Trade Copier Ultimate v6.3 — Setup Guide

This guide is written to help you get Trade Copier Ultimate running as quickly and safely as possible. The goal is simple: connect your source, test it on demo, and confirm one clean trade before using any advanced features.

Important: Always start on a demo account first. Trade Copier Ultimate can open, modify, and close trades automatically depending on your settings.

Before You Start

Trade Copier Ultimate can work in 3 main ways:

  • Telegram Bot API — best when you can add a bot to the Telegram group or channel.
  • Bridge Mode — best for private Telegram channels, private bot chats, Discord-compatible workflows, and advanced routing.
  • Local Copier — best for copying trades between MT5 terminals on the same PC or VPS.

If you are not sure which mode to use:

  • Use Telegram Bot API for normal Telegram setups where bot access is possible.
  • Use Bridge Mode for private channels, restricted sources, private bot chats, or multi-source routing.

  • Use Local Copier for MT5-to-MT5 copying on the same machine.

Step 1 — Attach the EA

  1. Open MetaTrader 5.

These URLs are required for:

Choose one of these modes or all if you going to use all:

  • Telegram Bot API — use this when your bot can access the signal source.
  • Bridge Mode — use this for private Telegram channels, private bot chats, Discord-compatible workflows, or multi-source routing.

  1. Open Telegram.
  2. Search for @BotFather.
  3. Create a new bot or use an existing one.
  4. Copy the Bot Token.




You also need the Chat ID of the group, channel, or chat you want the EA to read, you can use the @GetMyChatID_Bot for find your chat id.

Step 5A — Add the Bot to the Signal Source

  1. Add your bot to the Telegram group or channel.
  2. Make sure the bot has the permissions it needs.
  3. Send at least one message in that source so the bot can detect it.

  2. Enable Telegram Bot API.

  2. Click ARM.
  3. Send one test signal from your Telegram source.
  4. Confirm the EA receives and executes it on demo.







Bridge Mode Setup

When to Use Bridge Mode

Bridge Mode is the best choice when:

  • your Telegram source is private
  • you cannot add a bot to the source
  • you want to read private bot chats such as @GmailBot
  • you want Discord-compatible workflows
  • you want one PC to route multiple sources to multiple MT5 terminals

Step 4B — Install and Open Bridge

  1. Download and open Navigator Command Center Bridge.
  2. Keep Bridge and MetaTrader 5 on the same PC or VPS.

Windows SmartScreen Warning

On some PCs or VPS setups, Windows may show a “Windows protected your PC” SmartScreen warning the first time you open Bridge. This happens because the app is not yet widely recognised by Microsoft SmartScreen. It does not mean the app is infected.

If you see this screen:

  1. Click More info.
  2. Then click Run anyway.





After that, Bridge should open normally.

Important: Only do this if you downloaded the Bridge from the official link in this guide or from my official product page / contact links.

Step 5B — Connect Your Telegram Account to Bridge

  1. Open the Bridge Telegram Setup page.
  2. Enter your API ID.
  3. Enter your API Hash.
  4. Enter your Phone Number.
  5. Click Add Telegram / Login.
  6. Enter the Telegram confirmation code when prompted.
  7. If your Telegram account uses 2FA, enter that password too.



Step 6B — Select the Telegram Sources

  2. Click Fetch Groups.
  3. Tick the channels, groups, or private bot chats you want Bridge to read.
  4. Click Save Assignment.




Step 7B — Make MT5 Appear in Bridge

  1. Go back to the EA Source tab.
  2. Enable Bridge Mode.
  3. Make sure the Bridge Port matches the Bridge app.
  4. Now click Start Bridge inside the Bridge app.
  5. Wait a few seconds.
  6. Open the Bridge MT5 Accounts page.
  7. Your MT5 terminal should now appear there automatically.





If the MT5 account does not appear, check these first:

  • Bridge Mode is enabled in the EA
  • Bridge is running
  • The Bridge port matches in both the EA and Bridge app
  • http://127.0.0.1 was added to MT5 WebRequest settings


    If everything is correct, the EA should confirm the Bridge connection.


    Step 8B — ARM and Test

    1. Click ARM in the EA.
    2. Send one test signal through the Bridge source.
    3. Confirm the EA receives and executes it on demo.

    Local Copier Setup

    Step 4C — Set the Master Terminal

    1. On the first MT5 terminal, attach the EA.
    2. Set CopierMode = MASTER.
    3. Choose the copier file name.

    Step 5C — Set the Slave Terminal

    1. On the second MT5 terminal, attach the EA.
    2. Set CopierMode = SLAVE.
    3. Use the exact same copier file name as the Master.

    Step 6C — Test the Copy

    1. Open one small test trade on the Master.
    2. Confirm the Slave copies it.
    3. Then test close, SL/TP update, and partial behaviour on demo.




    First Test Signal

    For your first test, use one simple signal on a demo account.

    Example:

    BUY XAUUSD SL 3300 TP 3350

    Once that works correctly, you can move on to testing:


    Step 4 — Choose Your Lot Mode

    Before you arm the EA, decide how trade size should be calculated. This is one of the most important settings in the whole setup.

    Trade Copier Ultimate supports these common lot modes:

    • Fixed Lot — uses one fixed lot size for every trade. Best for first-time setup and simple demo testing.
    • Multiplier — multiplies the source lot by your selected factor.
    • Risk Percent — calculates lot size from your account balance and stop-loss distance.
    • Per-Symbol Lots — assigns different fixed lot sizes to selected symbols such as EURUSD, GBPUSD, XAUUSD, BTCUSD, or broker-specific symbols.

    Recommended for your first demo test:

    • Use Fixed Lot
    • Start with a small value such as 0.01

    Important notes:

    • If you use Risk Percent, the signal should include a valid stop loss so the EA can calculate the correct lot size.
    • If you use Per-Symbol Lots, listed symbols use their assigned lot and all other symbols continue using the global lot mode.
    • If you are not sure which lot mode to use, start with Fixed Lot on demo first.


    If It Does Not Work

    Check these first:

    • Is the EA still DISARMED?
    • Is AutoTrading enabled in MT5?
    • Did you add the correct WebRequest URLs?
    • Is the correct source mode enabled?
    • Is the token, chat ID, or Bridge port correct?
    • Is the symbol available in your broker’s Market Watch?
    • Is the signal being blocked by spread, cooldown, duplicate filter, or another safety filter?

    Important Safety Notes

    • Trade Copier Ultimate can open, modify, and close trades automatically depending on your settings.
    • Always start on a demo account.
    • Test one source at a time before enabling advanced features.
    • Confirm one simple signal works correctly before testing pending orders, multi-TP, or advanced management.
