How ReadiTrades Protects Your Trading Capital: CopyGuard Explained
What Is CopyGuard?
CopyGuard is ReadiTrades' built-in capital protection feature. It monitors your copied trades in real-time and can automatically pause copying if your daily or total losses exceed a threshold you set.
How to Enable CopyGuard
- Go to your dashboard
- Click on your active subscription
- Enable "CopyGuard Protection"
- Set your maximum daily loss (e.g., $50 or 5% of account)
- Set your maximum total loss if desired
What Happens When CopyGuard Triggers
When your daily loss reaches the threshold:
- New trades stop being copied for the rest of the day
- Existing open positions remain active (they are NOT force-closed)
- You receive an email and in-app notification
- Copying resumes automatically the next trading day
CopyGuard vs Stop Loss
CopyGuard is an account-level protection that works across all your copied trades. Stop losses are trade-level and are set by the signal provider. Both work together to protect your capital - learn more in our risk management guide.
Recommended Settings
For beginners, we recommend setting CopyGuard daily loss to 3-5% of your account balance. This allows normal trading room while preventing catastrophic drawdowns.
