Why copy from MetaTrader 5 (MT5) to MatchTrader?

Prop traders often hold funded accounts across multiple firms and platforms simultaneously. When their primary strategy lives on MT5, copying to MatchTrader accounts lets them participate in multiple funded environments without manually trading each one. It also eliminates emotional inconsistency — every account receives the same trades at the same time.

How it works

TradeCopier.cloud continuously monitors the MT5 master account. On any trade event, the corresponding action is sent to the MatchTrader slave via the MatchTrader API. Lot ratios, symbol mapping, and copy filters are managed through the TradeCopier.cloud dashboard.

Things to consider

MatchTrader prop firms may enforce restrictions on news trading or trading during specific hours. TradeCopier.cloud will copy trades regardless of market conditions unless you configure time filters. Review your prop firm's rules and set up any necessary restrictions in your copy configuration.

Frequently asked questions

Can I scale lot sizes when copying from MT5 to MatchTrader?

Yes. You can set a lot size multiplier — for example, 0.5 to copy at half the master's lot size, or 2.0 to double it.

Does this work for EA-based trading on MT5?

Yes. TradeCopier.cloud copies all trades placed on the MT5 account regardless of whether they come from an EA, a script, or manual trading.

Is MatchTrader supported as a master account?

Yes. MatchTrader can be used as the master (source) with MT5 or any other supported platform as the slave.
