CopyFactory trade copying API for javascript (a member ofmetaapi.cloud project)
CopyFactory is a powerful copy trading API which makes developing forex trade copying applications as easy as writing few lines of code.
CopyFactory API is a member of MetaApi project (https://metaapi.cloud), a powerful cloud forex trading API which supports both MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms.
MetaApi is a paid service, however we offer a free tier for testing and personal use.
TheMetaApi pricing was developed with the intent to make your charges less or equal to what you would have to payfor hosting your own infrastructure. This is possible because over time we managed to heavily optimizeour MetaTrader infrastructure. And with MetaApi you can save significantly on application development andmaintenance costs and time thanks to high-quality API, open-source SDKs and convenience of a cloud service.
We found that developing reliable and flexible trade copier is a taskwhich requires lots of effort, because developers have to solve a seriesof complex technical tasks to create a product.
We decided to share our product as it allows developers to start with apowerful solution in almost no time, saving on development andinfrastructure maintenance costs.
FAQ is located here:https://metaapi.cloud/docs/copyfactory/faq/

Please check Features section of thehttps://metaapi.cloud/docs/copyfactory/ documentation for detailed description of all settings you can make
CopyFactory SDK is built on top of CopyFactory REST API.
CopyFactory REST API docs are available athttps://metaapi.cloud/docs/copyfactory/
Please check this page for FAQ:https://metaapi.cloud/docs/copyfactory/faq/.
We published some code examples in our github repository, namely:
- #"https://github.com/agiliumtrade-ai/copyfactory-javascript-sdk/tree/master/examples">https://github.com/agiliumtrade-ai/copyfactory-javascript-sdk/tree/master/examples
npm install --save metaapi.cloud-sdk
npm install --save metaapi.cloud-sdk
<scriptsrc="unpkg.com/metaapi.cloud-sdk/index.js"></script><script>consttoken='...';constapi=newCopyFactory(token);</script>
Please visithttps://app.metaapi.cloud/token web UI to obtain your API token.
In order to configure trade copying you need to:
- add MetaApi MetaTrader accounts with CopyFactory as application field value (see above)
- create CopyFactory master and slave accounts and connect them to MetaApi accounts via connectionId field
- create a strategy being copied
- subscribe slave CopyFactory accounts to the strategy
importMetaApi,{CopyFactory}from'metaapi.cloud-sdk';consttoken='...';constmetaapi=newMetaApi(token);constcopyFactory=newCopyFactory(token);// retrieve MetaApi MetaTrader accounts with CopyFactory as application field value// master account must have PROVIDER value in copyFactoryRolesconstmasterMetaapiAccount=awaitapi.metatraderAccountApi.getAccount('masterMetaapiAccountId');if(!masterMetaapiAccount.copyFactoryRoles||!masterMetaapiAccount.copyFactoryRoles.includes('PROVIDER')){thrownewError('Please specify PROVIDER copyFactoryRoles value in your MetaApi account in '+'order to use it in CopyFactory API');}// slave account must have SUBSCRIBER value in copyFactoryRolesconstslaveMetaapiAccount=awaitapi.metatraderAccountApi.getAccount('slaveMetaapiAccountId');if(!slaveMetaapiAccount.copyFactoryRoles||!slaveMetaapiAccount.copyFactoryRoles.includes('SUBSCRIBER')){thrownewError('Please specify SUBSCRIBER copyFactoryRoles value in your MetaApi account in '+'order to use it in CopyFactory API');}letconfigurationApi=copyFactory.configurationApi;// create a strategy being copiedletstrategyId=awaitconfigurationApi.generateStrategyId();awaitconfigurationApi.updateStrategy(strategyId.id,{name:'Test strategy',description:'Some useful description about your strategy',accountId:masterMetaapiAccount.id,maxTradeRisk:0.1,timeSettings:{lifetimeInHours:192,openingIntervalInMinutes:5}});// subscribe slave CopyFactory accounts to the strategyawaitconfigurationApi.updateSubscriber(slaveMetaapiAccount.id,{name:'Demo account',subscriptions:[{strategyId:strategyId.id,multiplier:1}]});// retrieve list of strategiesconsole.log(awaitconfigurationApi.getStrategies())// retrieve list of provider portfoliosconsole.log(awaitconfigurationApi.getPortfolioStrategies())// retrieve list of subscribersconsole.log(awaitconfigurationApi.getSubscribers())
See esdoc in-code documentation for full definition of possible configuration options.
CopyFactory allows you to monitor transactions conducted on trading accounts in real time.
lethistoryApi=copyFactory.historyApi;// retrieve trading history, please note that this method support pagination and limits number of recordsconsole.log(awaithistoryApi.getProvidedTransactions(newDate('2020-08-01'),newDate('2020-09-01')));
lethistoryApi=copyFactory.historyApi;// retrieve trading history, please note that this method support pagination and limits number of recordsconsole.log(awaithistoryApi.getSubscriptionTransactions(newDate('2020-08-01'),newDate('2020-09-01')));
There is a configurable time limit during which the trades can be opened. Sometimes trades can not open in time due to broker errors or trading session time discrepancy.You can resynchronize a slave account to place such late trades. Please note that positions which wereclosed manually on a slave account will also be reopened during resynchronization.
letaccountId='...';// CopyFactory account id// resynchronize all strategiesawaitcopyFactory.tradingApi.resynchronize(accountId);// resynchronize specific strategyawaitcopyFactory.tradingApi.resynchronize(accountId,['ABCD']);
You can submit external trading signals to your trading strategy.
constaccountId='...';consttradingApi=copyFactory.tradingApi;constsignalId='...';// get signal clientconstsignalClient=awaittradingApi.getSignalClient(accountId);// add trading signalawaitsignalClient.updateExternalSignal(strategyId,signalId,{symbol:'EURUSD',type:'POSITION_TYPE_BUY',time:newDate(),volume:0.01});// get external signalsconsole.log(awaitsignalClient.getStrategyExternalSignals(strategyId));// remove signalawaitsignalClient.removeExternalSignal(strategyId,signalId,{time:newDate()});
constaccountId='...';constsignalClient=awaittradingApi.getSignalClient(accountId);// retrieve trading signalsconsole.log(awaitsignalClient.getTradingSignals());
A subscription to a strategy can be stopped if the strategy have exceeded allowed risk limit.
lettradingApi=copyFactory.tradingApi;letaccountId='...';// CopyFactory account idletstrategyId='...';// CopyFactory strategy id// retrieve list of strategy stopoutsconsole.log(awaittradingApi.getStopouts(accountId));// reset a stopout so that subscription can continueawaittradingApi.resetSubscriptionStopouts(accountId,strategyId,'daily-equity');
You can subscribe to a stream of stopout events using the stopout listener.
import{StopoutListener}from'metaapi.cloud-sdk';lettradingApi=copyFactory.tradingApi;// create a custom class based on the StopoutListenerclassListenerextendsStopoutListener{// specify the function called on event arrivalasynconStopout(strategyStopoutEvent){console.log('Strategy stopout event',strategyStopoutEvent);}// specify the function called on error eventasynconError(error){console.log('Error event',error);}}// add listenerconstlistener=newListener();constlistenerId=tradingApi.addStopoutListener(listener);// remove listenertradingApi.removeStopoutListener(listenerId);
lettradingApi=copyFactory.tradingApi;letaccountId='...';// CopyFactory account id// retrieve slave trading logconsole.log(awaittradingApi.getUserLog(accountId));// retrieve paginated slave trading log by time rangeconsole.log(awaittradingApi.getUserLog(accountId,newDate(Date.now()-24*60*60*1000),undefined,20,10));
You can subscribe to a stream of strategy or subscriber log events using the user log listener.
import{UserLogListener}from'metaapi.cloud-sdk';lettradingApi=copyFactory.tradingApi;// create a custom class based on the UserLogListenerclassListenerextendsUserLogListener{// specify the function called on event arrivalasynconUserLog(logEvent){console.log('Strategy user log event',logEvent);}// specify the function called on error eventasynconError(error){console.log('Error event',error);}}// add listenerconstlistener=newListener();constlistenerId=tradingApi.addStrategyLogListener(listener,'ABCD');// remove listenertradingApi.removeStrategyLogListener(listenerId);

You can subscribe to a stream of strategy or subscriber transaction events using the transaction listener.
import{TransactionListener}from'metaapi.cloud-sdk';lethistoryApi=copyFactory.historyApi;// create a custom class based on the TransactionListenerclassListenerextendsTransactionListener{// specify the function called on event arrivalasynconTransaction(transactionEvent){console.log('Strategy transaction event',transactionEvent);}// specify the function called on error eventasynconError(error){console.log('Error event',error);}}// add listenerconstlistener=newListener();constlistenerId=historyApi.addStrategyTransactionListener(listener,'ABCD');// remove listenerhistoryApi.removeStrategyTransactionListener(listenerId);
