Panduan Copy Trading MEXC: Cara Menyalin Trader Top

Copy trading on MEXC allows you to automatically replicate the trades of experienced, verified traders in real time. When a trader you follow opens or closes a position, the same action is executed proportionally in your account. This allows inexperienced traders to benefit from expert strategies without needing to analyze markets themselves.

MEXC's copy trading platform covers futures contracts, where traders use leverage to amplify returns. You set the maximum amount to allocate to copy trading and the maximum you're willing to copy per trade. Your risk is limited by these parameters — you can never lose more than your allocated copy trading balance.

The platform displays detailed performance statistics for all eligible lead traders: their win rate, profit/loss history, maximum drawdown, ROI over various time periods, number of followers, and their typical trading style. This transparency helps you evaluate traders objectively rather than relying on marketing.

Navigate to the "Copy Trading" section on MEXC and browse the lead trader rankings. The default view shows traders ranked by ROI, but you should evaluate multiple metrics before choosing who to copy. Key metrics to examine: 30-day ROI (returns), win rate (percentage of profitable trades), maximum drawdown (largest peak-to-trough loss), the number of trades placed, average trade duration, and follower count.

Avoid traders with very short track records (under 30 days) regardless of their displayed ROI — exceptional short-term performance often reflects luck rather than skill. Look for traders with 90+ day histories showing consistent returns with drawdowns below 30%. Very high ROI (500%+) with high drawdown is a red flag indicating high-risk gambling strategies rather than sustainable trading.

Also consider the trader's trading frequency. High-frequency traders place many small trades — their strategy might produce good stats but frequent small fees can erode your returns at the copy trading level. Swing traders who hold positions for days tend to have lower friction costs and are often more suitable for copy trading.

After selecting a lead trader, click "Copy" to configure your copy parameters. The most important settings are: copy amount (total USDT allocated to copying this trader), copy amount per order (maximum USDT invested in any single copied trade), and whether to use fixed amount or proportional copying.

Fixed amount copy means each of the trader's positions is copied at your set dollar amount, regardless of how much they invest themselves. Proportional copying mirrors the trader's exact position sizing relative to their capital — if they risk 10% of their balance on a trade, you risk 10% of your copy amount. Proportional copying better reflects the trader's actual risk management but can lead to highly concentrated positions during aggressive trading phases.

Set a stop-loss for copy trading overall — this automatically stops copying if your copy trading balance drops below a threshold you're comfortable with. This is your ultimate protection against a lead trader experiencing a catastrophic drawdown. A reasonable copy trading stop-loss is 20-30% of your allocated copy amount.

Once you start copy trading, monitor your performance regularly through the "My Copy" dashboard. This shows your active copied positions, closed trade history, total PnL, and performance versus the lead trader. It is normal for slight discrepancies between your results and the lead trader's results due to execution timing and slippage on smaller position sizes.

Regularly review your lead trader's ongoing performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results — a trader who performed well for 6 months may develop a prolonged losing streak. If a trader's win rate drops significantly or their drawdown exceeds your comfort level, stop copying them and reassess your strategy.

Diversifying across 2-3 lead traders with different trading styles (some trend-following, some counter-trend, different timeframes) can reduce concentration risk. If one trader has a bad period, the others may offset the losses. Avoid copying more than 5 traders simultaneously — the benefit of diversification diminishes and management becomes complex.
