Features

Rithmic trade copier features

Built for traders running Rithmic-based prop firm accounts who need reliable, low-latency multi-account synchronisation without extra software overhead.

Real-time trade replication

Execute on your Rithmic leader and the order replicates across every connected follower account in real time. Or run Rithmic as a follower, receiving fills from a NinjaTrader, Tradovate, TradingView, or TopstepX leader.

Secure local solution

Your Rithmic credentials and connections stay on your machine. The copier runs as a desktop application, not a hosted cloud service — your sensitive keys are not stored on shared infrastructure.

Local reporting

Per-fill trade logs, latency, and slippage tracked locally. No CSV export-and-upload step to a third-party service — your reporting data stays on your machine.

Multi-broker, unlimited accounts

Copy from Rithmic to unlimited follower accounts across NinjaTrader, Tradovate, and TopstepX — or connect Rithmic as a follower from any other leader platform. Unlimited groups, no per-account fees.

Supported order types

Tradecopia supports market, stop market, and limit orders, plus ATM bracket variants with a single take-profit and single stop-loss per entry. This applies in both directions — whether Rithmic is the leader or the follower. Stop limit, complex multi-bracket, and OCO orders are not currently supported.

Direct Rithmic API integration

Tradecopia connects directly to the Rithmic API using your credentials and system name. No plugin to maintain. Rithmic credentials never expire — once connected, you stay connected without periodic re-authentication.

Economic calendar

Integrated economic calendar shows market events, news releases, and trading restrictions that could impact your positions. Plan around them rather than getting caught flat-footed.

Responsive expert support

Help from people who understand Rithmic and prop-firm rules. Setup guidance, system name selection, gateway troubleshooting, and broker integration from operators — not first-line script-readers.

Advanced risk management

Configure daily and weekly profit/loss limits, per-account trade count limits, and locked risk settings across follower accounts. Each follower account is evaluated independently on every signal.

Real-time performance analytics

Track P&L across every connected account, analyze patterns, and reconcile fills against broker statements. All metrics surfaced live on the dashboard.

Setup

Copy trades on Rithmic without the headache.

Four steps to full trade synchronisation across your personal and prop firm accounts.

01

Sign the Rithmic agreement

Log into your prop firm dashboard and sign the Rithmic agreement. This is required before any connection will work — it is the single most common setup issue.

02

Install and verify R|Trader Pro

Download the latest version of R|Trader Pro from rithmic.com and log in at least once to confirm your credentials work. Then close it — Rithmic allows only one active connection per credential.

03

Connect in Tradecopia

Open Connections → Rithmic. Enter your username, password, select the System Name for your prop firm (e.g. "Apex" for Apex accounts), and choose a gateway.

04

Start trading

Configure leader and follower groups, set risk parameters, and execute. Orders replicate across every connected account in real time.

FAQ

Rithmic trade copier FAQ

How does the Rithmic trade copier work?

Tradecopia connects directly to the Rithmic API using your username, password, and system name — no plugin required. You can run Rithmic as a leader (copying fills to NinjaTrader, Tradovate, TopstepX, or TradingView followers) or as a follower receiving from another leader platform. Rithmic credentials never expire, so once connected the session stays active without periodic re-authentication.

What do I need to do before connecting Rithmic for the first time?

Two things — skipping either one is the leading cause of connection failures. First, sign the Rithmic agreement inside your prop firm dashboard and wait for confirmation. Second, download the latest R|Trader Pro from rithmic.com and log in at least once to verify your credentials. Once verified, close R|Trader Pro — Rithmic only allows one active connection per credential, so running it alongside Tradecopia will cause an Already Logged In error.

Does R|Trader Pro need to stay open while Tradecopia is running?

No — and it should not be. Rithmic allows only one connection per credential at a time. Once you have verified your credentials in R|Trader Pro and closed it, Tradecopia takes that connection slot. If R|Trader Pro is open at the same time, Tradecopia will be kicked out.

Which prop firms use Rithmic?

Rithmic powers the execution layer for many prop firm evaluation programs. Confirmed firms include Apex Trader Funding, Lucid Trading, TopStep, Earn2Trade, LeeLoo Trading, TradeDay, OneUp Trader, Elite Trader Funding, My Funded Futures, and Take Profit Trader. Check with your firm for the correct system name to enter during Tradecopia setup — using the wrong system name is a common connection issue.

What order types are supported on Rithmic?

Tradecopia supports market, stop market, and limit orders on Rithmic, along with their ATM bracket variants: Market ATM, Stop Market ATM, and Limit ATM — each with a single take-profit and single stop-loss per entry. These supported types apply in both directions, whether Rithmic is the leader or the follower. Stop limit orders, complex brackets with multiple targets or stops, and OCO orders are not currently supported.

Copy trades with confidence across every supported platform.

7 days. Every feature. Join the traders running Tradecopia in live sessions across Tradovate, NinjaTrader, Rithmic, and TopstepX.

Risk Disclosure: Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones' financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure: Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
