Quantower Connection Instructions

Quantower connects through TopstepX credentials. No API access needed.

Connect using the New Topstep Dashboard by selecting TopstepX as your platform. This links your account to ProjectX data — a direct CME feed for faster, cleaner market data with 10:1 Micro to Mini contract conversions.

Quantower via TopstepX is available for the Trading Combine® (TC) and Express Funded Account® (XFA) only.
