How to Set Up Cloud Trade Copying
Start with the account route you want to copy, then connect the accounts and test the copying rules before using them live.
- Step 1
Choose source and follower accounts
Record each platform, broker, account type and instrument. Confirm the direction you need, such as MT4 as the source and MT5 as the follower, and any connector that must remain online.
- Step 2
Connect and configure the group
Create your account, follow the platform connection instructions, and place the source and followers in a copying group. Review symbol mapping, follower sizing and risk settings for each account.
- Step 3
Check the complete trade lifecycle
Where demo accounts are available, test opening, modifying and closing a trade. Compare the activity log with actual follower orders and fills, and check how your setup handles a lost connection.
Your Computer Doesn't Have to Be the Copier
Traditional trade copiers often depend on a desktop terminal or personal VPS remaining connected. TradeCopier hosts the routing layer in the cloud; source and destination connections and any required connector still need to be available for the selected route.

Your Copying Shouldn't Depend on a Computer Sitting at Home

Internet Dependency
Home internet connections can introduce connectivity problems.
03
VPS Management
Running a VPS adds another system to configure, monitor, update, and maintain.
04
Limited Visibility
Local setups can make centralized monitoring across multiple accounts harder.
Use the Cloud Router Without a Personal VPS
TradeCopier hosts the routing layer, so you do not need to purchase, configure, or maintain a personal VPS for the router. Your broker/platform connections and any required terminal connector or authenticated session still need to remain available.

Check the Connection Path for Your Setup
TradeCopier uses hosted routing for supported account connections. Confirm the source platform, broker permissions, connector location and destination requirements before relying on a particular copying route.

ActionConfirm with support
PurposeVerify the route for your accounts
Understand Each Step of the Copying Path
The hosted router receives source events and sends eligible instructions through a supported destination connection. Network delay, broker acceptance and fills depend on the actual platform, account and market conditions.

Hosted Routing Does Not Depend on an Open Browser
The browser dashboard and the account connection are different parts of the workflow. Closing the dashboard does not stop the hosted router, but broker connections and any required terminal connector must remain available. Confirm which components are hosted or local for your setup.

What Happens If the Cloud Connection Goes Offline?
An interruption to TradeCopier's cloud service can prevent new Master trades from being copied while the connection is unavailable.Trades that are already open at the broker remain open according to normal broker behavior. Do not assume missed signals are replayed or positions are automatically reconciled after reconnecting.

Cloud Infrastructure for Multi-Account Prop Trading
Prop traders often manage multiple accounts with different balances, platforms, and risk limits. A cloud-based copier provides centralized routing and account-level configuration without requiring a separate personal VPS for the hosted router. Broker/platform connections and required connectors still need to be available for each route.

Why Cloud Copying Is Different From Desktop Copying
| Category | Desktop Copier | TradeCopier Cloud |
|---|---|---|
| Where it runs | Runs on a local machine | Hosted infrastructure |
| Machine uptime | Requires machine uptime | Hosted router; account connections must remain available |
| Internet | Local internet dependency | Broker/platform connection still required |
| Maintenance | Manual software maintenance | Account dashboard and support |
| Access | Limited remote accessibility | Hosted router; no personal VPS required for routing |
Replace VPS Maintenance With a Managed Cloud Workflow
Traditional setup may involve
VPS subscription, server configuration, software installation, updates, monitoring, troubleshooting.
TradeCopier
Hosted routing is included. No separate personal VPS is needed for the router. Broker/platform connections and any required connector must still be available.

Frequently Asked Questions
No personal VPS is required to host TradeCopier's router. Your broker/platform connections and any required terminal connector or authenticated session must still remain available; their location depends on the selected route.
The hosted router does not depend on your browser staying open. Source and destination accounts still need working broker/platform connections, and any required terminal, connector or authenticated session must remain available. Check the current requirements for the exact route before switching off a device.
TradeCopier uses hosted infrastructure. Ask support to confirm the connection route and location, and whether a hosted or local connector must remain online for your platform and broker accounts.
Latency depends on the platform, broker, network path, and measurement method. The timings in this page’s interactive examples are illustrative sample data. They are not measured performance benchmarks or guaranteed execution times.
Connection requirements differ by platform and broker. Before connecting an account, confirm the required credentials, permitted trading actions, credential handling and how to revoke access. Copying does not require withdrawal permission.
New source trades or account updates may not be copied while a required connection is unavailable. Existing positions remain at the broker. After reconnecting, compare source and destination positions and check activity logs before resuming. Do not assume that every missed signal is replayed or that positions are automatically reconciled; confirm the recovery behavior for your setup.
TradeCopier supports MT4, MT5, cTrader, NinjaTrader 8, DXTrade, TradeLocker, MatchTrader and VertexFX. The inspected self-service app showed MT5, TradeLocker and cTrader choices; ask support for setup instructions for the other platforms. Confirm the exact broker, account mode, source-to-follower direction and order actions before live copying.
