GOAT Trade Copier: how it works and what it costs
Updated
The GOAT Trade Copier copies trades from one of your Goat Funded Trader accounts into your other Goat Funded Trader accounts. You trade one account and the others follow it.
From October 12, 2026, the GOAT Trade Copier is the only way copy trading is allowed on Goat Funded Trader accounts.
What it does
- You choose one lead account. This is the account you trade. Then you tick every account that should follow it.
- Each follower has its own sizing, its own settings and its own copy log. Stopping one follower leaves the others running.
- It works on MetaTrader 5, cTrader, Match-Trader and TradeLocker, and it copies between them. An MT5 lead can copy into a cTrader follower.
- Each account gets its own cloud terminal. You don't install anything, and copying continues while your computer is off.
- Our risk checks recognise trades copied through the GOAT Trade Copier, so they are not treated as prohibited copy trading.
Which accounts can I copy between?
You can copy between your own Goat Funded Trader evaluation and funded accounts in any direction:
- Evaluation to Evaluation
- Evaluation to Funded
- Funded to Evaluation
- Funded to Funded
These are not allowed:
- copying from an external account, even if the external account is your own
- copying trades from other traders, signal providers or trading groups
- using any other trade copier, copy trading tool or copier EA
Each of these is a prohibited trading practice and may result in account termination. See Copy trading and signals.
What does it cost?
$2 per account per month. Every account you connect counts, including your lead account.
You need at least two accounts to copy (one lead and one follower), so the lowest price is $4 per month.
| Accounts connected | Monthly price |
|---|---|
| 2 (1 lead + 1 follower) | $4 |
| 3 (1 lead + 2 followers) | $6 |
| 5 (1 lead + 4 followers) | $10 |
There is no limit on how many accounts you can connect.
The copier is a subscription, so you can only pay by card. Crypto and other payment methods are not accepted.
How do I set it up?
- Log in to your Trader Dashboard and open the Copier page at app.goatfundedtrader.com/copier.
- Subscribe. Choose how many accounts you want to connect, including your lead account, and pay by card.
- Pick your lead account. This is the account you will trade.
- Tick every account that should follow it.
- Choose the sizing for each follower (see below). You can also set a lot cap, symbol filters and a copy delay.
- Trade your lead account as usual. Your followers copy each trade automatically.
You can change the sizing and settings while the copier is running.
How are copied trades sized?
You choose a sizing mode for each follower, so two followers of the same lead can be sized differently. There are six modes:
- Equity to equity
- Lot multiplier
- Risk multiplier
- Fixed lot
- Fixed % risk
- Fixed risk amount
In short, you can match each follower to the lead by equity, multiply the lead's lot size, use a fixed lot size, or fix the risk per trade.
On top of the sizing mode, each follower can have a lot cap (the largest lot size the copier will open on that account), symbol filters (which symbols get copied) and a copy delay.
Want the same lot size on every account? Use Lot multiplier set to 1.
Do my account rules still apply?
Yes. Every account still follows the rules of its own model. Limits such as daily drawdown, maximum drawdown, floating loss and consistency are checked on each account separately.
A trade that is fine on a $100,000 lead can break the rules on a $5,000 follower. Set each follower's sizing and lot cap so it stays inside its own limits.
Does the VPS and IP rule apply to the copier?
No. The GOAT Trade Copier runs in the cloud, and trades it copies into your Goat Funded Trader accounts are not treated as use of a hosting service. Any other copier running on a VPS or hosted environment is still prohibited. See the IP Address and Account Access Policy.
