What is TradeCloner?
A cloud-based futures trade copier for traders running several prop firm accounts
Updated October 6, 2026
TradeCloner is a cloud-based trade copier built specifically for futures traders managing multiple prop firm accounts. You place one trade on your master account and TradeCloner mirrors it across all of your follower accounts. TradeCloner's own processing adds well under 100 ms. The rest is the broker's order handling.

Because everything runs in the cloud 24/7, you never have to keep your computer on for trades to copy.
Who is it for?
- Prop firm traders running multiple funded accounts (Apex, TopStep, and more)
- Traders who want to scale one strategy across many accounts without placing duplicate orders by hand
- Anyone managing several Tradovate, NinjaTrader, ProjectX or Rithmic accounts at the same time
How it works
- Connect your broker accounts. Tradovate and NinjaTrader connect by OAuth; Rithmic passwords and ProjectX API keys are encrypted at rest
- Create a copy group with one master (leader) and one or more followers
- Trade on the master account in your normal trading platform
- TradeCloner detects the fill over WebSocket and copies it to every follower instantly

Supported brokers
TradeCloner connects to every major prop-firm platform. Add any of these from Connections → Add Connection:
| Platform | How you connect | Works with |
|---|---|---|
| Tradovate | OAuth redirect | Apex, Topstep, Tradeify and more |
| NinjaTrader | OAuth (via Tradovate) | NinjaTrader Brokerage prop-firm accounts |

You can mix brokers freely, for example, a Tradovate master copying to Rithmic and ProjectX followers. Live market data (Console P&L, home-page price tiles) comes from Databento's CME Globex feed, not from your broker connections.
