BloFin Copy Trading Explained: How to Follow Top Traders and Cut Your Fees
Copy trading on BloFin allows any user to automatically replicate the live futures trades of experienced traders on the platform. When a Master Trader opens or closes a position, that action is mirrored in the follower's account according to settings configured in advance. BloFin offers three separate copy modes, each with different logic for how the follower's capital is allocated per trade, giving followers meaningful control over risk even while following another trader.
The Three Copy Modes
Fixed Amount Mode
The follower specifies a fixed dollar amount of margin to use for each copied trade, regardless of the size of the Master Trader's position. Every trade uses exactly the set amount. Best suited for followers who want predictable, consistent per-trade exposure.
Fixed Ratio Mode
The follower sets a multiplier determining how their margin per order relates to the Master Trader's position size. Formula: Margin Per Order = Multiplier x Master Trader's Order Value / Follower's Fixed Leverage. Best suited for followers who want their risk exposure to mirror the Master Trader's sizing decisions proportionally.
Smart Copy Mode
Smart Copy scales the follower's investment automatically in proportion to how much of their copy account balance the Master Trader is deploying relative to their own capital. Best suited for followers who want to closely mirror a trader's overall portfolio approach with automated sizing.
How to Start Copy Trading on BloFin
Step 1: Register on BloFin Through TetherBack
Create your BloFin account through the official TetherBack link to earn 50% cashback on all trading fees, including those generated through copy trades. Registration sequence matters.
Step 2: Transfer Assets to Your Copy Trading Account
Transfer the capital you intend to use into the copy trading account from your funding or USDT-M account. This isolates your copy trading capital from your manual trading activity.
Step 3: Browse the Master Trader Leaderboard
Review each trader's realized P&L, win rate, maximum drawdown, follower count, and trading pair focus. Past performance does not guarantee future results but is the most practical evaluation tool available.
Step 4: Configure Your Copy Settings
Choose your copy mode, investment amount, margin mode (copy trader's mode, cross, or isolated), leverage, and optional TP/SL levels at the order level.
Step 5: Submit and Begin Copying
After confirming settings, trades executed by the Master Trader will be automatically mirrored in your account in near real time.
Step 6: Monitor and Adjust
You can manually close positions, adjust TP/SL, stop copying, or modify allocation parameters at any time from the copy trading dashboard.
Profit Sharing: What Followers Pay Master Traders
The standard profit-sharing rate is 10% of the follower's net profit per settlement period. Net Profit = Position Profit or Loss - Opening Fee - Closing Fee. Profit sharing only applies when the follower generates a net profit. The settlement period runs from Monday 00:00 UTC to Sunday 23:59:59 UTC, with distributions paid every Monday at 3:00 AM UTC.
Scenario | Detail |
Position profit | +50 USDT |
Opening fee | 5 USDT |
Closing fee | 10 USDT |
Net profit | 35 USDT |
Profit share (10%) | 3.50 USDT to Master Trader |
Follower keeps | 31.50 USDT |
