TurtleSoupX Help
Guides for connecting TurtleSoupX, understanding the workspace, and using its trading controls.
TurtleSoupX is a trading workspace that connects to TopstepX. It brings account and market context, manual order entry, execution models, automation, risk settings, and position controls into one interface.
Use these guides to understand what each part of the workspace does and what to check before using a control. TurtleSoupX can display or send an order request; the resulting order and position state must still be checked in the connected account.

Before using a live control
Check the selected account, current connection and market-data status, order details, and any displayed block or warning. Read the action’s confirmation carefully. After submitting or changing an order, wait for the account’s current order and position state to reflect the result.
TurtleSoupX does not promise that an order will be accepted, filled, protected in every situation, or profitable. You remain responsible for account selection, configuration, and monitoring.
