Copy positions to investment accounts with master account prices

Learn how to copy positions from master accounts to investment accounts at master account prices, preventing price slippage during order execution

It is possible to copy positions opened on master accounts into the subscribed copy-trading and MAM investment accounts with the prices at which those positions were opened on the master accounts. Moreover, when positions are closed on the master accounts, the corresponding positions are closed on the subscribed investment accounts at the same prices as on the master accounts.

Copying positions with master account prices helps you avoid price slippage when executing orders using the B-Book model.

In the Back Office, specify instrument groups that should be copied with master account prices. Open positions belonging to the specified groups will be copied into investment accounts with master account prices.

In the cases listed below, positions are copied into investment accounts at current market prices regardless of instrument groups to which the positions belong:

• If different symbol name conventions are used to identify the same trading instrument on a master account and the subscribed investment account, the position is copied at its current market price.

• If the option named Copy open positions to new investors is enabled, open positions on a master account are copied to the newly subscribed investment account at their current market prices.

• If an open position on a master account is copied to the subscribed investment accounts after clicking the Resync button in the Back Office, the position is copied at its current market price.

Add groups of instruments that should be copied with master account prices as follows:

1

2
