DXtrade to TradeLocker Trade Copier
Copy a DXtrade account onto TradeLocker, with stops set at entry and account-level protection covering the rest.
ConnectX Copy reproduces DXtrade trades on TradeLocker. Both are broker-branded platforms common at funded-account providers, so this normally links two firm accounts rather than a firm account and a retail one.
The two ends have different capabilities, and it is worth knowing which way round. Your DXtrade master can move a stop mid-trade; the TradeLocker copy cannot. So the master keeps its full stop-management behaviour while the destination holds whatever level it opened with — and account-level protection covers the gap.
Sizing crosses a unit boundary here too: DXtrade counts in units, TradeLocker in lots, and the conversion happens before your sizing rule is applied rather than after.
How DXtrade → TradeLocker copying works
DXtrade is connected
Add the master with its login, account code and broker URL.
TradeLocker is connected
Add each destination with its email, password and environment.
Units become lots
The DXtrade quantity is converted using the instrument’s contract size before sizing is applied.
TradeLocker executes
The position opens with its stop and target; closes follow the master.
What ConnectX Copy can copy on this pair
Including what it cannot. The limits are as useful as the features when you are choosing which account should lead.
- Entry and close copying
- Stop loss and take profit at entry
- Partial close
- Unit-to-lot conversion
- Multiple TradeLocker destinations
- Per-destination sizing
- Symbol mapping
- Stop changes after entryTradeLocker has no order-modify path, so a stop stays at its entry level.
Risk and lot-sizing controls
Equity protection is the primary control on this pairing, not the stop. Because a TradeLocker stop is fixed once placed, a threshold on the account’s own equity is what actually reacts as a trade develops.
A daily reset lines that up with how most firms measure a loss limit, so the threshold means the same thing each morning.
Balance and equity scaling handle two firm accounts sitting at different sizes or different phases.
Fixed master balance sizing keeps the copy steady when the DXtrade account is reset or paid out.
Direction and lot-range filters so the destination receives only what it should.
Lot floors and ceilings clamped to the TradeLocker account’s limits.
Symbol mapping
DXtrade and TradeLocker both use broker-specific instrument names, so mapping is resolved before the order is placed.
Explicit mappings handle indices and metals.
The unit-to-lot conversion uses the contract size from the DXtrade instrument or its asset class.
Platform-specific behaviour
Both sides are reconciled over REST on a short cycle rather than push streams, so copies land within seconds.
Stops are fixed once placed on TradeLocker, so mid-trade risk changes belong to equity protection.

- 04Set equity protection thresholds and the daily reset if applicable.
- 05Place a small trade and confirm what arrives.
Common use cases
Adding a TradeLocker evaluation to an existing DXtrade account
The account you already trade keeps leading; the new evaluation simply follows.
Letting the master manage stops for both
Your DXtrade stop can trail; the TradeLocker copy is covered by its own equity threshold instead.
Running two firms without doubling the work
One set of decisions reaches both accounts at their own sizes.

DXtrade → TradeLocker questions
Can I trail a stop on this pairing?
On the DXtrade master, yes — its protection order can be replaced at a new level. The TradeLocker copy keeps the stop it opened with, so use an equity threshold on that account for risk that needs to change mid-trade.
Why does the size look different on each platform?
DXtrade counts in units and TradeLocker in lots. The quantity is converted using the instrument’s contract size before your sizing rule runs, so the exposure lines up even though the numbers do not.
What protects the TradeLocker account if the trade moves against it?
Equity protection on that account, with an optional daily reset. It watches the destination’s own equity rather than the master’s.
Do closes always follow?
Yes. When the DXtrade position closes, in whole or in part, the TradeLocker copy follows on the next reconciliation.
Is copying between two funded accounts permitted?
Both firms decide that independently. Read each agreement before linking them.
