BitMEX Launches New Copy Trading Features, Including Groundbreaking Reverse Copy Trading
Mahe, Seychelles, August 20, 2025 — BitMEX , a pioneer in cryptocurrency derivatives trading, today announced the launch of its new Copy Trading feature. This innovative tool simplifies access to sophisticated trading strategies by enabling users to automatically copy the trades of top professionals.
Furthermore, BitMEX pioneered the "Copy Trade" feature, a groundbreaking feature not available on many other platforms. This allows users to strategically choose to trade in the opposite direction of a trader. This dual functionality provides traders with unprecedented flexibility, allowing them to choose whether to follow the prevailing trend or hedge based on their market judgment.
This new feature addresses a common challenge faced by many traders: a lack of time or expertise to actively monitor the fast-paced derivatives markets. By enabling users to automatically follow or reverse the actions of experienced traders, or take the opposite approach through reverse copy trading, BitMEX is making complex trading strategies accessible to a wider audience, whether beginners or those with limited time.
“Since 2014, BitMEX has been home to some of the most experienced and skilled traders in crypto. Through copy trading, we are democratizing their expertise and enabling our users to replicate their success,” said Stephan Lutz, CEO of BitMEX. “This feature simplifies the trading process, reduces the burden of constant market monitoring, and provides our community with a unique opportunity to participate in the crypto derivatives market more efficiently,” he added.
How BitMEX Copy Trading works:
BitMEX’s copy trading feature allows users to become “followers” and automatically copy the trades of selected “lead traders”.
● Become a Follower: Users can browse and filter top traders in the copy trading market, also known as "Copy Traders". Once selected, users can allocate a specific amount of funds and the system will automatically copy their trades.
● Reverse Copy Trading: Users can choose to take a position opposite to that of a selected trader. This feature is designed for users who are strategically hedging or hold a contrarian market view.
● Full control: Users have full control over their risks and can set personal risk parameters, including stop-loss and take-profit levels.
● Additional benefits for copy traders: Experienced traders can apply to become copy traders and receive up to 50% of the profit sharing from followers, thereby gaining an additional source of income and building a reputation in the community.
Key advantages of copy trading on BitMEX:
● Access to top traders: BitMEX has been a hub for top traders since 2014. You can copy the strategies of the most successful and experienced traders in the industry.
● Diversified strategies: You can follow up to 5 traders at the same time to build a robust and diversified trading portfolio.
● Automated Trading: An ideal solution for busy individuals or market newbies, this allows for the automation of cryptocurrency derivatives trading.
● Fully Customizable: Users have full control over their trading funds and can set personalized risk parameters for each copied trade. To learn more and get started with Copy Trading, visit this page .
