More traders are now running multiple prop firm accounts at the same time. ![]()
Some run 3 to 5 accounts.
Others run 10 or more evaluation or funded accounts.
Most of these accounts connect through Tradovate, which means the execution layer becomes the real bottleneck.
Common problems traders run into:
• entering the same trade across many accounts manually
• keeping position size consistent across accounts
• managing bracket orders across accounts
• dealing with prop firm limits like max contracts
• avoiding rejected orders when copying trades
• running strategies or alerts automatically
Because prop firms are separate companies, accounts cannot be grouped directly inside Tradovate. This forces traders to manage execution externally.
A workflow that many traders are starting to use is a master account execution model.
The idea is simple.
You execute trades once from a lead account, and those trades are copied to all other accounts automatically.
This solves several problems at once:
• execution speed stays consistent
• position sizing stays synchronized
• bracket orders can be applied to every account
• risk rules can be enforced per account
Another layer traders increasingly use is automation from TradingView alerts.
For example:
• a TradingView strategy alert triggers an order
• the order executes in a lead account
• the trade is copied across multiple Tradovate prop firm accounts
This removes manual execution completely.
Some traders also apply additional controls such as:
• per account max contract limits
• order quantity multipliers
• account level risk management
• automated drawdown protection
A platform I have been working with recently is Proteryx, which focuses specifically on this type of multi account workflow.
It includes:
• a trading desk to execute and manage multiple Tradovate accounts
• copy trading across prop firm accounts
• TradingView automation through alerts
• order size adjustment rules
• account level risk controls
• support for multiple Tradovate prop firm connections
The interesting part is that it allows traders to combine manual trading, automation, and copy trading in one place, which simplifies the workflow quite a bit when running several prop firm accounts.
Curious how others here are handling this.
Are you currently:
• trading each prop firm account manually
• using a trade copier
• running TradingView automation
• managing accounts through external tools
Or are you still entering trades separately across accounts?
