Welcome to Ectype. It serves as a trade copier, allowing users to copy account from a main account to their own. Follow these simple steps to make the most of this feature.
### Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have:
* An active Ectype account. If you don't have one yet, sign up [here](https://www.ectype.finance).
* Identified a master account that you want to copy trades from.
Now, let's dive into copying trades
### Step 1: Login to Ectype
Visit the Ectype website and log in to your account using your credentials.
### Step 2: Navigate to Copy Account
Once logged in, find the `Copy Account` section. You can usually locate it in the left side bar, under the Account section.
### Step 3: Select Master Account
In the `Copy Account` section, select the main account from which you want to copy trades. For example, if you want to copy trades from Mr. A account to Mr. B, choose Mr. A as the Copy From account, which will serve as the main account, and Mr. B as the Copy To account.
### Step 4: Select Risk Types
Choose a risk type that aligns with your trading preferences. You can read about risk types [here](https://ectype.gitbook.io/ectype-user-guide/risk-types).
### Step 5: Choose a Multiplier
Set a multiplier to adjust the size of the copied trades. This multiplier amplifies or reduces the trade size based on your preference.
### Step 6: Confirm and Save
Review your copying settings, ensuring they match your risk tolerance and trading strategy. Click "Copy Account" to finalize your copying configuration.
### Step 7: Monitor and Manage
Once configured, Ectype will automatically copy trades from the main account to yours according to the chosen settings. Monitor your copied trades and adjust settings as needed.
### Troubleshooting
* **Copying Issues:** If you encounter any copying issues, double-check your copying settings and ensure the master account is active.
* **Risk Management:** If your risk management strategy changes, revisit your copying settings to ensure they align with your new preferences.
