🔑 Credential Issues
Wrong Username or Password when accessing your Tradeify Dashboard
Double-Check Your Credentials
- Find your credentials at the top of your dashboard
- Copy and paste credentials (don't type manually)
- Check for extra spaces at beginning or end
- Verify capitalization - usernames often all lowercase
- Look for special characters that might be confusing (0 vs O, 1 vs l)
Platform-Specific Credential Formats
Tradovate : Username and Password are located at the top of your tradeify dashboard once you login. Make sure you copy and paste them directly from there using the copy function to avoid spacing and typing issues.
TradingView Integration : Uses same credentials as direct Tradovate login - Must select "Demo" connection type - Case-sensitive for both username and password
Section: Platform-Specific Credential Formats
− NinjaTrader : Uses same credentials as direct Tradovate login - Must select "Demo" connection type - Case-sensitive for both username and password
+ NinjaTrader : Uses same credentials as direct Tradovate login - Set Account type to "Simulation" (never Live) - The connection itself is created using the NinjaTrader connection type; there is no Tradovate connection type in NinjaTrader - Case-sensitive for both username and password
Common Login Errors
"Failed Login" When Pasting Credentials into Tradovate
Some browsers convert the first character of your password to lowercase when pasting. This causes login to fail even though the password appears correct.
Solution: Type your password manually, or ensure the first character is uppercase after pasting.
"Fund Your Account" Message
If you see "Fund Your Account" after logging in, this means you logged into your personal Tradovate account instead of your Tradeify account.
Solution: Use the credentials displayed at the top of your Tradeify dashboard. These are different from any personal Tradovate account you may have.
Same Credentials for All Accounts
Your Tradeify username and password never change and work for all your Tradeify accounts.
- The same credentials work for evaluations, sim funded, and live funded accounts
- Select which account to trade from within the platform after logging in
- You do not get new credentials when you pass an evaluation or receive a new account
