How to connect Topstep
Topstep connects live. Setup takes a couple of minutes and it stays read-only the whole time.
Open the Topstep connector
In TradeStella, choose Topstep from the connect screen. It links through TopstepX / Tradovate, the same platform your Topstep account already runs on.
Paste a read-only credential
Give TradeStella an investor password or read-only key. That is view access only. TradeStella can never place, modify or close a trade on your Topstep account.
Watch your history backfill
Your past futures fills import in seconds and every new one syncs on its own. You never paste a trade in by hand again.
