Overview

InnovaTrading supports connecting multiple trading accounts simultaneously. This is perfect for:
  • Managing demo and live accounts side by side
  • Tracking accounts across different brokers
  • Running multiple strategies on separate accounts
  • Professional traders with prop firm accounts

​
How It Works

Each account needs its own API token: All accounts appear in your unified dashboard, but data is kept separate.

​
Setup Multiple Accounts

1

Generate Token for First Account

Go to Connections and create a token.Name it descriptively: “ICMarkets Live”
2

Install EA on First Terminal

Follow the installation guide with this token.Wait until the account shows as Connected.
3

Generate Token for Second Account

Click + New Connection again to generate another token.Name it: “Pepperstone Demo”
4

Install EA on Second Terminal

On your second MT4/MT5 installation, attach the EA with the second token.
5

Repeat for Additional Accounts

Generate a new token for each account you want to connect.
Each token automatically locks to its account on first use. You cannot reuse a token for a different account.

​
Dashboard View

Once connected, all accounts appear in your dashboard: 
┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Connections                                                 │
├────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ ▶ #12345 • ICMarkets-Live          [Connected]    2m ago   │
│ ▶ #67890 • Pepperstone-Demo        [Connected]    5m ago   │
│ ▶ #11111 • FTMO-Challenge          [Offline]      2h ago   │
│ 🔑 Token "New Account"              [Pending]              │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

​
Switching Between Accounts

On the InnovaTrading platform, you can switch between accounts to view:
  • InnovaCharts: Uses data from any connected account
  • Dashboard: Shows statistics per account
  • Audit: Trade history per account
  • Analytics: Performance metrics per account
Use the account selector in the top navigation to switch between connected accounts.

​
Same Broker, Multiple Accounts

You can connect multiple accounts from the same broker:
AccountTokenStatus
ICMarkets #12345 (Live)Token AConnected
ICMarkets #67890 (Demo)Token BConnected
ICMarkets #11111 (Contest)Token CPending
Just make sure each account has its own unique token.

​
Same Terminal, Multiple EAs

You can only attach one EA per chart in MetaTrader. However, you can:
Option 1: Multiple Charts
  • Open multiple charts in the same terminal
  • Attach a different EA instance to each chart
  • Each with a different token
Option 2: Multiple Terminal Installations
  • Install MT4/MT5 multiple times in different folders
  • Run each installation simultaneously
  • More reliable for production use
Recommendation: For serious multi-account management, use multiple terminal installations or a VPS for each account.

​
VPS Multi-Account

For 24/7 monitoring of multiple accounts:
1

Set Up VPS

Get a VPS (Windows Server recommended) with sufficient resources:
  • 1 GB RAM per MT4/MT5 instance
  • 20 GB storage minimum
2

Install Multiple Terminals

Install MT4/MT5 in separate folders:
C:\MT5_ICMarkets\
C:\MT5_Pepperstone\
C:\MT4_FTMO\
3

Generate Tokens

Create a unique token for each account
4

Configure Each Terminal

Follow the EA installation guide for each
5

Set Auto-Start

Configure Windows Task Scheduler to start each terminal on system boot

​
Aggregate Analytics

  • Combined equity curve across all accounts
  • Per-account breakdown of performance

Cause: Account selector not switched.Fix: Use the account selector dropdown to switch to the correct account.
