Copying between your own accounts Allowed, with limits

Copying between two of your own Alpha Capital accounts is allowed, but you must send support the Master and Slave account numbers before copying starts. Only one account can be the Master at a time, and you must tell support before switching. Copying isn't possible on or from cTrader, DX Trade or TradeLocker accounts. Copying other traders or signal groups counts as group trading, which is banned.

Third-party trade copiers Not stated

Alpha's pages don't say which copier software or services may be used, or whether cloud copiers are allowed. Any copy setup must be cleared with support first and isn't possible on cTrader, DX Trade or TradeLocker. Multiple users may not operate accounts through the same IP address. A VPN or VPS needs a static dedicated IP and prior notice to support, or the account may be closed.

Bots and automated trading Restricted

EAs are allowed only on MT5 and only for trade and risk management, such as lot sizing, SL/TP and break-even tools. Each EA needs pre-approval: enable EA at checkout, then email support the EX5 file. Fully automated EAs, third-party bots, HFT and latency arbitrage are banned and lead to immediate closure. EAs aren't available on cTrader, DX Trade, TradeLocker, Swap-Free, Alpha Direct or Focused Trader Group accounts.

“Automated EAs that execute trades independently, without human oversight, are strictly prohibited”

Copying to or from other firms Allowed, with limits

You may use your own account at another prop firm or broker as the Master, once you prove ownership with its account number, investor password and server. You stay responsible for keeping that account active; if it expires or its trades can't be verified, that counts as a breach. The help center also lets an Alpha account act as Master, but section 9.1.5 of the Terms says the only copy trading allowed is from your own external account to your Alpha account.

“Traders may use accounts from other proprietary firms or brokers as a Master”

Opposite positions across accounts Not allowed

Hedging inside one account is allowed. Hedging across two Alpha Capital accounts is banned, and correlated instruments may be counted when it is reviewed. Reverse trading/group hedging is also a prohibited strategy, as is hedging to lock in a price or arbitrage a spread.

“Hedging across two Alpha Capital Group accounts is also considered a prohibited strategy.”

Source: What is classified as Hedging and Stacking?

Platforms

MetaTrader 5 (not for US residents), cTrader (closed to new US customers), DX Trade, TradeLocker

Account limits

You can buy as many evaluation accounts as you like. Qualified Analyst accounts are capped at $400,000 per household before capital growth, and at $300,000 per strategy, where strategy means the asset traded. Traders in the same household must trade different assets. If a passed evaluation would take you over $400,000, Alpha may refund that account.

Included
Hosted by Copygram · Hedging and netting accounts · Auto-reconnect
Receiver controls

Settings for each Alpha Capital account

Each account in a Room has its own settings, so one signal can open different sizes, stops and symbols on each account.

  • Money management

    Fixed lot or risk-based sizing for every copied trade.

    Example Test a new source at a fixed 0.10 lot, then move to percentage-of-balance risk.

  • AI trade validation

    Skip signals whose AI confidence score falls below your threshold.

    Example A 60% threshold executes a signal scored 75% and skips one scored 45%.

  • Stop loss and take profit

    Use the signal's levels, set your own, and decide whether to trade when a level is missing.

    Example Refuse any trade that arrives without a stop loss.

  • Symbol mapping

    Translate the source's symbol names to your platform's names.

    Example GOLD in the signal becomes XAUUSD on your broker.

  • Symbol filters

    Execute only listed symbols, or skip the ones you don't trade.

    Example Copy EURUSD, GBPUSD and XAUUSD only.

  • Lot exceptions per symbol

    A fixed size for specific symbols that overrides the general rule.

    Example Gold always opens at 0.01 even when the default is 0.50.

  • Prefixes and suffixes

    Detect or add broker symbol prefixes and suffixes automatically.

    Example EURUSD becomes EURUSD.pro on a broker that uses the .pro suffix.

  • Copy closes and modifications

    Choose whether exits and SL/TP changes from the source are mirrored.

    Example Follow the entries, but manage your own exits.

  • Trading schedule

    Limit each receiver to the days and hours you choose.

    Example Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 22:00 UTC.

  • MetaTrader comment

    Add a comment to every MT4/MT5 trade, for example when a prop firm asks you to label strategy trades.

    Example Tag every copied trade “CopygramSignal”.

FAQ

Alpha Capital copy trading FAQ

Can I copy TradingView alerts or Telegram signals into Alpha Capital accounts?

Not under Alpha Capital's current rules. It bans automated systems that place trades without human oversight and treats copying signal groups as group trading, so keep the source to trades you place yourself.

Does Copygram work with Alpha Capital's TradeLocker or DXtrade accounts?

Not at Alpha Capital. Copygram can connect TradeLocker and DXtrade accounts in general, but Alpha Capital says copy trading on or from its cTrader, DXtrade and TradeLocker accounts isn't possible. Copy only between its MT5 accounts.

Does Alpha Capital Group allow copy trading?

Copying between two of your own Alpha Capital accounts is allowed, but you must send support the Master and Slave account numbers before copying starts.

How many Alpha Capital accounts can I copy to?

You can buy as many evaluation accounts as you like. Qualified Analyst accounts are capped at $400,000 per household before capital growth, and at $300,000 per strategy, where strategy means the asset traded. Traders in the same household must trade different assets. If a passed evaluation would take you over $400,000, Alpha may refund that account. Copygram's public plans connect up to 5 trading accounts in total.

Can I copy Alpha Capital trades to another prop firm?

You may use your own account at another prop firm or broker as the Master, once you prove ownership with its account number, investor password and server. You stay responsible for keeping that account active; if it expires or its trades can't be verified, that counts as a breach. The help center also lets an Alpha account act as Master, but section 9.1.5 of the Terms says the only copy trading allowed is from your own external account to your Alpha account.

Connect your accounts, set each one's size and limits, and run the copier in the cloud.
