When Signal Provider Experiences Losses

Understand how Signal Provider losses affect Investors, High Water Mark fees, stop-out, subscription termination, visibility, and profile-wide negative balance review.

When a Signal Provider experiences losses, several scenarios may unfold affecting investors who copy their trades:

  1. Both Signal Provider and Investor in Loss: If both accounts are experiencing losses, remember that profit share fees are only paid after your investment recovers past losses and begins generating new profits (High Water Mark principle).

  2. Signal Provider in Loss but Investor in Profit: This can occur due to price differences when trades are executed. Since copying begins at current market rates, entry prices may differ from the original Signal Provider's positions.

  3. Signal Provider Reaching Zero Equity: If the Signal Provider's account reaches zero equity or lower, positions will close under the applicable stop-out process. A resulting negative balance is not reset automatically or for that account alone.

  4. Post Stop-Out Actions: Investors can manually unsubscribe after a Signal Provider's stop-out. Otherwise, subscriptions will automatically terminate within 7 trading days. FXTRADING.com supports trading seven days a week, so trading days can include weekends. Each affected account holder is assessed separately across their own FXTRADING.com profile. Clearing requires no open positions or pending orders, fully settled activity with no funds in transit, and combined eligible net equity below zero. If approved, all eligible positive and negative balances in scope are reset to zero.

  5. Visibility After Stop-Out: Once stop-out occurs, the Signal Provider will no longer be visible in the FXTRADING.com Trading App.
