RS Trade Copier: GUI, async, 50 trades in ~1 second. Free demo

Hello traders!

My name is Boris Sedov. I have been developing trading tools for MetaTrader since 2008. For the last 18 years, I have been refining
my local trade copier — RS Trade Copier. And only when it became truly convenient and lightning-fast did I release it on the MQL5 Market.


Why Did I Build This Tool?

If you have ever used trade copiers, you know the pain:

1. Endless list of 200+ cryptic settings in the "Inputs" tab
2. Manually typing account numbers (and praying you don't make a typo)
3. Slow trade closing: one by one, with a 0.2–0.6 second delay per trade

I watched this for years and eventually built a new product from scratch.


What Is RS Trade Copier?

It is a fully local trade copier between MT5 and MT4 with a full graphical interface and an asynchronous engine.

Interface
RS Trade Copier: Step-by-step visual wizard. Everything is set up with a mouse.
Other Solutions: 200+ cryptic parameters.

Languages
RS Trade Copier: Interface in English. Tooltips in 11 languages.
Other Solutions: No tooltips. Requires reading lengthy manuals.

Speed
RS Trade Copier: Asynchronous operations. Closing a batch of 50 positions takes only ~1 second.
Other Solutions: Sequential closing ~25 seconds.

Flexibility
RS Trade Copier: Per-symbol settings (separate multiplier for XAUUSD, for example).
Other Solutions: One multiplier for all symbols.

Auto-Discovery
RS Trade Copier: The client automatically finds active providers. No manual entry of account numbers.
Other Solutions: Account numbers must be typed manually.

Compatibility
RS Trade Copier: MT5 ⇔ MT4 in any combination.
Other Solutions: Often only MT4→MT4 or MT5→MT5.

How to install the demo (step-by-step guide)


Installation Guide (60 Seconds)

1. Download the demo file from the attachments to this post
2. Open MetaTrader → File → Open Data Folder → MQL5 (or MQL4) → Experts
3. Copy the downloaded file to the Experts folder
4. Restart the terminal
5. Find "RS Trade Copier" in the Navigator and drag it onto any chart
6. Select your language in the "Inputs" tab → OK → Follow the visual wizard

That's it. Setup takes about 1 minute. No need to type account numbers — the client finds providers automatically.


Full Version

The product is available in the Market.
ALL combinations are supported: MT5→MT4, MT4→MT5, MT5→MT5, MT4→MT4.

For copying between different platform versions (MT5 ⇔ MT4), both versions are required:

1. RS Trade Copier for MT5
2. RS Trade Copier for MT4

How Many Times Do You Need to Purchase RS Trade Copier to Start Copying?

Once.

A single purchase of RS Trade Copier gives you 20 activations. Each activation is one computer or Windows VPS.

Important: this refers to a classic Windows VPS. The built-in "Virtual Hosting" service from MetaQuotes (renting a virtual terminal directly in MT5) is not suitable for trade copying. To copy trades, you need a computer (desktop PC or laptop) or a full Windows VPS where you can install your own software and configure terminals manually.

How it works in practice:

You purchase the product once. That's it. Now you can install RS Trade Copier on 20 different computers or Windows VPS. On each of those devices, you can run any number of MT5 terminals from any brokers. In each terminal — any number of accounts: real, demo, or contest.

All these accounts will work. One purchase covers everything.

The only requirement: each terminal must be logged into the MQL5 community account (the one you used to purchase the product). It takes a minute: enter your login and password in the terminal settings, and all your purchases become available.

Why 20 activations?

You can use them all at once — install the product on all your computers and Windows VPS. Or keep some as a reserve. This is useful when you change a computer, replace a motherboard or processor, or reinstall the operating system. Each such change counts as a new device and requires a new activation. With 20 activations, you have a large reserve for years ahead.

In short:
1 purchase = 20 activations = 20 different computers or Windows VPS = unlimited terminals and accounts on each device.


Free Migration from Another Trade Copier

If you already use another trade copier purchased on the MQL5 Market, you can get RS Trade Copier for free for one year.

The number of free migrations is limited: 10.

What you need to do:

1. Contact me via private messages in the MQL5 community.

What the Client Manual Setup Looks Like

The step-by-step visual wizard guides you from selecting providers to the final launch. No more 200+ input fields — only what you need, with helpful tooltips.
Here are the main steps:

1. Selecting Providers
The client automatically finds all active providers on your computer or Windows VPS. You just need to select the ones you want and move them to the selected providers list. No manual entry of account numbers.

2. Selecting Symbols from Each Provider
For each provider, you can choose which symbols to copy trades from. Hotkeys (Shift, Ctrl) let you quickly select groups of symbols.


3. Symbol Mapping
Automatic symbol mapping adapts names to your broker. If needed, you can manually change the prefix/suffix or rename the symbol.

4. Opening Positions
Configure market and pending orders. Per-symbol settings: shift, range, slippage, pending order expiration.

5. SL/TP Levels
Configure Stop Loss and Take Profit: level shift, spread compensation, deferred sending. Everything can be set individually for each symbol.

6. Protection Strategies
Safe Stop Loss, Breakeven, and Trailing Stop — three levels of protection for your positions. Configured separately for each symbol.

7. Trading Targets and Limits
Daily and weekly profit targets. Automatic closing when a specified profit or loss is reached. Email and Push notifications.

Where to Find All Settings — Settings Overview

A quick guide showing where to find all RS Trade Copier settings.
The graphical interface organizes everything into clear tabs — no more scrolling through hundreds of lines in the EA properties window.

How to Set Different Lot Multipliers for Different Symbols — Per‑Symbol Volume Multiplier

Learn how to configure different lot multipliers for individual symbols.
For example, copy EURUSD with a multiplier of 2.0, and GBPUSD with a multiplier of 4.0 — all from the same provider.

Entering at a Better Price Than the Provider — Better Price Entry

This video explains how to open trades on the receiver side at a better price than the provider.
Configure offset in points to improve your entry.

Closing TP Slightly Earlier Than the Provider — Early Take Profit Closure

Set up your receiver to close trades a few points earlier than the provider's take profit level.
A useful feature for accounts with different spread or commission structures.

Provider and Client Modes. Automatic Configuration or Manual?

When you first launch RS Trade Copier, you are prompted to choose an operating mode: Provider or Client. This choice can always be changed later.

Provider is the terminal from which trades are copied. If this mode is selected, no further configuration is needed. The terminal simply broadcasts all trading activity on the account to all connected clients on the same device.

Client is the terminal that copies trades from the provider. After selecting this mode, you are offered a choice: automatic or manual configuration.

In the "Automatic configuration" window, the "Automatically detect settings" checkbox is checked by default. If you leave it enabled and click "Next", the client will automatically find all active providers, configure the parameters, and start copying. Nothing else needs to be configured. This is the option for those who want results right here and now.

If you need flexible manual control, uncheck "Automatically detect settings". You will gain access to all settings: selecting providers, choosing symbols, configuring multipliers, protection strategies, trading sessions, and much more.

Selecting Providers

Before configuring clients, make sure all provider terminals are running. The client only sees providers that are currently active on your computer or Windows VPS.

When you reach the provider selection step, the client automatically scans the device and displays a list of all detected providers. You just need to select the ones you want and move them to the selected providers list.

No manual entry of account numbers.

Selecting Symbols: Three Lists and Hotkeys for Group Selection

In the client manual setup, after choosing providers, you move to the symbol selection step. The window is divided into three lists:

1. Left list — selected providers. You can select one provider or all of them. This determines what appears in the center list: symbols from one provider or from all selected providers at once.
2. Center list — available symbols that have not yet been selected for copying trades on those symbols.
3. Right list — selected symbols whose trades will be copied to the client.

Symbols in both lists are sorted by three keys in priority order: provider → group → symbol name. Groups mirror the structure from your terminal: FX Majors, FX Crosses, Spot Metals, Crypto, and others.

Selection comes down to moving the desired symbols from the center list to the right list. This is done using the [>] button (move selected to the right) and [<] button (remove selected from the right list).

Three hotkeys are available for fast selection in any of the lists:

1. SHIFT + left mouse button — selects the entire group to which the symbol belongs. Click on any symbol in a group (e.g., EURUSD from FX Majors or XAUUSD from Spot Metals) while holding Shift — and the whole group is selected at once. The group name can be seen in a tooltip when hovering over a symbol.
2. CTRL + left mouse button — selects all symbols from a single provider. If you have multiple providers, this combination lets you quickly pick everything coming from one specific provider.
3. CTRL + SHIFT + left mouse button — selects the same symbol across all providers. For example, if you have 5 providers from different brokers, this combination selects XAUUSD from every one of them. The fastest way to move one and the same instrument from all providers to the right list.

Main Settings Window: Selected Symbols List and Symbol Mapping

After choosing providers and symbols, the main settings window opens. On the left side of the window is the list of all selected symbols. It shows two things at once:

1. Left of the arrow — the provider's symbol (as it is named at the source)
2. Right of the arrow — the client's symbol (as it is named at your broker)

For example:
EURUSD.ffx -> EURUSD
XAUUSD.ffx -> XAUUSD

Here you can clearly see that the provider's symbols have the suffix ".ffx", while the client's symbols have no suffix. The mapping worked automatically.

If any symbols in this list are marked in red — this is a signal: no matching symbol was found in the client terminal. In this case, automatic mapping could not resolve the match and manual mapping is required.

Main Settings Window: Highlighting Symbols for Flexible Configuration

On the left side of the main settings window is the list of selected symbols. Trades on these symbols are already set to be copied to the client. But within this list, you can highlight one or more symbols to flexibly configure their parameters.

The same hotkeys work here as in the previous window:

1. SHIFT + left mouse button — highlights a group of symbols
2. CTRL + left mouse button — highlights all symbols from one provider
3. CTRL + SHIFT + left mouse button — highlights the same symbol across all providers

The difference is that in this window, you are not moving symbols between lists — you are highlighting them for configuration. All settings you adjust in the right part of the window apply to all highlighted symbols at once.

For example, you can highlight only XAUUSD from all providers and set a separate volume multiplier for it. Or highlight all currency pairs from one provider and apply a common filter to them.

The "Highlight All" button below the list lets you quickly highlight all selected symbols and apply settings to the entire list at once.

Main Settings Window: Blue Marking for Setting Conflicts

When multiple symbols are highlighted in the left list, the program compares their current settings. If any setting differs among the highlighted symbols, the name of that setting is marked in blue in the right part of the window.

A blue marking is not an error — it is a helpful signal (a reminder). It says: "The highlighted symbols have different values for this setting. If you change it now, the new value will apply to all highlighted symbols equally." This protects you from accidentally overwriting settings you have already configured individually.

For example, you set XAUUSD with a multiplier of 2.0 and EURUSD with a multiplier of 1.0. Then you highlight both symbols. The "Multiplier" field will be marked in blue — the program warns that the values differ. If you now change the number in this field, both symbols will receive the new value.

If you see a blue marking and do not want to change that setting — simply leave it untouched. The different values will be preserved. If you do want to unify the setting for all highlighted symbols — go ahead and change the value. The blue marking will disappear.

Main Settings Window: Symbol Mapping

On the right side of the main settings window there is a menu with tabs. The "Symbol Mapping" tab opens the settings for matching provider and client symbols.

1. "Auto-mapping" checkbox — checked by default. The copier finds matches automatically. For example, XAUUSD.afx at the provider and XAUUSD at the client — auto-mapping will link them together.

If auto-mapping cannot resolve a match, the affected symbols are marked in red in the selected symbols list. That's when manual mapping comes in.

1. "Change Prefix" section — two fields:
   1. "Remove" — how many characters to strip from the beginning of the name. Example: value 1 for the symbol #XAUUSD → results in XAUUSD
   2. "Add" — what string to prepend to the name. Example: value «fx_» for XAUUSD → results in fx_XAUUSD

2. "Change Suffix" section — two fields:
   1. "Remove" — how many characters to strip from the end of the name. Example: value 4 for XAUUSD.afx → results in XAUUSD
   2. "Add" — what string to append to the name. Example: value «.pro» for XAUUSD → results in XAUUSD.pro

3. "Rename Symbol" field — complete name replacement. For example, the provider uses the symbol name XAUUSD, but the same symbol is called GOLD at the client. Enter «GOLD» — and the copier will open trades on the GOLD symbol in the client terminal.

Main Settings Window: "Opening Positions" Tab

The "Opening Positions" tab brings together the settings that determine which trades are copied to the client and how.

The tab is divided into two blocks:

1. Market orders — settings for copying market execution trades. You can enable or disable the entire group. You can separately allow or deny copying of Buy and Sell. Three numeric parameters can be adjusted: Shift, Range, and Slippage.
2. Pending orders — settings for copying pending orders. You can enable or disable the entire group. Six order types are available: Buy Limit, Sell Limit, Buy Stop, Sell Stop, Buy Stop Limit, and Sell Stop Limit — each can be turned on or off individually. Additionally, you can set the entry price Shift and Expiration (pending order lifetime).

All settings apply to the symbols highlighted in the left list. If you need different settings for different symbols — highlight them one by one and configure individually.

Main Settings Window: Market Order Entry Price Shift

In the "Opening Positions" tab, inside the "Market orders" block, there is a "Shift" parameter. It sets the entry price offset on the client relative to the provider's price. The value is specified in points.

1. Positive shift — better entry. For Buy — the order opens lower than the provider. For Sell — higher.
2. Negative shift — worse entry. For Buy — the order opens higher than the provider. For Sell — lower.

This lets you, for example, open trades on the client at a better price than the provider. Simply set a positive shift — and the copier will offset every order by the specified number of points.

The shift should not be too large. If the price moves in the opposite direction, the order may not be filled. A small offset increases the chance of execution while keeping the price advantage.

Main Settings Window: Market Order Price Range

In the "Opening Positions" tab, inside the "Market orders" block, there is a "Range" parameter. It sets the allowed deviation of the opening price on the client relative to the provider's price. The value is specified in points.

For example, on the provider, the Buy entry price for EURUSD is 1.16010. On the client, the price at that moment is 1.16020. The difference is 10 points. If the range is set to 10 points or more — the Buy position will open. If the range is less than 10 points — the position will not open.

If the price on the client is lower than the provider's price, the Buy position will open in any case. The range protects against opening at a worse price than the provider, but does not prevent opening at a better price.

Important: if the "Shift" parameter is set, the range is not used. These two parameters do not work together. You can either specify a fixed entry price shift or set an allowed deviation range — but not both at the same time.

Main Settings Window: Market Order Slippage

In the "Opening Positions" tab, inside the "Market orders" block, there is a "Slippage" parameter. This is the maximum acceptable slippage from the requested price when opening an order on the client. The value is specified in points.

In manual trading, this parameter is entered in the order opening window. The copier sends it along with the order. If the price on the client differs from the requested price by no more than the specified slippage, the order will be opened. If the price has moved further — the order will not open.

This parameter is not available in all execution modes. It depends on the account type and broker.

Main Settings Window: Pending Order Price Shift

In the "Opening Positions" tab, inside the "Pending orders" block, there is a "Shift" parameter. It works exactly the same as for market orders: it sets the price offset for pending orders on the client relative to the provider's price. The value is specified in points.

1. Positive shift — better entry. For Buy Limit and Buy Stop — the order is placed lower than the provider. For Sell Limit and Sell Stop — higher.
2. Negative shift — worse entry. For Buy Limit and Buy Stop — the order is placed higher than the provider. For Sell Limit and Sell Stop — lower.

This lets you, for example, place pending orders on the client at a better price than the provider. Simply set a positive shift — and the copier will offset every pending order by the specified number of points.

The shift should not be too large. If the price moves in the opposite direction, the pending order may not trigger. A small offset increases the chance of execution while keeping the price advantage.

Main Settings Window: Pending Order Expiration

In the "Opening Positions" tab, inside the "Pending orders" block, there is an "Expiration" checkbox. It controls the lifetime of pending orders on the client.

If the checkbox is enabled, the expiration time is copied from the provider. If the price does not reach the order level within this time, the order will be automatically deleted.

If the checkbox is disabled, the pending order is placed as GTC (Good till cancelled). It will remain active until the user cancels it or the order is triggered. This works if the symbol specification and broker support this expiration type.

Main Settings Window: "Filters" Tab

The "Filters" tab lets you set conditions under which trades will or will not be copied to the client. All elements work as filters: if a value exceeds the limit, the trade is not copied.

The tab contains the following elements:

1. Max spread — input field. Limits the maximum spread on the client. If the current spread is higher than the set value, the trade will not open.
2. Time limit — input field. Limits the time elapsed since the order was opened at the provider. If the time exceeds the limit, the trade is not copied.
3. Volumes — dropdown list with a [+] button. Filters orders by volume at the provider. Allows you to add specific volume values or value ranges.
4. Magic Numbers — dropdown list with a [+] button. Filters orders by the unique identifier assigned to the order at the provider.
5. Comments — dropdown list with a [+] button. Filters orders by the text comment assigned to the order at the provider.

The [+] button in dropdown lists lets you add a new value. You can set a whole list of values for filtering.
