How do billing periods work in Copy Trading?

A billing period is the measurement period used to record a copied strategy's performance and, where applicable, calculate a performance fee.

A billing period is the measurement period used to record a copied strategy's performance and, where applicable, calculate a performance fee.

What happens at the end of a billing period?

Depending on the signal and its current configuration, the billing event can:

  • record the period's performance;

  • determine whether a performance fee applies;

  • update the performance-fee record;

  • recalculate copying values or ratios; and

  • create transaction or order-history entries associated with the billing event.

The Social Trading application and account history show the effect for the relevant signal. Different signals or billing events can produce different records.
