TradeLocker trade copier

HydraSync FX copies trades to and from TradeLocker accounts automatically. A TradeLocker account can receive copies from MT4, MT5, cTrader, DXtrade, MatchTrader or a Telegram signal channel, and it can be the source for any of them. Copying runs on our servers, so your computer can be off.

How it connects

HydraSync connects to TradeLocker through its API, with the same email, password and server you use to log in to TradeLocker. Nothing to install. The broker must allow API access for your account: some prop firms switch it off, and the connection test on the Accounts page shows it straight away.

What is copied

• New BUY and SELL positions, with stop loss and take profit
• Stop loss and take profit changes from the source
• Closes and partial closes, on the exact position the copy opened
• Close all, reversed copies, live balance and equity

As a source, a TradeLocker account passes on its new positions, closes, partial closes and stop loss / take profit changes.

Lot size and protection

Each link chooses how lots are sized: exact, fixed, multiplier, proportional, risk % or amount per trade, or risk multiplier. Add lot caps, filters, entry guards (HydraSync reads the TradeLocker quote before opening and skips a copy whose price has moved too far), drawdown limits, a news filter and a kill switch. See Copy settings.

Set it up

1. Create an account (14-day free trial, no card).
2. Add the TradeLocker account on the Accounts page with its login details and server.
3. Run the connection test.
4. Create a copy link from your source and test with a small trade on a demo account.

Good to know

• TradeLocker limits how many requests an account can make per second. HydraSync paces its calls and retries when the limit is hit.
• If the exact symbol is not listed, HydraSync uses the plain instrument or its only suffixed variant (EURUSD to EURUSD.raw).
• A password changed at the broker is updated with the pencil on the account, without losing its links.
• Prop firm rules come first: see Prop firms.

FAQ

Can I copy MT5 to TradeLocker?

Yes, and MT4 too. The MetaTrader side uses the HydraSync EA; the TradeLocker side runs on our servers.

Can I copy one TradeLocker account to several prop firm accounts?

Yes. A source can feed several destinations, each with its own lot mode and limits, if each firm's rules allow it.

Do I need to keep a browser or the TradeLocker app open?

No. HydraSync talks to TradeLocker directly.

Is my password stored?

It is stored encrypted, used only to connect to your broker, and never shown again in the app.
