Conclusion. 1. PowerTradeCopier Installiation. With single installation package, you can install the PowerTradeCopier on multiple computers, but the computer on which the very first installation was executed, acquires a special status - it is the main or MasterMachine. This fact is recorded on the developer's site by linking your license to the hardware configuration of your computer. Executing the same installation package on the second and subsequent computers, makes these computers linked and subordinate to the MasterMachine, and each of them became SlaveMachine and can perform only the work that is specified to him on MasterMachine. You can change the computer for MasterMachine. To do so, you have to contact the developer, the developer will remove the binding of your license to the old hardware configuration and set the new binding to new hardware configuration when you execute the same installer package on another computer. Such computer change for MasterMachine does not affect the work of subordinates SlaveMachines. To install PowerTradeCopier you should use Setup procedure. The procedure is the same for all versions of PowerTradeCopier. If you install PowerTradeCopier under Windows Vista or Windows 7 please make sure that Setup program InstalCopy_rez.exe has write access for it's selected folder, or run it as Administrator user. When InstalCopy_rez.exe completed, make sure that program PreloadCopyMT.exe installed in selected folder also has write access to this folder. So, make sure that you have access to the Internet and you may begin the installation.

2 1. Run Setup program InstalCopy_rez.exe. The following screen will appear: 2. Click Next to continue installation or Cancel to exit. For Next the following screen will appear: 3. Click Registration to continue, Prev to return to previous step, or Cancel to cancel installation. If you click Registration, the following screen will appear:

3 4. When the End User License Agreement appears, Click Next to continue, Prev to return to previous step, or Cancel to cancel installation. If you click Next, the following screen will appear: 5. As you may see default destination folder is displayed. By default the destination folder is set to C:\Program Files\CopyToolNet. Click the Browse button to select the different destination folder for installation. After destination folder is confirmed, click Install to continue installation, Prev to return to previous step, or Cancel to cancel installation. If you click Install, the following screen will appear:

4 The process of installation is quite fast. Upon successful completion of the installation, the following screen will appear: 6.Click Exit. On your desktop and Main Menu such shortcut will be created: So, all work with installation is completed, installation is done!

5 It remains to consider another issue associated with the installation: How to Upgrade or Downgrade PowerTradeCopier? Updates do not download automatically. To get the update 1. you should run PowerTradeCopier on your MasterMachine go to the Settings-window and click Update button: You will see the currently available versions list:

6 Please select the version that you wish to get and press the Update button. You should see following notification: Click OK. Next, close the PowerTradeCopier and start it up again. It will download the update, you should see following window during this process: Selected upgrade version will start up. If you wish you can also make a downgrade in the same way. 2. You must notify your subordinate client-users that work on your SlaveMachines to upgrade theirs PowerTradeCopier to the same version. 2.What PowerTradeCopier is designed for, program architecture and two types of users: MasterUser and Client/SlaveUsers. PowerTradeCopier program is designed to copy trade transactions from ones trading accounts to anothers. And what is more, trading accounts can reside on trade servers belonging to different brokers, but all these trade servers should support as a client MT4 terminal. Two characteristics distinguish PowerTradeCopier program from other programs that perform a similar function: 1. PowerTradeCopier works directly with trading servers, ie, MT4 terminal running is not mandatory. Such direct access to the trading servers provides a very fast and accurate copy of trade transactions. 2. The users that own a license on the PowerTradeCopier program has the opportunity not only to buy and copy the trading signals to their own trading accounts, but they can also use this program to sell and provide copying of their own trading signals to their own clients. Moreover, the architecture of the program is designed in such a way, that these clients can work independently on their own computers, using copies of this program. When describing the PowerTradeCopier functional features the terms are used that may be clear to all on an intuitive level, but still can cause different interpretation. For an unambiguous interpretation of these terms we give them a rigorous definitions. 2.1 Terminology. 1. Account (Acnt) - trading account, account, or Login in terminology of MT4 terminal. 2. TradePassWord (TPW) - Trade password in MT4 terminal terminology, this is the password that the MT4 terminal sends to trading server when the connection is established and on obtaining of which trade server allows all possible trade transactions on account for this MT4 terminal.

7 3. InvestPassWord (IPW) - Investor password in MT4 terminal terminology, this is the password that the MT4 terminal sends to trading server when the connection is established and on obtaining of which trade server prohibits all possible trades on account for this MT4 terminal, but provides this MT4 terminal by all the information necessary to display all transactions that are executed on this trading account. 4. MasterAccount (MAcnt) - trading account, account, or Login in terminology of MT4 terminal from which you are copying all trade transactions performed on it to the other trading account so-called. SlaveAccount. 5. SlaveAccount (SAcnt) - trading account, account, or Login in terminology of MT4 terminal, to which all trade transactions carried out on one or more MasterAccounts are copied. 6. MasterMachine/SlaveMachine. With single installation package, you can install the PowerTradeCopier on multiple computers, but the computer on which the very first installation was executed, acquires a special status - it is the main or MasterMachine. This fact is recorded on the developer's site by linking your license to the hardware configuration of your computer. Executing the same installation package on the second and subsequent computers, makes these computers linked and subordinate to the MasterMachine, and each of them became SlaveMachine and can perform only the task that is specified to him on MasterMachine. PowerTradeCopier program detects the type of the machine on which it is running, and for each type allows the user to perform only actions proper for this type. Thus, we have for the PowerTradeCopier two types of users: 1. A user that working on a MasterMachine, he is always single. 2. Users working on SlaveMachines, these users, in fact, are the clients of the user working on a MasterMachine and the range of possibilities for them are defined by the configuration specified for each of them on the MasterMachine. 7. MasterUser - the user that works with the PowerTradeCopier program on the MasterMachine. 8. Client/SlaveUser the user that works with the PowerTradeCopier program on the SlaveMachine. 9. CopyTask this is PowerTradeCopier processing unit. All CopyTasks are defined on MasterMachine by MasterUser. Each CopyTask consists of SlaveAccounts groop, MasterAccounts groop, CopyingScheme that specifies from which MasterAccounts to which SlaveAccounts trade transactions should be copied. Each SlaveCopyTask is uniquely identified by ClientPassWord. 10.ClientPassWord (CPW) - client password. ClientPassWord identifies a particular SlaveCopyTask. When a Client/SlaveUser starts the PowerTradeCopier on his own SlaveMachine, he enters his client password and thereby gets SlaveCopyTask specified for him on MasterMachine by MasterUser. Naturally, PowerTradeCopier enables Client/SlaveUser to adjust some SlaveCopyTask SlaveAccount's copy parameters, initially defined on MasterMachine. 2.2 Functional possibilities of the PowerTradeCopier program. PowerTradeCopier provides distributed data processing environment managed from one center - the MasterMachine. It is on the MasterMachine, PowerTradeCopier data processing units - MasterCopyTask and SlaveCopyTask are specified. MasterMachine at any time can block data processing on any node- SlaveMachine, or change the configuration of the SlaveCopyTask data processing on it. To be more clear here is such distributed data processing environment defined on MasterMachine:

8 MasterMachine Master CopyTask: Master CopyTask is executing... SlaveMachine entered with ClientPassWord = ClientPassWord-1 SlaveCopyTask-1 is executing... Slave CopyTask-1(ClientPassWord-1) Slave CopyTask-n (ClientPassWord-n) SlaveMachine entered with ClientPassWord = ClientPassWord-n SlaveCopyTask-n is executing... As you can see, both MasterCopyTask and SlaveCopyTasks are defined on MasterMachine, but MasterCopyTask is executed on MasterMachine, while each SlaveCopyTask is executed on separate SlaveMachine according to entered ClientPassWord. To make things more clear, let's consider example: MasterMachine Slave's accounts: Trade Server Login Trade Password Invest Password Client Password *************************************************************************************************************************** 1.Alpari-ECN-Demo 2.Alpari-ECN-Live 3.Aforex-Real 4.Akmos-Server abcd efgh Smith-password Smith-password 5.ATCBrokers-Server Endry-password 6.BankBB-Real Endry-password 7.BankBB-Real Endry-password Master's accounts: Trade Server Login Trade Password Invest Password Client Password *************************************************************************************************************************** 1.AFXG-Real passwordafxg 2.CNS-Live passwordcns

This connection has Peer-to-Peer type over the Internet, similar to how users communicate with each other via Skype. MasterMachine communication with their SlaveMachines is discussed in detailes in section 2.3 Some features of information exchange between Master- and Client/SlaveUsers, while here we note that Skype-like communication refers to the ability to send messages to the client even if the client is not in the network, logging into a network client receives all messages intended for him. This type of communication provides the necessary in practical life, a certain degree of autonomy in the work of MasterMachine and SlaveMachines. All text in bold terms has the meaning described in section 2.1 Terminology. MasterUser through a graphical interface provided by the PowerTradeCopier program defines:

10 1. MasterCopyTask: Slave's accounts: Trade Server Login Trade Password Invest Password Client Password ************************************************************************************************************************ 1.Alpari-ECN-Demo abcd 2.Alpari-ECN-Live efgh Master's accounts: ************************************************************************************************************************ Trade Server Login Trade Password Invest Password Client Password 1.AFXG-Real passwordafxg 2.CNS-Live passwordcns MasterUser introduces this information for the MasterAccounts available to him - the name of the trading server, account number on this server, investor password. MasterUser input information about master and slave accounts see arrows, as well as sets up the number of other parameters, which we'll talk later. After all this information is entered, PowerTradeCopier establishes a connection with these trading servers, monitors the MasterAccounts and copies all trading transactions from these accounts to the appropriate SlaveAccounts. Before going further, let us emphasize that, under the commercial agreement with the owners of MasterAccount 1 and MasterAccount 2, MasterUser is granted the right to not only copy all trading transactions from these accounts, but also have the right to resell all trading transactions from these accounts to his own clients. So, MasterUser found two commercial clients, clients named Smith and client named Endry and defined for them these SlaveCopyTasks according to their requests. 2. SlaveCopyTask for Smith: Slave's accounts: Trade Server Login Trade Password Invest Password Client Password ************************************************************************************************************************ 3.Aforex-Real Smith-password 4.Akmos-Server Smith-password Master's accounts: ************************************************************************************************************************ Trade Server Login Trade Password Invest Password Client Password 1.AFXG-Real passwordafxg Please note that MasterUser entered such information for Smith's SlaveAccounts - the names of the trading servers, SlaveAccounts numbers on these servers and ClientPassWord, in this case, ClientPassWord = Smith-password, trade passwords are not entered, as the MasterUser simply does not know these passwords. When the client starts up PowerTradeCopier, given to him by MasterUser, on his own computer and enters the ClientPassWord = Smith-password, PowerTradeCopier will display his SlaveCopyTask, defined for him on MasterMachin by MasterUser : all his SlaveAccounts, MasterAccounts and the links between them, and will give him the ability to adjust the number of copy parameters.

11 After the final adjusts of copy parameters is made, Client/SlaveUser can enter trade passwords for his SlaveAccounts, PowerTradeCopier running on his computer establishes a connections with all trading servers, monitors the MasterAccounts and copies all trading transactions from these MasterAccounts to the appropriate SlaveAccounts. Please note that the client Smith did not give to MasterUser trade passwords for his SlaveAccounts, so PowerTradeCopier, working on MasterMacine is not able to establishe a connections to the appropriate trading servers, it is only in Skype-mode provides information about the commercial client's SlaveCopyTask with a ClientPassWord = Smith-password. Skype-mode means that the Client/SlaveUser may not be active at the time this SlaveCopyTask information was sent to him. Client/SlaveUser can start working asynchronously with MasterUser at a convenient point in time and as soon as he enters ClientPassWord = Smith-password, he will immediately receive SlaveCopyTask information that was sent to him. 3. SlaveCopyTask for Endry: The reader has opportunity to manage with SlaveCopyTask for client by name Endry. So, let's consider in in detail the creation of distributed data processing environment on the MasterMachine PowerTradeCopier works on MasterMachine. PowerTradeCopier defines distributed data processing environment in terms of CopyTasks. One of these CopyTask may be defined for itself, in such a way MasterMachine is functionally similar to SlaveMachine. All rest CopyTasks are defined for SlaveMachines. CopyTask for MasterMachine we'll refer to as MasterCopyTask and CopyTasks for SlaveMachines we'll refer to as SlaveCopyTasks To define MasterCopyTask, PowerTradeCopier user interface provides tools for defining: 1. MasterAccounts by means of specifying trade server names, account numbers, invest passwords; 2. SlaveAccounts by means of specifying - trade server names, account numbers, trade passwords; 3. CopyingScheme that specifies from which MasterAccounts to which SlaveAccounts trade transactions should be copied; 4. CopyToSlave parameters, such as Slave's opening positions volume and so on. As long as the MasterCopyTask is defined, PowerTradeCopier begins MasterAccounts's monitoring and copies all trade transactions performed on them to SlaveAccounts according to the CopyingScheme and CopyToSlave parameters. To define SlaveCopyTasks, PowerTradeCopier user interface provides tools for defining: 1. MasterAccounts by means of specifying trade server names, account numbers, invest passwords; 2. SlaveAccounts by means of specifying - trade server names, account numbers, ClientPassWords; 3. Copying scheme that specifies from which MasterAccounts to which SlaveAccounts trade transactions should be copied. 4. CopyToSlave parameters, such as Slave's opening positions volume and so on. Hereinafter SlaveCopyTask's CopyToSlave parameters can be adjusted on SlaveMachine itself. SlaveCopyTasks for particular SlaveMachine includes only those SlaveAccounts that have the same ClientPassWord PowerTradeCopier works on SlaveMachine. When a Client/SlaveUser starts the PowerTradeCopier on his own SlaveMachine, he enters his ClientPassWords and thereby gets SlaveCopyTask specified for it on MasterMachine by MasterUser. PowerTradeCopier user interface on SlaveMachine provides tools for defining/adjusting some SlaveCopyTask parameters:

12 1. SlaveAccounts trade passwords; 2. CopyingScheme adjustment; 3. CopyToSlave parameters adjustment. As long as the SlaveCopyTask for SlaveMachine is adjusted, PowerTradeCopier running on this SlaveMachine begins MasterAccounts's monitoring and copies all trade transactions performed on them to SlaveAccounts CopyingScheme and CopyToSlave parameters. 2.3 Some features of information exchange between Master- and Client/SlaveUsers. 3. User interface Interface for MasterUser. So, now you should run PowerTradeCopier on MasterMachine and start your working with buttons in program's main and subordinate Windows MasterCopyTask definition. To define MasterCopyTask, PowerTradeCopier user interface provides tools for defining: 1. MasterAccounts by means of specifying trade server names, account numbers, invest passwords; 2. SlaveAccounts by means of specifying - trade server names, account numbers, trade passwords; 3. CopyingScheme that specifies from which MasterAccounts to which SlaveAccounts trade transactions should be copied; 4. CopyToSlave parameters, such as Slave's opening positions volume and so on. 1. To define MasterAccount for MasterCopyTask you should: - go to Master tab. - Press Add master button on the bottom and - select trade server for MasterAccount from servers dropdown list, - input account number in Login field and - input investor password in Invest passw field. - You can input some information about master account in Comment field or leave it empty. - You can delete master account by pressing Delete master button. - You can block master account by pressing Block button. You may add several MasterAccounts. 2. To define SlaveAccounts for MasterCopyTask you should: - go to Slaves tab. - Press Add slave button on the bottom and - select trade server for SlaveAccount from servers dropdown list, - input account number in Login field and - input trade password in Main passw field. - You can input some information about slave account in Comment field or leave it empty. - You can delete slave account by pressing Delete slave button. - You can block slave account by pressing Block button. You may add several SlaveAccounts.

13 Hear is the Window to make things more clear: It is possible, your sever is absent in server's list. If so, you should provide us with information about your server (format IP:port, or *.srv file from MT4 terminal /config/ folder) and we'll add your server immediately. Fill free to contact us for assistance. Hear is the video to make things about more clear: Hear are also some Windows to demonstrate how to monitor SlaveAccounts status.

14 - You can select SlaveAccount and view all active orders in Order >> Active tab:

15 - You can select SlaveAccount and view orders history in Order >> History tab:

16 - You can select SlaveAccount and view quotes in Pairs tab:

17 - You can select SlaveAccount and view logs in Logs tab: 3. To define CopyingScheme for MasterCopyTask you should: - Select Param Copy tab, you will see SlaveAccounts that are located along vertical column and MasterAccounts that are located along horizontal rows. - for each SlaveAccount to which you want to copy trading transactions check MasterAccounts from which you want to copy trading transactions. Here is this Window to help you: 4. How to define MasterCopyTask CopyToSlave parameters, such as Slave's opening positions volume

18 and so on that is performed on MasterMachine itself, is described in 3.3. How to adjust the MasterCopyTask and SlaveCopyTask SlaveAccount's copy parameters. the section that is common for section Interface for MasterUser and for section 3.2. Interface for Client/SlaveUser. As long as the MasterCopyTask is defined, PowerTradeCopier begins MasterAccounts's monitoring and copies all trade transactions performed on them to SlaveAccounts according to the CopyingScheme and CopyToSlave parameters. For a complete understanding of the whole process of work do not forget to study the section 3.4. Synchronization of SlaveAccount with MasterAccounts SlaveCopyTask definition. To define SlaveCopyTasks, PowerTradeCopier user interface provides tools for defining: 1. MasterAccounts by means of specifying trade server names, account numbers, invest passwords; 2. SlaveAccounts by means of specifying - trade server names, account numbers, ClientPassWords; 3. CopyingScheme that specifies from which MasterAccounts to which SlaveAccounts trade transactions should be copied. 4. CopyToSlave parameters, such as Slave's opening positions volume and so on. Hereinafter SlaveCopyTask's CopyToSlave parameters can be adjusted on SlaveMachine itself. SlaveCopyTasks for particular SlaveMachine includes only those SlaveAccounts that have the same ClientPassWord. 1. To define MasterAccount for SlaveCopyTask you should: (The procedure, in fact, the same as for defining MasterAccount for MasterCopyTask.) - go to Master tab. - Press Add master button on the bottom and - select trade server for MasterAccount from servers dropdown list, - input account number in Login field and - input investor password in Invest passw field. - You can input some information about master account in Comment field or leave it empty. - You can delete master account by pressing Delete master button. - You can block master account by pressing Block button. You may add several MasterAccounts. 2. To define SlaveAccounts for SlaveCopyTask you should: - go to Slaves tab. - Press Add slave button on the bottom and, - select trade server for SlaveAccount from servers dropdown list, - input account number in Login field, - trade password in Main passw field must be unfilled! - select Set password for client tab in Slaves tab-window, - input ClientPassWord in Input password field. - You can input some information about slave account in Comment field or leave it empty. - You can delete slave account by pressing Delete slave button. - You can block slave account by pressing Block button. You may add several SlaveAccounts. 3. To define CopyingScheme for SlaveCopyTask you should: (The procedure, in fact, the same as for defining CopyingScheme for MasterCopyTask.) - Select Param Copy tab, you will see SlaveAccounts that are located along vertical column and MasterAccounts that are located along horizontal rows. - for each SlaveAccount to which you want to copy trading transactions check MasterAccounts from which you want to copy trading transactions.

19 Here is this Window to help you: 4. How to define SlaveCopyTask's CopyToSlave parameters, such as Slave's opening positions volume and so on that is performed on MasterMachine itself, is described in 3.3. How to adjust the MasterCopyTask and SlaveCopyTask SlaveAccount's copy parameters. the section that is common for section Interface for MasterUser and for section 3.2. Interface for Client/SlaveUser. Hereinafter SlaveCopyTask's CopyToSlave parameters can be adjusted on SlaveMachine itself Interface for Client/SlaveUser. So, now you should run PowerTradeCopier on SlaveMachine and start your working with buttons in program's main and subordinate Windows How to get SlaveCopyTask defined on MasterMachine to SlaveMachine. SlaveCopyTask for SlaveMachine is defined on MasterMachine and uniquely identified by ClientPassWord. Here are parameters we have for SlaveCopyTask that were defined on MasterMachine: 1. MasterAccounts by means of specifying trade server names, account numbers, invest passwords; 2. SlaveAccounts by means of specifying - trade server names, account numbers, ClientPassWords; 3. CopyingScheme that specifies from which MasterAccounts to which SlaveAccounts trade transactions should be copied. 4. CopyToSlave parameters, such as Slave's opening positions volume and so on. Hereinafter, when we get SlaveCopyTask to SlaveMachine, CopyingScheme and CopyToSlave parameters can be adjusted on SlaveMachine itself. To get SlaveCopyTask to your's SlaveMachine you should: - Click Settings Tab, - Click Set password Tab in Settings-Window, - input your's ClientPassWords in Input password-window. Here is this Window's sequence:

20 input your's ClientPassWord here... Now, at this point, we have all SlaveCopyTask parameters that were defined on MasterMachine: 1. MasterAccounts by means of specifying trade server names, account numbers, invest passwords; 2. SlaveAccounts by means of specifying - trade server names, account numbers, ClientPassWords; 3. CopyingScheme that specifies from which MasterAccounts to which SlaveAccounts trade transactions should be copied. 4. CopyToSlave parameters, such as Slave's opening positions volume and so on. You can see this for yourself if you run through clicks on the buttons: - Copier, - Master, - Slaves, - Param copy, - Param master - and others. But pay attention, when you Click, for example, Slaves Tab, you can see for all SlaveAccounts under Main password definition header not trade password, but Empty - word to emphasize that trade password is not entered yet. You can enter trade password for each SlaveAccount immediately, if CopyingScheme that specifies from which MasterAccounts to which SlaveAccounts trade transactions should be copied and CopyToSlave parameters, such as Slave's opening positions volume and so on, that all were defined on MasterMachine are exactly what you want to deal with. If you want to adjust CopyingScheme, CopyToSlave parameters, or both, you can do as it is described in 3.3. How to adjust the MasterCopyTask and SlaveCopyTask SlaveAccount's copy parameters. the section that is common for section Interface for MasterUser and for section 3.2. Interface for Client/SlaveUser. When you are satisfied with the CopyingScheme and CopyToSlave parameters values, it is time to enter trade password for each SlaveAccount: - double Cllick on SlaveAccount row in Slaves Tab Window and - input trade password in Main password field. After trade password for each SlaveAccounts is added, you can press the Copier tab and observe that the status of each SlaveAccount is working. If it is not, check that the server name, SlaveAccounts number and trade password are correct.

21 Here is the Window to help you: As long as the correct trade passwords are entered, PowerTradeCopier running on this SlaveMachine begins MasterAccounts's monitoring and copies all trade transactions performed on them to SlaveAccounts according to CopyingScheme and CopyToSlave parameters. For a complete understanding of the whole process of work do not forget to study the section 3.4. Synchronization of SlaveAccount with MasterAccounts. You can monitor the process on this SlaveMachine in the same way as for MasterMachine. You can also Block/Unblock copy trade transactions process for your's SlaveAccounts: - Click Block tab in Slaves Tab Window, this allows you to turn off (or Block) a SlaveAccount without deleting the information, if you want to use it at another time you won t have to reenter the information for that broker. Here is the Window to help you:

22 - Click UnBlock tab in Slaves Tab Window, this allows you to turn on (or UnBlock) a SlaveAccount. Here is the Window to help you: How to adjust SlaveCopyTask CopyingScheme and CopyToSlave parameters. This procedure is the same as to adjust SlaveCopyTasks slave's account copy parameters on SlaveMachine itself and is described in 3.3. How to adjust the MasterCopyTask and SlaveCopyTask SlaveAccount's copy parameters the section that is common for section Interface for MasterUser and for section 3.2. Interface for Client/SlaveUser. MasterCopyTask and SlaveCopyTask SlaveAccount's copy parameters adjustment use the same procedure and interface. PowerTradeCopier permits adjusting such SlaveAccount's copy parameters: 1. CopyingScheme that specifies from which MasterAccounts to which SlaveAccounts trade transactions should be copied. 2. MasterAccounts' Symbols that specifies for which MasterAccounts symbols trading transactions to be copied to SlaveAccounts. 3. CopyToSlave parameters such as Slave's opening positions volume and so on. Let's start in order given above. 1. CopyingScheme that specifies from which MasterAccounts to which SlaveAccounts trade transactions should be copied. To adjust CopyingScheme you should: - Select Param Copy tab, you will see SlaveAccounts that are located along vertical column and MasterAccounts that are located along horizontal rows. - for each SlaveAccount to which you want to copy trading transactions check MasterAccounts from which you want to copy trading transactions.

23 Here is this Window to help you: 2. MasterAccounts' Symbols that specifies for which MasterAccounts symbols trading transactions to be copied to SlaveAccounts. To adjust MasterAccounts' Symbols you should: - Select Master s Currency Pairs tab, you will see currency pairs(symbols) (if the master is working) - check each Symbols, from which you want to copy trading transactions. - Press the Save button. Here is this Window to help you: 3. CopyToSlave parameters such as Slave's opening positions volume and so on. There are many CopyToSlave parameters. To adjust each of them you should follow the procedures below. To get an idea, here is the video: - Click Param Master tab. Select master-slave pair for which you want to set CopyToSlave parameters. This master-slave pair will be highlighted with red.

24 Here is this Window to help you: Compliance is the first CopyToSlave parameter for selected master-slave pair. If your broker have standard quotes symbols (for example: eurusd, gbpusd, etc.), you can skip this point. If your broker have non standard symbols (symbols with prefix or suffix), you should enter prefix or suffix in the appropriate field. Example: Broker Forex.com UK Quotes symbols with suffix FXF:

25 We should enter suffix FXF in End field. You can set suffix or(and) prefix for master or(and) slave account manually, or set Full Auto mode. Transformation (Scaling) is the next CopyToSlave parameter for selected master-slave pair. Here is this Window to help you: Lot section specifies the way of lot calculation on slave side. You can use 5 type of lot calculation: Ratio(MS), Fixed, Balance(1), RiskPcntEquity, Balance (2). Let's consider each of them. - Ratio(MS). Slave lot calculated as master lot multiplied by MS.LotRatio. SlaveLotSize = MasterLotSize * Ratio(MS) Sample: 1) MasterLot = 0.1, MS.LotRatio = 1.0 => SlaveLot = 0.1*1.0 = 0.1 2) MasterLot = 1.0, MS.LotRatio = 2.0 => SlaveLot = 1.0*2.0 = 2.0 3) MasterLot = 6.0, MS.LotRatio = 0.5 => SlaveLot = 6.0*0.5 = Fixed. Slave lot is equal to "Fixed" SlaveLotSize = Fixed Sample: 1) MasterLot = 0.1, Fixed = 1.0 => SlaveLot = 1.0 2) MasterLot = 1.0, Fixed = 1.0 => SlaveLot = 1.0 3) MasterLot = 6.0, Fixed = 0.1 => SlaveLot = 0.1

26 - Balance(1). Balance allows you to control percent of the capital, which you are ready to risk for each slave account. Slave lot size calculated as SlaveLotAccountBalance/SlaveBasis * BalancePercent SlaveLotSize slave lot size SlaveLotAccountBalance balance on slave account Slave Basis- depends from leverage and account type (standard, mini, micro etc.) BalancePercent percent of the capital (balance), which you are ready to risk for each slave Lot Size Leverage 1:400 1:200 1:100 1:50 1:20 1: (standard) ,000 2,000 5,000 10, (mini) (micro) (nano) Sample: 1) BP.BalanceBasis = , BP.BalancePcnt = 10.0, current AccountBalance = Lot = / * 10.0/100 = 1.2 2) BP.BalanceBasis = 500.0, BP.BalancePcnt = 5.0, current AccountBalance = Lot = /500.0 * 5.0/100 = RiskPcntEquity. This mode allows you to risk the same percent of capital both on slave and master terminals. Lot calculation is available in two scenarios in this mode: 1. Scenario:SlaveLotSize = RiskPcntEquity / ( (MasterOpenPricePips MasterStopLossPips) / Basis) 2. Scenario:SlaveBalance * MasterLotSize / MasterBalance * Ratio In this mode it is necessary to check if SL and TP were placed. And select one of specified scenarios. There are four possible options: 1) MasterStopLoss and MasterTakeProfit are not placed (Scenario 2) 2) MasterStopLoss is plased, and MasterTakeProfit is not placed (Scenario 1, because Take Profit can be placed later and doesn t affect lot size or risk) 3) MasterStopLoss is not placed?nd MasterTakeProfit is placed (Scenario 2, because Take Profit doesn t affect lot size or risk) 4) MasterStopLoss and MasterTakeProfit are placed (Scenario 1) Scenario 1 Example: Master order price ; StopLoss 1.555; RiskPcntEquity = MasterOpenPrice: MasterStopLoss: RiskPcntEquity = SlaveLotSize = RiskPcntEquity / (MasterOpenPricePips MasterStopLossPips) = / ( ) = / 1202 = = aprox Slave Lot size will be 0.01 Scenario 2 Example: Order was opened on master, size = 8 lots without Stop Loss.

Here is this Window to help you:

28 MinLot and MaxLot - You can set minimal and maximal size of lot calculated on slave account. LotDigits - The allowable number of decimal places in Lot. You can set copying mode for StopLoss and TakeProfit "A": absolute mode. StopLoss and TakeProfit values will be copied from master side as is. "P": pips mode. StopLoss and TakeProfit values will be adjusted. (1) absolute values transformed to pips, (2) pips applied to calculate new sl and tp on slave side. Sample: StopLossCopyMode = TakeProfitCopyMode = "A" Let we have Master Buy order with open price = , sl = , tp = Let the open price on Slave terminal is StopLoss and TakeProfit will be copied as is because copy mode ="A". Master Buy => Slave Buy open price => stop loss => take profit => Sample: StopLossCopyMode = TakeProfitCopyMode = "P" Let we have Master Buy order with open price = , sl = , tp = Let the open price on Slave terminal is StopLoss and TakeProfit values will be transformed because copy mode ="P". Master Buy => Slave Buy open price => stop loss => ( pips) take profit => ( pips) You can overwrite copying size of stopploss or(and) takeprofit. Also, you can delete or overwrite comments or write new comments. There are two important parameters that may be set up on this tab : RepeatCount - number of repeats for order copying. Slippage - difference between the price a trader expects to be filled at, and the price they are actually filled at. Slippage is the MT4 terminal terminology term. For example if a trader sends a market order in to fill at but is only filled at the order was slipped half a point. Such slippage leads to a higher than expected transaction costs. Slippage in equities and futures usually leads traders to use special orders to be more certain of expected costs.

29 Filter is the next CopyToSlave parameter for selected master-slave pair. Here is this Window to help you: Filter Checks minimal and maximal price difference between open price on master side and market price on slave side. CheckMinMaxPriceDiff parameters define Buy zone for Buy orders and Sell zone for Sell orders in units of pips. So this feature makes it possible to open an order at better price. Sample 1: Master Buy => Slave Buy CheckMinMaxPriceDiff StopLoss side = 50 pips open price => ( pips) Sample 2: Master Buy => Slave Buy CheckMinMaxPriceDiff TakeProfit side = 50 pips open price => ( pips) And vice versa for SELL Sample 3: Master Sell => Slave Sell CheckMinMaxPriceDiff StopLoss side = 50 pips open price => ( pips)

31 Correct SL and Correct_TP settings in "Expanded" tab allow to set minimal (maximal) possible SL (TP) on slave in case when source SL (TP) on master side is out of acceptable bounds for slave side. Reverse- will help traders make loss strategies profitable. Long orders copied as short orders and vice versa. Hidden- Stop Loss and Take Profit will be hidden from broker. Order will copyed without StopLoss and TakeProfit. The values of StopLoss and TakeProfit profit stored in the memory. When level of order is executed, order will be opened as market order. Spread_Control- StopLoss and(or) TakeProfit will be postponed (on difference between new spread and old spread) if the broker will expand the spread Copy Orders- check types of orders which should be copied Copying Parameters >> Expanded (Advanced Options) NEW Correct price feature. Correct price feature allows to correct prices for pending orders automatically in case when when software places (copies) the pending order which price is too close to the broker's market price at the moment and broker forbids to set this price (otherwise if the Correct pric is not set, error "Error/CREATE/SL or TP invalid value Price" will happen). Copy with slave price feature. Copy with slave price feature allows copying the order to slave at slave's price no matter how far it is from master's price (slippage will be ignored). Example: EURUSD BUY order was opened on master account at price : Type: BUY Symbol: EURUSD OpenPrice: The slave account is on another broker and the current price on slave is which differs from master price. If "Copy with slave price" is checked, following order will be opened on slave: Type: BUY Symbol: EURUSD OpenPrice: Copy close feature Copy close feature is for transferring close signal from master. This means that if it is checked, when master order closes, PowerTradeCopier will transfer close signal to slave account otherwise it will not. Example: EURUSD BUY order was opened on master account at price at 00:58:41 and closed manually at 01:12:14 at price OpenTime: :58:41 Type: BUY Symbol: EURUSD OpenPrice: StopLoss: TakeProfit: CloseTime: :12:14 ClosePrice: Comment: test If the "Copy close" is unchecked then slave would not accept the closing signal at 01:12:14 and order will remain active on slave untill it will be closed manually or by reaching StopLoss or TakeProfit: OpenTime: :58:41 Type: BUY Symbol: EURUSD OpenPrice: StopLoss:

If the performance of the synchronization process is appropriate, and where it may even harm? 3. Synchronization facilities of the program. 4. The user interface to manage the synchronization process. 1. What is synchronization? So, you started PowerTradeCopier on your computer - MasterMacine, or SlaveMachine. PowerTradeCopier according to the instructions given to it in CopyTask will start MasterAccounts monitoring and copy all trading transactions that are executed on them to needed SlaveAccounts. However, it may happen that at the time of program start up, MasterAccounts already have opened positions. How to deal with these positions - these positions can either be ignored, or copied to the appropriate SlaveAccounts, so that at SlaveAccounts positions were opened corresponding to the opened positions on related MasterAccounts. This copy process of already existing positions on MasterAccounts to SlaveAccounts is refered to as synchronization process. Synchronization is performed according to the following algorithm. - Program tries to open missing orders on SlaveAccounts (which are opened on MasterAccounts). - Program tries to close orders that were closed on MasterAccounts but remain on SlaveAccounts. - Program does not close orders on SlaveAccounts that were opened not by PowerTradeCopier software. - Program changes nothing in orders that were already transferred to SlaveAccounts and remain opened on MasterAccounts. 2. If the performance of the synchronization process is appropriate, and where it may even harm? The answer to this question is determined by the logic of trading strategies that run on MasterAccounts. If a trading strategy is a long-term and each of the position opened independently of the other positions, the synchronization process execution may be appropriate. Conversely, if the set of positions in total implement complex trading strategies, that is, each subsequent position is associated with earlier (for example, scalping, or martingale), the execution of synchronization can hurt you. Thus, the responsibility for the decision to perform or not to to perform synchronization process falls entirely on the SlaveAccounts owner. 3. Synchronization facilities of the program. PowerTradeCopier provides such facilities for synchronization process: - for each program's start up for all SlaveAccounts present in CopyTask;

33 - for program's execution time for all SlaveAccounts present in CopyTask, in cases where on those or other reasons some positions on SlaveAccounts was not opened, - for program's execution time for particular SlaveAccount present in CopyTask. 4. The user interface to manage the synchronization process. At first we consider user interface to manage synchronization process for each program's start up for all SlaveAccounts present in CopyTask. For synchronization process to be unconditionally executed for all SlaveAccounts present in CopyTask for each program's start up you may specify a special parameter on the command line SYNH - PreloadCopyMT.exe SYNH. In this case, the user can control the synchronization process for all SlaveAccounts present in CopyTask also for program's execution time as if the program starts up without command line parameter. For synchronization process to be unconditionally not executed for all SlaveAccounts present in CopyTask for each program's start up you may specify a special parameter on the command line NOSYNH - PreloadCopyMT.exe NOSYNH. In this case for program's execution time synchronization process for all SlaveAccounts present in CopyTask also will not be performed. If the program starts up without any parameters, the synchronization process for such program's start up is managed by means of the user interface: If Inquiry about synchronization checkbox is Checked, then program will ask the user whether or not to execute synchronization process at program's start up.

34 If Inquiry about synchronization checkbox is UnChecked, then program anyway will execute synchronization process at program's start up, but will not inform the user in any way. Next we consider user interface to manage synchronization process for program's execution time for all SlaveAccounts present in CopyTask. The synchronization process in this case also is managed by means of the same user interface. If Inquiry about synchronization checkbox is Checked, then in the process of the program's execution time program through the a user-defined period of time, initially equal to one hour, will ask the user whether or not to execute synchronization process. The query also allows the user to to change the period of issue of such a request to perform synchronization, which is initially set to one hour. If Inquiry about synchronization checkbox is UnChecked, then program anyway through the a userdefined period of time, initially equal to one hour, will execute synchronization process in the process of the program's execution time, but will not inform the user in any way. Next and last we consider user interface to manage synchronization process for program's execution time for particular SlaveAccounts in CopyTask. In this case synchronization process is managed in manual mode. You should right-click the particular SlaveAccounts in the Copier tab Window, it will enable pop-up menu that allows to synchronize orders for this particular SlaveAccount. 4. Conclusion. Undoubtedly, not all aspects of the program was reflected in this document. We believed that some of the details of the program's work should be self-explanatory. However, if the user has any questions, we are always happy to answer them. Do not hesitate to ask any questions. In addition, our program, like any sufficiently complex program has it's own bugs, which we hope to eliminate with your help, our dear users. Let God help you and bless you, our dear users.
