Description
FXCompute Trade Copier is a cloud-based server-side execution plugin that automatically replicates trades across your trading accounts in real time. It operates 24/7 on dedicated cloud infrastructure, copying position opens, modifications, partial closes, and market exits without requiring your device or trading application to stay open.
The plugin provides cross-account trade synchronization, equipped with automated risk management, lot size scaling, symbol mapping, and position protection controls.
Key Functionality
- 24/7 Server-Side Execution: Runs continuously on cloud servers, maintaining active copying even when your local computer or cTrader app is powered off.
- Cross-Account Synchronization: Replicates trades seamlessly between multiple cTrader accounts and supported external trading platforms.
- Multi-Account Aggregation: Merges trade signals from multiple source accounts into a single follower account with customizable lot weights.
- Emergency Close All: One-click control to instantly market-close all active follower positions across linked accounts.
- Automated Position Reconciliation: Background scanner that detects and closes desynchronized follower trades resulting from connection drops.
Integration into Trading Workflow
1. Account Connection: Connect your cTrader accounts via cTrader ID single sign-on or link secondary accounts via a secure authorization token.
2. Session Setup: Select your source account (Leader) and your target account (Follower).
3. Parameter Configuration: Define position sizing rules, Stop Loss and Take Profit offsets, and symbol mapping rules.
4. Passive Cloud Execution: Trade normally on your Leader account. The engine processes execution events in milliseconds and reflects them on your Follower account automatically.
Key Settings and Parameters
- Lot Multiplier: Proportional lot size scaling, for example 1.0 for a 1:1 copy, 0.5 for half size, or 2.0 for double size.
- Risk Per Trade: Automatically calculates follower lot size based on a percentage of account balance or equity.
- Volume Caps: Minimum and maximum lot limits per trade, plus equity percentage caps.
- Reverse Copying: Inverts trade directions so that BUY on the Leader becomes SELL on the Follower, and vice versa.
- Skip Unprotected Trades: Optionally ignores trades placed without an attached Stop Loss or Take Profit.
- SL and TP Distance Override: Defines custom fixed Stop Loss or Take Profit offsets in pips.
- Trailing Stop and Break-Even: Moves Stop Loss to break-even after a target profit level is reached, then trails the spot price.
- Partial Take-Profit Scaling: Closes a defined portion of the position at initial target levels while trailing the remaining volume.
- Symbol Mapping and Multipliers: Maps non-matching broker symbol names such as XAUUSD to GOLD, and applies per-symbol volume multipliers.
- Time and Side Filters: Restricts copying to specific trading hours, days of the week, or trade directions such as Buy Only or Sell Only.
Typical Use Cases
- Multi-Account Portfolio Management: Replicate trades from a primary strategy account across secondary trading accounts while enforcing custom risk limits.
- Cross-Platform Strategy Synchronization: Execute manual trades on cTrader while automatically mirroring positions across supported external terminals.
- Signal Distribution: Distribute trading signals across personal accounts without requiring local VPS software.
- Hedging and Strategy Reversal: Use reverse copying to capture inverse market movements on experimental strategies.
Who This Plugin Is For
This plugin is designed for intermediate to advanced traders, portfolio managers, and multi-account operators who need uninterrupted 24/7 cloud execution, centralized risk management, and automatic desynchronization protection across two or more trading accounts.
Limitations and Usage Notes
- Execution Fill Prices: Signal routing takes milliseconds, but execution fill prices depend on individual broker liquidity, spreads, and market depth.
- Symbol Mapping: Ensure broker symbols are mapped accurately before starting an active copying session.
- Market Opening Hours: Trade requests sent while follower markets are closed will be rejected by the follower broker.
Disclaimer: Trading involves risk. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Summary
Key features include cross-account synchronization, multi-account aggregation with customizable lot scaling, and automated risk management controls such as stop loss, take profit, and volume caps. The plugin supports symbol mapping for brokers with differing symbol conventions and offers advanced trade management tools like trailing stops, break-even adjustments, partial take-profit scaling, and reverse copying to invert trade directions.
Users connect accounts via cTrader ID or secure tokens, select leader and follower accounts, and configure parameters including lot multipliers, risk per trade, and session/time filters. An emergency "Close All" function allows instant closure of all follower positions, while automated position reconciliation detects and corrects desynchronized trades caused by connection issues.
Typical use cases include multi-account portfolio management, cross-platform strategy synchronization, signal distribution without local VPS dependency, and hedging strategies. The plugin is suited for intermediate to advanced traders and portfolio managers requiring continuous, centralized trade copying with integrated risk controls.
