Pro+ Lite is Tradecopia's entry-level cloud plan — it delivers the full Tradecopia feature set in a browser-based environment, without requiring a locally installed application, at a lower price point than Pro+.
How Pro+ Lite differs from the desktop Pro plan
Both plans give you the same copy trading functionality, broker connections, and risk management tools. The difference is where the software runs and what additional features are available as a result.
With the desktop Pro plan, Tradecopia runs as an application on your own computer. Replication depends on your machine staying powered on and your internet connection remaining stable throughout your trading session.
With Pro+ Lite, Tradecopia runs in a cloud environment managed by Tradecopia. Your trading setup — your groups, your accounts, your settings — is your own. No other user can see or access your environment. Because the software runs remotely, your local machine and connection are no longer factors in replication performance.

How Pro+ Lite differs from Pro+
Both Pro+ Lite and Pro+ are cloud plans with identical features. The difference is in the underlying infrastructure, which is reflected in the price.
Pro+ runs on a fully dedicated server allocated solely to your account. No server resources are shared.
Pro+ Lite runs on dedicated cloud instances that share underlying server capacity with other Pro+ Lite users for efficiency. Your trading environment is still isolated — your data, trades, groups, and settings are not accessible to or shared with other users. The resource pooling happens at the infrastructure level, not at the application level. You experience Pro+ Lite as your own environment.
This model allows Pro+ Lite to be offered at a lower price than Pro+. It is meaningfully different from multi-tenant trade copiers, where multiple users' trades literally run inside the same application environment. Pro+ Lite does not work that way — your instance is yours.

Infrastructure | Dedicated instances with pooled server resources | Fully dedicated server per user |
Your environment | Isolated | Isolated |
Features | Full feature set | Full feature set |
Hard Lock | Available | Available |
Price | Lower | Higher |

Hard Lock — see the section below
Browser-based access from any device, including mobile
Hard Lock
Hard Lock is a feature available on cloud plans only (Pro+ Lite and Pro+). It is not available on the desktop Pro plan.
Hard Lock allows you to lock your account so that no new trades can be placed until the lock is lifted. You set the lock for a defined period. The lock expires automatically when the timer runs out — it cannot be removed early.
Hard Lock is designed for traders who want to enforce a cooling-off period, manage their own trading discipline, or stay within prop firm risk rules by preventing trading outside planned sessions.
Broker support on Pro+ Lite
Pro+ Lite supports all four brokers Tradecopia integrates with: Tradovate, NinjaTrader, TopStepX, and Rithmic. Broker behaviour is identical across the desktop Pro plan, Pro+, and Pro+ Lite — there are no differences in connection setup, replication, or risk management by plan. If you are already connected on the desktop plan, the same credentials and setup steps apply on Pro+ Lite.
Free trial
A free trial is not currently available for Pro+ Lite. The desktop Pro plan includes a 7-day free trial for new customers. For the latest on cloud plan trial availability, check the pricing page at tradecopia.com/pricing.

How to access Pro+ Lite
Pro+ Lite runs in your browser — no software installation required. Log in to your account at tradecopia.com to access your cloud instance. Your Pro+ Lite environment is ready as soon as your subscription is active.
Because Pro+ Lite runs on Tradecopia's infrastructure, you do not need to keep your own computer running during a trading session. You can close your laptop, switch devices, or access your setup from any location with an internet connection.
