I'm so sick and tired of seeing people blaming cTrader. cTrader does provide ALL the tools needed to evaluate a strategy provider. thuthach97148 wasn't even trading for two weeks! Do you really think only a few days of trading history is enough to determine whether a trader actually knows what he/she is doing? Do you really think it's possible to get a 5000% return in 10 days? Did you think it's OK if a strategy provider has an 80% equity drawdown every other day? I bet you were deciding what colour of Lamborghini you were going to get in 3 months after investing $1000.

Well, no not really. I wasn't expecting a 5000% return, I copied the guy from my demo two days into his strategy and it seemed like he knew what he's doing. At times he'd be down 30% on the day and make it back before the day ends. Anything he did before today made a lot of sense as I was following up with his trades with my own analysis. I work 13 hours a day and I don't get the chance to day trade and this feature looked like it'd help me make some passive income. It's just messed up that my stop loss on the copy didn't trigger. This just made me think that just like they have a stop out feature on trades, they should have the same on volatile copies like this one.. 

I couldn't find any decent ones to copy anyway, the phone app doesn't really have a way to filter out accounts and it's tedious to have to go through each and every one, specially that they're all similar this early on.
