The decision raises questions about the sustainability of copy trading models in tightly regulated markets such as Thailand. While Exness has not publicly explained the rationale behind the phase-out, industry observers point to increasing scrutiny from regulators and shifting user demand toward direct trading and automated solutions in Thailand.
Copy trading, once touted as a democratizing tool for retail investors, has faced challenges globally. Issues around transparency, investor protection, and regulatory compliance have led several brokers to scale back or restructure similar services in recent years.
What It Means for Thai Traders
For Thai users, the closure represents both a disruption and an opportunity. Investors who relied on passive strategies will need to reassess their portfolios and consider transitioning to direct trading or alternative platforms. Strategy providers, meanwhile, face the end of performance fee revenues tied to copy trading.
With the timeline now clear, Thai Exness copytraders are urged to check directly with Exness about the Copy Trading service and plan ahead for their investments. Whether reallocating funds, shifting to personal trading, or exploring other platforms, proactive steps will be critical to avoid last-minute disruptions when the service shuts down in June 2026.
