# Active Copy

**The Копитрейдинг sub-tab — every copy you have running, with controls to pause, resize, or stop.**

When you press **Copy** on a trader from the Top board, a copy route is created. **Active Copy** is the dashboard for every route that is currently live.

## What you see per row

* **Trader** — who you are copying.
* **Started** — when the copy began.
* **My size** — the per-trade size your copy uses (typically a fraction of theirs).
* **Their last trade** — most recent action they took that your copy mirrored.
* **Open P/L** — live profit-or-loss on positions still working.
* **Closed P/L** — realised profit-or-loss on positions that already settled.
* **Actions** — `Pause` / `Resize` / `Stop`.

## Actions

* **Pause** — new trades the trader opens are not mirrored. Existing copied positions remain open until they settle or you close them manually on the market page.
* **Resize** — change the per-trade size for future copied trades. Existing positions are not modified.
* **Stop** — end the copy. New trades stop mirroring; existing positions can settle naturally or be closed manually.

A stopped copy moves to **History**.

## Reading Open vs Closed P/L

The two columns answer different questions:

* **Open P/L** is mark-to-market on positions still in flight. It moves as the market does. Treat it as an interim signal, not a final result.
* **Closed P/L** is realised — locked in. This is the column that tells you how the copy actually performed.

Closed P/L is the column you compare to your expectations. Open P/L is the column that tempts you to pause early on a bad day.

## Managing multiple copies

If you have copies stacked across multiple traders:

* The Active Copy table shows each route independently. Pause / Resize / Stop applies per row.
* Aggregate exposure (sum of all copies' open positions) sits in your [**Wallet**](/graphdex-docs/wallet-predictions/wallet-overview.md) under My Assets, mixed with your direct positions.
* Concentration risk shows up at the Wallet level, not in Active Copy. Check Wallet periodically when stacking.

## When to stop a copy

* **Strategy drift** — the trader moved into categories you didn't sign up for.
* **Sample size grew enough to reject the hypothesis** — closed P/L is materially negative after enough trades.
* **You overextended** — total copied exposure is bigger than you want.

Stopping is reversible — you can copy the same trader again from Top.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Pausing freezes new copies; it does not close open positions. To exit a position, close it from the market page or wait for resolution.

## FAQs

<details>

<summary>Does resizing affect open positions?</summary>

No. Resize applies only to trades the copy mirrors going forward. Open copied positions stay at whatever size they were opened at.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What happens if the trader I copy closes their account?</summary>

The copy stops generating new trades. Open positions you inherited still settle naturally.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Can I see exactly which copied trades are open right now?</summary>

Yes — they show up in [Wallet → My Assets](/graphdex-docs/wallet-predictions/wallet-overview.md) alongside your direct positions. Tagging the source trader is on the roadmap for that view.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://graphdex-1.gitbook.io/graphdex-docs/copy-trading/active-copy.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
