Tradovate support is in alpha

The integration is live, but it is new and some rough edges are expected. Running the alpha means helping us find them. If an order behaves unexpectedly, note the Order ID from Alert History and tell support, and we will keep expanding what it can do.

What works today

Here is what the Tradovate alpha covers today.

☁

Cloud connection

Authorize once from My Account, Brokers tab. CrossTrade holds only a refresh token, never your password, and the link runs entirely in the cloud. Your computer can be off.

⚡

Webhook automation

Add destination=tradovate; to your alert and the webhook order routes to your linked Tradovate account, using the command syntax you already use.

🏦

Prop-firm friendly

Apex, Topstep, and other Tradovate-based funded firms link through Link Demo. Funded and evaluation accounts are Tradovate Demo accounts, and CrossTrade handles them.

🤖

Compliance handled

Tradovate requires automated orders to be flagged. CrossTrade sets isAutomated on every order it places for you. There is nothing to configure.

🧭

See where orders went

Alert History badges every Tradovate order, and a broker toggle in the header switches your live positions, orders, and P&L between NinjaTrader and Tradovate.

Connect in three steps

If you already send CrossTrade webhooks, you are one line away from trading Tradovate.

Link Tradovate

Open My Account, Brokers tab. Click Link Live or Link Demo and authorize through Tradovate's OAuth screen.

Point a webhook at it

Add one line to your alert: destination=tradovate;. Everything else is the command syntax you already know.

Send and confirm

Fire the alert. The order executes in Tradovate's cloud and shows in Alert History with a Tradovate badge.

Webhook key=your-secret-key;
command=place;
account=DemoAccount;
instrument=ES1!;
action=buy;
qty=1;
order_type=market;
tif=day;

Tradovate questions, answered

What the alpha covers, what's coming, and how it's billed

Do I need the NinjaTrader add-on to use Tradovate?

No. The Tradovate connection runs entirely in CrossTrade's cloud. You authorize Tradovate once from My Account, Brokers tab, and orders execute through Tradovate's API over HTTPS. There is no desktop software to install or keep open, and your computer can be off.

Which plans include Tradovate?

The Tradovate webhook destination is included with every plan: Standard, Pro, and Elite. There is no separate Tradovate fee. Compare plans.

What does "alpha" mean here?

Tradovate support is new and intentionally basic right now: a secure OAuth connection and core webhook automation. It works and traders use it, but expect rough edges. Running the alpha means helping us find them, so if an order behaves unexpectedly, grab the Order ID from Alert History and report it to support.

Can I use Tradovate with a prop firm account?

Many Tradovate-based funded firms (Apex, Topstep, and others) link through the Link Demo option, since firm accounts live on Tradovate's Demo environment. Be aware that some prop firms prohibit third-party automation in their terms of service, so review your firm's rules first. See our Trading Disclaimer.

What can NinjaTrader do that Tradovate cannot?

A lot, for now. The NinjaTrader integration is much deeper: the Account Manager risk monitors, strategy synchronization, fill-driven copying of manual trades, and Opposing Position Protection are NinjaTrader-only. Tradovate is newer and intentionally limited while it is in alpha.
