MT5 trade copier, in the cloud.

The TPcopier MT5 trade copier repeats one MetaTrader account's trades on your other accounts: MT5 to MT5, MT4 to MT5, MT5 to MT4 or MT4 to MT4, across brokers. Both terminals run on our servers, so no PC or VPS has to stay on. Each receiver keeps its own lot rule and symbol names, for $6 a month per account.

What does the cloud trade copier copy?

A trade copier repeats one account's trades on other accounts. You trade on the sender, by hand or with your own EA, and every receiver gets the same trade. Usually this needs both terminals open on one PC or VPS. With the TPcopier cloud trade copier, both terminals run in our cloud instead.

It copies:

  • every open and every close;
  • a partial close, in proportion;
  • stop loss and take profit changes;
  • pending orders, or you can switch them off;
  • the opposite side, if you want trades reversed.

The MT5 trade copier watches the sender account itself, not one window. So when you buy from the MetaTrader app on your phone, that trade reaches the receivers too. In short, it is a trade copier for MT5 and MT4 with nothing to install on your side.

Copier tab of the MT4 to MT5 trade copier with one pipeline from a main MT5 account to a follower

The Copier tab on the MetaTrader 4/5 page: each pipeline runs from a sender to a receiver, here Main MT5 to Follower MT5 with a lot multiplier of 1, a switch and Settings (example workspace).

MT5 to MT5, MT4 to MT5, MT4 to MT4: every direction

The same copier covers every pairing of the two platforms, and the receiver never needs to match the sender:

  • MT5 to MT5 trade copier: the common case today, between two brokers or two accounts at one broker.
  • MT4 to MT5 trade copier: keep trading on MT4 while your receivers move to MT5, at the same broker or another.
  • MT5 to MT4: the other way round, for a receiver that is still on MT4.
  • MT4 to MT4 trade copier: two or more MT4 accounts, with no MT5 involved at all.

Because it copies any symbol the receiver's broker lists, it works as a forex copier for currency pairs and as a MetaTrader trade copier for gold, indices or crypto CFDs alike. What differs between brokers is the symbol name and the lot step, which the next sections cover.

Set up the MT5 trade copier in 5 steps

Have two demo accounts ready, MT4 or MT5, at the same broker or two different ones. For each, note its login number, its main (trading) password and its server.

  1. Open the copier. In the left menu, go to Copier and pick MetaTrader 4/5. Its page has an Accounts tab and a Copier tab.
  2. Add the accounts. Press Add account for the sender first, then each receiver: platform, broker, account number and trading password. The sender can use its investor (read-only) password. Pick the server exactly as your broker's login window spells it.
  3. Let them start. Each card shows the terminal preparing, signing in and switching Algo Trading on, then Running. Allow about a minute, or a bit more for a broker we have not started before.
  4. Draw the pipeline. On the Copier tab, press Connect a sender to a receiver, then pick the sender, the receiver and a lot rule with its value. One pipeline per receiver.
  5. Prove it on demo. Buy 0.01 lots on the sender and check the copy in Copies and account events. Then close the trade and watch the copy close.

MT5 trade copier settings: lots, stops, limits

Each pipeline keeps its own settings, and a change you save applies within seconds. We check every number, and the cloud server checks it a second time.

Four lot modes, with numbers

The Lot value field changes meaning with the mode. In these rows the sender buys 1.00 lot:

Lot modeWhat the value isValue and result
MultiplierA factor of the sender's lot0.5 → 0.50 lots
Fixed lotThe receiver's lot, every time0.20 → 0.20 lots
Balance ratioSender's lot × receiver balance ÷ sender balance × value10,000 and 5,000, value 1 → 0.50 lots
Risk %Share of the receiver's balance lost at the sender's stopSender has no stop → nothing copied

Every result is cut down to a lot size the receiving broker accepts. It also stays inside your smallest and largest lot, which start at 0.01 and 100.

Stops, pending orders and reverse

  • Stops: on by default, so each copy takes the sender's stop loss and take profit and follows every change. Off means copies open bare.
  • Pending orders: also on. Limit and stop orders appear on the receiver and track each edit, fill or cancel.
  • Reverse: off by default. On, it turns buys into sells and swaps the stop with the target, which suits hedging one account against another.

Bounds, filters, hours and protection

  • Open positions: up to 100 copies at once by default; 0 lifts the cap.
  • Slippage: 20 points by default, the furthest a market copy may fill from its price.
  • Daily loss: past the percent you set, no new copies open until tomorrow, while open ones keep following.
  • Symbols and hours: allow some symbols or block some, and copy only inside your hours, closing copies when they end.
  • Equity guard: notify you, stop copying or close everything.

Copying between brokers: symbol mapping

Symbol names decide whether an MT4 to MT5 trade copier works across brokers. Gold may be XAUUSD here and GOLD there, and a suffix can turn EURUSD into EURUSD.c. For every trade, the copier checks the receiver's own symbol list in five passes:

  1. your own pairs on the pipeline, sender's name first, like XAUUSD=GOLD, BTCUSD=BITCOIN;
  2. your prefix and suffix, when they build a name the receiver has;
  3. an exact match;
  4. the same instrument with a broker tag, so EURUSD finds EURUSD.c;
  5. the same instrument under another name, so XAUUSD finds GOLD.

No match means no order, with the reason in the log. The copier never invents a symbol: spot gold never lands on a futures contract, and XAUEUR is never taken for XAUUSD. For example, an MT5 sender at one broker can feed an MT4 receiver at another, where XAUUSD arrives as GOLD at half the lot.

Many receivers and funded accounts

One sender can feed many receivers, each with its own pipeline and lot rule. To the copier, a funded or prop firm account is just another MetaTrader login. Its rules belong to the firm, so check what your firm allows on copy trading first. Then keep that receiver's largest lot and daily loss inside the firm's limits.

How fast is the MT5 trade copier?

We measure speed instead of promising it. On our live copies on 4 October 2026, the copier sent the receiver's order a median 7 ms after it saw the sender's trade. That number covers our part only: from the moment the copier sees the new trade to the moment the receiver's order leaves our server.

After that, the receiver's broker still has to fill the order. In the same measurement, that took about 140 ms, so the broker makes up most of a copy's time. Because both numbers depend on the brokers, every copy's own time is on the website, under Copies and account events.

Rules, limits and common fixes

Rules the MT5 trade copier never breaks

  • One sender per receiver. A receiver copies one sender and is never a sender too, so there are no chains or loops.
  • Late trades skipped. A trade first seen more than five seconds after it opened is not copied, because a late copy is a different trade. Pending orders are exempt: their price travels with them.
  • Never twice. After a restart the copier picks up where it was, so a copied trade never opens again.

Switch a pipeline off and it starts nothing new, yet its open copies keep following the sender until they close. Delete it and copying ends; anything it opened stays on the receiver for you to handle.

Limits

  • The sender and its receivers run on the same cloud server.
  • We need each account's MetaTrader password, because the terminal runs on our servers. MetaTrader's help on signing in to an account explains why an investor (read-only) password cannot trade.
  • Brokers differ in symbols, lot steps and trading hours, so test the pipeline on demo accounts first.
  • The copier copies your trades; it does not choose trades or give trading advice.

MT5 trade copier questions.

More: every cloud copier and the MT4 to MT5 guide.

How the copier works

Can you copy trade on MT5?

Yes. A trade copier repeats one MT5 account's trades on your other MT5 or MT4 accounts. This one runs the sender's and the receivers' terminals in our cloud, so nothing has to stay open on your PC.

Can I copy trades from MT4 to MT5?

Yes. It copies MT4 to MT5, MT5 to MT4 and either one to the same platform, across brokers.

Do I need a VPS for the trade copier?

No. Both the sender and the receivers run on our servers, so your PC can be off.

How fast is the copy?

On our live copies on 4 October 2026, a median 7 ms passed between seeing the sender's trade and sending the receiver's order. The broker's fill then took about 140 ms.

Can each receiver use a different lot size?

Yes: a multiplier, a fixed lot, a risk percent or a balance ratio, each with its own smallest and largest lot.

Can one sender copy to many accounts?

Yes, one pipeline per receiver. A receiver follows only one sender.

Are trades already open on the sender copied?

No. They count as too old, since entering now means a moved price. Waiting pending orders still go across.

Price and trial

Is there a free trade copier?

Free to try, not free for ever. The MT4/MT5 trade copier starts with a 2-day free trial with no card; after that it is $6 a month per account. Test it on demo accounts first.

Is it forex copy trading software?

Yes. It is copy trade software for MT4 and MT5: it copies forex pairs, gold, indices or any other symbol your broker offers, from one of your accounts to others. It is not a marketplace of strategy providers; you pick the sender account yourself.

Is copy trading illegal in the USA?

Copying trades between your own accounts is not illegal in itself, but who may trade for whom, and which products a retail trader may hold, depend on US rules and your broker's licence. This is general information, not legal advice: check with your broker or a lawyer.

How much does the MT5 trade copier cost?

$6 a month per account, cloud terminals included, after a 2-day free trial with no card.
