CrossTrade routes a TradingView alert, a leader account's fill copied out
to its followers, or an Account Manager daily profit target to
NinjaTrader 8 or Tradovate, typically executing in about 30 milliseconds.
Connect TradingView to NinjaTrader
CrossTrade users send hundreds of thousands of TradingView webhooks every day
CrossTrade runs the same automation stack on both NinjaTrader-native platforms, and both are included on every plan. Run one, or link both and trade them side by side from a single dashboard.

The two tools built for traders running more than one account: set profit targets, loss limits, and trailing thresholds on each, then mirror trades across all of them. Both work on NinjaTrader 8 and Tradovate.
Coming Friday, November 13Sneak peek: Account Manager 2.0Rebuilt for prop traders. Opens as an opt-in beta. Click to see what is inside.
The Account Manager has been rebuilt around the way prop traders work, with evaluations, funded accounts and practice accounts side by side, on NinjaTrader and Tradovate. It opens Friday, November 13 as an opt-in beta, so you choose when to switch, and you can switch back any time.
Every account at a glanceEach account becomes a card: its balance between the fail line and the profit target, the room today allows, trading days and consistency as gauges, and an EVAL, FUNDED or PRACTICE badge. Accounts that need attention sort first.History, not just todayA Performance tab goes back up to 60 sessions: running P&L with today live on the end, green days, best and worst day, and a bar for every session. Evaluation and funded accounts get a version built around the attempt, with a log for fees and payouts.
Add Monitor also starts from your firm's plan: pick the firm and the account size and CrossTrade fills in a starting set of rules for you to check against your firm's dashboard. Once an evaluation or funded account is set up, Across firms and Costs & payouts appear under your accounts. The switch lands on the Updates page on Friday, November 13.

Does CrossTrade work on Tradovate or NinjaTrader web?
CrossTrade connects directly to Tradovate in the cloud, with no desktop add-on or VPS. Standard includes webhook automation; Pro adds the trade copier, Account Manager and REST API; Elite adds MCP access for AI clients. See the Tradovate hub and plan comparison. The separate NinjaTrader integration connects to NinjaTrader 8 desktop, not NinjaTrader web.
Can I copy Tradovate prop accounts with my computer off?
Yes. The CrossTrade Tradovate trade copier runs in the cloud. Execution mode copies fills from manual or TradingView-native trades; Order mode mirrors working orders and linked brackets. Signal mode copies commands sent through CrossTrade. Pro includes unlimited followers for $49/month. Same-environment pairs under one Tradovate login are the validated setup; cross-login and cross-environment pairs remain under validation. Check your firmβs current copying rules.
Can CrossTrade enforce my prop firm daily loss limit and trailing drawdown?
Yes. The Account Manager lets you set max daily loss, max daily profit, and trailing drawdown thresholds independently for each account. When a threshold is reached, CrossTrade flattens open positions and locks the account so no further orders go through. You can also schedule end-of-day flattening so nothing is held past your firm’s cutoff. It works on both NinjaTrader and Tradovate.
Does CrossTrade work with popular prop firms?
CrossTrade supports eligible accounts connected through NinjaTrader 8 or linked directly through Tradovate. Platform compatibility and permission to automate or copy trades are separate questions. Our prop firm hub links to firm-specific rules and account details. Match the firm, program stage and connection you actually use before configuring followers.
CrossTrade connects the parts of a trading operation that otherwise live in separate tools. Start with the job you need to solve, then add copying, account controls and review without rebuilding the connection.
Turn signals into orders
Use webhook automation for TradingView alerts. Use the REST API when your own application should read account state and submit requests. NT8 runs through the desktop add-on; linked Tradovate accounts use a direct cloud route.
Manage multiple accounts
Use a trade copier to follow a leader with each followerβs sizing. Add Account Manager monitors for account-level thresholds and Tandem Mode when copying should stop with a monitor. Those controls are different from a stop on one trade.
Review what actually happened
The trading journal matches fills into trades for review. API and MCP access can inspect supported account and order data. A chart signal, an accepted request and a broker fill are separate events; keep that distinction throughout your workflow.
