What are trading signals?

Trading signals are signals to enter a trade, which the broker provides to traders. They can be based both on fundamental and technical analysis.

A broker can provide signals in several ways:

  • Copy trading.

  • Email alerts.

  • Signals through a blog on the website.

  • Recommendations of a personal manager, etc.

When choosing signals, it is important to take into consideration their profitability, the list of trading instruments, the conditions of their provision – fees, markup, etc.

Admirals Trading Signals

Copy trading signals

Admirals offers a proprietary social trading platform you can use to earn money by automatically copying trades of other Admirals’ clients. This is how it works:

  • You register and complete verification with the broker. After verification, you can open an account with a minimum allowable deposit.

  • In the Copy Trading section of the user account you will find a list of traders with trading statistics for each of them, including profitability for the period, risk level, maximum drawdown, account lifetime, equity, etc.

  • Profiles of each trader have terms of cooperation, such as a monthly fee, which depends on the investor’s amount involved in copying. The subscription amount is paid per each month, regardless of the number of trades and their effectiveness. If investors unsubscribe from a trader's account, payment is only charged for the subscription period.

As of subscription, all trades opened by a trader are copied to the investor's account automatically in accordance with the specified parameters (copying proportion, trade volumes, etc.).

Learn More About MT4 Copy Trading

The other option is copying trades directly from MT4 or MT5. The MQL5.Community is a community of traders based on the MQL5 website. To start copying trades, you need to:

  • Register on the MQL5 website and make a deposit (not to be confused with replenishment of the broker's account).

  • Link the MT4 or MT5 platform to your community account. To do this, go to “Service/Settings/Community” and provide registration information in the community (login and password).

  • In the “Platform” window (or in a window with similar functionality), select the “Signals” tab.

In this tab you will find a list of traders with a detailed review of their trading and subscription fees. Advantages of copying trades via MT4/MT5 are detailed statistics with backtest and strict requirements for getting into the MQL5 rating.

Conclusion

Based on the results of the analysis, Traders Union analysts have concluded that Admirals does not have the best conditions for trading signals. The broker offers a limited choice of instruments, for which signals are provided, high fees and there are questions about signal profitability. Therefore, if you are planning to trade signals, it would be a good idea to consider another option.
