What that adds up to
Headline prices are hard to compare because they are charged for different things. Most copiers price per connection, and a connection is one broker login — three accounts at one prop firm is one connection, an account at a second firm is a second one. The same trader therefore pays different amounts depending on how many firms they are spread across, not how many accounts they run.
A leader plus five followers across two prop firms, over 24 months. Prices as published by each vendor in October 2026.
Tradovate's own Group Trade is free but cannot copy across two firms. ETP is priced in euros (€244) and left out of the bars; it is in the table below.
At one, two or three firms
One trader below — a leader plus five followers — with only the number of prop firm logins changing. Prices as published by each vendor in October 2026.
| Total cost over 24 months | All at one firm | Two firms | Three firms |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tradovate Group Trade | Free | Not possible | Not possible |
| Syncopy | $149 | $149 | $149 |
| Affordable Indicators TradeCopier | $195 | $195 | $195 |
| ETP (Platformless) | €197 | €244 | €291 |
| Copilink Standalone | $693 | $693 | $693 |
| TradeDupe | $720 | $720 | $1,440 |
| Tradecopia | $1,200 | $1,200 | $1,200 |
| Tradesyncer | $1,176 | $1,176 | $2,376 |
Three of these are bought once — Syncopy, Affordable Indicators and ETP — so the figure shown is the whole cost, and it does not grow in year three. The rest are subscriptions: the figure is twenty-four monthly payments, and the meter keeps running after that.
The row worth reading first is the top one. If all your accounts sit at one prop firm and you do not need mobile or ATM strategies, Tradovate’s own Group Trade does this for nothing and none of the rest is worth paying for, this one included. The case for buying anything begins at the second login.
Twenty-four months at the published monthly rate; annual or quarterly billing reduces several of these materially. Tradesyncer’s $49 plan covers two connections and its $99 plan four, which is why the third firm moves that row. ETP is in euros excluding VAT and includes one connection, each additional one at €47. Where a vendor publishes no connection-based pricing the flat plan price is shown, so that figure is a floor rather than a ceiling. Full breakdown and assumptions on the alternatives comparison.
That $149 is the whole number
Nothing per account, nothing per connection, nothing in year two. Join the waitlist and it is $99 instead, fixed before public launch. Syncopy is in private testing, so there is nothing to download yet — the waitlist is how you hear when there is.
What the price covers
One leader, as many followers as your firms allow
The licence does not cap the number of accounts you copy to.
A multiplier per follower
One contract on the leader can be one, two or five on a given follower.
Risk rules per account
A daily loss cap and a daily profit target on each account separately, so one account stopping does not stop the rest.
A trading lockout with a timer
For the days when the sensible thing is to stop.
Mini and micro contracts mapped automatically
An NQ leader can drive MNQ followers, and the other way round.
A journal that fills itself
Every fill, fee and R-multiple recorded as you trade, with the calendar and distribution views built on it.
Everything on your own machine
No cloud service in the execution path, no account data leaving your computer.
What you don’t pay extra for
Copier pricing is usually assembled from things that sound small until you add them up, and most of them are charged for what is simply a normal multi-account setup. None of these cost anything here:
- Extra logins. Copiers are commonly priced per “connection”, and a connection is one broker login. Accounts at a second prop firm mean a second connection — sometimes a surcharge, sometimes a jump to the next plan. Here a login is a login.
- Extra machines. No per-machine licence, and no charge for running it on the laptop as well as the desk.
- Credits. Some one-time licences start metering once copying crosses machines. Nothing here is metered.
- Risk controls. Per-account loss caps and lockouts are in the price, not behind a higher tier.
- Advertising. There is none in the app, and nothing to buy to remove it.
- Accounts. No cap, so adding one never triggers an upgrade.
For scale: as of October 2026 the lowest monthly price we have found for a futures copier is $28.88. It passes this one-time price in month six, and it does not stop there.
Why there are no tiers
The obvious way to sell this would be a cheap plan capped at five accounts and a dearer one that unlocks more. It was the plan for a while. The problem is who that cap hits: Apex Trader Funding permits up to 20 accounts and Phidias 15, so the trader who most needs a copier is exactly the one who runs into the ceiling.
Charging more for a number in a settings field is not a better product. So there is one paid licence, and the only limits that apply to it are the ones your prop firms set — which is what the prop firm rules matrix is for.
A free version, planned
It is limited by account count, which is what the other column argues against. The difference is what the limit is for: a free entry point that stops at two is a way in, and the licence above it has no cap at all.
- Two accounts — one leader, one follower.
- Across two different prop firms if that is how you trade. Tradovate's own Group Trade works within a single brokerage login only, so it cannot do this at any price.
- Everything else included — per-account daily loss caps, bracket mirroring, the journal.
- An open beta first, and free permanently after that. “Beta” describes how finished it is, not how long it is free.
It does not exist yet. Syncopy is in private testing and there is nothing to download, free or paid. The waitlist is how you hear when that changes, and joining also holds the full licence at $99.
Updates
Your licence includes every update to Syncopy for Tradovate, with no renewal date. That covers fixes, newly confirmed firms and the planned TopstepX connection.
If we add other platforms and brokers later, we don't plan to charge existing customers for them, but that isn't a promise yet. You'll never lose what you bought.
Thirty days to change your mind
Full refund within thirty days, no reason required and no questions asked. Trading software you cannot try against your own accounts and your own habits is a bad deal, and a fortnight is not long enough to know. A month is.
Frequently asked
How much does Syncopy cost?
$149, paid once. That covers every feature, with no cap on the number of follower accounts and no subscription. Anyone who joins the waitlist before the public launch pays $99 instead.
Is there a subscription?
No. Syncopy is a one-time purchase. There is no monthly fee, no per-account fee, and no feature that requires a higher plan.
Will there be a free version of Syncopy?
A free version is planned but does not exist yet: Syncopy is in private testing and there is nothing to download, free or paid. The plan is two accounts — one leader and one follower — which may sit at two different prop firms, with everything else included, including per-account daily loss caps and the journal. Cross-firm is the part Tradovate's own free Group Trade cannot do at any price, because it works within a single brokerage login only. It launches as an open beta and stays free afterwards: “beta” describes how finished it is, not how long it is free. The paid licence at $149 has no account limit. The waitlist is how you hear when either becomes available.
Is there a limit on how many accounts I can copy to?
Not in the licence. One leader account drives your other accounts, and the licence does not cap how many followers you add. The real limits are the ones your prop firms set: Apex Trader Funding allows up to 20 accounts, Phidias 15, and several firms allow fewer.
How many computers can I install Syncopy on?
As many of your own as you like. The licence is tied to you, not to a machine: buy a new laptop and you install Syncopy and paste the same key. There is nothing to deactivate and no activation limit to run into. One thing that is not a licence rule but a technical one: do not run two copies at the same time against the same Tradovate login, because a second session on one login interferes with the market-data connection. Install it anywhere — run one copy per broker login.
What does the waitlist price mean?
Anyone on the waitlist before Syncopy goes on public sale pays $99 instead of $149. There is no cap on how many people that applies to and no countdown: the price simply changes at public launch.
Is the $99 capped to a number of buyers?
No. Everyone on the waitlist before public launch pays $99. The price changes at launch, not after a quota runs out.
What currency is that?
US dollars.
Do updates cost extra?
No. Every update to Syncopy for Tradovate is included, with no renewal date, including the planned TopstepX connection. If we add other platforms and brokers later, we don't plan to charge existing customers for them, but that isn't a promise yet.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. Thirty days, full refund, no reason required. Trading software you cannot try in your own setup is a bad deal, so the guarantee covers a full month of real use.
Can I buy Syncopy today?
Not yet. Syncopy is pre-launch and the waitlist is where you hear when it opens. Joining also locks in the $99 price.
One waitlist
Whether you want the free version or the full licence, it is the same waitlist. If you buy the full licence, being on it before public launch makes it $99 instead of $149. No marketing, no spam, just the launch ping.
