How to add or remove funds from someone you're already copying on Etoro. It's really simple to do. Also a tiny update on how I've freed-up some funds to add them to my copy with Jay, and why i bought a small AMD position.
Hello Thomas! Im just started, but its so easy to do it with you! Oh men, your videos its just great, whached all of it for a few times! Its so imformative, I heard all the answers that I needed. You are my first teacher to do all of this investment bussines. Your speech is very clear, easy, nice to wach and feels a good mood :) Thank you Thomas!
Thank you so much - that's really kind of you to say :) Hope it all goes well.
You very clear with explanations man. Good job
Thanks a lot man :) much appreciated.
When I try to add funds to my existing copy traders, it says minimum $200 dollars (copy open trades ticked). I only want to add $50 in. I unticked the copy open trades and then it allowed me to add the $50. Why is that?
Helpful information, much appreciation.
Thanks Nyiko!
Hi i tried to deposit the initial amout but it failed. It was not dposited to my etoro but the amount was not on my account anymore. Any one who can help me on what to do regardig this? TIA.
Hi.. I have a question: if I copy a trader and he has 1 open trade with let’s say Apple. After I add fund, I will have 2 open trade with Apple at different price. When the trader close his only one open trade on Apple, How does Etoro knows which of my trade need to be closed too ? Thanks! 🙏
hi there, can you also add funds in your own current open positions?
Hello a question what happens when a copytrader I'm copying added funds and then he invested it, will I also open a new position?
Hi Thomas,
Thanks for your videos!! 😍
I have a question for you: When checking the closed transactions of people I copy I realised that this value changes! Why does it change if the transactions are already closed? It probably has an easy explanation but I don't get it. Do you have any idea? Thanks in advance! 😁👍
These days when you Add funds it has the “copy open trades” checkbox again. Yours seemed to be automatically copying open trades?
nope, in the past when you added money it wouldn't add it to open trades. the only option was that the person youre cooying would use your new funds up over time in New trades. the option to copy open trades when adding funds was added later.
Hello brother , i copied somone and i still have available 100 usd , i wanted to add it to the copy but minimum is another 500 usd ?!! Any idea how to add this 100 to my copied ?
So are you saying that when you click 'add funds' to a trader who you are already copying, it won't let you add less than $500?
@@SocialTrading yes right
It looks to me that you can remove ... MAX AMOUNT TO REMOVE $159.32 ?
Hi Thomas, Great videos and contents. I copied a trader for $2000 (with Open Trades). When I look at invested column at the bottom of the screen where it shows Total Open, I see only $1419.34 is invested. Why is only portion of $2k is invested, why not full $2k. Where is remaining amount $580.66. Thank you
Hi there Harish - very often a trader won't use 100% of their money on open active trades. If they haven't used 100% and you're copying them, then 100% of the money you've copied them with won't be being used. There are several reasons traders often don't use 100% of their capital on active trades. Firstly, it reduces their risk, and makes their trading safer. Secondly, maybe they're holding some money back waiting for the right price on a particular asset to open a new trade, or just holding some money back in case a good opportunity pops up...
Social Trading Vlog Hi Thomas, Thanks for you previous reply. I have couple of questions please.
1) I am copying a trader and I see $$ profit. I want to close those trades and take the profit because it is high. When I close the trades, will the money I had copied to this trader will be returned back to my account including the profit OR will the amount remain in the trader's account. If it remains in the Trader's account, will I be able to withdraw all the money.
2) I would like to buy it again from same trader at later time, can I buy from the same trader anytime.
Thank you
Hi, I going to add fund to the trader I copy. Will it affect my current open trade? And what is the percentage invested when my trader open new trade. How to calculate it?
When you add funds to the trader you're copying, there's the option to either add the funds to the open positions or not. But if you choose to add funds to the open positions, I think it actually opens new positions in those same assets for you - they obviously won't be able to buy them at the same price as the initial ones, so I'm not sure how that will work with the stats. I've never taken that option. I just add the funds without clicking the 'add to open trades' button... Not sure which is best though - depends on the situation I think. I'd have to see at the time.
To see how much your trader invests in any asset, you can go to their portfolio and it'll show you how much of their total account size they have invested in any given asset which they're currently trading. The system will always copy the same asset for you, and it will see that the trader you're copying has (for example) used 5% of their total account size on that trade, so it will use 5% of the money you've copied that trader with when it open your trade in the same asset. Hope that makes sense...
Thank you for the great detailed explanation, it's very helpful. I have just a few questions left about removing funds from a copy-trade.
Say I copy a trader with $1000 and he has invested only 70% of that, so the rest $300 are staying there idle. What will happen if I remove the $300 from this trader to invest them elsewhere? Will this affect the size of my opened positions with him or will they stay at $700?
Also what determines the max amount I can remove from a trader at a given time? Thank you :)
Hi there, thanks :) - yeah it'll make your average trade sizes smaller - I know it seems stupid for them to just let 30% sit there, but maybe they have a plan for it - maybe they're waiting for a specific asset to reach a specific price or something before they invest... I doubt they're just keeping 30% as a prudent reserve - have you tried asking them? There might be a good reason. It's a lot to keep back though. The max amount you can remove from a trader is, I think, the maximum amount which they haven't currently got ties up in open trades. Watch the videos I made about taking profits from copytrading - especially the second one actually, and the "pause Copy" option - they might help a bit :

I see. This means if trader takes out 300 USD, current open positions will also be closed or adjusted?
@@SocialTrading Thats false information you're giving out
How do I know if how much money on my copy that is not being used in the portfolio i’m copying?
go to your portfolio, click on the person youre cooying and itll show you all of your copied trades by that person. scroll down to the bottom of the page, and on the left you'll see "total open". That shows the amount of your money which is currently being used in active trades by that trader.
Social Trading Vlog Yes, thank you so much! I kinda figured it out haha!
Hi I need some help on Etoro. For some reason I cant seem to click on they buy button on an existing trade, would you know why that would have happened?
Hi there, I'm not sure what you mean - you have an open trade, and you want to alter it? Or were you wanting to buy more of the same asset? Was it a crypto by any chance? They have limits on how much of each crypto can be sold via Etoro each day, so maybe it was something like XRP, and the daily sale quota had already been reached. Not sure :) Hope you managed to get what you were looking for in the end.
can you do a class to hedge USD/GBP as income could be wiped out by the FX movement
You are the best I m on etoro because of you one question if you kindly help pls when withdrawing funds what option should I use if I want money in my uk current account as it is very confusing for me like netril skrill...
Hi there Imran - really I'm not sure - I've only returned money to my Visa cards so far - I haven't used any of those 3rd party services yet...
Thanks by the way! :)
Hey, I have a doubt on the add funds functionality, could you pls clarify it to me?
Lets say for example that I copied someone's investment that was "buy Bitcoin", at a time bitcoin value was 10k
Now BC costs almost 17k, If I add more fund to this, will the money "buy" more BC at 10k or 17k?
Tks mate, cheers!
17K unfortunately. You can only ever buy at the current market price - if it was the other way around, everyone would just be finding people who bought at $300 and copying them :) Nice idea though!
do added funds go directly to the current open trades, or does it wait for new trades?
you can specify if you want to add it to open trades or let it only be used in new trades as you add the money to the copy.
How can you do so? I added funds to a copy but they are not allocated even though the market was open already.
Hi, is this the way (remove funds) you can cash out any profits from copying a trader or do you have to use another method to do this?
Hi there - Yeah, this is how you can take profits (remove funds) from a trader you're copying (unless you just want to end the entire copy). If you just do nothing, then all profits stay within that copy and are used in future trades, so your trade sizes actually get bigger allowing you to have potentially more profits. (or bigger losses if it goes badly, but that's why we check out the traders' stats first and choose as wisely as we can). I think of each "copy" as a fund, and any profits that fund makes get ploughed back into the fund to be used to generate more profit. Since I don't have a lot of money in there, I'm leaving the profits with each copy so my account size grows. Eventually, when there's enough in there, I'll use the remove funds method to take some out.
Thanks for your response! Keep up with the videos, they are highly helpful :)
Much appreciated :)
I am assuming you cannot add funds via bitcoin ? right ? I dont feel like giving them info like personal utility bill.
Hi Lina - nope. It has to be cash. Dollars to be precise... Etoro is still basically an legacy-style trading setup on which you can trade some cryptos. I think they're working to change that as fast as they can, at least around how cryptos are treated. There's talk of their crypto wallet launching towards the end of this year. Hope you find what you're looking for!
hey man, how long does it take for the "stop copy" order to be executed. I keep seeing pending stop
It might be because one of the assets in the portfolio of the person you're copying is traded on an exchange which is closed right now. So you'll have to wait until that exchange opens again, so it can close the position in your portfolio - when that happens, the copy should end and the money (adjusted for profits or losses) should be returned to your available balance.
Hope that's it - it often happens and scares us all for a moment :)
I think you can only remove funds that are not currently being invested in the copy. Like when you go to the bottom, sometimes the total investment is less than your copy amount. So if the total investment is equal to the copy amount, you won't be able to remove any funds.
Also, there was one time where as I added funds to the copy, the average trade size was not increasing. In fact, it said 0 and was just staying at 0. I don't understand why. Maybe you can make a video on that if you do know about it.
Hey there - yeah, I made a video about that - using the pause copy feature to let the amount you can remove from a copy build up : czcams.com/video/KU56yDvug8g/video.html. I'm not sure why that would happen - adding money and the average trade size not increasing ... was it a one-time situation or have you seen that repeatedly?
Only once. I forget the trader I was copying. I'll let you know if it happens again or if I figured out why myself.
Hi. I’ve stopped copying a trader and my account is still pending and it’s been like it for a few days. Any help on this thanks.
Hi there Andy - possibly because one of the assets you copied via him was traded on an exchange which isn't open (maybe this was over the weekend) - hopefully, when the exchange (could be New York, could be London etc) opened on Monday, it was able to exit the particular trade and your copy position was able to close...
how does leverage work? i dont get it. For what can it be used?
Leverage is basically like amplifying your trade. Essentially, what you're doing is borrowing money from Etoro just for the life of the specific trade. So if you only have $50, but you want to buy $500 worth of Apple stock, then you can buy $50 of Apple stocks with X10 leverage, and it's the same as if you're trading with $500 worth. Obviously all trading is based on percentages - and all stocks are sold in units. So let's say Apple is $1 per unit (it's not really) then with $50 you have bought 50 units - if you use X10 leverage it's like you bought 500 units. The more units you have, the more their increase in value will mean profit for you. If Apple goes up 10% you will have made 10% on all 500 units as opposed to all 50 units.
It also amplifies losses though, so Apple stock loses 10%, then the losses are amplified too as you're losing 10% of 500 units instead of 10% of 50 units.
So, by using leverage, you'll see that small changes in the price of the stocks suddenly result in large profits or losses - the profit and loss will move much quicker than if you use no leverage. try it in the virtual portfolio and you'll see what I mean. What new traders underestimate (well at least I did) is the psychological and emotional impact sudden increasing losses can have on you - you panic and can see when you should hold, or hold (not sell) when you should sell.
The market moves in patterns and does make some small sense, but until you get used to it, it just looks like wild gambling and chaos. So using a lot of leverage before you're used to how the market moves can lead to panic, which usually leads to bad decisions, which usually leads to losses.
Also, important to note - go and look at their fees page. When you use leverage you incur "Overnight" and "weekend" fees, which you don't incur (most of the time) when you don't use leverage. Check their fees page in the help section for more info...
verry helpfull , thanks
thanks sir! :)
Do you work in to cinema?
Hi, no, I actually studied radio, film and television production, but I've never used it as a profession.
Do you know whats wrong on that: I copied a trader with $200 first, on friday i decided to add another $800 on that trader. Now I only see $200 invested, but total allocaded are $1000. Bitcoins, which he also have, are 24/7 tradable, but my position on that is still the same. Overall, a bit strange to me. Thank you and keep up the good work.
Hi there - the answer to this one is basically the same as the answer to "what happens if I copy someone and don't click the 'copy open trades' button? - you can see it explained a bit here : czcams.com/video/hO1zncbWqFM/video.html
Basically, adding funds means that if you go to your portfolio, and click on the trader you're copying, you'll see all the open positions you have with him or her. At the top right of the screen you'll see the total you have invested in him at the moment. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and on the left you'll see a "total Open" heading - the number next to that is the amount of the overall money you've copied them with which is currently being used in active trades.
So, when you added the funds, they went into the copy position - that's why they were added to your 'total allocated' amount... They have been added to the copy position, but it will take a while before your trader opens enough new trades that the new money is used up in active trades. Go to their stats page, scroll to the bottom, and on the left you'll see a statistic on how many new 'Trades per week' they make. This will give you an indication how many times each week a bit of that new money you added is likely to be used up in active trades. It could take some time - it depends on how frequently the trader makes new trades...
Hope that helps a bit.
Very usefull, thanks for sharing. Is there a way around that? Or is just best stop coppying completely and re-open again after closure been confirmed (if adding larger sum of money)?
I have the same question...does anybody know the answer?
hi there - it's in the first answer :)
it's up to you really - you can either close and re-open choosing copy open trades, or you could just wait for them to use up your funds in active trades. Another way (which I've actually done myself recently) is to sort of split it... So, you could close the copy, and then re-open the copy with (for instance) 60% of your funds and choose 'copy open trades' - so, this money will be instantly used up in open trades. Then, when the copy is open, you could select "add funds" (to the copy which is already running) and add the other 40% that you wanted to put on the trader to copy... that way you have some being used up instantly (so you cover all of his open positions) and then you have some (the 40%) which is only to be used in new trades... obviously, you could do 50-50, or 70-30, or 90-10 or whatever. I thought it wasn't a bad solution...
well done on holding eth
thanks :) Yeah, been waiting for a couple of months now after the big correction.
Hi, I've just started trading due to the crypto interest and found your vlog informative and clear it's been hard to find that on youtube, most are to fast and not clear, but yours is great, you make seem so easy, but because i'm new at this it would be even better if you could throw in some scenarios like if you press the wrong button what to do to correct it, that sought of thing.
Through you, I'm on etoro with xrp and copying MrThor7734 who is great, more basic knowledge of the platform would useful, since i have a few panics on it lately, i can see a lot of new traders coming due to the cryto market who will need a lot of help with someone like you to hold our hand learning this.keep up the good work, hope to see more vlogs (coinbase as well:))
Thanks Martin, that's very kind of you to say - any ideas for videos, let me know - I've been using it for a bit over a year now, and you quickly forget what it was that you struggled with in the beginning. I have a few ideas though.
Bet you wish you held that etherum lol
;)
