This guide is for DaneTrades Cloud.
Check the account before paying
DaneTrades Cloud does not have a free copier trial. Signed-in users can use the free Account Checker from Billing before starting a subscription.
Use it when you are unsure whether the exact TradeLocker account can connect.
Before you start
Confirm whether the TradeLocker account is Demo or Live. DaneTrades must use the matching TradeLocker environment.
Current environment choices are:
https://demo.tradelocker.comhttps://live.tradelocker.com
You may also need the server or broker details associated with the account.
Connect the account
- Open Trading Accounts.
- Select Add Account.
- Choose TradeLocker.
- Select the correct Demo or Live environment.
- Enter the requested login details and server information.
- Continue while DaneTrades discovers the available accounts.
- Select the correct account.
- Give it a clear display name and finish the connection.
Verify the result
Wait until the account shows Connected and its symbols are available before creating a copier.
Common problems
Correct credentials, wrong environment
TradeLocker Demo and Live are separate environments. Credentials can be correct but still fail when the wrong environment is selected.
Wrong server or prop-firm environment
Confirm the exact account server or environment shown by the broker or prop firm. Do not assume two TradeLocker-branded portals are interchangeable.
When Demo or Live, the server and the credentials are definitely correct, ask the broker or prop firm whether third-party TradeLocker API access and trade copying are allowed for that account. Some providers block API connections even when the normal platform login works.
The wrong account appears
Check the selected environment, account and server before saving. Remove an incorrectly added account and reconnect the correct one.
Connection completes but symbols are unavailable
Wait for the symbol download to finish. If it fails repeatedly, continue through Support Assistant with the account selected.
Some actions are rejected
The receiver broker can apply symbol, volume, margin, market-state and account restrictions. Open Trade activity and follow the displayed rejection reason.
First test
- Create one copier.
- Review Symbol Mapping.
- Use a small fixed lot or conservative multiplier.
- Place one test trade.
- Confirm the outcome in Trade activity.
When to continue to support
Continue when the correct Demo or Live environment, server and credentials have been confirmed, the provider confirms third-party API trade copying is allowed, and account discovery or connection still fails.
Provide the account name, environment, server and approximate time. Do not provide the password.
