Work down this list. Each step is cheap to undo; skipping ahead is not.
Day 1
- Connect a demo broker account.
- Connect one signal source. One. Attribution is impossible with three.
- Enable manual approval.
- Watch the first few signals arrive and check what the parser extracted.
Day 2–3
- Turn manual approval off if the parses look right.
- Check the symbol names your broker uses against what the provider writes. Map anything that does not match.
- Set a daily drawdown limit.
Day 4–7
- Compare the trades PipSync opened against what the provider posted. They should match one for one.
- Look at Source Analytics — is the parse rate high? Any rejections?
Only then
- Connect the live account, at a quarter of your intended risk per trade.
- Raise it once you have seen a losing streak and know how it feels.
Thirty trades is not a sample. Providers regularly look excellent for a month and give it all back in the next.
