# Change a risk ratio and allocation method for a subscription

You, as an investor, can change risk ratios and allocation methods applied to your copy-trading subscriptions.

The allocation method and risk ratio are used to recalculate position sizes when positions are copied from a master account to your investment account.

To change a risk ratio and allocation method:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
In the main menu, expand **B2COPY**, and then click **My Accounts** under the desired platform, if more than one is available.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click the investment account in the list.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
In the account details, go to **Subscriptions**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Select the subscription.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
In the subscription row, click ⋮ (the **Actions** button) and select **Edit** in the dropdown.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
In the **Edit subscription** popup:

* In the **Allocation method** dropdown, select another method for your subscription.
* In the **Risk ratio** field, enter a numeric value. For decimal values, use a dot `.` as a decimal separator. The risk ratio only applies to the allocation methods that use it in their formulas.‍

For more information on available allocation methods, refer to [Allocation methods for copy trading and MAM](/copy-trading-pamm-and-mam-concepts/allocation-methods-for-copy-trading-and-mam.md).

{% step %}

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.b2copy.b2broker.com/user-guide/manage-subscriptions/change-a-risk-ratio-and-allocation-method-for-a-subscription.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
