Copy Trading on Your PU Prime MT5 Account

If you trade with PU Prime, or you are thinking about opening an account there, you can run Elite Gold Academy's gold copy trading directly on a PU Prime MetaTrader 5 account you own. The model is non-custodial: your money stays at PU Prime, in your name, the whole time. Elite Gold Academy never takes deposits, the mirror connection can place and manage trades but has no withdrawal rights, and you can disconnect whenever you want. This page covers the PU Prime specifics: how the mirror connects, which PU Prime account types make sense for copy trading, how to set everything up step by step, and what an honest set of expectations looks like. For the full explanation of how our copy trading works with any broker, see the main MT5 copy trading guide.

Does Elite Gold Academy work with PU Prime?

Yes. Elite Gold Academy mirrors trades onto MetaTrader 5 accounts, and PU Prime offers MT5 alongside MT4. Any MT5 account at a reputable broker can be connected, and a PU Prime MT5 account qualifies like any other. There is no special integration to wait for and no partnership requirement: the mirror works at the platform level, on standard MT5.

Two things worth being upfront about. First, Elite Gold Academy is broker-neutral: we work with any reputable MT5 broker, and this page is simply a practical guide for people who use or are considering this specific broker. If you already trade somewhere else you trust, you do not need to move. Second, Elite Gold Academy is an independent platform, not owned or operated by PU Prime. We run the copy trading and the education, PU Prime holds your money and executes the trades, and those two roles never mix.

One regional note before anything else: PU Prime operates through several regulated entities, and its availability, account types, and trading conditions vary by country. Some jurisdictions are not served at all. Always check PU Prime's own website for what applies in your region before opening an account.

How does the mirror connect to a PU Prime account?

The mechanics are the same as with any MT5 broker, and they matter because they define who controls what:

That separation, trades from one party and custody at another, is the core of the non-custodial model, and it is the main structural difference from platforms that ask you to deposit with them. The comparison pages break down how this differs from custodial services in detail.

Which PU Prime account type suits copy trading?

PU Prime offers several account types, including Standard, Prime, ECN, and Cent accounts, with Islamic swap-free versions available for traders who need them. Naming and availability can change and can differ by region, so treat this as orientation and confirm the current lineup on PU Prime's own site. For copy trading, the choice mostly comes down to balance size and how you prefer to pay trading costs:

Whichever type you choose, make sure it is an MT5 account. PU Prime supports both MT4 and MT5, and the Elite Gold Academy mirror runs on MT5.

How to set up PU Prime copy trading, step by step

  1. Open a PU Prime account if you do not have one. You can open a PU Prime account here. Choose an MT5 account, pick the account type that fits your balance, and complete PU Prime's verification. If you open an account through the link on this page, Elite Gold Academy may receive a commission from the broker at no extra cost to you. That commission comes from the broker, never from your funds, and it does not change anything about how the mirror treats your account.
  2. Fund the account directly with PU Prime. Deposits go straight from you to the broker. Elite Gold Academy is never part of the money flow, at this step or any other.
  3. Download the Elite Gold Academy app for iOS or Android and create your account.
  4. Connect your PU Prime MT5 account inside the app. The connection lets the mirror place and manage trades, and nothing more. You can connect up to 2 MT5 accounts, so consider adding a demo account alongside your live one.
  5. Pick your access option and message support. Copy Trade Access is the option that includes the mirror, and onboarding is guided. The breakdown of what each option includes is on the pricing page.
  6. Start small and observe. Watch the mirrored gold trades in your own MT5 terminal, understand how positions are opened and managed, and scale only when the behavior makes sense to you.

If you are new to trading entirely, you can also run the mirror on a demo account first and connect a live PU Prime account only once you are comfortable with what you are seeing.

What about gold trading on PU Prime?

Elite Gold Academy is a gold specialist: the strategy, the signals, and the education are built around XAUUSD rather than a menu of hundreds of instruments. PU Prime offers gold as a CFD, with XAUUSD among its metal instruments, which is what the mirror trades on your account. As always, contract specifications, leverage settings, and trading hours for gold are set by PU Prime and can vary by region and entity, so review them on PU Prime's own site.

Gold is liquid, active around the London and New York sessions, and responsive to macro events, which suits a focused rules-based approach. It is also volatile, and volatility cuts both ways. We publish our track record with full transparency on the trust page, and we would rather you judge the strategy there than from marketing copy anywhere on this site.

Honest expectations before you connect a live account

Copy trading changes who makes the trading decisions. It does not remove the risk of trading, on PU Prime or anywhere else. Before you connect a live account, internalize the following:

If any copy trading service tells you drawdowns will not happen or that returns are guaranteed, treat that as a red flag, not a feature.

PU Prime copy trading questions, answered

Does Elite Gold Academy copy trading work with PU Prime?

Yes. PU Prime offers MetaTrader 5 accounts, and Elite Gold Academy mirrors trades onto any reputable MT5 account, so a PU Prime MT5 account can be connected like any other. Elite Gold Academy is broker-neutral: PU Prime is one option among many, not a requirement.

Do I have to move my money to Elite Gold Academy?

No. Your funds stay in your own PU Prime account the entire time. Elite Gold Academy never takes deposits and never holds any part of your trading capital. Deposits and withdrawals only ever happen between you and PU Prime, and only you can move money in or out.

Which PU Prime account type is best for copy trading?

It depends on your balance and cost preference. The Standard account keeps things simple with no separate commission and a low minimum deposit. The ECN account is PU Prime’s lowest-spread option and charges a commission per trade instead, but its minimum deposit is much higher than the Standard account’s, so it only makes sense for larger balances. The Cent account shows balances in cents and is built for trading very small, which suits people testing the mirror with a small balance. PU Prime also offers Islamic swap-free versions. Minimums and availability vary by country, so check PU Prime’s own site for what is offered where you live.

How much do I need to start copy trading sensibly?

There is no universal number. PU Prime’s minimum deposits vary by account type and region, so check the current figures on their own site. The more important question is risk: fund the account only with money you can afford to lose, and size it so a normal losing streak does not force you out. If your starting balance is small, PU Prime’s Cent account exists specifically for trading in very small sizes.

Does the mirror run on MT4 or MT5?

Elite Gold Academy copy trading runs on MetaTrader 5. PU Prime supports both MT4 and MT5, so if you are opening a new account for copy trading, choose MT5. If you already have a PU Prime MT4 account, you would open an MT5 account alongside it to connect.

How do I stop copying trades on my PU Prime account?

Disconnect the account in the Elite Gold Academy app whenever you want. Because your money sits at PU Prime rather than with us, stopping is clean: the mirror simply stops placing trades, your account keeps sitting at your broker, and you can close positions or withdraw directly with PU Prime at any time. Nothing about the setup locks you in.

Is Elite Gold Academy owned by PU Prime?

No. Elite Gold Academy is an independent platform, not owned or operated by PU Prime. We are a gold-focused copy trading and education service that works with any reputable MT5 broker. If you open a PU Prime account through the link on this page, Elite Gold Academy may receive a commission from the broker at no extra cost to you.

Ready to run it on your PU Prime account?
