Trade copier FAQ

CopyFlock is a cloud futures trade copier. You trade one lead account and CopyFlock copies each fill to your follower accounts in real time, sized by each follower's own settings. See how it works.

No. You connect accounts in the browser and copying runs on our servers. There is no NinjaTrader add-on, desktop app or VPS.

Most traders connect a lead and a few followers in about fifteen minutes. We recommend a one-contract test trade before trading full size.

Yes. CopyFlock watches the lead account itself, so orders from NinjaTrader, R|Trader Pro, the Tradovate apps, TopstepX or any other front end connected to that account are copied.

Tradovate (including NinjaTrader brokerage accounts), Rithmic and TopstepX. CQG, Quantower and Volumetrica are not supported.

Through Tradovate's OAuth sign-in. You sign in on Tradovate's own page and CopyFlock never sees your password. See the Tradovate trade copier page.

With your Rithmic username, password and system (for example Apex, Bulenox, Earn2Trade, TheTradingPit, Tradeify, Rithmic 01 or Rithmic Paper Trading). R|Trader Pro can stay open. See the Rithmic trade copier page.

With your TopstepX username and a ProjectX API key. This requires an active ProjectX API subscription, billed by ProjectX. See the TopstepX trade copier page.

NinjaTrader brokerage accounts connect through the Tradovate connection. NinjaTrader 8 users trading prop accounts with a Rithmic login connect those accounts as Rithmic. NinjaTrader doesn't need to be running. See the NinjaTrader trade copier page.

Yes, futures to futures in any direction between Tradovate, Rithmic and TopstepX. Read how to copy from Tradovate to Rithmic.

Equity-to-equity, contract multiplier, risk multiplier, fixed contracts, fixed risk % and fixed risk $. Every result is rounded to whole contracts.

Yes, with symbol aliases. Map NQ to MNQ (or ES to MES) on a follower and set a per-symbol multiplier, for example ×10 for equal exposure. There is no automatic conversion. See the NQ to MNQ guide.

Yes, when copy TP/SL is on. You can also block trades that have no TP/SL so unprotected entries are never copied.

Balance or equity thresholds you set per account. When one is reached, CopyFlock flattens that account and pauses copying to it.

No. Use account protection thresholds and pause/resume instead.

It stays closed until the lead trades again. Use position resync to bring the follower back in line with the lead.

Not always. Follower orders are sent after the lead fills, so prices can differ slightly, especially with market orders in fast markets.

Rules differ by firm and account type, and they change. Many futures firms allow copying between accounts you own, but always check your firm's current rules. See prop firm copy trading rules.

Firms on Tradovate, Rithmic or TopstepX — including Apex, Topstep, Tradeify, Bulenox, Earn2Trade and TheTradingPit. CopyFlock is not affiliated with or endorsed by any firm.

Yes. One lead can copy to followers at several firms and on different platforms. See the prop firm trade copier page.

Not for Tradovate, which uses OAuth sign-in, or TopstepX, which uses an API key. Rithmic has no OAuth, so CopyFlock needs your Rithmic username and password to connect. See our privacy policy.

No. CopyFlock only copies trades you place on your own lead account. Futures trading carries substantial risk; read the risk disclaimer.
