Everything you need to know.
Q-My-Trade copies NinjaTrader 8 trades from configured master accounts to follower accounts. Each master can have multiple sub-groups, with ROTATE or COPY ALL set independently. It includes configured sizing, copy caps, Trade History and performance analytics.
Q-My-Trade can copy trades to accounts configured in NinjaTrader 8. Check your account provider and firm terms before use. The software does not guarantee compliance with any prop firm rules.
Yes. Q-My-Trade watches the signal account for order fills, it doesn’t care how those fills were generated. It works with fully automated strategies, semi-automated strategies, and completely manual trading via the NT8 order entry panel.
Refine-My-Trade standalone lifetime is $49.99 for one NinjaTrader installation. Q-My-Trade is $29.99 monthly or $349.99 lifetime. Refine-My-Trade is included with either Q-My-Trade license.
Q-My-Trade runs on NinjaTrader 8, version 8.1.8.4 or later, on Windows. From 1 November 2026, older versions of NinjaTrader can't connect, so update NinjaTrader first. Then get the current Q-My-Trade package from the Downloads page.
Yes. Use one Master Group per instrument or signal account. Each master operates completely independently with its own account pool, operating mode, and P&L tracking.
ROTATE sends one copy at a time to a follower account in sequence within the selected sub-group. The configured queue determines which eligible account receives the next copy.
COPY ALL sends a copy to every eligible follower account in the selected sub-group for each signal.
Yes. A master group can contain multiple follower sub-groups, each configured for ROTATE or COPY ALL. A follower account can be in only one sub-group per master group, but it can be in several master groups at once, for example NQ under one and gold under another. Pair unrelated instruments: Hedge Protection blocks opposing trades on related ones, such as NQ and ES.
No. Q-My-Trade caps block future copies when configured thresholds are reached. They do not close open positions, prevent losses beyond the threshold, interact with a broker or prop firm risk system, or guarantee compliance. Keep independent risk controls.
Capped accounts reset immediately when you click Reset All in the panel header.
Q-My-Trade caps do not close an open position. A reached cap blocks future copies according to the configured cap behavior. Review the account’s open positions and rules separately.
Import the Q-My-Trade zip file into NinjaTrader via Tools → Import NinjaScript Add-On. The package installs both the AddOn (control panel) and Strategy (rotation engine) in a single import. No manual file copying or compilation required.
Yes, open the Q-My-Trade panel from the Tools menu first. Your saved queue configuration loads automatically when the panel opens. The strategy then subscribes to your signal account on the next tick. Opening the panel first ensures everything is configured correctly before trading begins.
In the Q-My-Trade panel, click MANAGE QUEUE, add a Master Group, and select your signal account from the dropdown in the master header. Do not add your signal account to the rotation queue, Q-My-Trade protects this automatically.
Yes. Each master group has a CHART setting that links it to the chart where the Q-My-Trade strategy is loaded. In multi-master setups with different instruments, apply the strategy to a separate chart for each instrument and set the CHART dropdown on each master to match.
You are responsible for checking your current prop firm terms. Some firms restrict automation. Q-My-Trade does not know or enforce a firm’s rules, and its caps do not guarantee compliance.
Yes, some difference is normal and expected. Differences arise from execution latency, market slippage at the time of fill, commission structures, and partial fill variations. Q-My-Trade minimises latency by being fully event-driven, but cannot eliminate slippage entirely.
