What's the Strategy protection feature all about?

Strategy protection hides key trade information from non-copy traders and delays updates for copy traders by 5 minutes. This ensures that your trade strategies remain confidential and reduces the risk of slippage.

When enabled, Strategy Protection hides key information about ongoing trades from non-copy traders. This includes details such as:

  • Crypto pair

  • Trading time

  • Position size

  • Mark price

  • Entry price

For copy traders, all ongoing orders and notifications are displayed with a 5-minute delay. This delay helps to maintain the integrity of lead traders' strategies.

With strategy protection, your entries are protected and possible slippage issues through external signal replication by another Lead trader are minimized, thus, maintaining the validity of trading strategies.

What's the hidden Personal trades feature all about?

The hidden Personal trades feature allows lead traders to hide your personal trades from other users. When this feature is enabled, your personal trades aren't visible to others, and the trader isn't featured on the leaderboard.

By default, visible personal trades are displayed with a 5-minute delay. This ensures a basic level of privacy even if the feature isn't explicitly enabled.

By hiding personal trades and removing the trader from the leaderboard, this feature ensures your trading activities aren't subjected to public scrutiny.
