When the trader you copy opens, adds to, trims or closes a position, your account does the same, scaled to your settings. Orders are placed in your own account on the venue; Perp.ag never holds your funds in a shared pool.

​
Start a copy

1

Open the trader's profile and click Copy Trade

The form opens: Trades by this trader on this venue will be mirrored to your account.
2

Choose the account to Copy with

Pick one of your accounts. If it is not ready, the form offers shortcuts: Enable trading, Deposit or Fund from Main. Each account copies one trader at a time; if it already copies someone, you are asked whether to stop that copy first. Positions the old copy opened stay open.
3

Set your size and risk

See the settings below.

Click Start Copying

The copy is live. Edit it later from Copy Trade → My Copy Trades (the button becomes Save Changes).
To watch a trader without copying, click Track instead: the same form opens with copying switched off.

Pause or stop a copy

  • Pause: in My Copy Trades, flip the copy’s toggle to Paused. Its settings are kept.

Either way, positions the copy already opened stay in your account for you to manage or close.

A copy fills after the trader, so your entry and exit prices differ a little from theirs. On fast markets, on thin books, or when copying a maker who trades with limit orders, that gap can be significant. Test with a paper copy first.
