Before a strategy is activated, it remains hidden from investors in the catalog. Specific requirements must be met for a strategy to be activated and made visible to investors.
Strategy availability by direct link
Once the minimum deposit requirement is fulfilled, a strategy can be accessed with a direct link. Minimum deposits for Standard and Pro accounts depend on the region and payment method used. Check out the account types and conditions for Copy Trading.
Strategy availability for investing
Once active, strategies remain visible but may become unavailable for investing if the strategy equity drops below the minimum amount or if the total equity exceeds the maximum limit requirements.
