Futures Trade Copying

Tradovate to TopstepX

Copying from Tradovate to TopstepX puts TopstepX accounts behind a Tradovate master. Each TopstepX follower is added with a ProjectX API key and the TopstepX username it belongs to, and only simulated accounts that are open for trading can be added, because live TopstepX accounts can't be managed through the ProjectX API. Size each follower in contracts, add an alias such as RTY to M2K if it trades micros, and read Topstep's latest copy-trading rules before you start.

Why copy from Tradovate to TopstepX?

A Tradovate-to-TopstepX setup suits traders whose futures accounts are split across platforms, for example a Tradovate account they trade by hand and prop accounts that run on TopstepX. The TopstepX accounts follow the Tradovate master, so each order is placed once rather than once per platform.

How it works

TradeCopier.cloud connects the Tradovate master and the TopstepX follower from the cloud, each through its own login. Opens and closes on the master are sent on to the TopstepX account, with its contract sizing, symbol aliases (for example YM to MYM for a smaller account) and TP/SL offsets in ticks applied there.

Things to consider

Tradovate and TopstepX are connected in different ways, and each login has to stay authorised for copying to continue. Firms also differ on maximum position size and on whether copy trading is allowed, so check your firms' current rules and test with a single contract before you copy at full size.

Frequently asked questions

Does copying work the other way, from TopstepX to Tradovate?

Yes. Tradovate, Rithmic and TopstepX accounts can each be a master or a follower, so either direction works.

Does the TopstepX account have to trade the same contract?

It trades the master's contract unless you add a symbol alias. An alias can swap a full-size contract for its micro, for example YM to MYM at ten times the contracts.

Can one Tradovate master copy to more than one TopstepX account?

Yes. Add each TopstepX account as its own follower with its own sizing. Followers on the other supported futures platforms can follow the same master too.
