TradeDay Trade Copier (2026): Copy Rules, Limits & Setup

Category: Prop Firms | Date: 2026-11-07

Can You Use a Trade Copier on TradeDay?

Yes. TradeDay allows copy trading across your own accounts, but it splits them into two groups that must never be mixed. The rules below were read from TradeDay’s help center article on multiple accounts on 2026-11-07 (last modified 22 Sep). TradeDay changes its rules, so check that page or ask support before you go live.

Evaluation and Funded Sim accounts: you may copy any combination of them, 2 to 10 accounts in total.
Funded Live accounts: you may copy between up to 5 Funded Live accounts.
Never mix the two: copy trading between Funded Live and Evaluation or Funded Sim accounts is not permitted.
Outside accounts: TradeDay allows copying trades from your own personal account elsewhere into your TradeDay accounts.
Account limit: up to 10 accounts in total, with a maximum of 10 evaluations, 5 Funded Sim and 5 Funded Live. One user per household and one username per trader.

In practice this means two copy groups, not one: one for your Evaluation and Funded Sim accounts, and a separate one for your Funded Live accounts. Never put a Live account and an Eval or Sim account in the same group.

Which Platforms Do TradeDay Accounts Use?

TradeDay’s plans are offered on Tradovate or Rithmic, and many traders use NinjaTrader on top of either. Plans come with an intraday or end-of-day trailing drawdown. Quick Pay evaluations have a 30% consistency rule, and Fast Pass plans have 45% (per tradeday.com on 2026-11-07). Signal Trade App connects both Tradovate and Rithmic, so it works with every TradeDay plan.

How to Copy Trades Across TradeDay Accounts

Start a Signal Trade App trial and connect your TradeDay logins: the official Tradovate sign-in for Tradovate accounts, or the Rithmic username, password and system TradeDay gave you for Rithmic accounts.
Create one copy group for your Evaluation and Funded Sim accounts. Choose the account you will actually trade as the leader and add the rest as followers.
If you have Funded Live accounts, create a second, separate copy group for them (up to 5). Do not add an Eval or Sim account to it.
Set a size ratio for each follower so every account stays inside its own contract limit.
Enter each account’s drawdown on the Risk Mgmt page and set an alert level, or turn on a daily P&L lock so an account is flattened and locked for the day at a loss you choose.
Place one small test trade with a stop and target, and check every follower enters and exits with the leader.

Tips for Copying Multiple TradeDay Accounts

Watch the consistency rule

Copied accounts take the same trades, so one big day lands on all of them at once. On a Quick Pay evaluation (30%) or Fast Pass plan (45%), a single outsized day can push every account over the consistency limit together. The built-in journal shows daily P&L per account so you can see it coming.

Accounts started on different days have different room

A trailing drawdown depends on each account’s own history. Two accounts taking identical trades can be very different distances from their floor. Track drawdown per account, and lock one that gets close so it stops copying while the others continue.

Start Copying Your TradeDay Accounts

Signal Trade App copies TradeDay accounts on Tradovate and Rithmic from one leader, with a size ratio, drawdown tracking and lockouts for each account. Confirm TradeDay’s current rules first, then start your 5-day free trial: $39 for the first month, then $29/month (code STA, applied at checkout).

Frequently Asked Questions

Does TradeDay allow trade copiers?

Yes, across your own accounts. As of 2026-11-07, TradeDay’s help center says you may copy any combination of Evaluation and Funded Sim accounts (2 to 10 in total), or between up to 5 Funded Live accounts, but not between Funded Live and Evaluation or Funded Sim accounts.

How many TradeDay accounts can I have?

Up to 10 accounts in total: a maximum of 10 evaluations, 5 Funded Sim and 5 Funded Live, with one user per household.

Can I copy TradeDay Rithmic and Tradovate accounts together?

With Signal Trade App, yes: a Tradovate leader and Rithmic followers, or the reverse, can sit in the same copy group, as long as you keep Funded Live accounts separate from Evaluation and Funded Sim accounts.

Can I copy trades from another prop firm into TradeDay?

TradeDay’s help center allows copying from your own personal account elsewhere into your TradeDay accounts. Copying someone else’s trades is not allowed.

Does a trade copier enforce TradeDay’s rules?

No. TradeDay enforces its own drawdown and consistency rules. Signal Trade App shows each account’s drawdown left, alerts you, and can lock an account, but staying inside TradeDay’s rules is your responsibility.
