Bybit Copy Trading Guide

Copy trading connects followers to a master trader. When the master opens or closes a position, Bybit mirrors the trade according to the follower allocation.

How it works

Followers keep funds in their own Bybit accounts. The master account provides trading signals through the exchange copy trading system. Position size depends on the follower settings and available balance.

What to evaluate

MetricMeaning
ROIReturn generated by the strategy over a selected period.
DrawdownLargest historical decline from a balance peak.
FollowersDemand for the strategy and available capacity.
RiskLeverage, volatility and strategy behavior during market stress.

Risk first

No copy trading strategy can guarantee profit. Start small, monitor performance and stop copying if risk becomes uncomfortable.
