2. **Let the trades arrive**

3. **Review and test**
   Tag the setup, watch the drawdown on that account, and test the next idea on futures candles.

Worth knowing

## The seal waits for the cash ledger to agree.

Tradovate trades are rebuilt from fills, so a connected account earns the verified seal only when those trades reconcile with Tradovate's own cash ledger. Until they do, the account still syncs and its trades stay unverified.

FAQ

### Does DT Terminal sync with Tradovate?

Yes. Sign in with your Tradovate credentials and the account connects read-only. Free syncs one account into your journal hourly, and Plus and Pro link more accounts and sync on demand.

### My prop firm runs on Tradovate. Can I add the account?

Yes. The futures firms that run on Tradovate are in the catalogue, so pick the firm, sign in with the Tradovate credentials it gave you, and the evaluation syncs under that firm's name. You can also import it by CSV or log it by hand.

### Which Tradovate export does the import read?

The Performance export saved as CSV, which the importer parses on its own. Free imports 50 trades a batch, Plus and Pro import without limit.

### How is commission handled?

Set a rate per contract, or a flat rate per trade, at import and it is applied to every trade in the batch. The stored result is net of it.

### Can I publish a funded futures record?

Yes. A connected account earns the verified seal only when its trades reconcile with Tradovate's own cash ledger. Imported and typed trades publish as self-reported.

## Connect the evaluation you are trading now.

Free on one account, and the record stays yours whatever the firm decides.
