How it works
What do I actually need to do?
Connect your exchange's API key (Binance, Bitget or Bybit), set your position size, and switch off any coins you'd rather skip. Everything else runs on its own.
Is there a minimum deposit?
No. You set your own margin and leverage. Just remember that the smaller the balance, the more a single stop-loss hurts.
What if my laptop or internet goes down?
Nothing changes. Positions live in your exchange account and run from our system, not from your device.
Do I pay for the chart?
No. Prices for 500+ USDT futures coins on every timeframe, drawings, indicators and bar replay for backtesting are open without an account. A free account keeps your drawings on every device and shows your positions on the chart.
Money & safety
Where is my money held?
In your own exchange account, always. We only hold an API key that can trade. Withdrawals stay disabled.
What does AUM mean at OpenTrades?
Assets Under Management (AUM) = lead trader's account balance (OpenTrades) + total copy traders' account balances (members). It's a combined figure, not money we hold or manage. Capital stays in each owner's exchange account, and the API keys carry no withdrawal permission.
Results & risk
Is profit guaranteed?
No. The numbers here are real, but past results don't promise future ones. Only trade with money you can afford to lose.
When does the record start?
On the day the first account started copying; the date is on the AUM card. Every trade since then is listed, winners and losers alike, across every connected account.
Membership & payment
What differs between tiers besides length?
Access is identical: automatic copying, the journal, the chart, Academy. What differs is length, the price per day (longer is cheaper), and Hodl includes a second account.
What if I use two or three exchanges?
Connect your first account, then add add-ons from the Membership page: one add-on per extra account, three accounts at most (Binance, Bitget, Bybit). With Hodl, the second account connects right away at no extra cost.
Can I switch tiers?
Yes. When you renew, pick any tier. Its length is added to what you have left, and your card follows the tier you bought last.
What happens when my membership ends?
Copying stops opening new positions. Positions still open in your account aren't closed for you, so manage them on the exchange. We remind you 3 days before.
How do I pay?
SeaBank or ShopeePay transfer, or USDT on BNB Smart Chain (BEP20). Upload the receipt; the admin usually activates it the same day.
Can I get a refund?
No. Payments are final and non-refundable for any reason. Signing up or paying means you accept our Terms & Conditions.
Affiliate
Who can join?
Every active OpenTrades member. Your code is on the Affiliate page of your dashboard.
What does my friend do?
Open your link, or type your code at sign-up or checkout. Once is enough; it stays on their account.
Do renewals earn commission?
Yes. Every membership payment of theirs that clears pays you 20%, as long as you're an active member then.
When and how am I paid?
Once your balance is at least about $6, the admin transfers it by hand within 7 working days to the bank, e-wallet or USDT (BEP20) address you saved.
Can I change my code?
Once, 4 to 16 letters or digits. Friends who used the old code still count as yours.
Can I see who signed up?
Yes. The Affiliate page shows each friend's first name, when they joined, their status and the commission from each order.
