Copy Trading Low DD: A Simplified Guide

Copy Trading Low DD is a product designed for individuals seeking to enter the Forex Trading world with a larger trading account and minimal risk. It’s also suitable for those pursuing a Prop Firm challenge or verification or experienced traders adhering to strict Prop Firm limits. This account has a maximum daily drawdown (DD) limit of 4.9% and a total account DD limit of 9.9%. It also features automated safety mechanisms, including automatic order closure and new order suspension in emergencies.

Who Is This Service For?

Copy Trading Low DD is a product designed for Forex trading beginners who have a substantial account balance, ideally 10,000, and want to learn by copying my trades as an experienced trader while potentially generating extra income.

This Copy Trading service is suitable for traders in different situations:

• Beginners who want to start trading with a solid strategy but have the necessary capital to sustain market fluctuations.

• Experienced traders who struggle with consistency and are looking for a more structured approach.

• Consistent traders who prefer automation due to a lack of time or patience.

• Traders with larger capital who prefer a more conservative approach – Since this product adheres to prop firm risk management rules, losses are limited, offering more stability and peace of mind while protecting your capital from aggressive strategies and large drawdowns.

• Individuals aiming to attempt a prop firm challenge, as this copy trading service follows the default risk limits of the largest prop firm, FTMO.

However, it is important to note that using copy trading services for prop firm challenges or verifications is at your own risk. Most prop firms do not allow or recommend copy trading. I offer this service with an educational purpose, helping traders understand risk management strategies. I do not support or encourage using this service as an automated way to pass a challenge or verification. As an FTMO trader, I must make this point absolutely clear.

Adherence to Prop Firm Rules

Copy Trading Low DD follows the risk management principles of FTMO, one of the largest, oldest, and most reputable prop firms, which I have been using since 2020.

This is a regular trading account that adheres to standard trading rules, typically associated with 1:100 leverage. The strategy follows essential risk management principles:

• No order placements during major news events

• No overnight or weekend positions

• Strict adherence to daily and overall loss limits

By following these guidelines, the account maintains structured risk control, ensuring a disciplined approach to trading. This allows traders to operate with more stability and security, reducing the risk of losing capital due to aggressive strategies or unexpected market movements.

Prop Firm Compatibility

Most prop firms do not allow or recommend copy trading services. While some might initially permit tools like MQL5, they can later restrict or block such activity, preventing trade copying through that method. Additionally, prop firms monitor IP addresses—if multiple accounts are identified as trading from the same source, they could be flagged, potentially leading to the loss of a challenge, verification, or funded account.

To minimize these risks, I recommend using the FX Blue Trade Copier, which allows trade copying directly on your computer or VPS. Even if you are using this service for educational purposes, to understand how risk management works in a structured trading environment, it is essential to ensure that your setup aligns with best practices for security and compliance with trading conditions.

Trading Strategy

I use a technical trading approach with fundamental awareness. My strategy is based on:

• Small lot sizes with scalping.
• Trading Forex Currency pairs, indices and metals
• No Stop Loss or Take Profit per order – instead, I use a system-based technical stop loss to manage risk.

I divide risk across at least four parts, ensuring that not all capital is exposed at once. This is not a strict rule, as in some cases, the division may be even smaller. However, my general approach is to manage risk conservatively. For example, if the daily loss limit is 4.9%, I typically utilize around 2.5% on average, maintaining a buffer to avoid excessive drawdowns.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a minimum amount required to use this service?

Yes, to use the Copy Trading Low DD service, the minimum account balance is 20.000,00 This minimum is necessary to ensure the risk management strategies are effective and provide adequate capital for the conservative approach of this service. Smaller accounts may not be able to apply the same risk control measures, making it less suitable for this type of trading.

What do I need to start?

• To use the service, you need to have an account with a broker that offers low spreads, as I open and close my orders very quickly. The ideal situation is for your account to be with the same broker as mine, which is IC Markets or IC Trading or FTMO. This will ensure better execution conditions and more efficient trades.
• A PC or VPS to run MetaTrader and the FX Blue copy trading software.
• A valid credit card to sign up.

Can I use any copy trading software?

Yes, but my support is only for VPS-based FX Blue setups.

Do I need a VPS?

A VPS is highly recommended for stability, especially for those using this service while attempting a prop firm challenge or verification. A VPS ensures that your trades are executed without interruption, providing reliable execution and helping you keep risk management under control. Without a VPS, there is a risk of missing trades or experiencing slippage, which can potentially result in failure to pass a prop firm challenge. I personally use this VPS and find it to be the best in terms of cost, reliability, and performance.

What happens if I don’t configure my copy trading system?

You must configure the system yourself. I provide all the necessary guidance, but setup is your responsibility.

What if I need help with the setup?

I provide full instructions to make the setup easy. If you need extra help, I offer setup services for a fee. If you get a VPS through my affiliate link, the setup fee is €15. If you already have a VPS, the fee is €30.

  • Your order number

  • VPS credentials

How can I stop my subscription?

Cancelling your subscription is simple and fully automated. You don’t need to request anything; everything can be done with a single click directly from your account.

Can I copy the trades using any broker?

You can use any broker, but for the best results, it is highly recommended to choose a broker with low spreads. Since I open and close orders very quickly, a high-spread broker may lead to slippage and execution delays. The ideal setup is to have your account with the same broker as mine, IC Markets or IC Trading or FTMO, to ensure optimal trade execution and efficiency.

Can I share my Subscription with others?

You cannot share your subscription with others, as the information provided is exclusive to you. Sharing is strictly prohibited and may result in the cancellation of your subscription without prior notice, without the right to a refund, and your account will be permanently banned from the blog.

What is the difference between Copy Trading and Copy Trading Low DD?

Copy Trading Low DD is specifically designed for traders who want a more conservative risk profile, making it ideal for individuals looking to apply prop firm rules. It limits losses to maintain a lower drawdown, following risk management strategies typically used by prop firms like FTMO. This approach is particularly useful for traders who wish to protect their capital while learning the ropes of risk management in professional environments.

Can I use Copy Trading Low DD for prop firm challenges?

While Copy Trading Low DD follows a risk management structure that mirrors the rules of prop firms like FTMO, it is not recommended to use it solely for prop firm challenges or verifications. This service is intended as an educational tool to help traders understand risk management and trading strategies. Using it in a challenge is at your own risk, as prop firms do not typically allow or endorse copy trading.

How does Copy Trading Low DD help with prop firm risk management?

The Copy Trading Low DD service limits risk by following structured guidelines similar to the ones used by FTMO and other prop firms. This includes daily loss limits, position size control, and strict stop-loss management. By using this service, traders can better understand how to stay within risk limits, a crucial skill for anyone aiming to trade with a prop firm. However, keep in mind that prop firms do not recommend using copy trading, and this service should be seen as a learning tool rather than a shortcut to pass challenges or verifications.

What are the risk parameters for Copy Trading Low DD?

The Copy Trading Low DD service focuses on conservative risk management, aiming to reduce drawdowns to a minimum. The typical daily loss limit is set around 2.5%, even though the overall loss limit could be up to 4.9%. This ensures that risk is spread out and that the account has more protection. This type of risk management is in line with the risk controls of prop firms like FTMO, which prioritize capital preservation over aggressive trading strategies.

What happens if I exceed the risk limits in Copy Trading Low DD?

The Copy Trading Low DD service is designed to keep your account within safe risk boundaries. If you exceed the predefined risk parameters, the system will either stop copying trades or adjust settings to align with the desired risk tolerance. However, it is ultimately your responsibility to monitor your account and ensure that the risk limits are maintained, especially if you’re applying it to a prop firm challenge or verification.

The system will control my orders, not the ones you open on your own or are copying from another trader.

Can I customize the risk settings for Copy Trading Low DD?

Yes, Copy Trading Low DD allows you to customize the risk settings based on your preferences. You can adjust parameters such as lot sizes, daily loss limits, and equity-based loss stops to suit your capital and risk appetite. These settings can also be tailored to comply with prop firm requirements, ensuring that your trading follows professional risk management practices.
