Bug fixes: - Fix computeDailyTarget when consistency is 0% or 100%: treat as no constraint, letting min-day reservation or full remaining profit drive the target - Rename 'Random' to 'Auto' across entire codebase (types, API, UI, scheduler) Features: - Add "Stop after all eligible" checkbox: auto-stops scheduler when all configured accounts are dead, inactive, already traded, or challenge complete - Show position direction in status pill: "Long" (green) / "Short" (red) instead of generic "In Trade" (blue) - Add "Copy to Max" button: copies current trade direction to remaining eligible accounts up to max_concurrent_accounts limit Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
AutoFirmer
Automated futures trading dashboard for prop firm accounts via Tradovate.
VPS Setup (Windows Server 2019 / 2022)
All commands are run in PowerShell (run as Administrator).
1. Install Git
Download and install from https://git-scm.com/download/win, or via winget:
winget install --id Git.Git -e --source winget
Restart PowerShell after installing so git is on the PATH.
2. Install Node.js 22+
winget install --id OpenJS.NodeJS.LTS -e --source winget
Restart PowerShell, then verify:
node --version # should be v22.x or higher
npm --version
3. Install Windows Build Tools (required for better-sqlite3)
better-sqlite3 compiles a native C++ module and needs the Visual Studio build tools:
npm install -g windows-build-tools
If that fails on newer Node, install manually:
- Download Build Tools for Visual Studio from https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/#build-tools-for-visual-studio-2022
- During install, select "Desktop development with C++"
4. Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/Senofy/autofirmer.git
cd autofirmer
5. Install dependencies
npm install
6. Build
npm run build
7. Run
Development (with hot reload):
npm run dev
Production:
npm start
The app runs on port 3000. Access it at http://<your-vps-ip>:3000.
First-time setup
On first run, the SQLite database (autotrader.sqlite) is created automatically in the project root. No migrations need to be run manually.
Open the app in your browser and add your firms through the UI:
- Click + Add Firm on the main page
- Enter the firm name, Tradovate username, and password
- Go to the firm's Settings page to configure account types (prefix, profit target, consistency %, etc.)
- Return to the main page — accounts will populate once the firm connects to Tradovate
Keeping it running (PM2)
Install PM2 globally:
npm install -g pm2
npm install -g pm2-windows-startup
Start the app and save the process list:
cd C:\path\to\autofirmer
pm2 start "npm start" --name autofirmer
pm2 save
pm2-startup install
To restart after pulling updates:
cd C:\path\to\autofirmer
git pull
npm install
npm run build
pm2 restart autofirmer
Firewall
To restrict port 3000 to a specific trusted IP only:
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "AutoFirmer" -Direction Inbound -Protocol TCP -LocalPort 3000 -RemoteAddress <your-ip> -Action Allow
Or open it to all inbound (less secure):
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "AutoFirmer" -Direction Inbound -Protocol TCP -LocalPort 3000 -Action Allow
Updating
cd C:\path\to\autofirmer
git pull
npm install # only needed if dependencies changed
npm run build
pm2 restart autofirmer
