From One Alert to Every Topstep Account
Get your ProjectX API key
Subscribe to ProjectX API Access at dashboard.projectx.com, then in TopstepX open Settings → API, link ProjectX and click Add API Key.
Add your Topstep accounts
In CopyTrade, choose TopstepX and enter your TopstepX username and the API key. Add each Topstep account you want to trade, using its name exactly as TopstepX shows it.
Create a TradingView alert
Paste your personal CopyTrade webhook URL into the alert and use the message template from your dashboard: symbol, size, stop-loss, TP1, TP2 and breakeven buffer.
Every switched-on account trades
When the alert fires, each Topstep account enters as soon as the alert arrives, with its own stop and targets. Your computer can be off.
Full Trade Management, Not Just Entries
TP1, BREAKEVEN, TP2, STOP
Your alert's stop-loss and take-profits are placed as real orders at the broker from each account's actual fill. When TP1 fills, the stop moves to breakeven on that account automatically.
DAILY LIMITS PER ACCOUNT
Give each account its own daily profit target and loss limit. Reach one and that account's open trades are closed and it stops for the day, while your other accounts keep trading.
DRAWDOWN GUARD
Follow your trailing drawdown and stop new trades, or close them, before an account gets too close. See the drawdown guard.
SIZE, DIRECTION AND HOURS
Each account can trade the alert's size, a fixed size or a multiple of it, the opposite direction, and only inside its own trading hours (Eastern Time).
NEWS PAUSE
Optionally stop new trades around CPI, the jobs report, FOMC and other high-impact US releases, and have open trades closed when the pause starts.
ALERT INBOX
Every alert is listed with what each account did and why: filled, skipped outside its hours, blocked by a limit, or ignored as a repeat.
Questions About Copying Topstep Accounts
Does CopyTrade work with Topstep accounts?
Yes. Topstep accounts connect through TopstepX, Topstep's trading platform, using a ProjectX API key. Add each Topstep account you want to trade, and one TradingView alert trades all of them.
Do I need a paid API subscription?
Yes. TopstepX API access is a separate subscription from ProjectX, Topstep's platform provider, paid to them rather than to CopyTrade. As of September 2026 it is $29 a month, and the code topstep gives 50% off.
Does Topstep allow copy trading or automated trading?
Topstep sets its own rules on automated trading, API access and trading the same strategy across accounts, and changes them. Topstep doesn't allow API trading on Live Funded accounts. Check Topstep's current rules for your account type before connecting it.
Can I copy Topstep and other prop firm accounts at the same time?
Yes. Topstep accounts on TopstepX can be switched on together with Tradovate and Rithmic accounts from other firms, and one alert trades all of them.
Does my computer need to stay on?
No. Alerts go from TradingView straight to CopyTrade's servers, and each account's stop-loss and take-profits sit at the broker, so they stay in place even if CopyTrade is offline.
What does it cost?
CopyTrade is $35/month for up to 5 accounts or $45/month for unlimited accounts, after a 7-day free trial with no credit card. The ProjectX API subscription is paid separately to ProjectX.
