Best Trade Copier for Apex, Bulenox, and Other Prop Firm Funded Accounts in 2025

Introduction

You've worked hard to pass your prop firm evaluations at Apex, Bulenox, and other leading prop firms. Now you're managing 5, 10, or even 20 funded accounts—and you're facing a new challenge that has nothing to do with your trading strategy. How do you execute the same trade across all your accounts without missing entries, getting different fill prices, or spending your entire day switching between trading platforms?

If you've ever tried to manually replicate trades across multiple funded accounts, you know the frustration. You see the perfect setup, execute on your first account, then frantically switch to the second, third, and fourth accounts. By the time you're halfway through, the market has moved, some accounts are filled at worse prices, and you might have accidentally violated a drawdown rule on one of them.

This is exactly why successful prop firm traders use a trade copier for prop firm accounts. Automated trade replication lets you focus on your strategy while technology handles the execution across all your funded accounts simultaneously. In this guide, we'll show you how to choose the right trade copier and set it up for your Apex, Bulenox, Take Profit Trader, and other prop firm accounts.

Why Prop Firm Traders Need a Trade Copier

The prop firm trading model has created a unique situation: traders who prove their skills often end up with multiple funded accounts. You might have passed three Apex evaluations, two Take Profit Trader accounts, and a Bulenox account—all running simultaneously. This is fantastic for scaling your income, but it creates a serious operational challenge.

Here are the pain points every multi-account prop trader faces:

• Missing critical entries or exits on some accounts because you can't physically execute fast enough across all platforms
• Different fill prices across accounts leading to inconsistent P&L and potential rule violations on accounts with worse fills
• Wasted time switching between multiple instances of the same trading platform or different broker platforms
• Increased risk of mistakes during fast-moving markets when you're trying to manage 10+ accounts manually
• Mental fatigue from the repetitive task of entering the same trade multiple times instead of analyzing the markets
• Missed opportunities because you're too busy managing execution to spot new setups

If you're managing more than two funded accounts, you've probably experienced at least one scenario where manual execution cost you money or violated a rule. A trade copier for prop firm accounts solves all of these problems by executing your trades simultaneously across all accounts in milliseconds.

What to Look for in a Prop Firm Trade Copier

Not all trade copiers are created equal, especially when it comes to prop firm accounts. Here's your checklist for choosing the right solution:

Broker Support

Your trade copier must support the brokers your prop firms use. The most common platforms for prop firms are:

• Tradovate (used by Apex, Take Profit Trader, TradeDay, Leeloo Trading)
• Rithmic (used by Bulenox, My Funded Futures, and many others)
• NinjaTrader (supported by various prop firms)

Make sure your trade copier supports the specific broker your funded accounts use. If you have Apex accounts on Tradovate and Bulenox accounts on Rithmic, you need a copier that handles both.

Real-Time Execution Speed

In futures trading, milliseconds matter. Look for a trade copier that replicates trades in under 200 milliseconds. Any longer and you risk significant slippage between your master account and slave accounts, especially during volatile market conditions.

Quantity Multipliers

Your funded accounts may have different sizes. You might have a $50K Apex account, a $150K Take Profit Trader account, and a $250K Bulenox account. A good trade copier lets you set custom quantity multipliers so that each account trades an appropriate position size based on its buying power.

For example, if you're trading 2 contracts on your master account:

• 50K account: 1 contract (0.5x multiplier)
• 150K account: 2 contracts (1x multiplier)
• 250K account: 4 contracts (2x multiplier)

DEMO Environment Support (Critical!)

This is crucial: most prop firm funded accounts run on demo environments. When you get a funded account from Apex, Bulenox, or Take Profit Trader, you're not trading with a live brokerage account—you're trading on a demo/sim environment that the prop firm monitors.

Your trade copier must explicitly support connecting to demo/sim environments on Tradovate, Rithmic, and NinjaTrader. Many basic trade copiers only support live accounts and won't work with prop firm funded accounts.

Position Flattening Across All Accounts

You need the ability to flatten all positions across all accounts with one click. If the market moves against you or you need to close everything quickly, you can't afford to manually close positions on 15 different accounts.

Reliability and Uptime

When you're trading funded accounts with strict rules, downtime isn't acceptable. Look for a cloud-based trade copier that runs 24/7 without requiring you to keep a computer or VPS running. The copier should have built-in redundancy and proven uptime.

How SyncFutures Works with Prop Firm Accounts

SyncFutures is specifically designed to handle the unique requirements of prop firm trade synchronization. Here's how it works:

Master and Slave Account Setup

You designate one account as your master account—this is where you execute your trades normally, just like you always have. All other accounts are configured as slave accounts that automatically copy whatever happens on the master.

When you enter a long position on your master account, SyncFutures instantly replicates that trade across all connected slave accounts. The same happens for exits, stop losses, and any modifications you make.

Supported Brokers

SyncFutures supports the three main platforms used by prop firms:

• Tradovate: Full support for both demo and live environments (Apex, Take Profit Trader, TradeDay, Leeloo Trading)
• Rithmic: Complete integration with demo and live environments (Bulenox, My Funded Futures, Earn2Trade)
• NinjaTrader: Compatible with NT8 and NT7 (various prop firms)

Most importantly, SyncFutures fully supports demo/sim environments, which is where your actual prop firm funded accounts operate. This isn't just a nice feature—it's a requirement for prop trading.

Key Features for Prop Traders

Sub-200ms Trade Replication: Your trades copy across all accounts in under 200 milliseconds. This means minimal slippage between accounts and consistent fill prices across your portfolio.

Quantity Multipliers: Set custom position sizes for each account. If your master account trades 2 contracts, you can configure your larger accounts to trade 4 contracts and smaller accounts to trade 1 contract automatically.

One-Click Position Flattening: Close all positions across all accounts instantly. Critical for managing risk when you have 10+ accounts running simultaneously.

Real-Time Control Room: Monitor all your accounts from a single dashboard. See positions, P&L, and connection status for every account in real-time without switching between platforms.

Cloud-Based Operation: No VPS required, no software to install. Your trades copy 24/7 from SyncFutures' cloud infrastructure, so you can close your laptop and your copier keeps running.

Setting Up Your Prop Firm Accounts in SyncFutures

Getting started with copy trades across multiple funded accounts is straightforward. Here's the step-by-step process:

Step 1: Connect Your Broker

Log into your SyncFutures dashboard and connect your broker. For most prop firm traders, this means:

• Tradovate: Use your Tradovate API credentials (both for master and slave accounts). For a detailed step-by-step walkthrough, see our complete guide to connecting Tradovate to a trade copier.
• Rithmic: Enter your Rithmic username, password, and system name (critical!). For detailed instructions including how to find your system name, see our complete guide to connecting Rithmic to a trade copier.
• NinjaTrader: Connect via NinjaTrader's connection protocol

SyncFutures uses secure API connections—you never share your username and password, only API tokens that can be revoked at any time.

Step 2: Select DEMO Environment

This is critical: when adding each prop firm funded account, make sure to select the DEMO/Sim environment, not Live. Your Apex, Bulenox, and Take Profit Trader accounts are all demo accounts from the broker's perspective, even though they're "funded" by the prop firm.

If you accidentally try to connect to the live environment, the connection will fail because your credentials are for demo accounts only.

Step 3: Choose Your Master Account

Decide which account will be your master. Many traders choose:

• Their largest account as the master
• The account on their primary trading platform
• A dedicated "master" account they use just for signal generation

The choice is up to you—your trading stays exactly the same on the master account. All other accounts become slaves that copy it.

Step 4: Configure Slave Accounts with Multipliers

Add each of your other funded accounts as slave accounts. For each one, set:

• Account name (e.g., "Apex 50K #1", "Bulenox 250K")
• Quantity multiplier based on account size
• Symbols to copy (if you only want to copy certain instruments)

For example, if you have:

• Master: Take Profit Trader 150K (2 contracts per trade)
• Slave 1: Apex 50K (set 0.5x multiplier = 1 contract)
• Slave 2: Apex 50K (set 0.5x multiplier = 1 contract)
• Slave 3: Bulenox 250K (set 1.5x multiplier = 3 contracts)

Step 5: Enable the Copier Engine

Once everything is configured, enable the copier with one click. SyncFutures will show all accounts as "Connected" in your Control Room. Now you're ready to trade.

Every trade you execute on your master account instantly replicates to all slave accounts with the correct position sizes. You trade exactly like you always have, but now you're managing 10 accounts as easily as one.

Broker Compatibility for Popular Prop Firms

Here's a quick reference for which prop firms work with SyncFutures:

If your prop firm uses Tradovate, Rithmic, or NinjaTrader (which covers 95%+ of prop firms), SyncFutures supports it. The key is that your trade copier must support demo environments, since that's how prop firm funded accounts operate.

Common Questions About Trade Copiers for Prop Firms

Q: Is using a trade copier allowed by prop firms?

A: Yes, most prop firms explicitly allow trade copiers and consider them a professional tool for scaling. Apex, Bulenox, Take Profit Trader, and other major firms don't prohibit automated trade replication. However, always check your specific prop firm's rules—some may have specific guidelines about automation.

The key is that you're still the one making the trading decisions. A trade copier simply replicates your manual trades across accounts. This is different from an automated trading bot that trades without human input, which some firms may restrict.

Q: Do I need separate connections for each prop firm account?

A: It depends on your broker. With Tradovate, you can connect multiple accounts under the same login credentials. With Rithmic, each funded account may have its own credentials.

SyncFutures handles this seamlessly. You simply add each account with its credentials, and the platform manages all the connections. You don't need multiple computers, multiple platform installations, or a complex VPS setup—everything runs from SyncFutures' cloud infrastructure.

Q: What happens if one account gets a different fill price?

A: Each account executes independently with its broker, so fill prices can vary slightly based on market conditions and order routing. This is normal and unavoidable—even if you manually executed on all accounts, you'd see the same variation.

However, with SyncFutures' sub-200ms replication speed, fill price differences are typically minimal (1-2 ticks maximum in most markets). This is far better than manual execution, where your last few accounts might be filled 5-10 ticks worse than your first account if the market is moving fast.

Q: Can I use different position sizes on different accounts?

A: Absolutely. This is one of the most important features of a prop firm trade copier. SyncFutures lets you set custom quantity multipliers for each slave account.

If you trade 2 contracts on your master account:

• Small accounts can use 0.5x multiplier (1 contract)
• Medium accounts can use 1x multiplier (2 contracts)
• Large accounts can use 2x multiplier (4 contracts)

You set these multipliers once during setup, and they apply automatically to every trade. You never have to think about position sizing for each account—the copier handles it.

Q: What happens if my internet connection drops?

A: This is where cloud-based trade copiers like SyncFutures shine. Because the copier runs on cloud infrastructure, not on your computer, your internet connection doesn't affect the copying process.

Your accounts are connected to SyncFutures' servers, which maintain the connections to your brokers. Even if your home internet goes down, your slave accounts continue copying your master account because everything runs in the cloud.

The only impact of losing your internet is that you can't place new trades on your master account—but the copying infrastructure continues running independently.

Q: Can I copy trades between different brokers?

A: Yes. You can have your master account on Tradovate and slave accounts on Rithmic, or any combination. SyncFutures handles the cross-broker replication seamlessly.

This is useful if you have funded accounts across multiple prop firms that use different platforms. For example, you might trade your Take Profit Trader account (Tradovate) as the master and copy to your Bulenox accounts (Rithmic) as slaves.
