One trade. Every account.
Same execution window.
Run your strategy on one machine. Mirror it to every NinjaTrader 8 account you invite — your other rigs, your trading group, a separate prop account — in real time, through our 5ms Chicago colocation relay with priority signal handling. No public marketplace, no third-party broker. Just a private broadcast layer that fires when you fire.
NinjaTrader doesn't ship a real broadcast layer
If you want to run the same setup on three machines or share entries with a trusted group, the native options are: run the strategy on every machine (sync drift, reconnect drift, settings drift), or write your own webhook fan-out and hope your VPS doesn't bottleneck. Signal Share solves it at the protocol layer. Your CrossTrade Elite account becomes the source of truth. Every invited recipient receives the trade through a priority-handled relay running in Chicago — same instrument, same direction, same quantity, in the same millisecond window.
What Signal Share actually does
Six things every other "signal copier" gets wrong, and what we built instead.
5ms Chicago colocation relay
Sender alert lands in our Chicago region. Internal hop to the broadcast bus is sub-10ms in the typical case. We pin our broadcast workers to the same datacenter as our brokerage egress so the relay never fights the public internet.
SPEEDPriority signal handling
Elite signals jump the queue. When the platform is under load, Signal Share traffic is dispatched ahead of standard webhook traffic. It is the difference between landing on the bar you wanted and arriving two ticks late.
ELITEUnlimited recipients
Invite as many CrossTrade accounts as you need. Each recipient runs their own NT8 add-on, their own accounts, their own brokers. Add or remove recipients without restarting anything. There is no "leader" account constraint — your sender keeps working when recipients drop off.
SCALEPer-recipient sender controls
Pause an individual recipient, throttle their broadcast share, or revoke access entirely from the sender side. You stay in control of who is receiving and what they receive without coordinating with each recipient.
CONTROLTwo-sided audit logs
Senders see every broadcast: timestamp, recipient list, payload, success or fail per recipient. Recipients see every received signal with the same detail. No "I never got it" arguments — both sides have the receipt.
VISIBILITYPrivate, invite-only
No public discovery. No "follow this trader" storefront. Recipients have to accept your invitation from inside their CrossTrade dashboard before they can receive. The trust model is yours, not ours.
TRUSTHow Signal Share works
Six steps. No webhook fan-out to configure, no leader-follower locked accounts.
Enable on Elite
Turn on Signal Share inside your CrossTrade dashboard. Sender side requires the Elite plan.
Invite recipients
Send invitations by CrossTrade username or email. Recipients can be on any paid plan.
Recipient accepts
Each invitee approves the link from their own dashboard. They map your signals to their NT8 accounts.
Sender fires
Your TradingView strategy, webhook, or manual entry triggers as it normally would.
Broadcast relays
Signal Share fan-outs the trade through Chicago. Each recipient receives the same payload, in the same window.
Audit both sides
Every send and every receive is logged with timestamp, payload, and outcome. Open the log any time.
Built for the people who actually need it
Signal Share isn't trying to be everything. It exists for three very specific use cases, in this order.
You, on every machine you own
Run a strategy on one rig. Mirror it to your home machine, your office machine, your prop firm evaluation, your funded account. Same trade, same window, no manual replication and no state drift between machines.
A small group you already trade with
Five friends, three desks, one mentor — whatever the shape is, Signal Share lets the source of an edge broadcast cleanly to the rest. Everyone owns their execution; the source owns the timing. Distribute to third parties commercially and you may be subject to regulatory requirements — see the disclaimer below.
The same edge across different brokers
Your CrossTrade Elite sender broadcasts once. Each recipient has their own NT8 add-on connected to their own broker. You don't have to manage broker credentials for anyone but yourself, and recipients don't have to expose anything to you.
What Signal Share is not
It is not a paid-signal marketplace. There is no public discovery, no follower count, no ratings, no built-in monetization. We're not in the business of letting strangers buy other strangers' signals — the platform doesn't have the surface area for it and we don't want it to.
If you choose to distribute signals to people you don't already know, you may be subject to regulatory registration requirements (commodity trading advisor, investment advisor, or similar) depending on your jurisdiction. CrossTrade does not provide legal advice and does not assess your obligations on your behalf. Read the Signal Share section of our Trading Disclaimer before deciding.
Honest limitations
The constraints you'll actually run into.
- Recipients own execution risk. Signal Share guarantees timely delivery of the signal. It cannot guarantee identical fills on the recipient's side — broker latency, recipient network quality, NT8 connection state, and account-specific constraints (margin, position limits, instrument mappings) all live outside the broadcast layer.
- Both ends need NT8 + the XT Add-On. The sender publishes from CrossTrade; every recipient runs the CrossTrade NT8 Add-On against their own NinjaTrader 8 install. If the recipient's NT8 is offline or disconnected, their leg of the broadcast won't fill.
- Sender requires Elite. Recipients can be on any paid plan. The 5ms relay and the multi-recipient fan-out are sender-side benefits of Elite pricing. Recipients only need an active paid CrossTrade subscription.
- Prop firm rules apply. Many prop firms prohibit copied or externally-routed signals regardless of how clean the transport is. Using Signal Share into a prop account may violate that firm's terms. See our Trading Disclaimer for the full breakdown.
- Signals are not advice. CrossTrade is a transmission tool. We do not review, validate, or rank the content of signals. Recipients are solely responsible for evaluating any signal before acting on it.
