Hello I have a question if any one know how to delay traders from a copy trading tool, like social trading tools. So that on my main account we take a trade, and the account we copy too, will delay the trade with 3-5 seconds?

You should ask the creators of those specific copy trading tools how to do it. It will vary depending on how those tools are coded. This feature may be absent completely from some copy trading tools.

Personally, I don’t support copy trading because it leaves traders with no knowledge. So, I would suggest traders focus on self-development. It will give you profit-generating ability.

I guess you will need to create a separate master account that will copy trades via some MQL5 bot (receives signal from original master account, waits for 3-5 sec and opens orders) and then route clients to that separate master account. Don't think copy platforms support this feature by default.

I read to add a delay in copy trading, just modify your copy trading tool's settings to wait 3-5 seconds before copying trades to the other account.

Why would you need to do that, it only cause more problems for the copier account, a delay in opening =slippage + delay in closing.
