Alertsify rolls out Duplicate Copy Trade Protection — when multiple traders enter the same position within a short window, the system detects it and prevents duplicate orders from stacking in your account.
The Problem
If you follow multiple traders, there's a chance two or more will enter the same options contract around the same time. Without protection, your account could end up with duplicate positions — doubling your exposure without your intent.
How It Works
The system now tracks every incoming trade signal. When a new signal comes in, it checks:
1. Is there already an open position in the same contract?
2. Was a signal for this contract received within the last few minutes?
3. Is the incoming signal from a different trader than the original?
If all three conditions are true, the duplicate signal is blocked. You get a notification, and the trade is logged — but it doesn't execute.
Why This Matters
- Capital protection — no unintended position doubling
- Risk management — your exposure stays within your settings
- Transparency — every blocked trade is logged and visible
This feature is enabled by default for all copy trading subscribers. No configuration needed.
