MT5 to cTrader Trade Copier

MT5 and cTrader are the two platforms where an account is hedging or netting, so this is the one direction where mode is a live question at both ends rather than one. A netting MT5 source keeps a single net position per symbol, so stacking two trades there gives it one position to report where a hedging account would have had two. A netted cTrader follower merges the copies it receives. Naming is the other half of the job: MT5 brokers write USTEC, GER40 and JP225 where cTrader brokers write US TECH 100, GERMANY 40 and JAPAN 225. Currently demo accounts only on both platforms: prop-firm evaluation and funded accounts usually run on demo accounts — MetaTrader demo servers, or a cTrader demo account where the firm issues one — which is what Trepeat connects. Live real-capital accounts aren't supported.

Mode is a question at both ends

An MT5 account is hedging or netting and a cTrader account is Hedged or Netted, each decided by the broker when the account was created. Trepeat tracks one follower position per source position on every platform, which maps exactly while a symbol holds a single position — including partial closes, which repeat against that position, sized by the repeater's rule (one too small for the follower's minimum closes the whole copy). It is the second position in one symbol where a netting account on either end starts to diverge.

The netted follower alert fires at the stacking moment

A setup-time warning can only say an account is netted; it cannot know you have now done the specific thing netting breaks. Trepeat raises the alert the moment a copy is about to land on a symbol that follower already holds — the point at which its exposure actually stops matching the source — and names the symbol and the repeater.

Abbreviations on one side, spaces on the other

MetaTrader brokers abbreviate indices and close them up, and some prefix whole families with a hash: US500, USTEC, GER40, #Germany40, #Japan225. cTrader brokers spell them out with spaces: US 500, US TECH 100, GERMANY 40, JAPAN 225. A repeater-level symbol remap translates the name before each fill is submitted, and Trepeat proposes the match when you create the remapping.

Volume read from the follower's broker, per symbol

Minimums and steps belong to the instrument and the broker, not the platform. FX majors commonly step in 0.01 lots; index and crypto CFDs frequently step in 0.1, 1.0 or larger, and cTrader adds a per-symbol units-per-lot figure on top. Trepeat reads each follower symbol's own numbers and snaps the copy to them, skipping anything that lands below the minimum rather than sending an order the broker would refuse.

Built for evaluation + funded accounts

Prop-firm evaluation and funded accounts usually run on demo accounts — MetaTrader demo servers, or a cTrader demo account where the firm issues one — which is exactly what Trepeat currently connects. Run your evaluations and funded accounts side by side, each repeater with its own sizing and symbol rules. A challenge placed on a live account can't be connected either way. We don't share data with prop firms or read their evaluation rules.
