TRADELOCKER TO FUTURES

Your TradeLocker workflow. Your Tradovate futures accounts.

A TradeLocker-to-Tradovate trade copier connects a source trading account to futures receivers. Copygram runs the connection through a Room. You choose the destination contract, quantity and trade-management rules for each receiving account.

SETUP GUIDE

How to copy TradeLocker trades to Tradovate

Connect your accounts, map the exact futures contract and configure each receiver before activating the Room.

  1. 01

    Connect your TradeLocker source

    In Copygram, open Trading Accounts and choose TradeLocker. Enter your trading email, password and provider’s server. Select the trading account you want to copy from, then give the connection a clear name.

  2. 02

    Connect your Tradovate receiver

    Add Tradovate using your username and password. Copygram generates the Device ID for the connection. Select the intended receiving account and give it a name you can recognize when building the Room.

  3. 03

    Link the accounts in a Room

    Create a Copygram Room, choose TradeLocker as the source and add your Tradovate receiver. Add further receiving accounts when needed, with independent settings for each. Keep the account you trade from clearly identified as the source.

  4. 04

    Map contracts and set quantities

    Map the exact TradeLocker symbol to the dated futures contract shown in Tradovate. Set a whole-contract receiver quantity and review symbol-specific exceptions, stop-loss and take-profit behavior, Copy Close Orders and Copy Modif Orders.

  5. 05

    Activate and follow your trades

    Activate the Room and trade from your connected TradeLocker source. Review Copygram’s activity logs alongside Tradovate’s orders and positions. Keep the receiving contract mapping up to date when you change futures expirations.

FUTURES RECEIVER SETTINGS

Choose the contract. Control the quantity.

CFD source lots and futures contracts use different units. Configure the receiving instrument and its settings explicitly.

Map to a dated futures contract

Use the exact TradeLocker symbol as the source and the tradable futures symbol shown in Tradovate as the destination. A continuous chart label such as MNQ1! does not identify a specific expiration. Select the actual contract you intend to trade.

For example, MNQZ6 identifies the December 2026 Micro E-mini Nasdaq-100 contract. Update the mapping when you change expirations, and review any symbol-specific settings. Existing positions still need their own management.

Set quantities in whole futures contracts

Choose the receiving quantity for the futures product you selected. A TradeLocker lot is not one Tradovate contract, and choosing a Micro instead of an E-mini changes the exposure. Use an instrument-specific quantity where needed. Each receiver can follow the same source with its own sizing settings.

A NAS100-to-MNQ configuration example

Suppose your TradeLocker account labels its Nasdaq-100 instrument NAS100. An illustrative setup maps it to MNQZ6 and sets the Tradovate receiver to 1 contract. MNQ has a $2 multiplier per index point and a 0.25-point minimum tick, equal to $0.50 per contract. This describes the futures contract, not an equivalent source lot size.

The source CFD and futures contract can quote different prices. Mapping the name does not convert entry, stop-loss or take-profit levels into equivalent prices. Review those receiver settings, plus Copy Close Orders and Copy Modif Orders, for the instrument you are trading.

FAQ

TradeLocker to Tradovate FAQ

Answers about account connections, futures symbols, contract quantities and trade management.

Can I copy trades from TradeLocker to Tradovate?

Yes. Copygram connects TradeLocker as the source and Tradovate as the receiver in a Room. Connect both accounts, map the source symbols to Tradovate futures contracts, configure the receiving quantities and trade-management settings, then activate the Room.

What do I need to connect TradeLocker and Tradovate?

For TradeLocker, use your trading email, password and server, then select the source account. For Tradovate, use your username and password; Copygram generates the Device ID. Choose the intended receiving account before adding it to the Room.

Can one TradeLocker source copy to multiple Tradovate accounts?

Yes. Add multiple Tradovate receivers to the Room and configure each independently. You can choose different symbols, quantities and trade-management settings for each account. Your Copygram plan determines how many trading accounts you can connect.

How do I map a TradeLocker symbol to a Tradovate futures contract?

Use Symbol Matching in the receiver settings. Enter the exact source symbol and the exact dated futures symbol available in Tradovate. For example, an illustrative NAS100 route could target MNQZ6, the December 2026 Micro E-mini Nasdaq-100 contract. Choose the actual expiration you intend to trade; the example is not a permanent mapping.

Can I use NQ1! or MNQ1! as the receiving symbol?

Use the actual dated contract shown in Tradovate. A continuous chart symbol such as NQ1! or MNQ1! is not a specific contract expiration. Search the receiving instrument in Tradovate and copy its tradable symbol into your receiver mapping.

Does a TradeLocker lot equal one Tradovate contract?

No. A source lot and a futures contract are different quantities. Set the receiver’s whole-contract quantity for the selected futures product. A symbol-specific exception can override the general sizing rule. Mapping a symbol does not make the contract size, exposure or margin requirement equivalent.

Can I choose Micro E-mini rather than E-mini contracts?

Yes. Map the source symbol to the exact Micro E-mini contract you want to trade and set the receiving quantity accordingly. Micro E-mini Nasdaq-100 uses the MNQ root; E-mini Nasdaq-100 uses NQ. They have different contract sizes, so review the selected product’s specifications.

Will TradeLocker entry, stop-loss and take-profit prices match Tradovate?

Not necessarily. A broker’s CFD and a listed futures contract can quote different prices even when they track a similar market. Symbol mapping selects the receiving instrument; it does not make the price levels equivalent. Review the receiver’s entry, stop-loss and take-profit settings for that futures contract.

Can Copygram follow source closures and order changes?

Yes. Configure Copy Close Orders and Copy Modif Orders for each Tradovate receiver, together with its stop-loss and take-profit behavior. The receiving contract’s tick size, order rules and market session still apply to those actions.

What should I change when a futures contract rolls over?

Update the receiver’s symbol mapping to the dated contract you intend to trade next. Review any symbol-specific quantities and filters too. Changing a mapping is not the same as closing an existing position or moving it to a new expiration; manage those positions separately.

Does this work with demo, live and prop firm accounts?

Copygram supports demo and live accounts. For a prop firm account, follow that firm’s current rules on copying, third-party tools and account access. Platform support does not replace the firm’s permission to use a particular workflow.

Do I need a copier EA or my own VPS?

No. Copygram hosts the copying connection in the cloud. You do not need an EA or your own VPS for the TradeLocker-to-Tradovate route. Keep the connected accounts and Room active.

Why might a copied Tradovate order be rejected?

Check the Copygram activity log for the receiver’s response. Common checks include the exact dated symbol, whole-contract quantity, available margin, trading session and valid order prices. Also review the account connection, symbol filters and the receiver’s trading schedule.
