Every trader knows that placing the same trade on 3 or 4 accounts takes time. Each extra click also increases the risk of entering the wrong lot size or missing an entry. At Goat Funded Trader, we built the GOAT Trade Copier to take that work off your hands.
The tool is a prop firm trade copier built into your dashboard. Place trades on one lead account, and your linked accounts (the followers) automatically copy each move. The copier supports MetaTrader 5 (MT5), cTrader, MatchTrader, and TradeLocker, with all copying handled in the cloud.
Each account still follows the rules of its own funding model, so keep the individual limits in mind when copying trades.
What Is the GOAT Trade Copier?
The GOAT Trade Copier is trade copier software that automatically copies trades from one lead Goat Funded Trader account to other accounts you own. The lead account is where you place trades manually. Any other account linked to it becomes a follower and automatically copies your trades. You can connect as many follower accounts as you need.
Each follower has its own position size, copying settings, and trade history. You can also stop copying on one follower without affecting the others.
For example, say you have a 1-Step, a 2-Step, and an Instant account. You choose the 1-Step account as your lead and place a buy order. The 2-Step and Instant accounts then open the same trade automatically, based on their individual copying settings.
As a trade copier for prop firms, the GOAT Trade Copier makes it easier to manage several accounts without placing every order manually. All GFT accounts use simulated trading environments, but the rewards you earn are real.
The Only Allowed Way to Copy Trades at Goat Funded Trader
The GOAT Trade Copier is the only approved way to copy trades across your Goat Funded Trader accounts. Our risk management system recognizes trades placed through the copier, so they won't be flagged as prohibited copy trading.
This means you can manage several GFT accounts through one approved tool while staying within our trading rules. You can copy trades between accounts you own, but copying trades from external accounts or other traders is not allowed.
What You Can Copy
You can copy trades between any of your own Goat Funded Trader accounts, regardless of their stage:
- Evaluation to Evaluation
- Evaluation to Funded
- Funded to Evaluation
- Funded to Funded
What You Cannot Do
The following activities are prohibited:
-
Copy trades from external accounts, including your own accounts outside GFT.
-
Copy trades from other traders, signal providers, or trading groups.
-
Use third-party copying software, other copy-trading tools, or copier Expert Advisors (EAs).
Breaking these rules may result in account termination. If you currently use another prop firm trade copier, switch to the GOAT Trade Copier to remain compliant across your GFT accounts.
Key Features of the GOAT Trade Copier
From cross-platform copying to cloud access and individual follower settings, the tool gives you control over how trades move between your accounts.
Below are the key features that make this trade copier software useful for GFT traders.
Works Across Four Trading Platforms
You can copy trades between MetaTrader 5 (MT5), cTrader, MatchTrader, and TradeLocker, even when your lead and follower accounts use different platforms. For example, a trade placed on an MT5 lead account can be copied to a cTrader follower. The same applies when copying from TradeLocker to MetaTrader.
This cross-platform support means you don't need to use the same trading platform across all your GFT accounts. You can choose the platform that works best for each account and still copy trades between them.
Runs in the Cloud
The GOAT Trade Copier runs through cloud-based terminals, so there is no software to install on your computer. After setting up your lead and follower accounts, copying continues in the cloud, even when your computer is switched off.
You can leave the copier running while you sleep, travel, or step away from your desk. You also don't need to keep a computer or local trading terminal open for your follower accounts to receive copied trades.
Individual Controls for Every Follower
Each follower account has its own copying settings, giving you control over how trades are placed. You can choose a position-sizing mode, set a maximum lot size, filter specific trading symbols, and add a delay before copied orders are opened.
For instance, you can set one follower to copy the lead account's exact lot size while another uses a different sizing method. You can also limit the symbols copied to a particular account or set a maximum lot size to control exposure.
These settings can be adjusted while the copier is running, so you don't have to stop the entire setup to change how an individual follower copies trades.
6 Sizing Modes Explained With Simple Examples
Sizing decides how big each copied trade is on a follower, and it is the heart of any prop firm trade copier.
You pick the mode for each follower, so small and large followers can use different modes.
| Sizing mode | What it does | Simple example |
|---|---|---|
| Equity to equity | Scales each trade by the size of the follower compared with the lead | Lead has $100,000, and follower has $10,000. Lead trades 1 lot, follower trades 0.1 lot. |
| Lot multiplier | Multiply the lead lot size by a number you pick. Use 1 for identical lots. | Multiplier 0.5. Lead trades 2 lots, follower trades 1 lot. |
| Risk multiplier | Scales the risk of each lead trade by a number you pick | Multiplier 2 doubles the risk on the follower. Multiplier 0.5 halves it. |
| Fixed lot | Uses 1 lot size for every copied trade | Fixed lot 0.2 opens 0.2 lots, whatever size the lead uses. |
| Fixed % risk | Risks a set share of the follower on each trade | 1% on a $10,000 follower risks $100 per trade. |
| Fixed risk amount | Risks a set amount of money on each trade | $50 risks $50 on every copied trade. |
Pay close attention to the lot multiplier. A multiplier of 1 copies the same lot size across all accounts. For example, a $10,000 follower takes 10 times the relative risk of a $100,000 lead. Use equity-to-equity sizing to adjust lot sizes based on each account's balance.
How to Set Up the GOAT Trade Copier, Step by Step
Log in to the Trader Dashboard and open the Copier page at app.goatfundedtrader.com/copier.
Subscribe. Choose the total number of accounts, including the lead, and pay by card.
Select the lead account.
Select your follower accounts.
Set the sizing for each follower. Add a lot cap, symbol filters, or a copy delay if you want them.
Trade the lead as usual. Followers copy each trade automatically.
The trade copier software requires no download, so you can set everything up in your dashboard. A video walkthrough of about 3 minutes is also available in our help centre.
How Much the GOAT Trade Copier Costs
The GOAT Trade Copier costs $2 per connected account per month, including the lead account.
-
Minimum plan covers two accounts (one lead and one follower) for $4 per month.
-
3 accounts cost $6, while five cost $10. There is no account limit, so you can add more followers as your trading setup grows.
For example, connecting one lead account and 4 followers gives you 5 accounts at $10 per month. Adding another follower brings the total to 6 accounts and increases the monthly cost to $12. This simple pricing makes the GOAT Trade Copier an affordable trade copier for prop firms with multiple accounts.
Benefits of Using a Prop Firm Trade Copier
Saves time: You place 1 trade, and every follower copies it.
Cuts errors: You skip retyping lots and symbols on each account.
Fits each account: Sizing modes scale trades to the size of every follower.
Protects small accounts: Lot caps and symbol filters keep copied trades inside the limits of each follower.
Keeps you focused: You watch 1 chart, not 5 platforms.
How Our Copier Works With Each Funding Model
Each account is checked against its own rules, including daily drawdown, maximum loss, floating loss, and consistency. A trade that fits a large lead account could breach the limits of a smaller follower. Adjust position sizes and limits to suit each account.
Our prop firm trade copier follows your settings, so you're responsible for managing the risk on every account.
1-Step Evaluation
The 1-Step model has a 10% profit target and needs 3 profitable days. A profitable day means you close at least 1 position and make 0.5% or more of the starting balance, after fees and commissions. The daily drawdown is 3%, or 2% if you choose the lower option at checkout, and the maximum loss is 6% static.
Funded accounts add a $3,000 daily profit cap and need 4 profitable days per reward cycle. The split is 80%, with a 100% add-on, and there is no consistency rule. On a follower with the 2% daily option, set a lot cap so 1 copied trade cannot use up the room for the day.
2-Step GOAT Evaluation
This model has 2 evaluation steps with profit targets of 8% and 6%. The daily drawdown is 4% in every stage, and the maximum loss is 10% static. Each step needs 3 profitable days, and there is no consistency rule.
Profit split is 80%. A 1% Floating version adds a limit of 1% of the starting balance on floating loss, counted across all open trades together. If you pick this version, the open loss of every copied trade adds up on the follower, so keep the lot multiplier low and add a lot cap.
2-Step PREMIUM Evaluation
The split is 85%. Step 1 has a 10% target, and Step 2 asks for 5% or 6%, your choice at checkout. The daily drawdown is 3% or 4%, also your choice, and the maximum loss is 10% static.
- Funded accounts need 7 profitable days per reward.
- Goat Guard applies on funded accounts as well.
A combined floating loss of 2% cuts your split to 50% the first time and breaches the account the second time. There is no consistency rule, but your best trade must be at least as large as your worst one. A Fixed % risk setting keeps a funded follower well under the Goat Guard line.
2-Step $100K Account
Priced at $99, this $100,000 account has profit targets of 10% in Step 1 and 5% in Step 2. Both stages have a 3% daily drawdown and an 8% static maximum loss until your first reward.
- Funded accounts require 4 profitable days of at least $500 each, with a $2,000 reward cap and an 80% profit split.
Two funded rules need attention: the 40% consistency rule limits any single day's profit to 40% of total profits in a reward period, while the floating loss limit is $1,000 (1%). A large winning day on your lead account can affect followers too, so check each account before requesting a reward.
Instant PREMIUM
Instant PREMIUM gives you a funded account right away, with no evaluation. The daily drawdown is 3%, and the maximum loss is 6% intraday trailing, which resets after each reward. The floating loss limit is 1% of the balance (1.5% on accounts bought before September 2, 2026).
- You need 5 profitable days; the split is 80%, and rewards come every 14 days on new accounts.
There is no consistency rule. A trailing limit rises with each new equity high on every account, so check each follower on its own.
Instant HERO
Instant HERO pays the highest split of the Instant line at 90%, and a 100% add-on is available at checkout. The daily drawdown is 3%, the maximum loss is 5% trailing and resets after each reward, and the floating loss limit is 1%.
- You need 6 profitable days, and rewards come every 14 days.
A 15% consistency rule says no single day may exceed 15% of total profit in a reward period. Breaking it does not close the account, but it blocks rewards. Followers copy the same trades, so they usually share the lead's day-by-day profit shape, and 1 huge day can block rewards on several accounts.
Instant GOAT
Instant GOAT has an 80% split, a 3% daily drawdown and a 6% trailing maximum loss. Its floating loss limit is 2% of the starting balance across all open trades, the highest of the 4 Instant models.
On a $50,000 account, a combined open loss of $1,000 closes it. The 15% consistency rule applies here too. A $1,500 best day needs a total profit of at least $10,000 before you can request a reward.
- You need 5 profitable days, and rewards come every 14 days.
An extra floating room does not suit a small follower, so use a lot cap there.
Instant DAILY
Instant DAILY is a funded account with daily rewards and a 30-day life. Account sizes run from $1,000 to $50,000. There is no daily drawdown, but the maximum loss is 3% trailing and locked at your starting balance, and the floating loss limit is 1%.
- You need no minimum profitable days and face no consistency rule, yet your best trade must be at least as large as your worst.
Each reward request is 1% to 3% of the starting balance. The split starts at 60%, rises to 70% from the 3rd reward, and reaches 80% from the 5th. The 1% floating limit is small. On a $5,000 follower, it equals $50, so a lot cap is a must.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens to limit and stop orders?
Limit and stop orders are copied only after they trigger on the lead account. While an order is pending, your followers show nothing. This is on purpose, so no follower holds a trade the lead does not have. Followers copy the trade only when it becomes live on the lead, which keeps every account in step.
Can I keep my old copier subscription?
No. After October 12, 2026, an existing third-party copier subscription cannot continue on Goat Funded Trader accounts. Any other copier, copy-trading tool, or copying Expert Advisor is a prohibited practice and may lead to account termination. Cancel the old subscription with its provider, and move your accounts to the GOAT Trade Copier.
Does the copier count as VPS use?
No. The GOAT Trade Copier is not counted as Virtual Private Server (VPS) or hosted-service use. Other copiers running on a VPS or hosted setup are prohibited. The Internet Protocol (IP) Address and Account Access Policy gives the full rules on this topic, so read it if you use a VPS for other work.
Which payment methods work?
Only card payments work. Crypto and other methods are not accepted. You choose the total number of accounts when you subscribe, and the lead counts as 1 of them. Each account costs $2 monthly, so 10 accounts come to $20. Plan the total before you subscribe, so the count matches your accounts.
What should I send to support?
Send your lead account number and a screenshot of the Copier page. These 2 items help the team find your setup fast. Before you write in, check the lot caps and symbol filters on each follower, as these limits can stop a trade from copying. Add a short note on which follower is missing the trade.
