Questions
›Does MAV sync my Topstep account automatically?
Not today. Topstep trades on TopstepX, and those trades come into MAV as a CSV export.
›How do I import Topstep trades from a CSV?
From TopstepX: 1. Open TopstepX and go to the Trades tab. 2. Set the date range, then Export (CSV). 3. Drop the file into the importer in MAV.
›Does MAV know Topstep’s rules?
MAV’s public rulebook describes 30 Topstep plans across 12 programs, each with its source and the date it was checked (most recently October 6, 2026). Add your account to The Stack and pick your plan: the rules prefill, and you can edit any rule that differs from your own terms. Firms change rules often, so your agreement with the firm is always the authority.
›Can MAV place trades or change anything on my Topstep account?
No. A Tradovate connection is a one-way read of your fills and a CSV is a file you upload, so MAV never places, cancels or modifies an order, holds no funds, and cannot lock you out of your platform or your firm’s account.
›Is MAV affiliated with Topstep?
No. MAV by Market Mavericks is an independent journaling and analytics tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or partnered with Topstep; the firm’s name is used only to identify whose accounts this guide is about.
