How can I copy trades between two or more machines over the Internet?

Overview

Replikanto has a feature that allows it to receive trades from another Replikanto via the internet (when both are inaccessible via LAN - local network). In this case, you can send trades from a Replikanto to another Replikanto running anywhere in the world. Because it is necessary to use our servers to send the trades, the leader Replikanto must have credits that are used to send the trades, and all Replikantos must have valid licenses.

Prerequisites

Before setting up remote copy trading, ensure you have:

• Valid licenses: All Replikanto instances (leader and followers) must have active licenses
• Credits: The leader Replikanto must have sufficient credits to send trades remotely. Credits can be purchased here. For more details about credit requirements, see Are credits for sending remote trades necessary for the leader or follower?
• Internet connection: Both machines must have stable internet connections
• Remote Replikanto ID: You will need the follower is Remote ID to configure the leader. See How can I find my Replikanto Remote ID?

Note: For information about the challenges and limitations of remote copy trading, see The challenges of using remote copy trading. If your machines are on the same local network, consider using local network copy trading instead, which does not require credits.

Finding Your Remote Replikanto ID

Each Replikanto instance has a unique Remote ID that identifies it for remote connections. To find your Remote ID:

1. Open Replikanto on the machine
2. Look for the Remote ID displayed in the main interface
3. Note this ID - you will need to provide it to the leader Replikanto

Setting Up the Follower

To configure the Replikanto follower to become a client receiving trades from another Replikanto using the internet:

1. Open Replikanto on the follower machine
2. Enable the Internet Follower option in the settings
3. Select the follower accounts that will be copying the Replikanto leader is trades
4. Apply the settings

Important: Do not forget to select the follower accounts that will be copying the Replikanto leader is trades.

Setting Up the Leader

After setting up the Replikanto follower, you will need to configure the leader to send trades to the remote follower:

1. Open Replikanto on the leader machine
2. Locate the node list on the right side of the window
3. Register the follower is Remote Replikanto ID in your list of nodes
4. Click on the circle next to the node to enable sending trades to the remote node

The circle should light up, indicating that remote trade sending is enabled for this node.

Testing the Connection

After configuring both the follower and leader:

1. Send a test trade to the leader account set up in the leader Replikanto
2. Use the same instrument selected in both configurations
3. Verify that the trade arrives in the follower Replikanto
4. Check that the position size and other parameters match

If the trade does not arrive, see the Troubleshooting section below.

Troubleshooting

If remote trades are not copying to your followers:

• Verify both Replikanto instances have valid licenses
• Check that the leader has sufficient credits
• Ensure the Remote Replikanto ID is correctly entered in the leader is node list
• Confirm the circle next to the node is lit up (enabled)
• Check your internet connection on both machines
• Verify that follower accounts are properly selected
