To use Tradesea with Lucid, you need the account's Rithmic credentials. Open Tradesea in a browser, sign in to the platform, then connect the trading account separately. Its copier can send your leader account's trades to linked follower accounts.
This guide follows Lucid's and Tradesea's documentation. My hands-on Lucid experience is on Tradovate, NinjaTrader and TradingView; I haven't documented a Tradesea test here.
Check the account before connecting
Lucid lists Tradesea among its supported Rithmic platforms and says the listed platforms work across its account types. Check the credentials issued to your account. A Tradovate/CQG login does not complete the Rithmic connection described below.
If your account has no Rithmic credentials, ask Lucid support what is available for that account. The sources checked for this guide do not establish a process for converting an existing CQG account. Confirm that before purchasing another account specifically for Tradesea.
Connect Lucid to Tradesea
- Open app.tradesea.ai. Use Google sign-in or enter your email and the one-time password sent to your inbox. This is the Tradesea login.
- In the Lucid Trader Dashboard, open the Account Summary and select Show Credentials. Lucid's setup guide places this control at the top right.
- In Tradesea, open Account Centre → Connect New, choose Lucid Trading and enter the Rithmic username and password from the dashboard. The connection guide also asks for your full name and the account environment: simulation for simulated accounts, live for live brokerage accounts. A simulated funded account still uses simulation.
- Complete the Rithmic agreements presented during connection. Lucid's instructions describe the non-professional route; your declarations must match your status.
- Check that the connection succeeded and select the intended account in Station. Verify the account identifier before entering an order, especially when several accounts are linked.
Set up SecureCopy
SecureCopy runs on Tradesea's servers. Copying continues when the follower tab is closed or inactive.
- Open Copy trading and choose the leader account.
- Select followers, set each size multiplier from 1× to 3×, then save.
- Recheck follower controls: adding followers clears their personal daily loss limit (PDLL) and profit target (PDPT), along with Position Risk Bracket settings.
When enabled, Copy Protection retries missed flatten, exit and cancel actions. Pausing a group stops copying; check open positions separately before leaving the platform.
Use this workflow for your own connected accounts and trading decisions. Lucid's terms prohibit trading on behalf of other people and coordinated activity intended to pool or hedge risk across unrelated accounts.
The multiplier needs to fit each follower's contract limit and remaining drawdown. Lucid's account limits still apply. Lucid permits trade copiers, while keeping the trader responsible for software errors and rule compliance. Inspect each account's positions after a rejected or missed order; the platform's protection feature does not guarantee identical execution.
Check copier access and any fee
The public setup and copier guides checked on October 12, 2026 do not confirm whether copier access is included in your Lucid account or carries a separate charge. Check access and any charge in your connected account, or ask Tradesea support before buying a Lucid account for this feature.
Feature access can differ by subscription. Tradesea's Compass notes, for example, say some advanced analytics require a particular tier and direct users to in-account pricing. Check copier access and analytics access separately.
Browser and mobile access
On desktop or laptop, use a supported browser. Tradesea lists Chrome and Edge 111+, Firefox 128+, and Safari 16+ on macOS. Keep the browser current; the web platform includes TradingView charts and order management.
Tradesea also links iOS and Android apps. Its device guide directs iPad users to Safari if the app is unavailable. The product overview still labels the desktop app as coming soon, so this setup does not depend on a Windows, Mac or Linux installer.
If the account does not connect or appear
For a rejected login, check that you entered the Rithmic credentials, including the current password and correct capitalization. Your Lucid website password and Tradesea email login serve different purposes.
If Tradesea shows a successful connection but Station has no account, its troubleshooting guide says to check the connection status in Account Centre, refresh Station and select the correct account. If Lucid is missing from the connection list, access may not be enabled for that account.
Lucid handles the account and issued credentials. For the Tradesea interface, use the vendor help center or the support routes on Lucid's Tradesea resources page. If your existing setup is on CQG, the Tradovate and NinjaTrader guide covers that connection instead.
