Cross-Platform Trade Copying
MetaTrader 5 (MT5) to TradeLocker
Copying trades from MetaTrader 5 to TradeLocker is a natural fit for prop firm traders. Both platforms are widely used in the funded account space, and TradeCopier.cloud enables real-time synchronisation between the two with no local software required.
MetaTrader 5 (MT5)
MetaTrader 5 has become the go-to platform for many prop firms due to its multi-asset support and robust infrastructure. Traders who have funded MT5 accounts or who run their strategies on MT5 often need a reliable way to replicate those trades on other platforms they hold accounts on.
TradeLocker
TradeLocker has emerged as one of the most popular platforms among newer prop firms. Its web-based interface, REST and WebSocket API, and mobile support make it appealing to both firms and traders. TradeLocker supports forex, metals, indices, and crypto trading.
Why copy from MetaTrader 5 (MT5) to TradeLocker?
A trader might run their primary strategy on an MT5 personal account and need to mirror it across one or more TradeLocker prop firm accounts. Rather than watching two platforms and duplicating entries manually, the MT5-to-TradeLocker copy setup automates the replication entirely — including trade modifications and closes.
How it works
TradeCopier.cloud polls the MT5 master for trade state changes and forwards them to TradeLocker via the TradeLocker API. The system handles partial fills, modifications, and closures. Lot sizing is configurable, and symbol filtering lets you exclude specific instruments from being copied.
Things to consider
TradeLocker prop firms often have daily loss limits and maximum position size rules. Since TradeCopier.cloud copies trades exactly as placed on the master (with optional lot scaling), ensure your MT5 trading behaviour doesn't inadvertently violate TradeLocker prop firm rules. Setting a lot size multiplier below 1.0 can help manage risk across accounts of different sizes.
Frequently asked questions
Can I copy from TradeLocker to MT5 instead?
Yes. Master and slave roles are fully reversible. You can set TradeLocker as the master and MT5 as the slave.
What if my MT5 and TradeLocker accounts trade different symbols?
Use the symbol alias feature in TradeCopier.cloud to map symbol names between platforms, or use the symbol blacklist to exclude instruments not available on the destination account.
How many TradeLocker accounts can I copy to from one MT5 master?
There is no hard limit. You can add as many slave accounts as your subscription covers.
