BTCC Expands Futures Pro Platform With Smart Copy Trading Feature

BTCC, one of the world’s longest-operating cryptocurrency exchanges, has rolled out a new Smart Copy Trading feature for its Futures Pro platform. The update, launched on November 6, 2025, enables users to automatically replicate professional traders’ strategies.

The launch follows the platform’s strong quarterly growth: BTCC’s reported trading volume climbed from $6.6 billion in Q2 2025 to $18.7 billion in Q3 2025, signaling growing interest in leveraged crypto products among global traders.

How Smart Copy Trading feature works

Unlike traditional copy-trading tools that require manual configuration, BTCC’s Smart Copy Trading automatically mirrors a lead trader’s portfolio allocation and leverage.

For instance, if a professional trader assigns 10% of their portfolio to a position with 5× leverage, the follower’s account replicates that exposure in the same proportion with matching margin and risk settings.

According to BTCC, the system includes three layers of protection:

1. Separation of users’ own trades and copied trades.

2. Independent margin-ratio calculations for each copied account.

3. Segregated fund allocation to reduce over-leverage exposure.

Marcus Chen, Product Manager at BTCC, said the feature was developed in response to trader feedback seeking simpler access to professional-grade strategies.

Chen said, “Smart Copy Trading makes professional strategies accessible to everyone. As we continue to expand our product offerings, we’re focused on empowering users with tools that simplify complexity and maximize opportunities.”

A broader push into social and automated trading

BTCC’s move reflects a wider industry shift as exchanges such as Bitget and Bybit build social-trading ecosystems that let users follow high-performing traders.

With volatility rising across crypto markets, such tools appeal to retail users who prefer automation and transparency over manual decision-making.

BTCC’s rollout is a step toward deepening engagement within its derivatives ecosystem while positioning the exchange to compete more directly in the copy-trading segment.

Risks associated with copy trading

While copy trading simplifies participation in futures markets, it also carries significant risks. Mirroring another trader’s strategy does not guarantee profits and can even amplify losses. Especially when leverage is involved and market conditions are changing rapidly, professional traders’ positions may not align with a follower’s risk tolerance or capital size.

Experts warn that users should:

• Understand margin and liquidation risks before activating automated copying.
• Diversify across multiple lead traders instead of relying on a single strategy.
• Regularly review performance metrics rather than adopting a “set-and-forget” approach.

Copy trading should be treated as a learning tool, not as a shortcut to guaranteed gains.
