Can You Copy Trade on TD Ameritrade?

This one has a more encouraging answer than most: can you copy trade on TD Ameritrade? In most cases yes, but through Charles Schwab, because that is where TD Ameritrade accounts now live.

What happened to TD Ameritrade

TD Ameritrade accounts have transitioned to Charles Schwab, so most former TD Ameritrade customers now hold and trade through a Schwab account. This matters for copy trading because Charles Schwab is a broker that is set up for copy trading with RelayTrades, offering a trade-enabled connection so the platform can place orders in your account on your behalf, within the limits you set. If your account has already moved to Schwab, the copy trading path is open to you through that Schwab connection.

Which brokers do support copy trading

Charles Schwab is on the supported list, alongside the other brokers set up for copy trading with RelayTrades (through SnapTrade), so copied trades route into your own account:

• Webull, Charles Schwab, Moomoo, E*TRADE, and tastytrade (stocks, ETFs, and options).
• Alpaca, Public, Tradier, and TradeStation (stocks and ETFs).
• Questrade (stocks, ETFs, and options; availability can differ by region).

TD Ameritrade accounts have moved to Charles Schwab, and Schwab is set up for copy trading with RelayTrades. If your account moved to Schwab, connect the Schwab account to copy trade. Check the current supported-broker list when you connect.

What you can do

If you were a TD Ameritrade customer, confirm whether your account has moved to Charles Schwab, then connect that Schwab account to start copy trading. Copied trades route into your own account, your funds stay with your broker, and RelayTrades never takes custody. If for any reason your account is not on Schwab, you can also use one of the other supported brokers above, and it is worth checking the current list when you connect.
