Link positions

Learn how to link open positions on investment accounts with corresponding master account positions via the Admin panel

Applicable to copy trading and MAM

You can link open positions on investment accounts with the corresponding positions opened on master accounts. Positions can be linked if they are opened for identical symbols.

This may be useful in the following cases:

  • When migrating data from a third-party platform to the B2COPY investment platform.

  • When it’s needed to open a position on an investment account later than the corresponding position is opened on a master account.

Before linking open positions on an investment account with the positions on a master account, make sure that the investment account is subscribed to the master account. {% endhint}
