How does an investor get in contact with a trader? ›
Investors on a paid plan can submit a subscription request directly through the platform. They propose a monthly amount and no personal details are exchanged. The trader receives the request in their TheYard dashboard inbox and can accept, decline, or propose a different price. The trader keeps 100% of the agreed monthly fee — TheYard earns from the Pro subscription only. Everything stays on-platform.
What exactly does "verified" mean? ›
Performance is pulled directly from the trader's broker through an independent verification connection. No trader can manually enter or edit their stats — every number, including losing months and drawdowns, is exactly as it happened in their real live account.
Can I cancel anytime? ›
Yes — monthly plans cancel instantly with no penalty. Annual plans are non-refundable but can be paused. Your marketplace listing stays live until the end of your paid period, then comes down — your dashboard stays free forever. You keep all your data and can reactivate anytime.
What is copy trading? ›
Copy trading is when an investor follows a trader and replicates their trades in their own broker account. On TheYard, this works through manual signal alerts — when a trader you subscribe to opens a position, you receive an instant notification with the trade details. You then decide whether to place the same trade yourself in your own broker. You are always in control of what you copy and how much you risk.
What happens after an investor submits a subscription request? ›
The request lands in the trader's TheYard dashboard inbox. The trader can accept the proposed price, decline, or counter with a different monthly amount. The investor sees the response in their portal. No email addresses, phone numbers, or personal details are ever shared between the two parties — all communication happens through the platform.
What brokers are supported? ›
MT4 and MT5 at launch, connected via a read-only investor password — that covers the vast majority of retail forex brokers for now looking to implement more brokers in the future.
What data do you pull from my broker, and who can see it? ›
We only pull trade and equity data through the read-only investor password — never your master login, and we can't place trades or move funds. Investors see your verified performance stats and equity curve; they never see your account number, balance, or any personal or contact details.
What happens if a trader's broker connection drops or their stats look off? ›
If a broker connection fails, the profile is flagged as unverified until it reconnects — figures are never estimated or carried over. Anything that looks inconsistent with normal trading activity is queued for manual review, and profiles can be suspended from the marketplace while that's checked. Investors always see the verification status, not just the numbers.
