# Tradovate Connection

> How to connect your Tradovate account to Edge Analyzer

Tradovate uses OAuth for secure authentication, making it one of the easiest platforms to connect.

## Prerequisites

* An active Tradovate account (demo or live)
* Access to your Tradovate login credentials

## Step-by-Step Connection

**1. Navigate to Connections**

Go to **Connections** in the sidebar and click **Add Connection**.

**2. Select Tradovate**

Choose **Tradovate** from the platform options.

**3. Enter Connection Name**

Give your connection a name (e.g., "Tradovate Live").

**4. Authorize**

Click **Authorize with Tradovate**. You'll be redirected to Tradovate's login page.

**5. Log In**

Enter your Tradovate credentials and approve the connection.

**6. Complete**

You'll be redirected back to Edge Analyzer with your connection active.

## OAuth Security

Tradovate uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication:

* Edge Analyzer never sees your Tradovate password
* You authorize directly with Tradovate
* You can revoke access anytime from your Tradovate account settings
* Tokens are automatically refreshed

## Account Types

Tradovate connections can include:

| Type | Description |
| - | - |
| Demo | Paper trading accounts for practice |
| Live | Real money trading accounts |

Both account types are fully supported for copy trading and journaling.

## Troubleshooting

> [accordion] OAuth popup blocked
>
> * Allow popups for app.edgeanalyzer.com
> * Try using a different browser
> * Disable popup blockers temporarily

> [accordion] Token expired
>
> * Tokens auto-refresh, but if issues persist, reconnect your account
> * Delete the connection and create a new one

> [accordion] Account not showing
>
> * Ensure your Tradovate account is active
> * Check if you have trading permissions enabled
> * Contact Tradovate support if issues persist
