What does responsible trading mean?
Last updated: 12 August 2026
Our ‘responsible trading policy’ calls on all our clients to protect themselves from emotional decision-making that can result in unnecessary losses.
If you are being copied by other etoro traders, you have to practise responsible trading at all times, as you are passively managing the funds of other people.
Becoming a more responsible trader means:
- Only invest in what you know
- Maintain a low Risk Score
- Diversify your portfolio with assets across many classes
- Copy other responsible traders
Applicants for the Popular Investor program must agree to the Responsible Trading requirements.
