Required by ⁨TOF⁩ rules

  • ⁨TOF⁩ allows copying to other firms only when trades start in its own account, so it is the master.
  • It sets these rules for the group: ⁨Daily loss, Consistency, and Max contracts⁩. So it will be the first to fail if something goes wrong.
  • When the tightest account leads, a stop on it also stops the followers. When a looser account leads, a tight follower can fail on its own and fall out of sync.

Followers

  • Apex 50K×1
  • TPT 50K×1

TOF must lead, so the master can't be changed.

Master: ⁨TOF⁩. Accounts in the group: 3.

The shared rule

The strictest value among the 3 accounts, in the master's dollars (TOF 50K). The table shows each account's value, with the strictest marked for each rule.

How Master Copy decides

1. Who's in the group
An account from a firm that bans copy trading (currently Funded Futures Family) stays on the list, marked "not in the group", and you trade it manually.
2. Who's the master
A firm that requires trades to start in its own account (currently Top One Futures) is the master. Otherwise the strictest account leads: the one that sets the maximum loss limit, the daily loss, the consistency and the contract cap, because it will fail first. When it leads, a stop on it also stops the followers.
3. The shared rule
For each rule we take the strictest value and convert amounts into the master's dollars by account size (100K vs 50K is 2x). Consistency becomes a cap on the best day plus a number of profitable days, and news is banned in the widest window in the group.
4. Where the data comes from
From the same data shown on the firm pages on the site, and each firm's copy policy from its official help center, with a check date. Firms change rules, so before connecting copy software, confirm on the firm's website too.
