Can You Copy Trade on Coinbase?

Coinbase is one of the best-known names in crypto, so people ask: can you copy trade on Coinbase? The direct answer right now is no, and there are two separate reasons behind that.

Why not, currently

The first reason is asset class. Coinbase is a cryptocurrency exchange, while RelayTrades copy trading is built for US stocks, ETFs, and options, so a Coinbase account is not the kind of account this copy trading is designed for. The second reason is the connection type: copy trading requires a trade-enabled connection so the platform can place orders in your account on your behalf, and a read-only connection only allows data to be viewed, not orders to be routed. For both reasons, copy trading is not available on Coinbase through RelayTrades at this time. Support can evolve, so this may change in the future.

Which brokers do support copy trading

If you want to copy trade US stocks, ETFs, and options, these brokers are set up for it with RelayTrades (through SnapTrade), so copied trades route into your own account:

• Webull, Charles Schwab, Moomoo, E*TRADE, and tastytrade (stocks, ETFs, and options).
• Alpaca, Public, Tradier, and TradeStation (stocks and ETFs).
• Questrade (stocks, ETFs, and options; availability can differ by region).

RelayTrades copy trading is for US stocks, ETFs, and options, not crypto, and it needs a trade-enabled broker connection. Coinbase is a crypto exchange, so copied trades cannot be placed there. Check the current supported-broker list when you connect.

What you can do

If you want to copy trade the assets RelayTrades supports, the practical path is to open or use one of the supported stock brokers above and connect that account. Your funds stay in your own account, RelayTrades never takes custody, and money never leaves your broker. Supported markets and brokers can expand over time, so it is worth checking the current list.
