Copytrade Sentinel MT4

Copy trades between any two MT5 accounts, on any broker, in milliseconds — with a full suite of independent, redundant safety systems built specifically for traders who cannot afford a single mistake.

Whether you're managing multiple prop firm accounts, copying signals to client accounts, or running the same strategy across several brokers, CopyTrade replicates every trade with pinpoint accuracy — while a layered risk-protection engine watches your account in real time and shuts everything down the instant a threshold is breached, before it becomes a violation you can't undo.

Why CopyTrade is different

Most copiers do one thing: copy trades. CopyTrade does that flawlessly — and then goes much further, because the people who built it were personally on the line for every dollar of risk it manages. Every protection feature below exists because a real trading scenario demanded it.

• Built for Hedging-mode accounts, the standard for most brokers and prop firms
• No bridge, no VPS-to-VPS socket, no third-party server — a lightweight, file-based signal protocol that works locally or across any number of remote terminals sharing the same Windows/VPS environment
• Survives everything: EA restarts, recompiles, terminal reboots, even VPS reboots — every counter, every cooldown, every accumulated risk window picks up exactly where it left off, down to the second
• Independently verified logic: every risk-protection layer was reviewed line-by-line, stress-tested against real trading incidents, and corrected based on live evidence — not theory

Core Copying Engine

• Master → Slave architecture: one account signals, unlimited slave accounts replicate — each with its own independent configuration
• Multiple slaves per master: run as many slave terminals as you need from a single master, each identified by its own Slave ID
• Five lot-sizing modes to fit any use case:
  • Fixed — always the same lot size
  • Same as Master — mirror the exact volume
  • Multiplier — scale the master's volume up or down
  • % Risk — automatically size the position so the stop-loss distance risks a fixed percentage of balance
  • Dollar Amount — automatically size the position so the stop-loss distance risks a fixed dollar amount, regardless of symbol or account size
• Reverse Trade mode: mirror the master in the opposite direction — for hedging strategies or "straw man" account structures
• Full SL/TP replication, with configurable point-based refinement to compensate for spread/price differences between master and slave brokers
• Proportional partial closes: if the master closes 25% of a position, the slave closes exactly 25% of its own volume — regardless of how different the lot sizes are between accounts
• Pending order support: opens, modifies, and cancellations replicate automatically
• Automatic symbol mapping: handles broker suffix differences (e.g. XAUUSD-ECN → XAUUSD , EURUSD.a → EURUSD ) without any manual configuration — with a manual override list for exotic cases (indices, custom tickers)
• Symbol blocklist: permanently exclude specific instruments from ever being copied to a given slave
• Configurable slippage tolerance, separate for normal trading vs. emergency closes (see below)
• Built-in reconciliation safety net: the master continuously broadcasts its live position list; if a slave position vanishes for any reason outside the normal signal flow (manual intervention, broker-side stop-out, connection hiccup), the copier detects it, registers the result correctly, and keeps every risk counter accurate

Risk Protection Suite — the reason serious traders choose CopyTrade

This is the part that took the longest to build, and the part that matters most. Every mechanism below runs independently, in real time, and can be combined for true defense-in-depth.

🛑 Daily Loss Limit

Set a maximum dollar loss per calendar day. Once hit, all trading stops for the rest of the day — automatically, with the baseline resetting cleanly at day rollover.

🛑 Equity Protection

An absolute equity floor, completely independent from every other mechanism in the EA. If your account equity drops below your chosen threshold, the EA closes everything and removes itself — the ultimate, simplest backstop, deliberately kept separate from the more complex risk logic so a bug anywhere else can never take this one down with it.

🛑 PropFirm 1% Risk Window

Purpose-built to match how leading prop firms (including FTMO) actually define and enforce combined risk per "trade idea" — verified in direct correspondence with FTMO support and confirmed in writing. Monitors the net result (realized P/L + live floating P/L, gains offsetting losses) across a rolling time window, and shuts everything down the instant that combined risk crosses your configured amount. Fully persistent across restarts — your accumulated risk history is never silently lost.

🛑 Loss-Only Window

A stricter, classic-style risk window: accumulates gross losses within a rolling window, with no netting against winning trades. Runs completely in parallel to the PropFirm window, for traders who want a harder, more conservative ceiling regardless of how well other positions are performing.

🛑 Five Independent Safety Traps

The standout feature. Five separate, independently-coded floating P/L checks, each written as its own self-contained function with no shared code between them. If your account's combined floating loss breaches your chosen threshold, any one of the five will catch it and close everything immediately — true redundancy against the one thing every other risk tool on the market ignores: the possibility that the risk-management code itself has a bug. A single point of failure is not an option when your prop firm account is on the line.

⚡ Emergency Close with Extended Slippage Tolerance

Emergency closes use a separately configurable, wider slippage tolerance than normal trading — because in a fast-moving or volatile market, getting the position closed matters infinitely more than getting it closed at the "perfect" price. Normal trading keeps your tight, precise slippage setting untouched.

✅ Close Verification with Automatic Retry

Every emergency close is sent asynchronously for speed, then actively verified. If any position fails to close on the first attempt, the EA automatically retries — with a final synchronous attempt as a last resort — and logs a clear warning if manual intervention is ever needed. Nothing closes and gets forgotten about.

⏸ General Cooldown After a Loss

Automatically pause new trade copying for a configurable period after any losing trade — including losses triggered by the emergency protections above, not just normal signal-driven closes.

🔢 Max Simultaneous Trades

Cap how many positions the slave can hold open at once, independent of what the master is doing.

Built for Reliability, Not Just Features

• Duplicate-signal protection: an additional, file-based safeguard ensures that even after an EA restart combined with an unusual signal-numbering reset on the master side, a signal already processed can never be replayed and duplicated
• On-chart live dashboard: see your cooldown status, every risk window's live accumulated value, block countdowns, and daily P/L at a glance — no digging through logs
• Verbose logging mode: full diagnostic detail for testing and troubleshooting, toggle off for clean production logs
• VPS-ready: designed from the ground up to run unattended, 24/5, with every critical state variable surviving disconnections and restarts

Who This Is For

• Prop firm traders running multiple funded/evaluation accounts who need every account to mirror the master with mathematically verified, FTMO-aligned risk controls
• Signal providers and account managers replicating a strategy across multiple client accounts with different brokers, balances, and lot-sizing needs
• Multi-broker traders who want the same edge running everywhere, without manually re-entering every trade
• Anyone who has ever lost an account to a single bad tick, a missed stop-loss, or a risk rule they didn't know they'd broken — and never wants that to happen again

A Note on Risk

Trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. No risk-management tool, including the safeguards described above, can guarantee protection against every possible market condition, execution issue, or broker-side event — including price gaps, slippage beyond configured tolerances, or connectivity loss. Past performance and backtest results are not indicative of future results. Always test thoroughly on a demo account before deploying on a live or funded account, and never risk capital you cannot afford to lose.
