Click 'Connect Tradovate', land on Tradovate page, log in with demo creds, redirected back to Copygram and… still says 'Not connected'. Tried Chrome + Firefox.
- Bot not picking up trades from a channel I'm admin of — Help & Troubleshooting
Channel is small, I'm admin, the Copygram bot is added. Signals look like a normal . Room is active, source is enabled, but 0 trades in logs. What am I missing?
- Account showing inactive after upgrading to Pro — Help & Troubleshooting
Just upgraded from Starter to Pro. Trading account that was working is now flagged 'Inactive'. Restarted the room, reconnected the credentials, same thing. Did the upgrade reset something?
- BTC reclaim of weekly POC — what I'm watching — Crypto
Weekly POC sitting around 64.2k. If we reclaim and hold above into the weekly close I'm leaning long into next week. Below, I'm flat. Not financial advice, just notes.
- Receiver opens trades 10–15 sec after signal — is that normal? — Help & Troubleshooting
I time-stamped a few. Telegram message → MT5 fill is consistently 10–15 seconds. Sender→Copygram seems instant in logs, the lag is clearly receiver side. VPS is in Frankfurt.
- Two trades for the same signal — duplicate fills — Help & Troubleshooting
Single channel, single room, single receiver. One signal in chat = two trades on MT5. Reactions / replies are off. Any idea?
- Telegram channels failed to load after I changed my number — Help & Troubleshooting
Re-logged into the Telegram session in Copygram with my new number. Now in 'Pick channels' it just spins and says 'Failed to load channels'. Cleared and re-paired twice. Anyone else?
- Webhook signals not firing into MT5 — checked secret, still nothing — Help & Troubleshooting
Set up a TradingView strategy alert with the JSON payload from the Copygram docs. Webhook URL + secret are correct, I tested with the curl example and got . But on MT5 the room shows 0 signals received. Logs are empty. Anyone hit this?
- NAS100 daily structure — bullish until proven otherwise — Stocks & Indices
HH/HL on the daily since the April low. I'm long bias until we lose 17,800. Not adding into chop, just waiting.
- Telegram CFD signal → Tradovate futures, how do I map it? — Help & Troubleshooting
Provider posts . I want it to fire YM on my Tradovate. Is there a symbol mapping anywhere or do I need a separate room per symbol?
- EURUSD finally breaking the 4-week range — Forex
Range was 1.0780–1.0860. Closed above 1.0870 on the 4h with volume. Watching for a retest as support before getting long.
- Edge Function returned a non-2xx — webhook test from TradingView — Help & Troubleshooting
Sending a test alert from TradingView to my Copygram webhook URL. TradingView UI shows 'Webhook returned 4xx'. I'm 99% the secret is right (copied straight from the room). Where do I see the actual error?
- Symbol allowlist — saved my receiver during news — Automations & Strategy
Receiver allowlist: only $EURUSD, $GBPUSD, $XAUUSD. Everything else gets dropped. Sounds restrictive but it stopped a noisy provider from blowing through me on $US30 during a CPI release.
- MT4 Standard EA file — where to put it — Signal Sources
After you add an MT4 Standard sender you'll get an EA file. In MT4: open the data folder (File → Open Data Folder), drop it in , refresh the Navigator, drag it onto any chart (the symbol doesn't matter), allow DLL imports + algo trading. T…
- FOMC week — how I de-risk through Wednesday — Stocks & Indices
Cut size to 0.25%, no new positions Tuesday afternoon → Thursday morning. Anything still open Wednesday 1pm gets closed manually. Boring beats blown.
- 30-day equity curve copying 3 sources blended — Showcase & Results
+11.2% over 30 days, max DD 4.1%. Three telegram sources, each capped at 0.3% per trade, no concurrent symbol overlap (allowlist split). Boring and that's the point.
- Tradovate connection drops every ~6 hours — Help & Troubleshooting
Connected via OAuth, works fine then suddenly receiver shows 'Disconnected' and I have to re-auth. Anyone seen this? Is there a token refresh issue?
- Built my first profitable room in 10 minutes — Showcase & Results
Came over from a manual copying setup that took me weeks to script. Picked a telegram channel I'd been following manually, added MT5 Hosted, set 0.25% risk, hit go. First trade fired 20 minutes later. Up 2.3% the first week.
- MT4 Hosted not compatible with FTMO server — what now? — Help & Troubleshooting
Tried to add my FTMO Demo (FTMO-Demo2) as MT4 Hosted. Copygram says 'server not supported'. I read somewhere FTMO needs MT4 Standard — can someone confirm and link me to the right guide?
- Stop loss not being placed on receiver — Help & Troubleshooting
Sender MT5, receiver MT5 Hosted. SL is in the original signal and visible on the sender. Receiver opens the trade but with no SL attached. Both rooms have 'Copy SL/TP' enabled.
- Move SL to breakeven on TP1 — how I configured it — Automations & Strategy
Receiver settings → Trade Management → enable 'Move SL to breakeven on TP1'. Set the buffer to +1 pip on the entry direction. Works for MT4/MT5 receivers, not currently for Tradovate.
- Reverse-copying a losing provider — does anyone actually do this profitably? — Automations & Strategy
Provider has been -28% over 2 months. Hit rate is 35% with bad RR. On paper, reverse-copying with the same SL/TP swap should be +EV. Anyone tried this with Copygram's invert feature for more than a sample-of-one month?
- How do I cap my daily loss across all rooms? — Help & Troubleshooting
I have 3 rooms running on the same prop account. Need a global daily-loss kill switch (e.g. -3%) that shuts everything down for the day. Is this in Copygram or do I need to do it on the broker side?
- NFP day — do you pause your rooms? — Market News
Some providers post 'no trading today' messages, others fire signals 30 sec after the print. I just disable my rooms 14:25–14:45 UTC and call it a day. Curious what others do.
- TradingView free plan webhooks — yes it works, with a limit — Signal Sources
TradingView's free plan allows webhook alerts but caps you at 1 per account. If you only need one strategy → fine. More than one → you need Pro or Pro+. Copygram itself doesn't care about your TV plan, but you'll feel the limit fast.
- Contract sizes doubling up on Tradovate receiver — Help & Troubleshooting
Sender is MT5 sending 0.10 lot EURUSD. Receiver is Tradovate (6E). I set the multiplier to 1.0 expecting 1 micro per 0.10 lot but it's opening 2 contracts. Is there a different conversion?
- Webhook secrets — rotate them, don't share rooms — Signal Sources
PSA: your webhook URL + secret is essentially a 'fire trades on my account' key. Don't paste it in Discord screenshots, don't reuse the same secret across 3 rooms, and rotate when you remove a sender. Copygram lets you regenerate the secre…
- Telegram → Copygram bot needs to be added as ADMIN, not just member — Signal Sources
Just lost an evening on this. If the bot is a regular channel member it can read messages but for some channel types it can't. Promote it to admin (no permissions needed beyond default), restart the room, and signals start flowing.
- Live Chart Trading — the part I wish I knew sooner — Setup & Guides
Live Chart Trading lets you place a trade from inside a Copygram room and have it copied to receivers like a normal signal. You don't need an external sender for it. Use cases: - Manual entries during news - Testing your receiver setup wit…
- First Apex payout, copied to Tradovate — Showcase & Results
Apex 50k, copied a TradingView NQ strategy via webhooks → Tradovate. Two weeks to clear the trailing drawdown, withdrew $1,800. Strategy is mean-reversion, 10 trades a day.
- Passed FTMO 100k Phase 1 with one telegram source — full setup — Showcase & Results
Took 9 trading days. One source: a free telegram channel that posts 2–3 EUR session forex signals/day. Receiver settings: 0.5% risk per trade, BE on TP1, no trades during NY session. Key was the session filter — provider's NY trades were w…
- Coffee + charts: what's your morning routine? — Off-topic / Lounge
Mine: 6am wake, espresso, 30 min reading the overnight session, check that all rooms are active and receivers connected, then breakfast. By the time London opens I know what I'm watching. You?
- TradingView strategy → Binance Futures, 60 days live — Showcase & Results
Long-only BTC perp, 4h timeframe, simple breakout. +18% / -7% DD. Webhook → Copygram → Binance Futures via API. Drama-free.
- More broker servers in MT5 Hosted dropdown — Feature Requests
Specifically: Equiti Pro, BlackBull, Eightcap. I requested via support and was told they're case-by-case. A self-serve 'request server' button + ETA would be great.
- Per-symbol multipliers — my setup — Automations & Strategy
I copy one provider but I trust their gold calls more than their forex calls. Set multiplier 1.0 on $XAUUSD, 0.5 on everything else. Saved my account during a bad EUR week.
- From signal to MT5 fill: 1.4 seconds median — Showcase & Results
Measured for a week. Telegram message timestamp → MT5 fill timestamp. Median 1.4s, p95 3.2s. Sender was a very active gold channel, receiver MT5 Hosted Frankfurt.
- Trailing stop on the receiver side — Feature Requests
Many providers don't trail. Would love a receiver-side trailing setting (X pips behind price, optional activation after Y pips in profit).
- MT4 vs MT5 as a sender — practical differences — Signal Sources
Both work fine. Differences: - MT5 reports trades faster (it has a real position model, MT4 just has orders). - MT5 handles partial closes natively. On MT4 we synthesize them. - If your provider is hedging (multiple opposite positions on t…
- Don't risk more than your prop firm's daily DD per signal — Automations & Strategy
Math nobody does: - Account: 100k - Daily loss limit: 5% = $5,000 - Provider sometimes posts 5 signals before any close If each signal risks 1% you can be -5% by lunchtime on any noisy day. Cap your per-signal risk at . For me that's 0.5%.
- Tradovate OAuth — full walk-through with screenshots — Setup & Guides
Tradovate is OAuth only (no username/password in Copygram). Flow: 1. Trading Accounts → Add → Tradovate. 2. Click 'Authorize'. New tab opens on Tradovate. 3. Log in with your Tradovate email + password. 4. Approve the Copygram app. 5. You'…
