Connection, account and copy link: what is the difference?
A connection is your login to a platform and brings in every account behind it. A copy link pairs a leader with a follower and holds that follower’s settings.
Connection
You add it in the Connections List with Add Connection: the login your broker or prop firm gave you, on Rithmic, Tradovate, cTrader or any other platform. Once it loads, every trading account behind that login shows up in Thor.
Copy link
You add it in the Accounts List with Add Account. Each row is one copy link: the leader to copy, the follower that receives the trades, and the follower’s settings (multiplier, stop loss, profit goal, copy mode, reverse, on or off).
Add your connections first, then build the copy links on top of them. A follower can have its own copy link to each of several leaders.
