PredScout Copy Trading: Skipped, Pending, Failed Trades
If PredScout copy trading looks like it is not working, start with Recent copy activity. A signal can be copied, partly filled, skipped, waiting for approval, or failed. Those states mean different things, and only some create a position.
Open Copy Trading, select the correct Paper or Live mode, and use the activity filters for strategy, trader, status, and time range. Open the record that concerns you before submitting another order or changing a rule.

Copied and partially filled
Copied means an eligible signal produced a copied execution. Check the record's actual fill and then look in Portfolio for the resulting order and position. A copied buy can increase a position; a copied sell can reduce one.
Partially filled means only part of the intended amount traded. This can happen when the available orders do not cover the whole amount under the strategy's execution conditions. The filled portion may appear in your position, while the rest was not executed. Read the record's filled amount before deciding what remains to do.
A partially filled copy trade may also have a different average price from the target wallet. Compare the target price, expected copy price, and actual fill price shown in the record.
Skipped: a rule or market condition blocked the copy
Skipped means PredScout did not execute that signal. Open its Skip reason. The interface lists reasons including a daily amount limit, an allocation that is already full, a per-order limit, a per-market position cap, a price-deviation limit, insufficient liquidity, a wide spread, or an order below the market minimum.
For example, a 5% ratio on a $20 target buy produces a $1 intended copy. If that market requires a larger minimum order, the signal can be skipped under a skip-below-minimum setting. Raising the ratio or using the builder's rounding option changes the exposure, so review the trade size before changing either.
Some reasons are intentional protections. A copy trade skipped because the price moved past your maximum deviation shows that the rule stopped a more expensive buy. Removing that limit to force more copies also changes your risk.
Pending approval and approval expired
Pending approval means the strategy requires your decision before PredScout submits the signal. This can happen when you chose Confirm each trade or when a condition triggers Conditional approval. Open the pending signal, check the target action, market, price, size, and current conditions, then approve or reject it.
Approval expired means the decision window ended before a valid approval was completed. A stale signal should not be assumed to have executed. Check its record and your Orders tab. Manual approval gives you control, but markets can move while you review a trade.
When PredScout copy trading shows repeated pending signals, check the strategy's approval setting and whether you are receiving its notifications. The Copy Trading page shows in-app and Telegram notification options.
Failed and canceled
Failed means an attempted copy did not complete. Read the record's error or reason. Possible problems include unavailable liquidity, balance or order constraints, or a market that no longer accepts the trade. The exact record matters more than the status label alone.
Canceled means the order or signal was canceled. Check whether any quantity filled before cancellation; an order can have an execution history even if its remaining amount was canceled. Use Orders in Portfolio to confirm the final fill status.
If PredScout copy trading is not working after you inspect a record, check four basics: the correct account mode, whether the strategy is running, whether the target wallet traded during the selected time range, and whether the signal was eligible under your rules. Then compare the copy activity with Orders and Positions. This sequence prevents a skipped signal from being mistaken for a missing position.
