily roadmap / prototype — treat capabilities described here as directional until a release explicitly marks them Shipped in-app and in these docs.

What we mean by copy trading

Following or mirroring another trader’s fills or signals with explicit consent, risk limits, and transparent mechanics — not opaque shadow trading.

Why it matters for QuantDesk

Active traders often learn faster when they can:
  • Observe real execution context (not only signals)
  • Apply size and risk caps to copied notionals
  • Pause or disconnect copying instantly

Honest scope today

  • Public docs describe intent and design constraints.
  • Concrete buttons, routes, and fees ship per release — watch release notes and in-app labels.

Risks (always disclose)

  • Past performance does not predict future results
  • Slippage and latency differ between leader and follower
  • Regulatory obligations vary by jurisdiction — obtain your own advice
