## Why choose Copilink Standalone

Copilink Standalone copies new leader activity to follower accounts with per-follower sizing, follower protection, and configurable account rules. Copying runs locally on the trader's machine, while cloud sync makes eligible history available for web analytics and journaling.

- Choose a direct Tradovate and Rithmic desktop workflow on Windows or macOS, or stay entirely inside NinjaTrader 8 with the dedicated add-on.
- Manage exact or ratio-based follower sizing, per-account safeguards, and prop-firm-style risk rules from one focused workflow.
- Keep copying local on the trader's machine while cloud sync powers web analytics and journaling.

## Account-first operating safeguards

- Profile activation begins with new supported activity and leaves existing positions untouched, giving traders a clear starting state.
- Each follower routes through its own broker and account environment; Copilink surfaces execution state so traders can confirm orders and positions.
- Flatten submits broker requests while the broker remains the source of record for account state.
- Live-data protections use current P&L and market data to apply configured account rules.
- Ratio sizing uses conservative whole-contract rounding and skips quantities below one contract.
- Copilink account safeguards complement broker and prop-firm controls.

## How it works

1. Install the Windows or macOS app and sign in with a Copilink account.
2. Connect supported Tradovate and/or Rithmic accounts.
3. Create a profile: one leader, one or more followers, sizing, protection, and risk rules.
4. Enable the profile only after leader and followers are in the intended state (usually flat).
5. Confirm positions and working orders using Copilink together with the broker's source-of-record view.

## Measured performance

~5 ms average internal follower-order event processing (4.91 ms count-weighted) across 2,171 follower-order events in five sessions recorded 9-11 September 2026.
