YOUR PLATFORM. YOUR COPY DESK.

A considered workflow.
From leader to follower.

NinjaTrader connects your accounts. CanaCopy brings the copying workflow into the same Desktop instance—with deliberate account selection, visible sizing and a session you review before you arm.

THE LOCAL WORKSPACE

Your setup.
Clearly in view.

One leader, selected followers and one exact futures contract, including its expiry. Choose the copying mode that matches your intended workflow.

Deliberate sizing
Whole-number multipliers, plus ratio and fixed sizing in development Fill copy. Review contract-count caps and, for that development mode, quantity examples before arming.
Local profiles
Keep your settings and layout close. Rebind accounts and review the setup each time you reload.
Useful visibility
Review route observations and faults. Save a sanitized diagnostic report locally.

THE TRIGGER CHANGES EVERYTHING

Two modes.
Clear differences.

Choose what your followers respond to. Understand the protection behavior before you start.

01

ORDER MIRROR

Follow the orders.

Mirror supported market, limit and stop entries, plus one stop and an optional target. Supported leader price changes follow through.

  • Follower-specific OCO identifiers
  • Supported single-bracket ATM child changes
  • Whole-number follower multipliers
Know the boundary

No independent follower ATM. Multiple targets, scale-ins and entry OCO are not supported. Protection can be delayed or rejected.

02

FILL COPY

Follow the executions.

Observed leader fills create follower market-order obligations, using the configured sizing and contract-count limits.

  • No copy of an unfilled resting entry
  • Ratio/fixed sizing in development Fill copy
  • Actual fills and positions reconciled
Know the boundary

No resting follower stops or targets are created. Follower timing, prices and losses can differ from the leader.

AN INTENTIONAL SESSION

Set it deliberately.
See it clearly.

Provider sign-in stays in NinjaTrader. CanaCopy works with selected eligible accounts in that running Desktop instance.

See the setup workflow
  1. 01

    Choose the accounts.

    Start with dedicated local simulation accounts. Select a leader, followers and one exact futures contract.

  2. 02

    Review the rules.

    Set the mode, sizing and contract-count caps. In development ratio/fixed Fill copy, review the quantity examples. Confirm eligibility and start flat and idle.

  3. 03

    Arm. Observe. Resolve.

    Confirm arming, then review native Orders, Executions and Positions. Stopping and flattening are separate actions.

PROGRESS, WITH CONTEXT

Built. Tested.
Still a beta.

Recent development adds ratio/fixed Fill copy and sizing examples before arming. Selected long ratio and fixed-size sessions, plus no-order preview checks, passed in NinjaTrader 8.1.8.3 local simulation. These additions remain unreleased; broader scenarios and provider execution still need qualification.

BEFORE YOU START

Good questions.
Direct answers.

Is CanaCopy approved by NinjaTrader?

Pending NinjaTrader approval. CanaCopy is independent software from CowboyFX LLC. No NinjaTrader approval, endorsement, partnership or commercial distribution agreement is claimed.

Can I download it today?

CanaCopy remains a development beta. Beta.5 is the latest published prerelease in the private project repository; newer development is unreleased. Public downloads, checkout and a commercial launch date are not available on this site.

Does it work with Tradovate or Rithmic?

Provider qualification remains pending. A connection appearing in NinjaTrader does not establish CanaCopy compatibility. Each account route and copying direction needs its own permissions and execution tests.

Will copying continue with my computer off?

The copy logic runs locally inside your running Windows NinjaTrader Desktop instance. Copying does not continue through a cloud or remote service when that instance is unavailable.

Does Stop close my positions?

Stop and follower Flatten are separate actions. Stopping or faulting does not continue copying later leader exits. Existing exposure may require direct management in NinjaTrader; Fill copy creates no resting follower stop or target.
