Perp prop firm copy trading rules: what each firm allows

Futures prop firms have mostly settled their positions on trade copiers. Crypto perp prop firms haven't. Some encourage copying between your own accounts, some forbid any mirroring, and some don't say. Before you point a copier at a perp evaluation, here's what the firms we looked at publish. We read each firm's own rules or FAQ on 29 September 2026. They change often, so treat this as a starting point and check the current wording yourself.

The short version

• Propr: copy trading permitted, including between your own Propr accounts.
• MyFundedPerps: built-in copy trading between accounts on your own login. Coordinating with other people isn't allowed.
• Crypto Fund Trader: copying only between your own Break accounts during the evaluation phase.
• Breakout: copy trading across users and cross-account hedging prohibited. Copying between your own accounts isn't addressed in that article.
• HyroTrader: copy-trading services and account mirroring not allowed.

Propr

Propr runs evaluations on Hyperliquid perps, including the stock, index and commodity markets listed there. Its rulebook states that copy trading is permitted, including between your own Propr accounts, and it publishes a trading API with Python and JavaScript SDKs. That makes it one of the clearer targets for mirroring. The usual limits still apply: daily loss, maximum drawdown and leverage are per account, so size each follower to its own rules.

MyFundedPerps

MyFundedPerps (myfundedperpetuals.com) runs challenges on its own simulated platform, priced from Hyperliquid, Binance, Bybit and Lighter. Its FAQ describes built-in copy trading between eligible accounts under your own login. It says automated trading must use its documented API rather than the website's internal endpoints, and that coordinated trading with other people is prohibited. Source: myfundedperpetuals.com/faq.

Crypto Fund Trader

Crypto Fund Trader connects either your own Bybit account by API (USDT perps) or Match-Trader and MT5 accounts. Its FAQ allows copying only between your own Break accounts during the evaluation phase, not in the final stage or on Ascend accounts. The API key linked to your evaluation has to stay active and unchanged, so don't rotate it for a copier. Source: cryptofundtrader.com/faq.

Breakout

Breakout, owned by Kraken, runs its own simulated platform. Its help centre prohibits copy trading across different users and hedging across accounts. It doesn't address copying between accounts you own in that article, and we couldn't find a documented public trading API, so there's no clean integration path today. Ask Breakout support in writing before copying anything. Source: Breakout help centre.

HyroTrader

HyroTrader uses Bybit demo accounts connected by API. It allows your own bots, but its FAQ says copy-trading services, account mirroring and external signal providers aren't permitted. Don't use a copier there. Source: HyroTrader FAQ.

Rules that bite even when copying is allowed

1. Hedging across accounts. Almost every firm bans being long on one account and short on another. A copier with an inverted follower does exactly that.
2. Consistency and minimum-day rules. Identical trades on several accounts pass or fail together. See consistency rules and copying.
3. Other people's signals. Copying your own futures account is different from copying someone else's. Most firms that allow the first ban the second.
4. API key rules. Some firms tie the evaluation to one key or IP. Changing it can void the account.

Where Edgeable fits

Edgeable's futures→perps mirroring is in development. We're building Hyperliquid and Bybit followers first, with Propr and MyFundedPerps planned. We won't add a firm that forbids copying. The perp prop firms list shows each firm's status and the source we checked, and you can join early access to test it in DRY_RUN when it's ready.
