Bitget has now introduced a major upgrade to its CFD Copy Trading system, and with it, the platform’s followers will gain more control over risk management. The latest update brings multiple fine-tuned adjustments, including new position sizing models, independent take-profit and stop-loss settings, and advanced exposure controls.
Two New Sizing Models Introduced
Bitget’s latest upgrade in regards to risk controls is the result of the ongoing complexities within the traditional copy trading paradigm.
As more people are adopting the system, challenges are emerging in the form of unintended exposure due to the differences between risk tolerance and trading style.
Bitget’s risk control upgrade comes with two new position sizing models to address this issue: Fixed Ratio Mode, and Fixed Lot Mode:
Fixed Ratio Mode
This mode adjusts the position sizes automatically according to the relative account equity of the follower and the trader they are copying. That results in capital mismatching risk going down.
Fixed Lot Mode
With this mode, followers can preset the position size for every trade they copy. This approach gives them a more direct control over their exposure, regardless of how large the trader’s order size is.
Additional Controls Added to the System
Beyond the two modes, followers also get independent take-profit and stop-loss settings, which means they can take a different approach to managing risks than the trader they are following.
And then once the price reaches that predefined profit or loss level, the position of these followers will close based on the settings they entered.
Other new controls added include maximum copy lot limits and custom lot multipliers, which, according to the developers, are designed to enhance the flexibility of the copy trading system.
The Latest Upgrade Makes Copy Trading More Personalized: Bitget CEO
In the upgrade announcement, Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget emphasized that users don’t need to give up their control if they opt for copy trading.
She added that users are more sophisticated today, which means while they want to follow experienced traders and benefit from them, they also aren’t blind to their own risks and want to manage it separately.
“This upgrade shifts copy trading from simple strategy replication toward a more personalized and controlled trading experience,” the CEO said.
Upgrade the Result of User Feedback
The announcement detailed that the latest upgrade is the result of user feedback, and the emergence of new industry trends where users are calling for better risk control management systems. Participation across crypto and financial markets has grown, according to the announcement, and users need more control over risk exposure and capital allocation.
The upgrade aligns with Bitget’s larger mission to expand its CFD offering within its Universal Exchange ecosystem. Over the past year, Bitget has gained renown as a multi-asset trading platform, earning the “Best Global Multi-Asset Trading Platform” award at the Online Trading Expo.
With the addition of new risk management systems for copy trading, the developers envision a future in which Bitget is more accessible and has a stronger infrastructure across global markets.
