cTrader Copy Trading — Mirror the Aurex XAUUSD Strategy

If you prefer cTrader to MetaTrader 5, the same Aurex gold strategy is available through cTrader Copy. You allocate capital to the strategy from your own cTrader account, keep full control of your funds, and can stop copying at any time.

cTrader Copy shows verified performance statistics on the broker side, so you can review drawdown and return history before allocating.

cTrader Copy is a broker-side copy trading system, which means the mirroring happens on the broker's servers rather than through software running on your computer. Once you allocate funds to a strategy, your account follows its trades automatically — there is nothing to install, nothing to keep switched on, and no VPS required.

The Aurex gold strategy is published on cTrader Copy so traders who prefer cTrader over MetaTrader 5 can follow the same approach. Allocation is proportional: the volume opened on your account scales to the capital you allocate, so a smaller account takes proportionally smaller positions rather than the strategy's raw lot size.

You keep control at all times. Funds stay in your own brokerage account, you can stop copying or withdraw your allocation whenever you choose, and performance fees only apply on new high-water-mark profit, so you are never charged twice for recovering a drawdown.

Before allocating, check three things: the strategy's maximum historical drawdown, the length of its track record, and whether your allocation is small enough that the worst historical drawdown would still be tolerable on your account. Copy trading does not remove market risk — it only removes the manual execution step.

Frequently asked questions

Is cTrader copy trading better than an MT5 copier?

It is simpler — copying runs on the broker's servers instead of your machine. An MT5 copier gives finer local control over risk per trade. The right choice depends on which platform your broker account uses.

Can I close a copied trade myself?

Yes. You can stop copying or exit your allocation at any time, though intervening manually changes your results relative to the strategy.
