## Summary

This video demonstrates how to select profitable traders to copy on Binance's copy trading platform. The presenter shares specific filters and settings to identify lead traders with high returns and low drawdowns, and explains how to configure copy amounts and stop-losses.

### Key Points

- **Example of Profitable Copy Trades** [00:02] — People who copied a particular trade made 74% of their copy amount, with some achieving 149% ROI. Scrolling shows many trades with 76% to 154% returns.
- **Accessing Binance Copy Trade Section** [00:48] — Click on the 'Trade' section, then 'Copy' to reach the copy trading page. There are three tabs: Recommended, All Portfolio, and Favorites.
- **Key Filters: ROI, PNL, MDD, AUM, Copiers, Copiers P&L, Sharpe Ratio** [01:43] — Filters include 30-day ROI, PNL (profit/loss), MDD (maximum drawdown), AUM (assets under management), number of copiers, copiers' P&L, and Sharpe ratio.
- **Sorting by Copiers P&L** [03:48] — The presenter prefers sorting by 'Copiers P&L' to ensure people copying the trader are making profit. Example shows a trader with $1,153 copier profit.
- **Checking Trader's Recent Trades** [04:32] — Click on a trader, then 'Copy Trader' to see their last trades and the returns for copiers (e.g., 74%, 149%, 101%).
- **Applying Filters: ROI ≥25%, MDD <10%** [05:31] — Set minimum 30-day ROI of 25% and maximum drawdown less than 10%. Also filter by minimum copy amount (e.g., ≤$10) for small capital.
- **Analyzing Filtered Traders** [06:53] — After filters, a trader with $3,289 profit and only $1.63 loss (MDD) is shown. Another trader has 3% loss and $47 profit.
- **Copying with Fixed Ratio vs Fixed Amount** [07:49] — Fixed ratio follows the trader's allocation percentage; fixed amount lets you set a specific dollar amount per trade, giving more control.
- **Setting Copy Amount and Cost Per Order** [09:00] — Copy amount is total funds for copying; cost per order is the amount per individual trade. Example: $500 total, $100 per order allows 5 trades.
- **Setting Stop-Loss and Confirming** [10:35] — Set a total stop-loss (e.g., $100 loss triggers exit), accept terms, and confirm to start copying.

### Conclusion

By applying filters like minimum ROI, low drawdown, and checking copiers' P&L, you can identify profitable traders to copy. Using fixed amount and setting a stop-loss helps manage risk.

## Transcript

People that copied this particular trade made about 74% of the total copy amount. by the same person. People that copied this trade made about 149% of the total ROI. And look at the total P&amp;L just copying a particular trader. Now look at
the third trade. The people that copied this trade made about 76%. So if I keep scrolling down, you see people that copied this particular trade made 94%. You can see 101% you can see 154% of their total copy amount. So in
this video I'm going to show you the best settings and filters to apply in order to get to copy a particular profitable trade instead of losing your money copying a random trade. So to copy trade on Binance click on this trade
section. So when you click on this trade section it will bring you to this page. Click on copy. Now this is the Binance copy trade section. Now there are different ways you can copy trades on Binance. First of
all, you can see this first tab. This first tab is labelled recommended. Now this is a league of traders that Binance have recommended for you to copy. There are few. So when you come over to the next button called all portfolio. This
one when you click on it, it will show you the list of all lead traders that are possible to be copied. So now these are all the traders that anyone can copy after making a proper research. And then on this last one when
you click on the favorite this is where any of your preferred copy traders will appear. So on this case we're going to focus on on all portfolios. These are list of traders that could be copied after making a proper filtering and
setting that I'm about to show you in this video. So let's get started. So over here the first thing you see in this page is 30 days ROI. This is 30. this page is 30 days ROI. This is 30. This is showing that this is for people
that have been into trade for up to 30 days. You can choose 7 days, you can choose 90 days, you can choose 180 days depending on the kind of filtering you are looking for. Now the second one here says PL. So it is showing this set of
trader based on the amount of profit they have accumulated starting from the person that has made the biggest profit within the last 30 days to the person that has made the less profit. Now as you can see the profit and loss of this
you can see the profit and loss of this person is about 30,450.34. 16,000 within the last 30 days. That's what it means. Now there are also filter this. So when you click on this PNL now you will see a whole lot of
categories that you could use to filter them. For instance, the first one here them. For instance, the first one here said PNL which shows um the um profit and loss margin that this person has made within the last 30 days. So when
you sort based on ROI, you are sorting based on the return of investment, the person that has brought more returns more than the other person will be at the front while the other ones will be at the bottom. Now MDD means maximum
at the bottom. Now MDD means maximum draw down has MDD simply means lost the loss that the person has incurred. Now AUM means asset under management that's total amount of money that this person is managing. And then copiers is showing
the person that has the highest number of people copying him. Now you see this of people copying him. Now you see this copas P&amp;L it will show you the total profit and loss that people copying him has made. And then sharp ratio is what
I'll show you in detail when we start sorting. So let's get up to it. So we have sorted based on profit and loss. Now let's sort based on return on we're sorting based on return on investment. So as you can see here this
investment. So as you can see here this person has had a return on investment of 132% followed by this person that has 90%. what I'll be focusing on, what I focus on when I I filter out for someone to copy his trade. I first of all come
to this place and then I'll click on copers P&amp;L. I want to make sure that the person I'm copying that the people copying him are actually making profit. Okay. So, as you can see, this first person here um has made a profit of
person here um has made a profit of about um a profit of about $1,153. All right. So when I click on this first person here, I want to see what he has been up to recently. So now this is his copy page. So um when I click down, I
want to see what is currently copy. So when I scroll to the left and then I'll click on copy trader. So I want to see what the copy traders has been making what the copy traders has been making for a while now. So when I click on this
for a while now. So when I click on this you will see here that um um the last trades that he initiated the people that copied this particular one made 74% 149 and so on. So when you keep scrolling I keep scrolling um people have made a lot
keep scrolling um people have made a lot it's 1% 151% 100% and then this percent means let's assume you're copying with um $20. 100% of $20 means that you got extra $20. Okay. So depending on the amount you are using to copy. So that is
it. So after that I've seen that okay this ones is really making profit for the people copying him. I will simply click to add it to my favorite while I also filter for other things. Okay. Now these are the things uh these are some
other settings that you have to apply when trying to copy a trade. Come over to this side here written 99 plus that is the filter icon. When you click on is the filter icon. When you click on the filter icon of at least 25% that is
someone that has made about um ROI of 25% within the last 30 days. So I'm going to click on this one. And then what else I also look at is uh
maximum draw down that is um total amount that this person have lost. So this one 30 days maximum draw down. When I click on 30 days maximum draw down I want to pick that the person I want to choose I don't want him to lose about
anything more than 10% within the last 30 days. So I'm going to click on less than 10%. Okay. So after making my filters I will just click to confirm. have to check. If you have a small capital to copy you can come over here.
copy amount. People that want to copy from with $10. can say you want to copy with less or equals to $10. You can click here. That's because not all lead
allows everybody to copy them with $10. So you click here to show you only people that can accept you to copy with $10. Okay. So after making all these settings, you just click to confirm it. So now after applying our filters, this
is what we were able to get. So you can see this first one here. Let us analyze what this first person has. Now you can see that this first person has made a see that this first person has made a profit of $3,289.
Okay. And now look at this person's maximum draw down. This person um loss within the last 30 days is $1.63. I think I think it's a good buy. So what to copy this particular person, I'll just add it to my favorite. I'll click
on the start to add it to my favorite. And then um I'll check the next person also. Look at this person. This person has incurred a loss of 3% within the last 30 days and has made a profit of $47.
So these are the necessary settings and steps you have to apply. Okay. So after finalizing with my decision of who to copy. Now look at what you have to see copy this trader because it's private. If you click to copy, you have to
scrapping up this first traders. So then I'll check on the second trader. So when I click on this second trader now and then I will come over to this place and click on copy. Now when you want to copy a trade there are two ways you can
copy a trade. Either you copy with a fixed ratio or you copy with a fixed amount. Now look at what they all mean. When you're copying with a fixed ratio that means that if the person initiating the trade has um a total of uh $100 and
then he the ratio he said to copy is 50% of his $100. That means he can only use of his $100. That means he can only use $50 to copy. Okay. So if uh you followed if you copy with this fixed ratio that means that you are going to follow
exactly his directive like any amount you have. If you have $1,000 that means 50% of your $1,000 will be used to copy this trade. If you have $5,000 that means that 50% of your $5,000 will be used. So that's a fixed ratio. But you
see the second one fixed amount. You have more control of the amount of money you have to use. If you say it's $10 you want to use, it doesn't matter. Any amount he's using is up to him. But what matters is the amount you fix. So we're
going to be using the fixed amount. When I click on the fixed amount and then um you see uh the options here. Now you see this is cost per order and this is copy amount. Now there are two different things. Copy amount means the total
amount of money you want to use to copy this trade. Okay. So let's assume we this trade. Okay. So let's assume we have $500. Um we type in $500. So this invest for copying this particular trade. Now you see this place I wrote
copy per order. This copy per order is let's assume that um this particular trader is going to open like five different trades each order. How much do you want to use and copy it? So you can say I want to use $100 to copy each
amount. Remember we said let's assume it's $500 we have here. So here we want it's $500 we have here. So here we want to now use um okay let's say okay let's assume that total amount of money we have here is $50. I'm having a typo
error. So let's assume that the total amount of money we have here is $500. So we want to see that each cost per order what we want to use and copy this trade what we want to use and copy this trade is $100. So in essence what it means is
is $100. So in essence what it means is that we can copy about five trade. that we can copy about five trade. Remember $100 * 5 is um 500. Okay. So this cost per order is the amount of money you will use to copy each
particular trade that he initiated. And then this total copy amount this total copy amount is the amount of money that you will use totally and you will be shared to copy individual trade. All right I know I I made it point clear. So
now the next thing you have to do here is you come over to this place and write your total stop-loss. Okay. So if by proventure you lose or let me say if I proventure you lose or let me say if I lose about um $100 exit me from copying
this trade. All right. So after saying all that and then I'll click that um I have read the terms and condition then I'll click to confirm and then start copying my trade. So that is how to choose a right trader to copy.
