FundedNext Futures Tradovate Connection Guide (2025)

Introduction

Looking to trade a funded futures account through Tradovate? This guide explains how to connect your FundedNext Futures account to Tradovate in 2025. We’ll also cover how to automate your trades using PickMyTrade.trade, a popular third-party tool for algorithmic trading.

How to Connect Your FundedNext Futures Account to Tradovate

FundedNext offers funded accounts for futures trading after completing their one-step evaluation challenge. Follow these steps to connect your funded account to the Tradovate platform.

Step 1: Purchase a FundedNext Futures Account

Visit fundednext.com and register for the Futures Challenge.
You can choose from $25,000, $50,000, or $100,000 account sizes.
This is a one-step evaluation model with no time limit.

Step 2: Access Your Funded Account Credentials

Once funded, log into your FundedNext dashboard.
Click “View” next to your account credentials.
Copy your username and master password carefully.

Step 3: Open Tradovate Web Platform

Go to trader.tradovate.com.
For your first login, use the web version (not the desktop app).
This is important because the initial setup involves agreement signing.

Step 4: Complete Required Agreements

Tradovate will prompt you to fill out and sign several forms:

Contact information
Market Data Subscriber Certification
Uniform Subscriber Agreement
E-sign consent
End User License Agreement

After completing these, click “Access Simulation.”

Step 5: Enable Market Data Access

You’ll be asked to accept real-time market data for CME, CBOT, NYMEX, and other exchanges.
Once accepted, your account will be updated with live data.

Step 6: Verify Your Funded Account

After login, check that the correct simulation account appears in Tradovate.
Ensure that market data is loading and that your credentials match your FundedNext dashboard.
You’re now ready to trade.

Using TradingView with FundedNext Futures

You can also connect your FundedNext-funded Tradovate account to TradingView for seamless chart-based execution. Here’s how:

Open TradingView
Go to the Trading Panel (at the bottom of the screen)
Click on Tradovate
Log in under the Demo tab using the same credentials from your FundedNext dashboard
Once connected, you’ll be able to place trades directly from your TradingView charts using your funded Tradovate account

⚠️ Note:
You must purchase the TradingView Add-On from FundedNext to enable this feature. It’s not included by default in your challenge purchase.
