Getting Started

From signup to your first copied trade in under five minutes.

  1. 1

    Sign Up

    Create your account with email or Google. No credit card required for the free tier. You will land on your personal dashboard immediately after signup.

  2. 2

    Link Your Broker Account

    Navigate to Accounts and connect your Rithmic-compatible broker (Apex Trader Funding, Lucid, or any Rithmic gateway). Enter your Rithmic username, password, and gateway URL. Credentials are stored locally on your machine and never sent to TradeVibe servers.

  3. 3

    Browse the Marketplace

    Open the Marketplace tab to explore published strategies. Each listing shows historical win rate, profit factor, instruments traded, and subscriber count. Sort by performance, popularity, or recency.

  4. 4

    Subscribe to a Strategy

    Click Subscribe on any strategy that fits your risk profile. Your plan tier determines how many strategies you can follow and the maximum strategy price you can access.

  5. 5

    Activate Copy Trading

    Once subscribed, open Accounts and toggle Copy Trading on for the broker account you want to receive trades. Choose same-instrument or micro mapping (e.g. ES signals executed as MES on your account).

  6. 6

    Monitor Your Dashboard

    Your dashboard shows live positions, equity curve, daily P&L, and an event log of every signal received. Use the kill switch to flatten all positions instantly if needed.
