Signal marketplace
The marketplace lets you follow the trades of another trader (a seller), or publish your own master account as a signal channel for others to follow. Following creates an ordinary copy link, so everything in Copy settings and Risk and protection still applies to you.
Paid subscriptions are not available yet. Channels are free to follow for now, and nothing in the marketplace is financial advice. Read the Risk Disclaimer.
Following a channel
Open Signal marketplace in the app. Each card shows the channel, who runs it (by @handle), its platform, followers and its track record. Open a card for the seller's strategy, statistics by period, results by instrument, recent trades and reviews.
- Follow policy: the seller chooses between open (you are accepted at once), on approval, or invite-only.
- Conditions: a channel can require a minimum account balance and cap the number of followers.
- Demo follow: you can follow with a demo account first, to see how the channel behaves before using real money.
- Reviews: only followers whose copy actually started can rate a channel. Each review shows how long its author had been following.
- Search and filters: search by channel, seller or instrument, and filter by platform, instrument, maximum drawdown, length of history, account type, price and seller language. The heart keeps a channel in your favourites (filter Favourites); you also receive its seller's announcements.
- Ranking: the default order is return / risk (return divided by maximum drawdown over the whole record). A channel is ranked once it has 30 days and 20 trades of history; before that it is listed under New channels, below the ranked ones.
- Featured and collections: at the top of Discover, a Featured band shows the channels a moderator puts forward. Collections (Real accounts, Drawdown under 10 %, Gold specialists, Scalping, Intraday, Swing, Most followed, New talent) filter the list in one click; a collection appears only when channels match it. The style comes from the median time a channel keeps its trades open (scalping: under 30 minutes; intraday: under a day; swing: longer), and each card shows the return curve of the last 90 days.
- Find your channel: three questions (the drawdown you accept, the markets you want, your pace) and optionally your capital give each channel a compatibility score from 0 to 100, computed from its verified figures: risk counts most, then markets, pace and the length of the record. A channel whose minimum balance is above your capital is marked as such. Your answers stay in your browser; the score is a sorting aid, not advice.
- Compare: tick Compare on up to three cards, then open the comparison: their return curves on one chart and their figures side by side (return, drawdown, win rate, trades, record, account type, stops, exposure, style, markets, followers, rating, minimum balance), the best value of each row in green.
- Badges: Real account or Demo account (for MT4/MT5, as the terminal itself reports it: the badge appears once the seller runs the current EA version), Record: N months, Always a stop loss (90 % of trades or more carry one), New / Ranked.
- Performance: a channel shows its cumulative return curve and a table of monthly returns, computed from the closed trades of its account, in percent. If the balance reported for the account is not consistent with its results, no curve is drawn.
- Simulator: Simulate with my capital replays the channel's closed trades on your capital, either risking a fixed % per trade (from each trade's stop loss; trades without a usable stop are skipped and counted) or proportionally to your capital. It is an estimate: no spreads, commissions or slippage.
- My portfolio: the My portfolio tab shows every channel you copy together: copies running and paused, the result of your copies on real accounts (demo apart), their open positions, the average share of signals received, one cumulative result curve, and an activity feed (trades copied and closed, pauses, announcements from the sellers you copy). Each copy has its own card: your result in money and in %, the channel's result over the same period, the signals received and the median delay, and where it stands against its drawdown breaker (a warning appears past 70 %). From the card you pause, resume or stop the copy. The weekly email (Sunday, opt-in, switch at the bottom of the tab) now lists what each copied channel brought in over the week.
- My copy: on each card of My portfolio, My copy compares what reached your account with the channel since your copy started: the share of signals actually filled on your account, the median delay, your result and the channel's over the same period. Signals on pairs you excluded, or sent while your copy was paused, are not counted. Your own risk settings (protection rules, news filter, maximum positions) can also hold signals back.
What is verified and what is not
- Verified by HydraSync: the statistics of a channel (return, win rate, drawdown, trades) are computed from the real trades of the account, in percentages. They carry a verified mark.
- Signal sources such as Telegram channels have no account behind them, so their statistics cannot be verified; the card says so and shows signal counts instead.
- Self-declared by the seller: everything on a seller profile (bio, experience, languages, links, risk statement) is written by the seller and shown as self-declared. A short sample of trades makes a headline number weak; look at the number of trades and how long the record is.
The seller profile
Every seller has a public profile at /s/@handle, visible without an account. It shows who is behind the channels, all their public channels side by side, the total number of followers, their announcements and a risk statement: how much they risk per trade, how long positions last, and what they do in a drawdown. Read the risk statement before you subscribe.
Becoming a seller
A seller profile is required to publish a channel.
- Open the Creator hub (Creator hub in the sidebar), go to Storefront & socials and fill in your profile: handle, display name, headline, risk statement (required), and optionally a bio, languages, country, style, years of experience and up to five links (https only). Everything you write is public once approved.
- A moderator reviews the profile. Until it is approved you can create channels but not publish them. You are notified of the decision.
- Click the New channel card, pick one of your master accounts, accept the risk disclaimer, then publish the channel from its card.
Review and changes
- New profiles are reviewed before they are shown publicly.
- Changing your handle, display name, headline, bio, links or risk statement sends the profile back to review, and the public page is hidden until it is approved again.
- Changing languages, country, style, experience or the pinned message does not.
- If a profile is refused, your channels are unlisted and you are told why. Fix the profile and save it to submit it again.
- Handles that could pass for the platform or its staff (for example
admin or support) are reserved.
Announcements and reports
- Announcements are short dated updates ("paused around NFP"). They appear on your public page, up to five per day, and are sent as a notification to everyone copying one of your channels or keeping it in their favourites (in-app and Telegram, according to their notification settings). They are not reviewed in advance.
- Reports: anyone logged in can report a seller for impersonation, misleading claims, spam or another reason. Moderators see reports and can refuse a profile, which unlists its channels.
Managing your channel and your followers
The Creator hub (Creator hub in the sidebar, or the button on the Signal marketplace page) is your own space inside HydraSync, with its own menu: Overview (your profile as buyers see it, active followers, pending requests, page views, conversion, the follower curve, what your profile is still missing and recent activity), My channels (your channels as cards, each with its status, statistics and a Publish or Unpublish button; the pending-requests badge opens the Followers tab directly), Followers, Posts, Storefront & socials and Statistics. Click a channel card (or Manage) to open a page with three tabs:
- Overview: your channel exactly as a follower sees it, with its statistics, results by instrument, recent trades and reviews.
- Followers: who follows you. Requests wait for your approval when the follow policy is on approval; you can approve or refuse them. Current followers can be removed: the copy link is deleted, nothing more is copied to them, and they are notified. They can ask to follow again, unless you block them. You see each follower's username and how they follow (copy mode, demo or not), never their accounts, balances or email.
- Settings: name, description, tags, who can follow, maximum followers, minimum balance, and whether followers may chain your signal onward. You can also unpublish or delete the channel here.
- Follower health: each current follower shows the share of your signals actually filled on their account and their last copy, so you can see who is not receiving the channel. You never see their accounts, balances or results.
- Remove and block: when you remove a follower (or refuse a request) you can also block them: they cannot ask to follow that channel again until you unblock them from the list of blocked users.
The Creator hub also has:
- Followers: everyone who follows any of your channels in one list, filtered by active, pending, paused or ended, by channel or by name, with each follower's execution rate. Pending requests can be accepted or refused right there; removing and blocking stay on the channel's page.
- Posts: your pinned message and announcements, and cards ready to share: a profile card, a card for each closed trade of the last 120 days and a weekly recap, for your public channels. Each card is an image (a trade's result in R when it had a stop loss, otherwise in % of the account; a week's return in % of the balance at the start of the week) with buttons for X, Telegram, Facebook and WhatsApp, or a link to copy. Every card carries the mention information sharing, not a financial promotion or investment advice and the usual risk warning. Nothing is posted for you: the buttons open the network with the card ready.
- Storefront & socials: your seller profile and links, and the accent colour used on your public page and share cards (changing it does not send the profile back to review). Uploading a profile photo and a banner is coming soon; until then your initials are shown in your colour.
- Statistics: the conversion funnel (page views, Copy clicks, requests, new followers), where visits come from (X, Telegram, Facebook, WhatsApp, Discord, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, search engines, other websites or direct), follower retention (average time followed, followers for 30 and 90 days or more, departures), and your storefront statistics day by day over 7, 30 or 90 days. One view per visitor per day; your own visits are not counted.
- Badge & embed: from Posts, a link that shows a preview card with your featured channel's figures when pasted on Telegram, X, Discord or WhatsApp, and a badge with HTML code for your own website. Percentages only.
- Profile completeness: what buyers would still like to know (presentation, languages, style, links…).
A seller's page (by @handle on any card) lists all their channels; open one to see its full detail.
Suspension
A moderator can suspend a channel, for example when its record looks misleading. A suspended channel is unlisted and cannot be published again by its owner until a moderator reinstates it (it then returns as a draft). The owner is told why. Existing followers keep the copy link they already have; new followers cannot join while the channel is suspended.
Privacy
The public page, share cards and badges never show your email, your account numbers, balances or amounts of money. Channel statistics are percentages only. Storefront statistics count visits with a daily anonymous key: no IP address or visitor identity is stored. Where a visit came from is read from the share link or the referring website, and only the name of the network or kind of site is kept.
