How to Connect TradersPost to Bucko (Step-by-Step Setup Guide)

Choose the platform shown on your broker account before following any setup instructions. A prop-firm name alone does not identify the platform. Open “I use Tradovate” or “I use ProjectX” in the collapsed setup questions below; the other platform’s steps are not prerequisites.

Two separate automatic routes

Automatic Tradovate monitored brackets are available through explicit account setup. Manual TradersPost tickets, standalone stop replacement and legacy trailing automation remain unavailable. The ProjectX route is a separate entry relay; connecting Tradovate does not select that relay or change a saved account’s route.

Before saving a route

Use a dedicated TradersPost strategy/webhook for exactly one broker account. Keep the webhook private. In Monko Settings → Copy Trading, edit the destination that belongs to that account and review its saved mode. A saved acknowledgement is not a broker fill or a universal readiness check.

Changing a webhook or account binding requires a fresh acknowledgement. Merely viewing another platform’s instructions must not switch your mode, enable trading or clear a saved acknowledgement. For multiple platforms, review each account separately.

Read delivery and execution separately

A TradersPost acknowledgement means a signal was received. It does not confirm that the broker accepted or filled an entry or attached protection. Unknown delivery is held rather than retried automatically. Do not resend an unresolved signal or delete its route to bypass that hold.

For a Tradovate read error, use Reconnect on the existing login row in Station. An expired connection still belongs to the Tradovate setup; it is not a reason to select ProjectX. Check positions and working orders directly in the platform while broker reads are unavailable.

Pausing future entries does not close existing positions or cancel working orders. Review the route’s own status and recovery instructions for an unresolved execution.

Provider references

The TradersPost website describes its service; supported Monko routes and account requirements are narrower than a provider compatibility list. The ProjectX section below is supported by TradersPost ProjectX limitations and TopstepX platform risk settings.

For a fuller explanation of account bindings, order states and the available controls, see the Monko onboarding guide.

Expand the matching setup question. If you use both platforms, follow each account’s saved route independently.
