Apex Trader Funding

Several Apex accounts. One place you trade.

Apex is the firm most people end up holding several accounts with, and the moment there is more than one, the problem stops being the strategy and starts being the operations. This is the page about the operations.

The problem with four evaluations

Nobody buys a second funded account because their execution was too easy. They buy it because the first one worked, and now the same trade has to happen twice, then four times, at four different sizes, inside four different sets of limits, while the market is moving.

Doing that by hand fails in a predictable order: the second fill is worse than the first, the fourth account gets forgotten, and the account you forgot is the one already holding a position.

A copier removes the typing. You trade the account you actually watch, and the others reproduce it — sized for what each one can carry, checked against each one's own daily limit before the order leaves.

A muted account sits the trade out. Nothing else in the group changes.

Connected on the rails Apex accounts already use

Apex accounts are traded through platforms rather than through Apex directly, and Quanify connects to those platforms rather than to the firm.

A Tradovate connection is authorised over OAuth and holds one session per login. Every funded sub-account under that login becomes individually addressable, which is what makes per-account sizing possible in the first place — several accounts on one login are not one account to us.

There is no bridge process and no VPS. The session is held server-side, so the copying continues with your machine off and there is no desktop application whose crash you find out about from a position you did not expect.

Caps that are yours, not the firm's

Every funded account already has limits imposed on it. The point of setting your own is that yours trigger first, and yours stop the next order rather than ending the account.

Sizing is applied per account before the order is sent, so a small evaluation and a large funded account do not trade the same number of contracts off one signal. An account you mute stops taking fills entirely while staying linked and configured.

Two things the cap deliberately does not do. It never blocks a closing order — being unable to exit would be a worse failure than any loss the cap was written to prevent. And it cannot unwind a position that is already open, so it stops the next order, not the current one.

Size well inside the firm's number rather than at it. The gap between the two is the room the market needs while your exit is in flight.

Fixed contract size

A size set on the strategy overrides whatever quantity the signal carried, so a source with no knowledge of your account cannot decide how large you trade.

Per strategy

Allow 2+ entries, off by default

A signal that would grow a position you already hold in the same direction is refused. Scaling out is always allowed, and so is a flip — you can always get smaller.

Off by default. While it is off, a signal that would grow a position you already hold in the same direction is refused. Scaling out is always allowed, and so is a flip.

The guard against a noisy signal

Before you arm anything, read the rules

Whether you can mirror across a firm's accounts is decided by that firm's contract, not by the tooling, and firms change their rules without a changelog. Apex publishes its own; the version that applies is the current one for the specific account you are arming.

Search the rulebook for "copy", "mirror", "duplicate", "multiple accounts" and "automated" — the clauses are almost never under a heading called copy trading. If a clause is ambiguous, ask support and keep the reply. An ambiguous rule gets resolved at payout time, which is the wrong time to be discussing it.

Copy trading and prop firms covers which clauses matter and what they are usually guarding against. Quanify has no ability to make an account compliant, and neither does any other tool.

Test it on an evaluation first

Nothing about the configuration changes between a simulated account, an evaluation and a funded account — same connection, same sizing, same caps. So there is no reason to find out how it behaves on the account that matters.

Run it through real sessions on sim. Watch a partial fill land on every account at the right size, at each step rather than eventually. Check that an account hitting its cap stops without disturbing the others. Then point it at the accounts you care about.

Common questions

Can I copy trades between my Apex accounts?

Technically yes — several funded sub-accounts under one platform login are individually addressable, so one can lead and the others follow at their own sizes. Whether you are permitted to is a question for Apex's current rules for your specific account type, and that is a contract matter rather than a technical one.

Does this work with Apex accounts on Tradovate?

Yes. Quanify connects to Tradovate over OAuth and every funded sub-account on that login becomes addressable individually, which is what per-account sizing depends on.

Do I need a VPS or a desktop copier?

No. The broker session is held server-side, so there is nothing installed and nothing that has to stay awake. Copies continue with your laptop shut.

Can I size each account differently?

Yes, and you should. Each account carries its own whole-number multiplier applied before the order is sent, so a 50K evaluation and a 250K funded account do not have to trade the same number of contracts.

Can I stop one account without stopping the rest?

Yes — mute it. A muted account stops taking fills while staying linked and configured, and the rest of the group is unaffected. Unlinking to pause an account is how routing gets lost.

Will this keep me inside Apex's rules?

It gives you the per-account caps, sizing and mute you need to manage several accounts at once. It cannot make an account compliant with a rule that forbids mirroring — that is a decision about which accounts you arm.

Start on a simulated account.

Connect a sim or evaluation account and run the whole product against it before you point anything at live money. Nothing about the setup changes when you do.
