Digital dashboard showing a strategy overview on the Deriv cTrader platform, used for managing copy trading as a strategy provider.

If you're a strategy provider on cTrader, managing your strategy effectively is the key to success. Whether you're looking to maximise your earnings, attract more followers, or fine-tune your trading approach, staying on top of your game can make all the difference.

What your followers see

Your strategy profile is like your trading resume-it’s what potential followers use to decide whether to copy your trades. It displays your:

Avatar
‍
Account type logo
‍
Strategy name
‍
cTrader ID
‍
Key metrics (ROI, funds attracted, number of followers, strategy age)

Transparency is your best friend here. A well-maintained and clearly communicated strategy profile can help you build trust and attract more investors.

Tracking and improving your performance

The best strategy providers don’t just set and forget-they constantly review and refine their approach. cTrader provides analytics tools to help you track important data, including:

Total copy trading commissions earned
‍
Total and average number of investors
‍
Daily copied funds
‍
Total and average volume of copied trades
‍
Total number of deals copied

For even deeper insights, click on your cTrader ID to access detailed statistics like total investor funds, average profit, and active investor count. Regularly reviewing this data helps you make informed adjustments and improve your strategy.

Growing your follower base

Attracting followers isn’t just about having a good strategy-it’s about how well you communicate and market it. Here’s how you can boost your visibility:

Promotion Tool	How It Helps
Invite Link	Share your strategy via a direct link to attract new investors.
Embedded Strategy Application	Showcase your strategy on your website using an HTML iframe.
Personal Profile Page	Promote your achievements with a custom profile link.
Investor Access Link	Share real-time trading statistics for credibility.

Engaging with your audience is just as important. Keep your followers updated on any changes to your strategy, explain your risk management approach, and respond to their questions to build trust and credibility.

Managing your copy trading strategy effectively takes effort, but the rewards are worth it. By staying transparent, engaging with followers, and using cTrader’s marketing tools, you can grow your investor base and boost your earnings.
