Manage the accounts in a connection
Where your broker accounts appear, how to pull in new ones, how to switch an account on so it copies, and where per-account sizing is set.
Updated
Every account you can trade sits under a connection. This is where you pull in new accounts, turn on the ones you want copying, and leave the rest idle.
Where your accounts appear
On the connections screen, each connection lists the accounts it can see, with a count of how many are active. Open a connection to see its full list and manage each account.
The account you trade yourself shows as the leader (marked Master); the rest are followers. That role is set elsewhere, not here. See Core concepts for what makes an account a leader or a follower.
Pulling in new accounts
When a prop firm adds an account to your login, or you pass an evaluation and get a funded account, it won't appear until OmenSyncer asks the broker for the latest list.
- Find the connection whose accounts changed.
- Trigger its Sync. OmenSyncer asks the broker for the current account list.
- Any new accounts appear under that connection. Existing ones are left as they are.
Turning an account on so it copies
A freshly synced account sits idle until you switch it on. Each account has its own on/off toggle.
| State | What happens |
|---|---|
| On | The account is active. A follower copies the leader; the leader drives its followers. |
| Off | The account is idle. It places no orders and is hidden from your Dashboard, Risk, and Groups views. |
The leader account can't be switched off from here, since it's the account everything else copies. Its toggle stays fixed while it holds the leader role.
Sizing lives on the account
Turning an account on makes it copy. How much it copies is set by its own multiplier, per account, not on the connection. The multiplier is a whole number from 1 to 100, so a multiplier of 2 doubles the leader's size. Full detail in Followers & multipliers.
