3. Signal Provider
3.1 Moneta Markets servers keep track of signal providers’ “buy” and “sell” signals. By using the platform, Clients can view, analyse and evaluate signals of the signal providers. Once a copier decides to copy from a signal provider, the said positions shall be opened automatically and shall be executed on the copier’s trading account.
3.2 The copier is informed that he/she will be in a position to view signals from all signal providers that are available on Moneta Markets CopyTrader mobile app. It is further noted that this is subject to the Company’s discretion in accordance with the legislative requirements in each jurisdiction whether the client shall have access to all signal providers and whether a Suitability Test as well as the assessment of the signal providers, which signal providers are eligible to be available (“eligible signal providers”) for each copier shall be performed.
3.3 The copy trading platform enables a full trading functionality for automated and/or manual trading where clients are able to perform the following:
(a) Automatic copy trading. The copiers can select signal providers with trading portfolio or track records that match their personal trading preferences, such as risk tolerance and investment objectives. Once a signal provider has been selected by the copier, all the signals sent by the eligible signal provider will be automatically applied to the copier’s trading account with the Company. No intervention is required by the copier as all account activity is controlled by the signal provider.
(b) Semi-Automatic copy trading: Clients can view all the signals of eligible signal providers in real time. The copiers can choose which trades to copy and execute in their own trading accounts with the Company. Once the copiers select a signal for copying, they can decide if they wish to close the trade manually or they may prefer to let the position be closed automatically when the eligible signal provider closes it.
It is further noted that even if the copiers will have a variety of trades from the signal providers to choose from, to be selected to be added to their trading account, copiers will be in a position to set their own preferences. In addition, copiers will have the ability at any time to manually close trades, irrespective of the mode to be selected.
Before using the Automated Services, the copier has to ensure that:
1. He/she has fully understood the services offered by the Company through undertaking his/her own research into the offering or receiving the Automated Services;
2. Confirms that he/she understands that the past trading results of the signal providers presented are no guarantee of future results;
3. Confirms that he/she understands, and accepts all the risks associated with margin trading on the financial markets;
4. Understands that the signal provider(s) are not employees or agents or representatives of the Company, nor are they endorsed by the Company
5. Acknowledges that his/her trading account may be located on a different server to that of the signal provider, meaning that orders may be opened or closed on the signal provider’s server at a different price than on the trading account of the copier;
6. Accepts all risks associated with the different trading conditions which may exist between the copier’s trading account, and the signal provider’s trading account, which may result in some trading actions being impossible to execute; and

In case of a replacement, the Company does not guarantee that the risk rating and/or economic performance of the replacement trade will be identical and/or similar therefore you further acknowledge that this will not take into account your economic performance, portfolio characteristics and/or any features of your account.
5. Suitability Test
Automated services can be provided in accordance and pursuant to the applicable legislative and regulatory framework. To this effect, prior to the provision of the automated services the Company shall collect information and evidence in order to assess whether client(s) are eligible for these services and whether the automated services are suitable for the given client(s). The result of the suitability test shall formulate the investment profile of the clients and whether the automated services are suitable. Depending on the result of the suitability test, the Company can deny access to the automated services to the clients who achieve a low score/fail the suitability test. In this case the Company shall not be liable and/or accepts no responsibility for any incurred losses as a result of providing false and/or misleading information during the performance of the suitability test with the Company as there is a risk that this will lead to a false investment profile which may not be suitable for you.

It is further noted that the Company does not guarantee any performance whereas you should refer to the Risk Disclosure with regards to the inherent risks of the products you would like to trade with automated services.
Past performance is not an indication of future results whereas any reference to past risk scores, statistics and/or any other data/material/information with regards to the signal providers and the Company under the provision of automated services are not an indication of future results. The Company accepts no responsibility nor liability with regards to the outcome of your trading neither for profits or losses and does not guarantee that the outcome of the automated services shall be the same like the signal provider’s.
8. Conflicts of Interest
The Company shall act in the best interest of its clients when providing automated services however, there may be cases where clients’ best interest may be in conflict with another client’s best interest or the Company’s. Please refer to the Client Agreement for more information on conflicts of interest.
9. Trading via Automated Services
Once you register with the Company you will be able to log in to Moneta Markets CopyTrader mobile app with your platform credentials. Before you are able to copy from a signal provider you will need to ensure that your trading account is sufficiently funded whereas such funds will be allocated to your copied account. Once you have selected the signal provider(s) of your choice to copy from, the trades will be automatically executed for you which means that you hereby acknowledge that no confirmation shall be obtained from you before positions are executed. Similarly, the opening of such positions will not require your authorization, prior consent or prior approval whereas trades below the minimum amount shall not be opened/executed. In case copy trading is chosen and you choose to close a single position while copying the signal provider, the trading balance will be proportionally redistributed among the remaining open positions during the next rebalancing process.
Please be informed that when using automated services, there are several restrictions to consider. These restrictions include the minimum and maximum amounts that can be invested, limitations on the number of signal providers you can copy from, as well as the minimum number of trades and the maximum amount allowed for investment.
Execution of trades when copy trading is used can occur in the following ways:
9.1 All open trades in a certain account and new trades which are opened after you copy from a signal provider;
9.2 Only new trades which are opened following the subscription to a signal provider i.e., trades will not be entered prior to this point.
9.3 You are permitted to copy existing and new trades.
When you are copying trades which are currently open, the positions will be opened at the best available price at the time of copying and not the price at the time which the trade was originally opened. IF the relevant markets are closed at the time of copying, the market order will be opened once the market(s) reopen at the first available price.
When you are copying only new trades:
9.4 The positions will be opened at the same time as the trades are being copied;
9.5 All instructions/actions will be automatically executed and reflected on your trading account including orders such as stop loss, take profit and trade closure. This means that in case the signal provider you have copied from extends the stop loss then this will be automatically reflected on your account too, however the position amount will remain unchanged.
It is noted that Moneta Markets may provide additional features from time to time at its sole discretion which may affect the automated services.
10. Profit-sharing model
The copiers agree to compensate signal providers for the provision of copy trading services offered, based on a profit-sharing model that the Company designs to ensure fair and competitive profit sharing. The profit-sharing model, as governed by the terms and conditions set forth herein, should determine how signal providers are compensated.
10.1 Signal providers are given unrestricted access to set a profit-sharing ratio ranging from 0% (lowest) to 50% (highest), which is imposed on the copier’s gain[1], as per the high-water mark (“HWM”) rules. Signal providers may change the profit-sharing ratio at any time; however, the change does not affect the percentage amount due under any existing copied trades with the signal providers. Once a trade has been successfully copied from a signal provider, the profit-sharing ratio is set, fixed and unalterable.
10.2 The profit-sharing ratio is only applicable when signal providers generate a profit from the trades copied by the copiers, as per the HWM rules. In event of losses, signal providers will not be compensated.
10.3 HWM refers to the highest value that a copier’s current floating profit level[2] has ever reached. Based on the HWM rules, signal providers are required to keep their copier’s current floating profit level above the HWM threshold during each weekly settlement in order to receive a performance fee from the copier, which is derived from the gain difference between the current floating profit level and the HWM. Signal providers are not entitled to any compensation if their copier’s current floating profit level falls below the HWM.
10.4 The current floating profit level of a copier is evaluated and settled on every Saturday from 0000 to 0200 (GMT+3 during Daylight-Saving time or GMT+2 during Standard ‘Winter’ Time), unless otherwise informed in writing. The settlement schedule or timing is subject to change without prior notice, and under no circumstances shall the Company be liable regardless of the form of action for any failure of performance, system, server or connection failure, error, malfunction, omission, interruption, delay in transmission or communication, internet access difficulties or computer virus.
10.5 If qualified as per clause 10.3., a performance fee calculated based on the profit-sharing ratio, will be withdrawn from the copier’s account, and paid to the copied signal provider as a form of commission. The current floating profit level before fee realization becomes the new HWM threshold.
10.6 The payment of such performance fee can only take place when the copier’s margin level is 100% or higher following the fee realization. The Company reserves the right to withhold, forfeit or cancel the performance fee if the margin level is under 100% or bound to fall under 100% upon fee realization.
10.7 Copiers are allowed to deposit and/or withdraw while holding open position(s) with signal providers. The amount eligible for withdrawal is subject to the maximum allowable deduction after taking account of the payable fees and margin level.
The Company reserves the right at its absolute discretion to amend the profit-sharing model described herein from time to time without prior notice. The Company’s decision or resolution regarding the profit-sharing model and/or in every situation including any not covered by these terms and conditions, shall be final and binding on all copiers and signal providers.
