Security

Security and control for your trading accounts.

MimikTrader is designed to help traders manage connected accounts, copy groups, risk settings, and account activity from one secure control layer. This page explains how connections, credentials, and trading data are handled.

Connection method

OAuth 2.0

Token storage

AES-256-GCM at rest

Hosting

Cloud-based

Local install

Not required

Broker connections

How broker connections work.

Tradovate and NinjaTrader connections use OAuth 2.0. When you connect a broker, you authorize MimikTrader through the broker's own login screen. We never see your broker password.

The broker returns short-lived access tokens and a refresh token. Those tokens are what MimikTrader uses to place copy orders, read fills, and check account state. You can revoke access from your account settings or directly from the broker side at any time.

When you disconnect a broker, the stored tokens are deleted from our database and the connection stops working immediately on our end.

Credential handling

Encryption at rest.

Tokens are sealed with AES-256-GCM before they are written to the database. The encryption key lives only in server-side environment variables — it is never exposed to the browser, included in client bundles, or printed in logs.

Without the key, sealed tokens cannot be unsealed, even by someone with database access. Each token blob carries its own IV and authentication tag, so tampering is detectable.

We do not store broker passwords. We do not store your credit card directly — payments are processed by Stripe and the card details never touch our servers.

Account controls

You configure the limits. The software enforces them.

MimikTrader gives you per-account control over copy behavior, risk rules, and lock state. Rules are checked on every tick of the live trade.

  • Each account can have its own daily loss, drawdown, and profit drawdown limits
  • Each account can be locked individually after a rule breach
  • Two-factor authentication on user logins
  • Session tokens expire and rotate automatically

Audit trail

What happened, when, on which account.

MimikTrader records copied orders, fills, rule events, flatten actions, and account locks with timestamps. The journal is per-account so you can review exactly what happened on a specific account, on a specific day, and what triggered each action.

Connection events — broker connects, disconnects, token refreshes — are recorded separately so you can confirm when your account was authenticated to which broker.

Hosting

Cloud-based, no local install.

MimikTrader runs in the cloud. There is no VPS to rent and no local machine to keep running for the system to operate.

Database storage uses managed PostgreSQL in the same region as the application. Backups run on the database provider's standard schedule. Encryption keys are stored as platform secrets, separately from the database.

Application traffic is served over HTTPS only. HTTP requests are upgraded to HTTPS automatically.

User responsibility

Software helps. You stay in control.

You are responsible for verifying your prop firm's current rules, configuring the right limits per account, reviewing your copy groups before live trades, and making your own trading decisions.

Software enforcement helps reduce avoidable rule breaches. It does not remove trading risk and does not guarantee prop firm compliance, account approval, payouts, or evaluation success.

Keep your MimikTrader login secure. Use a strong password, enable two-factor authentication, and revoke any device or session you no longer recognize.

Certifications

MimikTrader does not currently hold formal compliance certifications such as SOC 2 or ISO 27001. We focus on the controls that matter for a trading control layer: OAuth-based broker connections, encryption at rest, audit trails, and per-account isolation. If you require a formal compliance posture for an institutional rollout, contact us at info@mimiktrader.com.

Ready when you are.

OAuth-based broker connections, encryption at rest, per-account controls, and a 7-day trial.
