Once your Tradovate trades are imported, Imperial's AI agents analyze every aspect of your trading:
Execution Quality
Analyzes slippage, entry/exit timing, and fill quality. Compares your execution against optimal benchmark prices.
Strategy Drift
Tracks deviation from defined strategies. Alerts when you're taking trades outside your stated rules.
Risk Metrics
Calculates Sharpe ratio, drawdown periods, and risk-adjusted returns. Monitors exposure and position sizing.
Win Rate & Expectancy

Pattern Recognition

Accurate trade reconstruction
Tradovate's performance CSV shows all fills, but not the complete entry-to-exit journey. Imperial Analytics reconstructs your actual trades using FIFO accounting, ensuring accurate net positions and P&L attribution.
This means multi-leg entries and exits are correctly handled. Partial fills are combined into complete trade records. Holding times and P&L per trade are precisely calculated.
- FIFO trade reconstruction (not LIFO or average-cost)
- Multi-leg entry handling
- Partial fill aggregation
- Accurate trade duration
- CME trading day grouping

Frequently asked questions
How often should I export and import my Tradovate data?
You can import as frequently as you like. Many traders import weekly or monthly. Imperial Analytics deduplicates trades, so you won't create duplicate records if you re-upload the same date range.
Does Imperial Analytics integrate with Tradovate's live API?
Not yet, but live API integration is planned for Q4 2026. For now, CSV imports are the primary method. Each import is processed instantly, so the delay is minimal.
Can I import trades from multiple Tradovate accounts?
Yes. Imperial Analytics supports multi-account imports. Trades from each account are tracked independently, but you can view portfolio-level metrics aggregating all accounts.
What if I trade instruments Tradovate lists under a different symbol?
Imperial Analytics has a comprehensive instrument reference database covering all CME futures contracts, including micro contracts. Symbols are standardized automatically during import.
