Subscription fee

The block allows you to set the subscription type and conditions which will be applied to subscribers of the public account.

Profit sharing

The Broker subscription fee percent which will be payed to broker is displayed at the top of the block.

For the subscription type Profit sharing the following parameters are specified:

• Profitsharing percentage that will be charged to the subscriber when receiving profit from copying.
• Profitsharing mode - frequency of profit transfer or profit from the position should be specified.

Please note!

- For this subscription type, the percentage is charged to the subscriber only if the closed positions have a positive P/L at the end of the specified period.

- If the Position mode is set, the P/L will be charged for each closed position at the moment of its closing.

Calculation of Fair Commission for Profit Sharing (HWM Principle)

Commission for the Profit Sharing subscription type is calculated using the High Watermark (HWM) principle - the platform tracks the accumulated result and does not charge double commission on the same profit.

Calculation Formula

When charging commission (end of period, position closure, unsubscribe), the following formulas are used:

Fair Commission = (Total P/L + Paid Commission) × C

If Fair Commission is greater than Paid Commission, then:

• Current Commission is calculated as the difference between Fair and Paid commissions;
• A transaction is executed to debit the Current Commission;
• The Paid Commission indicator is updated:
  • Paid Commission (new) = Paid Commission - Current Commission

where:

• Total P/L - total P/L on the account from the start of the subscription;
• Paid Commission - already charged profit sharing commission (sum of previously executed transactions);
• C - commission percentage (Profit Distribution Percentage);
• Current Commission - commission amount to be charged at the current moment.

Fixed

The Broker subscription fee percent which will be payed to broker is displayed at the top of the block.

In case of Fixed fee, you need to set the parameters:

• Commission - fixed commission amount in the selected currency.
• Period - commission collection period.

Commission accrual frequency

Fixed commissions are accrued according to the period set in the public account settings. The period is calculated without taking into account weekends in the Daily operations section. The start date (X) of the period is the subscription start date. The end date is X-1 of the next period. If the end date falls on a non-existent day (e.g., June 31), it is calculated from the last existing day of the month.

Commission accrual date calculation examples: Subscription date (X): May 31 Commission charge frequency: Monthly Commission accrual date (X-1): June 29

Subscription Date (X): May 12 Commission Charge Frequency: Weekly Commission Accrual Date (X-1): May 18

Commissions of the Profit sharing type can be written off immediately upon receiving a positive PL for a position.

In the Overridded account group field, you can set an account group whose settings will be applied to the trading account when it is subscribed to a public account.

Please note! If an Overridded account group is set for a public account, subscribers will not be able to unsubscribe from it while maintaining their positions.

Important! After unsubscribing from a public account, the account group settings that were specified for the trading account before subscribing will be automatically applied to it. If the trading account was not assigned to an account group before subscribing, or if the account group has been deleted, the group specified in the Broker Settings section, in the Client open account groups field, will be applied to it. If such an account group is not specified in the broker settings, the client will not be able to subscribe to a public account with the Overridded account group enabled.
