GAMM Certified Managers: your money stays with you, fees only on real profit

Investors in managed accounts keep asking two questions: “How do I know this manager is really disciplined?” and “If I hand over my money, who holds it?” The new phase of GAMM gives a clear answer to both.

Evaluation first, then the badge

A manager who wants investors first goes through an evaluation period. During it the account is monitored live against the risk rules the manager committed to: a daily loss limit, a total drawdown limit and optional rules on volume, leverage, symbols and stop losses. Every breach is recorded with its exact time and cannot be deleted.

Once the minimum monitored days, the minimum discipline score and the no-breach condition are met, a PAMM Iran specialist reviews the record and, on approval, the account earns the “GAMM Certified Manager” badge. The badge cannot be bought, and it is withdrawn, with a stated reason, if the manager later breaks the rules.

Your money stays with you

In GAMM your money never goes to the manager’s account and no password is ever asked for. You keep a live account at your own broker and install the PAMM Iran copy-trading receiver on it. Every trade the manager opens, modifies or closes is mirrored on your account. You choose the sizing, the maximum volume per trade and the emergency stop, and you can stop copying at any time.

Fees only on real profit

The performance fee uses a high-water mark, the method common among reputable funds worldwide:

• Profit is measured from the equity of your own account.
• Deposits and withdrawals are not profit; adding new money never costs you a fee.
• The fee is charged only on profit that takes the account above its previous high. After a loss, no fee is charged until the loss is fully recovered.
• An invoice is issued at the end of each period and paid from your PAMM Iran wallet, automatically if you choose.

An example: your account starts at 1,000 dollars and ends the month at 1,100. With the manager’s 20 percent fee, this month’s fee is 20 dollars and the high-water mark moves to 1,100. If the account falls back to 1,050 the next month, there is no fee; the month after, only profit above 1,100 is charged.

If an invoice goes unpaid

After the grace period, new trades are no longer copied to your account, but closing open trades still goes through so your account is never left unattended. Until the invoice is paid, you cannot follow another GAMM manager either.

Before you start

The “GAMM Certified Manager” badge means the manager kept to their rules during evaluation; it is not a promise of profit. Leveraged trading is high risk and can lose capital. Before starting, review the account’s committed rules, breach log and daily history on its page, and read the GAMM guide.
