Tradecopia supports futures markets only. Within futures, Tradecopia replicates whatever the leader executes. There is no instrument-level whitelist inside Tradecopia's engine. Whether a specific instrument is available, executable, or within contract size limits on any given account is controlled by the prop firm and broker for that account, not by Tradecopia.

Tradecopia does not currently support forex, equities, options, or crypto. Expansion to additional markets is on the roadmap but has no confirmed timeline.

Within futures: if the leader executes a futures order, Tradecopia relays that instruction to all followers in the copy group. Each broker then processes the request independently. If the instrument is supported and within limits on that account, the order fills. If not, the broker rejects it.

Tradecopia is a replication engine. It does not decide which instruments are available to you. That is determined at two levels above Tradecopia:

Before trading any instrument through a copy group, confirm that every account in the group supports that instrument. Tradecopia cannot verify instrument support across different prop firms and brokers on your behalf.

Check the following before trading a new instrument:

Replication failures caused by prop firm or broker restrictions are not Tradecopia errors. They appear as follower orders not filling, but the cause is instrument availability or contract size at the firm level.

Prop firms periodically update their tradeable instrument lists and contract size limits, sometimes without advance notice.

Instrument restrictions: Some prop firms have introduced restrictions on certain instruments. Metals (Gold, Silver in particular) have been restricted by multiple firms. An instrument you have traded successfully before may be restricted on a future session without warning.

Contract size reductions: Firms occasionally reduce the maximum contract size allowed per instrument. An order that previously filled may be rejected if the firm has lowered the limit since your last session.

The only reliable source for current restrictions is your prop firm directly. Monitor their announcements, newsletters, and platform notifications actively.

When Tradecopia relays a leader's order to a follower and the follower's broker rejects it for an unsupported instrument, exceeded contract size, or any other firm-level restriction, Tradecopia records the attempt but cannot override the rejection. The follower's order does not fill.

One important edge case: If the leader's broker rejects the leader's order for any reason, Tradecopia still relays the instruction to all followers. Each broker processes it independently. If a follower's broker accepts the order while the leader's broker rejected it, the follower will hold an open position the leader does not. This creates a position mismatch.

The Position Reconciler is designed to detect and automatically exit these mismatches. See How the Position Reconciler protects your follower accounts for how this works.

You choose the contract, and Tradecopia does not roll it for you. You can trade the front-month contract or a continuous contract. Tradecopia does not restrict which you use, and it does not roll contracts over on your behalf. It replicates whatever contract you execute: the moment you place an order, Tradecopia identifies the contract, matches it to the equivalent contract on each follower's broker, and routes it. Because it pairs the leader and followers on the executed contract, your accounts stay in sync as long as they roll at the same time.

Futures contracts expire on a regular schedule and must be rolled to the new front-month contract. Different brokers and platforms roll at different times. If the leader has rolled to the new contract but a follower is still on the expiring one, or vice versa, replication will misfire because the two accounts are trading different contract symbols. When brokers roll at different times, see Why did replication fail during a futures contract rollover? for how to resync, including a known TopStepX timing issue and its workaround.
