3. Overview of Copy Trading 

3.1 Copy trading provides users (as a "Copy Trader") with the opportunity to interact, follow, and replicate the investment portfolios of other traders. It allows users to analyze financial data through comparison and replication of trades and technology. You will be able to make investment decisions on cryptocurrencies based on information provided by traders (who may be anonymous or unidentifiable traders) on the platform, such as details of their trades on the platform (referred to as “Copy Trading Information"). You acknowledge and understand that Copy Trading Information and the Copy Trading Service are not developed to provide personalized investment advice, investment recommendations, tax-related advice, or any other type of financial advice. Any information related to Copy Trading Information or copy trading performance is not intended and should not be considered as investment advice. All information provided on the platform is for reference only and should serve as a starting point for your own independent research and investment decisions. Copy trading should not be construed as a recommendation, endorsement, or approval by KuCoin. 

3.2 KuCoin reserves the right to evaluate your knowledge, experience, adaptability, and assess whether copy trading is suitable for your investment activity. This assessment will be based on the information and documents you provide, which you can update at any time. KuCoin shall not be liable for any losses incurred due to false or deceptive information provided by you in the evaluation documents. 

3.3 Copy trading only provides copy trading order services, synchronously sending trader orders to the market under user authorization, and trading with the counterparty in market. Due to market fluctuations, changes in market depth, delayed execution of system instructions, etc., copy trading orders do not guarantee the same opening/closing prices, opening/closing times, or profit-loss ratios with the traders. 

3.4 KuCoin will monitor the performance of any user, and we reserve the right to: (i) open and close user accounts; (ii) include or exclude traders, copy traders, and/or portfolios; (iii) block, stop, or suspend any trader from being copied on the platform and/or any portfolio from being copied on the platform; (iv) cancel or reject any orders placed by a third party on your behalf for security and/or legal reasons; (v) terminate our relationship with you. 

 

4. Copy Trading Service 

4.1 Copy Trading 

KuCoin provides you with the ability to interact, follow, and copy other traders by using relevant information, offering you the copy trading feature. The Copy Trading Service of KuCoin provides you with detailed account information, trading history, risk profiles, and other related information that may be useful to you when deciding whether to copy the investment activities of these traders. The Copy Trading Service is a trading feature that allows you to follow and/or monitor the accounts of other traders. You can follow specific KuCoin trader accounts. By placing copy trading orders, you authorize the KuCoin platform to automatically replicate the operations of the selected account in your KuCoin account without prior consultation, or your prior consent or approval. For example, KuCoin may initiate the provision of copy trading services, stop copy trading services, and/or suspend copying of specific traders or accounts, and impose restrictions on any copy trading transactions. 

4.2 KuCoin Copy Trading Service 

KuCoin offers copy trading services that allow you to select orders from KuCoin trader accounts on the KuCoin platform and engage in copy trading. The KuCoin Copy Trading Service synchronously sends trader orders to the market under user authorization, trading with the counterparty in market. It cannot be guaranteed that copy trading orders will have the same opening/closing prices, opening/closing times, and profit-loss ratios as the orders being copied due to factors such as market fluctuations, changes in market depth, and delayed execution of system instructions. 

4.3 Lead Trading Service 

(1) Lead Trading 

Any KuCoin user with a good understanding of trading can apply to become a KuCoin lead trading provider in Copy Trading Service, allowing these lead traders to earn a profit share from orders or trades copied or followed by other users under the copy trading service. KuCoin will review applications from lead trading providers according to its internal policies and guidelines, and reserves the sole discretion to approve or reject such applications without providing any explanations. 

Once a user becomes a lead trading provider, they are required to trade on the KuCoin platform on the copy trading page. Under their copy trading account, if any orders or trades are placed after becoming a lead trading provider, notifications will automatically be sent to users subscribed to the copy trading service and who choose to replicate the orders or trades of that lead trading provider, enabling subscribed users to follow the relevant trades. 

Lead trading providers can access the orders and/or trade records copied or followed by other users under the copy trading service through the management portal on the KuCoin platform. 

The management portal for the lead trading service will display in detail or summarize all orders and trades executed by the lead trading provider's account. On the KuCoin platform, lead trading providers can access detailed information for each order or trade, as well as a brief summary of all orders and/or trades. 

When engaging in trading activities that are copied or followed by other users, lead trading providers are subject to certain restrictions. 

Lead trading providers must strictly adhere to KuCoin's requirements for any orders or trades being copied under the copy trading service. 

KuCoin reserves the right to add, modify, amend, or revoke any requirements related to lead trading providers or any trading activities copied by other users (including any orders or trades being copied). 

If KuCoin deems or believes that any orders or trades being copied may potentially cause harm or loss to any other KuCoin users, brokers, or partners, or if they involve malicious, fraudulent, false statements, deceptive, dishonest, illegal, or unethical behavior, KuCoin reserves the sole discretion and right to cancel or roll back any copied orders or trades. 

If KuCoin believes that any trading activities conducted by a lead trading provider may potentially cause harm or loss to any other KuCoin users, brokers, or partners, or if they involve malicious, fraudulent, false statements, deceptive, dishonest, illegal, or unethical behavior, KuCoin reserves the sole discretion and right to revoke the status of any copy trading provider. 

(2) Profit-Sharing Rules for Traders 

KuCoin incentivizes lead trading providers through profit-sharing. Lead trading providers can earn a certain profit share from users subscribed to the copy trading service and who replicate or follow their orders or trades. Users following these trades are obligated to share a certain proportion of their profits generated through copy trading with the lead trading provider. 

(3) Lead Trading Provider Agreement and Commitments 

Copy trading providers agree and undertake the following with his/her best efforts: 

- Not to make any false or misleading statements that could damage the reputation and credibility of KuCoin and/or its affiliates. 

- Not to engage in false advertising or promotion to attract followers, including but not limited to promising or guaranteeing stable returns or profits. 

- Not to leave any personal contact information on the KuCoin platform, including in personal profiles or private chat groups. 

- Personal profiles should not contain personal contact information and should not include any content that is illegal, violates regulations, or damages the reputation and credibility of the KuCoin platform. Personal profiles should include trading strategies and notes on copy trading. 

(4) Risk Control Rules for Lead Trading Providers 

High-Risk Operations: If indicators such as average leverage ratio, frequency of opening positions, maximum drawdown ratio, etc., are significantly higher than normal levels and inconsistent with past trading styles, the user may be deemed to be engaging in high-risk operations. 

Violation of Rules: If KuCoin monitors and identifies behaviors such as maliciously holding positions, maliciously generating fees, maliciously sharing profits, wash trading, cross-account trading, etc., the user may be deemed to be in violation of rules. 

Maliciously Manipulating Metrics: If the rate of return exceeds normal levels and does not align with actual profits, it may be considered cheating; if the win rate is consistently high and profits are abnormal, indicating a mismatch between actual trading ability and win rate, the user may be deemed to be maliciously manipulating win rates. 

Penalties: If a copy trading provider engages in any of the aforementioned violations, KuCoin has the right to lower their ranking, cancel trades, suspend copy trading privileges, freeze or ban accounts, and/or take any other measures that KuCoin deems appropriate. KuCoin reserves the right to seek compensation from the copy trading provider for violations. 

(5) Responsibilities of Lead Trading Providers 

Becoming a lead trading provider is a personal decision of the user and does not constitute employment, partnership, intermediary, contractor, or any other contractual relationship with KuCoin and the platform. Lead trading providers understand and acknowledge that they act sincerely and bear the legal responsibilities and risks associated with becoming a lead trading provider. KuCoin platform is not liable for any losses, actions and responsibilities of lead trading providers. 

Lead trading providers agree to comply with all applicable laws and regulations in any jurisdiction. They are solely responsible for their actions as lead trading providers. Additionally, lead trading providers undertake not to infringe upon the legal rights and interests of any KuCoin user or third party. If KuCoin, KuCoin users, brokers, or partners suffer any losses due to the actions of a copy trading provider, KuCoin has the right to seek compensation from the lead trading provider through legal means or other channels.

(11) You should utilize any information gathered from our Platform and/or Copy Trading Services as a basis for your independent research and investment decisions. However, you must not base your investment decisions solely on the information provided by this Platform. It is your sole discretion to use Copy Trading Services, choose specific lead traders to copy, and/or follow specific trading strategies. In making such decisions, you have carefully and thoroughly considered your overall financial situation, including but not limited to financial planning, and understood the highly speculative and risky nature of using copy trading services.

- Copying trades below the minimum trade amount will not be placed;

- Canceling trades by the lead traders or strategies may also lead to adverse outcomes for you when attempting to copy trades. This is influenced by various factors, including but not limited to initial account balance, minimum trade size, user account settings, price differences at the time of trading, interest, and fee differentials that may arise; 

- Tracking/copying trades made by inexperienced and/or unprofessional lead traders; 

- Lead traders whose ultimate goals, intentions, or financial conditions may differ from yours; 

- Copying of trades by users as restricted by applicable laws from trading products related to your account, and the inability to execute equivalent substitute trades, may result in deviations in the economic performance, risk profile, and other factors related to your trades from those made by the lead trader.
