How to Tell if a Trader on Binance Copy Trading is Real or Using a Mock Account
Before copying any trader, make sure to check for these key indicators:
1. Look for the “Mock” Tag
If you see "Mock" next to a trader's name, it means they’re using a demo (fake) account — not real money.
Avoid copying mock traders if you’re investing seriously.
2. No “Mock” Tag = Real Account
If there's no "Mock" label, the trader is likely using real funds, meaning their trades involve actual risk and reward.
3. Important Stats to Check Before Copying:
30D ROI: Return over the last 30 days.
30D MDD (Max Drawdown): Risk level — the lower, the safer.
AUM (Assets Under Management): Shows how much others are copying — a good sign of trust.
Sharpe Ratio: Measures risk-adjusted returns — higher is better.
Pro Tip:
Don’t copy traders just because of flashy profits. Always verify if it’s a real account and evaluate their risk management and consistency.
