- Go to the CopyTrade page
- Browse through the list of traders

Connect Your Gate.io Account
On the trader detail page, connect your Gate.io account by entering your credentials.

Set Your Copy Ratio
The copy ratio determines how much of your capital will be used relative to the trader's position size. For example, if a trader uses $10,000 and your ratio is 0.1, you'll use $1,000.
- After successful registration, you'll see your current balance displayed
- The system will automatically calculate a recommended ratio based on your balance and the trader's balance
- You can use the recommended ratio or enter a custom ratio
- Lower ratio = smaller position sizes (less risk, less potential profit)
- Higher ratio = larger position sizes (more risk, more potential profit)

Once everything is set up, click "Start Copy Trade" to begin automatically copying the trader's positions.
- Click "Start Copy Trade" button
- The system will monitor the trader's positions in real-time
- When the trader opens a position, Copy-Coin will automatically open a similar position on your Gate.io account
- When the trader closes a position, your position will be closed automatically
