Summary
The short answer
If you are here because PickMyTrade does not do something you need, the answer is usually yes, and there is a better tool for that job. Stay if you automate TradingView alerts onto Tradovate, Rithmic or ProjectX accounts, run several accounts under one broker login, or want stocks, options, forex and CFDs from the same alerts. Leave for crypto, MetaTrader, a NinjaTrader 8 workflow or a built-in journal. This page names which tool, at what price.
Price
What PickMyTrade is, and the price it is measured at
PickMyTrade takes an alert from TradingView or TrendSpider and places the trade at your broker. It is $50 a month or $500 a year: one plan, every feature in it, no per-trade fees and no higher tier. The trial is 7 days of full access with no card.
The brokers are Tradovate, Rithmic and ProjectX including TopstepX for futures, Interactive Brokers, TradeStation and Tradier for stocks and options, and TradeLocker and Match-Trader for forex and CFDs. In the one price: the Tradovate copier with a multiplier per follower, one alert to many accounts at their own sizes, daily and weekly loss limits, trading-time windows, five ways to set stop loss and take profit, trailing stops, breakeven with an offset, partial closes, symbol mapping and futures rollover.
One subscription covers unlimited accounts under one broker login. Five Apex accounts under a single Tradovate login all automate on one $50 subscription; a second, separate broker login needs its own. That fact decides most of what follows: against a per-account tool we get cheaper as you add accounts to one login, and dearer as you add logins. Count your logins first.
Limits
What PickMyTrade does not do
You probably already know one of these. Here is the whole list, so you can judge the rest of the page by it.
No crypto. Not on any venue, at any price.
No MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5. There is no bridge, and none in anything we publish.
No Telegram as a signal source. Signals come from TradingView alerts or TrendSpider.
No built-in trade journal. Pairing a separate one is an extra subscription you should count.
No published public API and no documented endpoint to build against.
No NinjaTrader 8 add-on. NinjaTrader accounts that log in through Tradovate work with PickMyTrade's Tradovate integration, but nothing runs inside the NinjaTrader platform itself.
Interactive Brokers is not computer-off. TWS or IB Gateway plus the PickMyTrade IB application must keep running. Every other route runs in the cloud.
The copier is Tradovate only, admin account to followers, and never across platforms.
Prop-firm support is by platform, not by brand — any firm offering Tradovate, Rithmic or ProjectX accounts. Firms set their own automation rules, so check yours.
The alternatives
The alternatives, by the job you need done
Each price below is the figure that decides the choice. The full ladder is in the table.
NinjaTrader 8 workflows
Replikanto, from FlowBots, is the NinjaTrader copier. It is licensed one-time against a NinjaTrader Machine ID rather than per account, from $249, with a 7-day trial. It is the cheapest answer by a distance on one machine, and it documents no daily loss limits, profit targets or trading windows, so prop-firm risk rules stay yours to enforce. CrossTrade is the other route: a native NinjaTrader 8 add-on plus cloud routing to Tradovate, from $29 a month, though its copier and risk controls start on the $49 tier and its VPS is billed separately.
MetaTrader strategies
PineConnector is the established TradingView-to-MetaTrader bridge, from $59 a month with one hosted MetaTrader instance in every plan. Two things to know first: it removed its free trial on 17 September 2026, and no tier includes a master-to-follower copier. AlgoWay prices by route, from $9 a month for one TradingView route, which suits one or two routes and stops suiting you at about six. Its loss limit, drawdown and session controls run inside a MetaTrader expert advisor, so a terminal has to stay running.
Crypto
3Commas is the broad bot platform; futures start on its $50 tier, and it replaced its v1 platform on 11 September 2026, so older reviews describe a product that no longer exists. Cornix is built around copying Telegram signal groups and gives you 14 days of its top plan with no card. WunderTrading gates how many accounts one signal reaches, from a free plan up, so it is the cheap option for a single account. None of the three reaches CME futures, equities or options, and we reach no crypto. This is a clean split, not a contest.
A journal or an API in the same subscription
CrossTrade includes a trade journal and a documented REST API on every plan from $29. TradeSyncer includes a copier, journal, risk tools and economic calendar on every tier from $49, with a 7-day trial that needs a card. One caveat if you are coming from us: it copies trades placed on a lead account and documents no TradingView alert input, so an alert-driven trader needs a second tool beside it, and the pair costs more than one of ours.
Per-account, per-connection and per-signal pricing
This is where the arithmetic goes either way. TradersPost charges by live account and by asset class, plus $10 a month per extra account; it reaches crypto and retail stock brokers we do not, lists no Rithmic, TradeLocker or Match-Trader, and its 7-day trial automates paper accounts only. SignalStack meters orders rather than accounts and is free for life up to five a month, with unlimited free broker connections. Tradecopia tiers by where it runs, and the detail most comparisons miss is that computer-off running, TradingView webhooks and its Hard Lock all start on its middle tier. Copygram parses free-form Telegram messages too, but its tiers cap accounts and webhooks, its cheapest cannot take a TradingView alert at all, and its own FAQ states there is no free trial.
Tradovate only, at the lowest price
RoboQuant Connect is a single flat plan at $39.90 a month or $199 a year, cloud-hosted, covering any number of Tradovate accounts, with 7 days free. If you only ever use Tradovate and need no weekly limits, trading windows, trailing stops, breakeven rules or second platform, it is $10.10 a month and $301 a year cheaper than us, and there is no point pretending otherwise.

Honest take
When another tool is the better choice
Crypto.
No version of PickMyTrade helps you. 3Commas, Cornix or WunderTrading, or TradersPost for crypto and futures on one bill.
MetaTrader.
PineConnector or AlgoWay. We have no bridge and nothing to point you to instead.
Inside NinjaTrader 8.
Replikanto for copying on one machine, CrossTrade for the add-on plus cloud routing.
A journal or an API on the same invoice.
CrossTrade from $29, or TradeSyncer from $49 for the journal. We have neither.
Very few orders.
SignalStack is free up to five a month and $27 for fifty, so below roughly fifty orders it beats $50 on simple arithmetic.
Accounts under several separate broker logins.
Ours is per login, so four logins is four subscriptions. A per-connection tool such as TradeSyncer, or a per-machine licence such as Replikanto, can genuinely come out cheaper. This is where we most often lose on price.
Switching
If you are cancelling, do it in this order
- 1
Turn the automation off before you cancel anything. Pause automation for the accounts you are moving, so nothing fires while you are half-migrated.
- 2
Rebuild the alert in the new tool on a demo account first. No two tools share an alert format. Your PickMyTrade JSON will not work as it is anywhere else, and a vendor's converter still needs checking order by order.
- 3
Re-create the exits and risk rules by hand. Stop loss and take profit methods, trailing rules, breakeven offsets, daily and weekly limits and trading windows do not transfer. Several tools above have no loss limits at all, so confirm the rule you rely on still exists.
- 4
Switch one account at a time, with only one tool armed. Confirm the order at your broker, then move the next. Two tools connected to the same account will both place the trade.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the best alternative to PickMyTrade?
There is no single best one, because these tools split by market rather than by quality. Crypto: 3Commas, Cornix or WunderTrading. MetaTrader: PineConnector or AlgoWay. A NinjaTrader 8 workflow: Replikanto or CrossTrade. A journal in the same subscription: CrossTrade or TradeSyncer. Very low order volume: SignalStack.
Is there a cheaper alternative to PickMyTrade?
Yes, several, and each is cheaper because it covers less. RoboQuant Connect is $39.90 a month for Tradovate only. SignalStack is free up to five orders a month and $27 for fifty. AlgoWay starts at $9 a month for one TradingView route. WunderTrading has a free plan. All figures checked 22 September 2026.
Does PickMyTrade support crypto or MetaTrader?
No to both. PickMyTrade covers futures on Tradovate, Rithmic and ProjectX, stocks and options on Interactive Brokers, TradeStation and Tradier, and forex and CFDs on TradeLocker and Match-Trader. If crypto or a MetaTrader bridge is what you need, the tools named on this page do it and we do not.
Can I use PickMyTrade with NinjaTrader?
NinjaTrader accounts that log in through Tradovate work with PickMyTrade's Tradovate integration. There is no NinjaTrader 8 add-on, so if your strategy, ATM templates or copying live inside the NinjaTrader platform itself, Replikanto and CrossTrade are the tools built for that.
How much does PickMyTrade cost, and is there a free trial?
$50 per month or $500 per year, one plan, every feature included, with no per-trade fees and no higher tier. The free trial is 7 days with full access and no credit card. If you have seen a different trial length or annual price quoted for us elsewhere, the figures on pickmytrade.trade are the correct ones.
How many accounts does one PickMyTrade subscription cover?
One subscription covers unlimited accounts under one broker login. Five Apex accounts under a single Tradovate login all automate on one $50 subscription. If your accounts sit under separate broker logins, each needs its own subscription, and that is where a per-account or per-connection rival can work out cheaper.
