Learn the basics
A short primer on how copy trading and investing work on TicksMill.
What is copy trading?
Copy trading lets you automatically mirror the buy and sell decisions of another trader in your own account, sized to whatever amount you choose to allocate.
How allocation works
When you follow a trader on TicksMill, you set an allocation amount. Their trades are mirrored into your account proportionally to that allocation — you're never forced to match their full position size.
Understanding risk levels
Every trader on the leaderboard is tagged Low, Medium, or High risk based on their historical volatility and drawdown. Lower risk generally means steadier, smaller moves; higher risk means bigger swings in both directions.
Placing your first trade
Head to Markets, pick an asset, enter a quantity, and choose Buy or Sell. Orders fill instantly at the current market price.
