What you’ll need
Before you start
Tradovate credentials
Either log in with your Tradovate login and password or via Google.
OAuth approval
Approve TraderWaves scopes — passwords stay on Tradovate-hosted pages.
How the connection works
Overview
TraderWaves launches the Tradovate OAuth authorization flow. Once approved, secure access tokens allow eligible trade activity to sync into your TraderWaves journal and analytics without storing your Tradovate password.
Step-by-step setup
Walkthrough
- Select Tradovate inside TraderWaves.
- Click Connect with Tradovate to open the official authorization screen.
- Log in through Tradovate OAuth.
- Return to TraderWaves after the redirect succeeds and confirm in TraderWaves the account you wanted to connect.
- Wait for the initial sync to complete.



What happens after connecting
After sync
Once connected, your Tradovate trades can automatically sync into TraderWaves so you can review performance, analyse trade history, add journal notes, and compare activity alongside your other accounts.
Security and permissions
Trust & access
TraderWaves uses the official OAuth authorization flow for this connection. Your login password is not entered directly into TraderWaves, and access is managed through secure authorization tokens.
Prefer manual trade tracking?
TraderWaves also supports manual trade journaling when you want full control over how trades are logged.
