IDTraders has run social trading since 2008. For most of that time it served a community that found it by word of mouth. In 2026 it opened to the world — a new public site, a rebuilt set of client tools, and a body of writing meant to make copying understandable to someone who has never traded. This is the record of what changed, and why.
Multiple wallets
Client balances moved from a single figure to separate wallets: Main, Copy, IB, Reward and trading. The reason was containment — a copy can reach only the allocation it belongs to — and legibility: each source of result is visible on its own line. Multiple wallets has the map.
Commitment packages
Copiers can now lock an allocation with a master for a fixed term — three, six or twelve months — in exchange for a larger profit share for the whole term. Package bonuses are credited separately to the Reward Wallet so that their contribution is visible. Stopping early forfeits the bonus, not the capital; moving to another master keeps it. A worked twelve months shows the arithmetic.
Change master
A copy — including one on a package — can be moved to a different master from the dashboard in one step. Profit to date settles with the previous master; the allocation, the package and its term carry over. Two rules: the current master must have no open trades, and one change per account per 24 hours. The 24-hour rule explains both.
The stop-out engine
Margin on every open position is checked every 15 seconds, in trading hours for forex, metals and indices, and continuously for crypto. The weekly break — Friday 22:00 to Sunday 22:00 GMT for non-crypto instruments — is enforced by the platform rather than left to hope. The weekend gap explains what that protects against.
Deposits and withdrawals
USDT on BEP-20 and TRC-20; free deposits, automatic crediting on confirmation, a registered-wallet system for withdrawals confirmed by email code, and a withdrawal screen that shows both totals — what leaves and what arrives — before anything is submitted. Step by step walks the whole round trip.
KYC before the first withdrawal
Verification — ID, address, selfie, human review — is required before withdrawing and before cumulative deposits pass USD 1,000. KYC describes each step and the mistakes that cause rejections.
The partner program
Fifteen levels of introducer earnings from a pool that is a quarter of every copy fee; three programs that split the pool differently; nine ranks earned on commitment volume counted on both legs, with bonuses, salaries and rewards. Every figure on the partner pages is read live from the platform's settings, so the site can never disagree with the engine. The introducer pool and Ranks have the detail.
The public site
Thirty-three pages, rebuilt. Legal documents — Terms of Service, Risk Disclosure, Privacy Policy, AML & KYC, Cookie Policy — written in full rather than in outline. A Legal & Licensing page that shows the platform's licensing status honestly, including "pending" when that is the truth. Live prices from the same exchange feed the terminal uses. An economic calendar that updates itself every half hour. Market hours with the four sessions live and daylight-saving handled automatically. Master profiles, ranks and programs all drawn from the platform's database rather than typed.
Learning
Step-by-step guides for the eight things every new client does — register, log in, verify, deposit, follow, package, withdraw, become an introducer — written against the actual screens, with room for screenshots and video. And this blog: fifty articles on forex, gold, Bitcoin, risk, social trading and the platform itself, written to be read once and understood, each with the numbers worked out.
What did not change
The model. Your money stays in your wallets; a master's trades are mirrored into your allocation in proportion; the master never holds your funds; you can stop with a button. The profit share — half of the profit on copied trades, nothing on losses. The masters, many of whom have been on the platform for years. The support team, and the hours on the Contact page.
What comes next
Master trader applications reopen to clients with six months on the platform and five years of experience; the date will be announced by email and on the dashboard. Video tutorials will appear on the Learn page as they are recorded. Licensing progresses on the Legal & Licensing page, step by step, in public. And the blog continues — most weeks, one article, one idea, worked through.
Eighteen years of copying, opened to the world with new walls around the money, new tools for moving it, and fifty articles explaining how it all works. The model is the same. The door is open.
This article is education, not investment advice. Trading and copy trading in leveraged instruments carry a high risk of losing the funds you allocate. Read the Risk Disclosure.
