Auto-Sync Engine

Auto-Sync is CrossTrade's continuous synchronization system that monitors and corrects position alignment between leader and follower accounts. Rather than requiring you to configure settings for every possible edge case—partial fills, missed signals, connection drops—Auto-Sync handles them automatically by constantly comparing follower positions against leader positions and correcting any discrepancies it finds.

Think of it as an insurance policy for your copier. If you accidentally close a position, lose connection, restart NinjaTrader, or encounter any other issue that breaks alignment, Auto-Sync detects the mismatch and fixes it on the next cycle. This eliminates the manual intervention and troubleshooting that plague traditional copiers.

How Auto-Sync Works

• Default interval: 103 seconds (minimum setting)

• Continuous monitoring: Compares follower positions to leader positions

• Automatic correction: Adjusts follower positions when misalignment detected

• Recovery capability: Restores sync after connection loss or NT8 restart

Manual Sync Options

• Sync Followers button: Immediate manual synchronization

• Available when: Auto-Sync is disabled or immediate sync needed

• Use cases: After manual position adjustments or configuration changes
