Limitations on using A/C multiplier:

• Both integer and decimal multipliers are supported.

If you are utilizing decimal multipliers such as 1.5 or 2.5, it’s important to note that partial profit booking and pyramiding are not supported. This is because it may result in a residual quantity remaining open or the establishment of an opposite position when exiting a position with a small quantity.

For FNO, we employ a round-down logic for quantity. For instance, if the calculated quantity based on the multiplier is 260 and the lot size is 50, it will be rounded down to 250. This poses a challenge when practicing pyramiding or partial booking. Therefore, when using a decimal multiplier, it is advisable to place orders for entry and exit with the same quantity. For instance, if you place a buy order for 500 quantities followed by a second buy order for 700 quantities, it is recommended to have two separate exit orders for 500 and 700 quantities, rather than a single order for 1200 quantities.

If part booking or pyramiding is essential in your trading strategy, we recommend using an account with the lowest quantity as the master account. Utilize integer multipliers and allocate capital accordingly in your child accounts.

Testing Guidelines:

• Before fully integrating the software into your trading activities, we recommend taking the following steps for the initial 2-3 days. Since you are new to the software, it may take some time to become familiar with its functionalities.
• Begin by experimenting with all order types using minimal quantities initially (e.g., 1 quantity for Equity and 1 Lot for Options). This is important due to potential variations in order placement formats among different brokers.
• Additionally, test order splitting with some small orders.
• Deliberately create scenarios, such as a child account order being rejected, to gain an understanding of how notifications are received and where you can find this information.
• Once you have confidence that the software is running smoothly, and you are familiar with all its features and the display of information in different areas, only then proceed to use it extensively in your regular trading.

Software Configuration:

• Configure all parameters, including enabling Splitting and Segment activation, child a/c order rejection settings, in the settings of the copy trading software before starting.

VPS and Account Limits:

• Be aware of the limitations of VPS; the free AWS tier versions may support 5-6 child accounts. If you exceed this limit, it might be necessary to consider using a paid VPS version. It’s important to note that there is no restriction on the number of child accounts you can add.
• If you intend to run the software on your local system, it is essential to maintain a continuous internet connection with a minimum bandwidth of 2MBPS, along with uninterrupted access to electricity. Additionally, ensure that no other software disrupts your system, as these factors can impact the performance of the software.

User Proficiency:

• Users should possess basic computer knowledge.
• Software installation and credential entry must be done on the client side. Support teams are available for guidance.

Issue Resolution:

• In case of any problems, promptly contact the support team.
• Submit log files as and a detailed explanation of the issue in written as instructed for efficient issue resolution.

How to use?

Add/Edit/Delete Accounts

Step 1: Add Parent account (Master Account) 
To add an account, you will need your broker login details along with broker API details

Step 2: Add Child account 
To add an account, you will need your broker login details along with broker API details

Here you can also set Multiplier which can be used as Qty Multiplier
It is useful when managing accounts with a different capital.

[Child Account Quantity] = [Parent Order Quantity] * [Account Multiplier]

Note: The default value for the multiplier is 1. But it can be a fractional number as well. For example, a multiplier of 2 will result in double the original order quantity.

How does auto-copy work?

Step 1: Select Multiple Accounts wanted to log in and mark an account as a parent account

Step 2: Sync data (It will sync instrument/symbol across all brokers you have added)
