Symbol mapping

Match the sender's instrument names to each receiver's, so a master symbol copies correctly even when brokers name it differently.

Brokers don't always name the same instrument the same way — gold might be XAUUSD on one account and GOLD on another. Symbol mapping tells Trada which symbol on each receiver corresponds to each of the sender's symbols, so trades copy to the right instrument.

Open it from a copier's detail page with Map Symbols (enabled once a sender is configured). Mappings are specific to that copier.

The Map Symbols table mapping each master symbol to a symbol on each receiver, including XAUUSD mapped to GOLD
The Map Symbols table — each master symbol mapped per receiver. Here XAUUSD maps to GOLD on the second account.

The mapping table

Each row is one of the sender's symbols (the Master Symbol), with a column for every receiver showing the symbol it maps to on that account.

Column
What it does

Status

Enable or disable copying for this symbol.

Master Symbol

The sender's symbol (read-only).

[Receiver]

The mapped symbol on each receiver — editable.

Map symbols

  • Automap sets every receiver's mapping to match the master symbol name, with a progress bar while it runs. It can also suggest close matches (such as GOLD for XAUUSD).

  • To set a mapping by hand, choose Edit on a cell and pick the receiver's symbol from the dropdown of instruments available on that broker.

Changes save immediately — there's no Save button — and each change confirms with a toast. Use the search box to filter by master symbol name.

Enable or disable a symbol

The Status toggle controls whether a symbol copies at all:

  • Enabled — trades on this symbol copy to the receivers.

  • Disabled — trades on this symbol are not copied; the row dims. Use Enable All or Disable All to switch every symbol at once.

This gives you precise control over which instruments a copier actively replicates.

If a receiver's broker doesn't offer a mapped symbol, that instrument can't copy to that account. Check the mapping when a specific symbol fails to copy — the copier logs will show the failure.
