Risk guide

Bybit copy trading risks

Copy trading reduces manual work, but it does not remove market risk. Before connecting to any master account, understand what can go wrong and how to limit exposure.

Drawdown is normal

Even strong strategies can have periods when the account balance declines from a previous peak. Evaluate maximum drawdown together with ROI, trading frequency and market conditions.

Leverage can amplify losses

If a copied strategy uses leverage, losses and liquidation risk can grow quickly during sharp market moves. Use an allocation that remains comfortable during volatility.

Risk controls for followers

Start with a smaller amount, avoid using all available capital, monitor current positions and stop copying if the strategy behavior no longer matches your risk tolerance.
