Before a strategy is activated, it remains hidden from investors in the Social Trading app. To protect investors from risk, certain requirements must be met before a strategy can be activated and be made visible to investors to copy.
Here are some requirements for strategy visibility in the app:
| Filter | Requirements |
|---|---|
| First time deposit |
USD 500 for Social Standard USD 2 000 for Social Pro* |
| KYC | The Strategy Provider must have a fully verified Exness account; including a verified Proof of Identity, Proof of Residence and a complete Economic Profile. |
| Last activity | Within the last 7 days (including weekends) |
| Minimum trades count | 10 closed trades. Any strategies with less than 10 closed trades are not shown on the list. |
| Strategy LifeTime | The first order should have been opened atleast 30 days ago, i.e. strategy lifetime should be greater than 30 days. |
| No stopouts | If a strategy has at least one stopout it will not be shown. |
| The below-mentioned are two preset filters that can be adjusted by the investor to any desired value. |
|
| Return | The Return > 0 is a preset filter that can be removed in the app. |
| Risk Score | The risk score <=8 is a preset filter that can be changed in the app. Any strategy with a risk score lower than the preset amount will not be shown.will not be shown. |
If all previously mentioned requirements are met, these filters can be adjusted to still view the strategies.
* There are 3 possible ways to achieve USD 2 000 equity (for Social Pro account) and make the strategy active:
- The Strategy Provider deposits USD 2 000 in one single transaction as the initial deposit, making the strategy active.
- The Strategy Provider deposits USD 500 or more, but less than USD 2 000 initially, and then he/she deposits more funds additionally until the sum of deposits hits USD 2 000 in total, the strategy becomes active.
- The Strategy Provider deposits USD 500 or more, but less than USD 2000 initially, and then he/she starts trading. Some time in the future the Strategy Provider makes another deposit. If the result of trades and a sum of deposits is USD 2 000, the strategy becomes active.
If all requirements are met, the strategy will be made active and become visible in the Social Trading app for investors. Once active, strategies remain visible even if the strategy equity drops below the minimum amount shown in the requirements above. Strategies that experience a stop out are no longer displayed under any categories or in the list of All Strategies on Social Trading and are only accessible by direct link.
