When copying the SATORI strategy, choosing the correct Copy Mode is very important because each mode calculates your copied lot size differently.
Equity Ratio automatically adjusts the copier’s lot size according to the equity of the Master account and the Copier account.
Example:
The copier has 10% of the Master’s equity, so approximately:
Copied lot = 1.00 × ($1,000 / $10,000) = 0.10 lot
If the copier has $2,000, the copied lot would be approximately 0.20 lot.
The important advantage is that the lot size automatically changes as the equity of the Master and Copier changes.
Best for: Users who want their trading exposure to remain proportional to their account equity.
With Fixed Lots, you decide exactly what lot size your account will use when copying trades, regardless of the Master’s lot size or account equity.
Example:
You set:
Fixed Lot = 0.05
Then:
The Master’s lot size does not determine your copied lot size.
Best for: Users who want strict control over the lot size of every copied trade.
Fixed Multiples copies the Master’s lot size and multiplies it by a number chosen by the copier.
For example, if you choose:
Multiplier = 2.0×
Then:
If you choose 0.5×, your copied lot size will be half of the Master’s:
Master 0.10 lot → Copier 0.05 lot
Best for: Users who understand the Master account’s lot sizing and want to increase or decrease that exposure by a fixed multiplier.
For most users who want their copy trading risk to scale naturally with their account size, Equity Ratio is usually the easiest mode to understand and manage.
Equity Ratio → proportional to account equity
Fixed Lots → always use a specified lot size
Fixed Multiples → Master lot × your chosen multiplier
⚠️ Important: A higher lot size or multiplier means higher potential profit, but also higher drawdown and risk. Make sure you understand the setting before increasing your exposure.
