Yes, Replikanto provides a feature designed to copy only filled market orders to follower accounts, called Market Only. This mode is ideal when you want to replicate only the executions that actually occur in the leader account, ignoring other order types such as limit orders or stop orders that may never be filled.
How Market Only Works
When Market Only mode is enabled, Replikanto's behavior changes significantly:
- Every leader execution is copied — When any order in the leader account is filled (market, limit or stop, including a stop loss or profit target that fills), that execution is sent to the Market Only follower accounts as a market order. When the leader closes the position with NinjaTrader's Close, the Market Only followers are flattened instead.
- Limit and stop orders are ignored — Pending orders (limit orders, stop-limit orders, and stop orders) placed in the leader account are not transmitted to followers. Only the actual filled executions trigger replication.
- Works with all follower types — The Market Only feature functions with both local followers (on the same machine) and remote followers (on different machines).
Use Cases
Market Only is particularly useful in several trading scenarios:
- Avoiding false signals — Limit orders placed in the leader account that are never filled will not generate any activity in follower accounts. This prevents followers from entering positions based on orders the leader never actually executed.
- Execution-focused replication — When you only care about the positions that are actually entered (not the orders that were placed but not filled), Market Only ensures followers mirror only real trading activity.
Important Considerations
Before using Market Only, be aware of the following limitations:
- ATM Copy and Market Only cannot be on together — On the same follower account, ATM Copy and Market Only cannot be on at the same time, and neither one turns the other off for you. While Market Only is on, that account's ATM Copy cell is dimmed and clicking it does nothing; its tooltip reads: "ATM is unavailable while Market Only is on for this follower account. Turn Market Only off to use ATM." The reverse also applies: turn ATM Copy off before turning Market Only on.
- Version requirement — Market Only is available starting from Replikanto version 1.6. Ensure your installation meets this requirement.
- Order management difference — Since pending orders are not copied, followers will not see the same order book as the leader. They only see the final executed positions.
- Your responsibility: You remain responsible for complying with all applicable broker, platform and prop firm rules and account agreements.
This feature provides a streamlined way to ensure that only actual market executions are replicated to follower accounts, filtering out all other order types that may never result in a filled position.
