No, you will not know that.

You should be very careful with whom you share your Investor access. Assume always that they can copy your trades or create signals with it.

So, change your Investor password regularly if you share it.

Obviously not! Your Journal or Experts logs just shows what YOU are are doing on YOUR terminal on your PC, not what others are doing.

Your broker, may have a service that shows the IPs that are logged onto your account, but very few brokers offer that information.

What is bad, is you sharing your investor password with just anyone. Don't! Be selective! And change your password often, and as soon as it is no longer required by the 3rd party to view your account.

EDIT: Remember that you are supposed to be a retail trader for yourself and not others. As far as I know, according to German laws, you are not allowed to trade for others or even offer a signal service without a valid license to do so.
