# Sync Trading Profit Share

### What is Profit Share?

Profit Share is a profit-sharing mechanism for Sync Trading.

Leaders can set a Profit Share rate, and the system will calculate and settle the applicable Profit Share based on the currently effective rate and the profits generated from Sync Trading.

### 1. Profit Share Settings

Leaders can set the Profit Share rate under:

**Lead Trading Setting → Fee Structure → Profit Share**

Available Profit Share rates:

**5% / 10% / 15% / 20%**

If the Leader is **setting Profit Share for the first time**, the setting will **take effect immediately**.

If users are already following the Leader, any subsequent change to the Profit Share rate will take effect in the **next Profit Share settlement cycle**.

### 2. Profit Share Settlement

Profit Share is settled:

**Every Monday at 00:00 (UTC+0)**

The system calculates and settles the applicable Profit Share based on the profits generated from Sync Trading and the currently effective Profit Share rate.

During settlement, the Profit Share will be deducted from the user's:

**Available Balance**

and distributed according to the applicable platform rules.

### 3. Fund Information

#### Locked Amount

When you start Sync Trading, the system locks a corresponding amount of USDT based on your:

**Investment Amount**

The Locked Amount remains locked while Sync Trading is active.

When you stop Sync Trading:

* The system will first process any outstanding Profit Share.
* The remaining Locked Amount will be released according to the applicable rules.

#### Estimated Profit Share

Estimated Profit Share is the estimated amount of Profit Share that may be generated.

This amount is not frozen or locked. You should maintain sufficient **Available Balance** to ensure that subsequent Profit Share can be settled properly.

If your Available Balance is insufficient, it may affect the normal operation of Sync Trading.

### 4. Profit Share Example

Assume:

* Profit Share Rate: 10%
* Sync Trading Profit: 200 USDT

Calculation:

**Profit Share = 200 USDT × 10% = 20 USDT**

In this example, the user's Profit Share amount is **20 USDT**.

**The actual amount received by the Leader will be calculated based on the distribution rate corresponding to the Leader's S-VIP level.**
