Thank you for your interest in using signal providers on Deriv.

You can browse, compare, and choose from a wide variety of signal providers directly through our platforms!

**Here’s where you can find them:**

**1. Deriv Trader (Recommended)** This is the primary platform for accessing and managing your copied trades.

- **Go to:** [**Deriv Trader**](https://deriv.com/trader/)
- **Navigate to the “Signal” tab** located on the left sidebar menu.
- Here, you will see a list of all available signal providers. You can review their performance statistics, trading history, and other key metrics to help you make an informed decision.

**2. Deriv Bot** You can also set up a copy-trading bot using signals.

- **Go to:** [**Deriv Bot**](https://deriv.com/bot/)
- When creating a bot, choose the “Signal” strategy. You will then be prompted to select a signal provider from the same comprehensive list.

**Deriv cTrader**

- In cTrader, open the **“Copy” tab from the left sidebar** (cTrader Copy).
- Here, you can explore available providers, review their equity curve, fees, drawdown, and other key metrics.
- Select a provider to view details, then click **“Start Copying” to subscribe** and set your allocation and risk controls.

**Before you start copying:**

- **Do your research:** Carefully review each provider’s historical performance, maximum drawdown, and other statistics. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
- **Understand the risks:** Copy trading involves significant risk. You are responsible for any losses incurred in your account based on the copied trades.
- **Start small:** It’s often advisable to start with a smaller amount to familiarize yourself with how copy trading works.

We hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have any other questions!
