Make sure to follow the step-by-step instructions that are listed below.
First Login to trader.tradovate.com

NOTE: Make SURE there are no spaces in your username and password, including at the beginning and end.
Here is what the login screen at trader.tradovate.com should look like. Enter your Tradovate Account credentials as shown.
2. There will be several disclaimers and agreements that you need to sign the first time you log in to Tradovate. Please agree to ALL on multiple pages. (This is vital as it will not activate your Tradovate data until you do so.)
Fill out your First and Last name and submit. Fill out First and Last name exactly as your name appears above the signature box. Once you sign and are in the Tradovate main dashboard, you must wait up to 4 hours for the data to be activated. This is usually activated much sooner, but please be aware. When the chart symbols go from orange to white, this means your data is activated, but you will need to login and return to trader.tradovate.com to see this update.
You can now trade directly on trader.tradovate.com! The following steps are OPTIONAL, just as trading on NinjaTrader with our Tradovate accounts are OPTIONAL.
