BadTrade Disciple FAQ
Everything you need to know about Trade Disciple. Can't find your answer? Contact us below.
Does Trade Disciple work with prop firm accounts?
Yes. Trade Disciple works with any account connected to NinjaTrader 8, including prop firm evaluation and funded accounts. Combined with Karma Guardian, you get automated risk protection for each account.
Do prop firms allow trade copiers?
Policies vary by firm — some allow copiers across your own accounts, others restrict or prohibit them. Check your firm's terms before copying trades. On the tool side, Stealth Mode strips Trade Disciple's order labels so copied orders carry no third-party tags on your order book.
Can I copy trades from a micro account to a standard account?
Yes. Cross Order works in both directions. Trade 1 ES on your master and your disciples receive 10 MES automatically. Works with ES/MES, NQ/MNQ, YM/MYM, RTY/M2K, CL/MCL, and GC/MGC.
What happens if an order fails to copy?
Trade Disciple retries failed submissions up to 3 times with exponential backoff. If NinjaTrader temporarily rejects an order, Trade Disciple automatically retries. You don't lose orders to temporary glitches.
Does it copy modifications and cancellations?
Yes. Every modification and cancellation on your master account is automatically mirrored to all disciples. When you change a price or quantity, all disciples update instantly. When you cancel, they cancel too.
How many accounts can I copy to?
Up to 20 disciple accounts from a single master account. Add or remove disciples in seconds. Scale without adding complexity.
Does Trade Disciple work with Karma Guardian?
Yes. Trade Disciple automatically checks Karma Guardian's lockout status before copying any order. If an account is locked, no orders are sent. Automatic. Seamless. No configuration needed.
What if I only want market orders on my disciples?
Enable Market Orders Only mode. Trade Disciple waits for your master order to fill, then fires market orders on all disciples. Your disciples get in when you get in.
