Head-to-head comparison · 2026
Copygram caps accounts at 2, 3 or 5 per plan. PickMyTrade is $50 a month for unlimited accounts under one broker login. Prices compared for 2026.
Summary
If your signals come from TradingView and you run more accounts than a plan tier allows, or you need Rithmic, ProjectX, Interactive Brokers, TradeStation or Tradier.
If your signals arrive by Telegram or from a MetaTrader master account, or you run two or three accounts and pay yearly.
Price
Copygram sells capacity. Each plan caps how many trading accounts you connect and how many TradingView webhooks you get, and the sending account counts toward the cap. PickMyTrade sells one plan at $50 a month with unlimited accounts under one broker login. So the comparison is not $49 against $50. It is a ceiling against no ceiling, and then the yearly price, where Copygram wins small setups.
| What you need | Copygram | PickMyTrade |
|---|---|---|
| Telegram or MetaTrader signals into 2 accounts | Starter, $29 a month, or $12.50 billed yearly | Not offered. No Telegram source, no MetaTrader |
| TradingView alerts into 3 accounts | Pro, $49 a month, or $20.50 billed yearly. TradingView webhooks start here, capped at 2 | $50 a month, unlimited accounts under one broker login |
| TradingView alerts into 5 accounts | Advanced, $79 a month, or $33 billed yearly, capped at 3 webhooks | $50 a month |
| More than five accounts under one login | No published price. It becomes a custom quote | $50 a month |
| Rithmic, ProjectX, Interactive Brokers, TradeStation or Tradier | Not offered. None of the five is on its platform list | The same $50 plan, whichever broker you choose. Each broker login is its own subscription |
| Free trial | None published. A refund is possible within 7 days, for first-time subscribers only, and only on proof the product is non-functional | 7 days, no credit card |
Billed yearly and inside its caps, Copygram is cheaper and we will not pretend otherwise. Pro at $20.50 a month is $246 over twelve months against our $500, and Advanced is $396 for up to five accounts. Those yearly prices are what its cards show, with $29, $49 and $79 beside them as list prices. We could not confirm which figure a card is charged at checkout.
What turns the arithmetic is the account cap. One PickMyTrade subscription covers unlimited accounts under one broker login, so five Apex accounts under a single Tradovate login all automate on one $50 subscription and a sixth costs nothing extra. Count your logins, though. Accounts spread across three separate broker logins mean three subscriptions, and Copygram's yearly Advanced plan may still be cheaper for you.

Why PickMyTrade
One subscription covers unlimited accounts under one broker login, each with its own position size on the same alert. Adding a sixth, tenth or twentieth account under that login does not move you up a tier, because there are no tiers. Multi-account guide.
Rithmic and ProjectX, including TopstepX, for futures and prop accounts. Interactive Brokers, TradeStation and Tradier for stocks and options. They all run on the same $50 plan with the same features, so you never move up a tier or to another product. Each broker login is its own subscription, so two logins means two. See the broker guides.
Daily and weekly profit and loss limits on each connected account, plus the hours automation is allowed to trade and a pause switch. Copygram has money management and a trading schedule; a daily or weekly loss limit is not among them. Set yours to match your firm's rules. Risk settings.
Stop loss and take profit by points, percentage, price, ticks or total profit and loss. Brackets and OCO, trailing stops on Tradovate and ProjectX, breakeven with an offset, stop and target changes on an open position, partial close and reverse. Trailing · Breakeven.
Seven days, full access, no credit card, and Tradovate connects by OAuth with no separate API subscription to buy first. Copygram asks for payment up front and offers a refund within seven days only to first-time subscribers, and only on demonstration that the product is non-functional. Tradovate FAQ.
Honest take
Copygram reads channel messages and turns them into orders. We have no Telegram source, and no plan to fake one.
Copygram covers those. No amount of feature depth fixes a missing broker.
Copygram copies from it. Our copier starts from a Tradovate admin account, and everything else from an alert.
Pro at $20.50 a month is $246 over twelve months against our $500. That is a real saving, and the honest reason to pick them.
Copygram parses loose message formats. We use a structured JSON message, which is one extra step at setup.
Switching
Start the 7-day trial and connect one broker. Sign in to Tradovate with OAuth, or follow the guide for Rithmic, ProjectX or whichever broker you trade.
Rebuild the alert, do not paste the old one. Generate the PickMyTrade alert message in the dashboard and put it in your TradingView alert with our webhook URL. Copygram's free-form text does not carry across.
Add accounts, then set sizing and exits. Choose which accounts under that login receive the alert and at what size, then set the stop, target and any trailing or breakeven rule.
Test on a demo account, then switch one account at a time. Fire one alert and check the order at the broker. Turn Copygram's room off for that account first, so only one tool is placing orders.
FAQ
Billed yearly and inside its account caps, yes. Copygram Pro works out to $246 over twelve months and Advanced to $396, against our $500. Billed monthly, PickMyTrade is $50 against $49 for three accounts and $79 for five. Above five accounts Copygram has no published price, and our $50 does not change.
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 login needs its own subscription, so count your logins before you compare totals.
No. PickMyTrade takes alerts from TradingView strategies and indicators, and from TrendSpider. There is no Telegram source and no MetaTrader source. If a Telegram channel is where your trades come from, Copygram does that job and we do not.
No. None of the three appears on its platform list as of 22 September 2026, and neither do TradeStation and Tradier. Copygram covers MetaTrader, DXTrade, TradeLocker, Match-Trader, Tradovate and NinjaTrader through Tradovate. PickMyTrade connects all eight of its brokers on the same plan, one subscription per broker login.
No. Copygram answers the free-trial question with a flat no in its contact FAQ, and its llms.txt says the same. Its refund policy allows a request within seven days, for first-time subscribers only, and only on demonstration that the product is non-functional. PickMyTrade gives seven days of full access with no card.
No. The dashboard generates the alert message and you paste it into TradingView. PickMyTrade does use a structured message rather than free-form text, which is a real difference from Copygram, but you are copying a generated string rather than writing one.
Yes, on the platforms it supports: any firm offering Tradovate, Rithmic or ProjectX accounts, including TopstepX. Firms set their own rules on automation and copy trading, and some forbid both, so check yours before you go live rather than after.
