TradersPost is a strong cloud platform for US brokers — but it has no MetaTrader support and per-account fees stack up fast. PineChord gives you native MT4/MT5 plus crypto, stocks & prop firms at a lower entry price.

TradersPost has no MetaTrader support at all, and its plans start at $49/mo with $10 per extra live account. PineChord gives you native MT4 & MT5 EAs and a 17-broker Bridge (crypto, stocks, prop firms) from a lower entry price, plus built-in copy trading.

MetaTrader-first, plus everything else
17 broker adapters
The PineChord Bridge desktop app connects forex, CFD, crypto spot & perps, stocks, and prop firms — vetted and maintained, not a generic webhook relay.
Impactor copy-trade hub
Signal providers push one alert and fan it out to every follower account automatically — built in, no third-party copier needed, especially clients never need a TradingView subscription.
Native MT5 socket push
Instead of only polling, the MT5 EA receives a direct TCP push on fills for tighter execution on fast moves.
Lower total cost
Entry at $20/mo with generous account slots, instead of $49/mo plus $10 for every extra live account.
Smart symbol matching
Exact → case-insensitive → broker prefix/suffix strip → full-symbol scan, so EURUSD.pro just works without manual mapping.
20% recurring affiliate
Refer traders and earn recurring commission — a real partner program, not a one-off coupon.

Common questions
Does TradersPost work with MetaTrader?
No — TradersPost does not support MT4 or MT5. If your TradingView strategy trades forex through a MetaTrader broker, you need a MetaTrader-native bridge like PineChord.
Is PineChord cheaper than TradersPost?
At entry level, yes. PineChord starts at $20/mo with account slots included, while TradersPost starts at $49/mo and adds $10 per extra live account. Your exact cost depends on how many accounts you run.
Can PineChord trade US stocks and crypto like TradersPost?
Yes. The PineChord Bridge covers Alpaca and TastyTrade for stocks/options, and nine crypto exchanges (Binance, Coinbase, Bybit, OKX, Kraken, KuCoin, MEXC, Bitget), plus DXtrade and Tradovate prop firms.
Do I have to run anything on my own computer?
For MetaTrader, the EA runs in your terminal (usually a VPS). For non-MT brokers, the PineChord Bridge desktop app runs locally or on a VPS. TradersPost is fully cloud, so for those specific brokers it requires nothing local — that's its main edge.
Which has better copy-trading?
PineChord's Impactor Hub is a purpose-built provider→follower system. TradersPost offers parallel execution across your own connected accounts, which is closer to multi-account routing than full copy-trading for an audience.
How to switch (it takes about 5 minutes)
Start a free PineChord trial.
Connect your broker — MetaTrader EA, or the Bridge desktop app for everything else.
Point your existing TradingView alert's webhook at PineChord and paste the signal template and PineChord license key. Your strategy itself doesn't change.
Fire a test alert and watch it execute.
That's it — your TradingView strategy now runs on whatever broker you actually use.
