CopyX & SONIC AI: our verdict after two months of CopyX Trading
Is CopyX Trading with SONIC AI on CopyX legit — or a scam? We kept a public trading journal for two months and documented every single trading day. This is the written version of our verdict: 44 trading days, 65 trades, +32.20% net — including the 2 losing days, the leverage, and the points we cannot prove.
Our verdict as a video · 3:12 min · published September 2, 2026
What is CopyX — and what is SONIC AI?
The two names get mentioned in the same breath all the time, but they refer to two different things. CopyX is the platform: an online service that lets you follow the signals of a trading team. Their trades are transferred to your own trading account in real time, so your capital mirrors their activity one to one, proportional to your account size. You place no orders yourself and make no market decisions of your own.
SONIC AI is the team we follow on CopyX — and the only one we follow. Behind it are six German traders. The strategy trades gold against the US dollar exclusively (XAU/USD), making it active in the largest financial market in the world, the forex market. One to three trades are typically placed per trading day, with clearly defined risk management.
In practice that means you need no prior knowledge to execute anything — the account follows automatically. What you do need is an understanding of the risk. There is a separate section on that below, and we deliberately did not bury it.
How we tested
Over eight weeks we did not just watch. We deliberately probed the points where dubious providers tend to fall apart:
- Deposits and withdrawals tested on purpose. Not just paying in, but withdrawing repeatedly — including the broker's automatic profit withdrawals. Both worked.
- Attended the Zoom community calls almost daily. In our view the personal exchange is a large part of the value here: newcomers in particular get help from several directions, and you see who is behind the numbers.
- Documented every trading day publicly. As a video and as a monthly report, with the entry and exit price of every single trade. Losing days included — a journal that only shows winners would be worthless.
- Checked the costs. There is no sign-up fee and there are no monthly costs. The only charge is a performance fee of 30 % on profits made. Every net figure on this page is after that fee.
The numbers from 44 trading days
Across July and August 2026 the SONIC team placed a total of 65 trades. 57 of them were winners, 8 ended in a loss — a win rate of 87.7 %.
| Month | Days | Trades | Win rate | Gross | Net |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| July 2026 | 23 | 38 | 86.8 % | +22.76% | +15.23% |
| August 2026 | 21 | 27 | 88.9 % | +21.87% | +14.73% |
| Total | 44 | 65 | 87.7 % | +49.61% | +32.20% |
The most telling figure, in our view, is not the win rate but the ratio behind it: there were 8 losing trades, but only 2 losing days. On most days a loss is recovered the same day. In total, 95.5 % of all trading days were positive.
We always calculate returns net, meaning after the performance fee. Across the two months the average daily return was +0.64% net. The best day was July 27, 2026 at +1.93%, the weakest July 2, 2026 at −0.61%.
What that would have meant on a $5,000 account
With profits reinvested daily, $5,000 would have grown to roughly $6,610 over two months — +$1,610 net. Worth putting in context: this figure comes from compounding — it is not the sum of the daily returns but their geometric chain. And it is a backward calculation over a past period, not a forecast.
Leverage — the part you have to understand
Trading runs at 24x leverage. The account size displayed in MetaTrader equals 24 times the amount actually deposited. Deposit $5,000 and the terminal shows $120,000.
Which leads directly to this: a price move of roughly 4.17 % against the position would consume the real deposit entirely. Leverage is why small price moves turn into the daily returns shown above — and in exactly the same measure it is why a total loss is possible.
What we show here is two months. Two months is a short period, and gold traded in an environment that suited the strategy during that time. We have not yet lived through a phase with different market conditions. So commit only capital whose complete loss you could absorb.
The 2 losing days in detail
These days are as much part of the picture as the good ones. Both are published as daily videos too:
- July 2, 2026 — −0.61%. One trade: BUY 4,124.15 → 4,120.96. The trade moved against the position and was closed at a loss.
- August 4, 2026 — −0.21%. 2 trades: SELL 4,061.67 → 4,058.91, SELL 4,076.22 → 4,080.12. Not every trade that day went against us, but the day closed in the red overall.
The complete list of all 44 trading days with every gold price is in the monthly reports, linked at the bottom of this page.
What we cannot prove
It matters more to us that you form a realistic picture than that this page sounds convincing. So here are the open points:
- We can say nothing about the future. 44 trading days are a snapshot. Past results are no indicator of what comes next.
- We speak only for our own accounts. What other members experienced, we cannot confirm — ask them yourself on a community call.
- We have no insight into the strategy logic. We see the trades, not the reasoning behind them.
- We have not been through an extended drawdown. How the strategy behaves in a sustained unfavourable market, we simply do not know.
- We are not neutral. We trade this strategy ourselves. Read this page accordingly, as a first-hand report from participants, not as an independent test.
How to check all of this yourself
The internet is full of alleged results that cannot be traced. Which is exactly why here are the ways to verify our claims — without having to take our word for it:
- Myfxbook, account 12076857. The strategy statistics are public there and viewable at any time.
- The MetaTrader app. As a participant you see every copied trade on your own account in real time.
- Our monthly reports. Every trading day with entry and exit price, ready to recalculate: July 2026 (+15.23% net), August 2026 (+14.73% net), the running September 2026 report. These reports are in German, but the tables read the same in any language.
- The YouTube journal. Every trading day as a short video — the winning days just as much as the 2 losing days.
- A community call on Zoom. The most honest route: listen in once, no strings attached, and ask people directly.
What happened since
So this verdict does not stand as a frozen snapshot: since September 1, 2026 another 18 trading days have been added, standing at +15.26% net for the running month as of September 25, 2026. That period is documented day by day in the September report as well. We keep this page updated — including when a month goes badly.
CopyX & SONIC AI — the questions we get asked most
CopyX is the platform for CopyX Trading. You select a trading team, and their trades are mirrored onto your own trading account in real time — your capital reproduces their activity one to one, proportional to your account size. You place no orders yourself and make no market decisions of your own.
SONIC AI is the trading team we follow on CopyX — the only one we follow. It consists of six German traders. The strategy trades gold against the US dollar (XAU/USD) exclusively and typically places one to three trades per trading day.
We cannot answer that in general terms — only describe what we experienced ourselves. Over 44 trading days, 65 trades were copied to our accounts, we deliberately tested deposits and withdrawals and both worked, and our results match the public Myfxbook account 12076857. What we cannot do: predict the future or speak for anyone else. Verify it yourself before you commit money.
+32.20% net across July and August 2026 combined, meaning after the 30 % performance fee (+49.61% gross). That figure is calculated geometrically, with profits reinvested daily — it is not the sum of the daily returns. On average that was +0.64% net per trading day.
No. There is no sign-up fee and there are no monthly costs. The only charge is the performance fee of 30 % on profits actually made — no profit, no fee.
High. Trading runs at 24x leverage: the account size shown in MetaTrader equals 24 times the amount actually deposited. In plain terms, a price move of roughly 4.17 % against the position would wipe out the real deposit entirely. Leverage cuts both ways — it is the reason for the returns shown here and, in equal measure, the single biggest risk.
The strategy statistics are public on myfxbook.com under account number 12076857. We publish our own journal every trading day as a video and as a monthly report listing every single entry and exit price — losing days included. Through the MetaTrader app everything can be followed in real time.
No. We give no investment advice, make no recommendations and give no assurances about future results. This page documents experiences we made ourselves, nothing more. What you make of it is your decision.
