Profit Sharing
Overview
Profit sharing is the mechanism by which lead traders (strategy providers) earn income from the realized profits of their followers' trades. Profits are calculated and distributed every week, or when specific events trigger early settlement.
Profit Calculation and Distribution Schedule
📅 Weekly Settlement
Time: Every Monday at 00:00 (UTC+8)
Condition: All positions in the strategy portfolio must be closed.
If open positions remain, settlement is postponed until the next eligible cycle when all trades are closed.
Profit Distribution Formula
Components Explained:
Total Realized Profit = Sum of all realized profits and losses from closed trades in the strategy portfolio.
Profit Ratio = The percentage of profits shared with the lead trader (e.g., 10%, 20%).
Total Distributed = Total amount already paid to the lead trader in previous settlements.
Profit Ratio Adjustment Difference = Accounts for any changes in the profit-sharing ratio during the project period.
🧮 Profit Ratio Adjustment Formula
If the profit ratio changes mid-project, an adjustment is applied:
Adjustment Difference=(Distributed Amount at Time of Change+Cumulative Adjustments)×New Ratio−Old RatioOld Ratio\text{Adjustment Difference} = (\text{Distributed Amount at Time of Change} + \text{Cumulative Adjustments}) \times \frac{\text{New Ratio} - \text{Old Ratio}}{\text{Old Ratio}}Adjustment Difference=(Distributed Amount at Time of Change+Cumulative Adjustments)×Old RatioNew Ratio−Old Ratio
This ensures fairness if profit ratios are increased or decreased while trades are still active.
Additional Profit Distribution Scenarios
Besides the scheduled weekly payout, profit sharing is also triggered in the following cases:
The follower manually stops copy trading.
The lead trader closes or ends the investment project.
In both scenarios, profits are calculated immediately based on closed trades only, and distributed accordingly.
