Take a break from research
Social trading is not always about lacking the time or experience to trade the old fashioned way. Many social traders are quite skilled and have the time to do the research, but just need to have a break from active portfolio management sometimes.
Short-term trading styles can be very demanding, and by emulating others you can take a break from the intensive and exhaustive processes of doing the research for yourself. Social features are advancing financial industries using tools we are used to in our casual internet browsing, and the social trading revolution is reinventing the way we think about finance and exercising our strategies on the nextmarkets platform.

Cooperative vs competitive trading
Social trading is cooperative in nature, and doesn’t include the more competitive elements of conventional investing. Social traders can work together in trading teams, collaborating to find success on the market. Some people even go as far as to pool their funds, divide up research and share the information.
It’s a healthier environment where people learn from each other and share in the success that was previously reserved only for insiders and experts, and the nextmarkets community cultivates an atmosphere of sharing. Competitive trading will always have its place, and some people live for it, but it’s good to have an alternative, and social trading is the perfect answer for people looking for a radically different approach.
Social trading definition
Traders on the nextmarkets platform are uniquely positioned to try social trading for themselves. As a trader on nextmarkets, you are able to view and follow market analysis from our team of in-house experts, as well as view their market activities and copy their trades if you so desire.
Our platform can be accessed from the desktop app and our richly-featured mobile app, so you can keep an eye on the experts and your peers wherever you are. Whether you favour FX trading (Was ist Forex?) or the CFD option (What is CFD trading?), by following the principles of social trading you will have the help of experts and those ‘in the know’ to inform your decision making.
