How are profits calculated and shared in PU Copy Trading?
In PU Copy Trading, profit calculations and payout sharing (Performance Fees) are structured around the High-Water Mark (HWM) mechanism. This principle ensures that Signal Providers (Strategy Providers) only earn performance fees on net new profits, protecting copiers from paying fees on recovered losses.
Important Information
- A negative floating profit does not trigger Profit Sharing.
- Recovering from a previous loss does not trigger Profit Sharing until the current eligible profit exceeds the previous High Water Mark (HWM).
- Profit Sharing takes floating orders into account.
- Profit Sharing is settled according to the Signal Provider's selected schedule: daily, weekly, or monthly.
- The Profit Sharing rate can range from 0% to 50%, depending on the strategy.
