Set up the MT5 Expert Advisor in a few minutes
On MT5, execution goes through a small Expert Advisor: download it from the install guide, attach it to a chart, paste the AccountCode and routing token from your dashboard, and enable Algo Trading. The dashboard shows the account as Connected as soon as the EA is online — send your first test alert to a demo account before any live order.
- ✓ Download the EA from the MT5 install guide
- ✓ Paste the AccountCode and routing token
- ✓ Enable Algo Trading and keep the terminal open
Netting or hedging: know your account mode
Unlike MT4, an MT5 account is either hedging or netting, and that changes what your alerts do. In hedging mode each buy or sell opens its own position, so several signals on the same symbol coexist as separate tickets. In netting mode the account holds one position per symbol: an opposite signal reduces, closes or reverses it. Before automating concurrent signals on one symbol, check the mode with your broker and validate the open/close sequence on a demo account.
- ✓ Hedging: each signal opens its own ticket
- ✓ Netting: opposite signals offset the same position
- ✓ Validate the close/reverse logic on a demo first
Webhook received but not executed: read the statuses
If an alert never becomes an MT5 order, the status history tells you which link broke. Stuck before ACK: the terminal is closed or Algo Trading is disabled. Rejected with a named reason: an unmapped broker symbol (fix it in symbol mapping), a daily quota already consumed, or a market that was closed. Arrived too late: the command expires on a TTL instead of being replayed at a stale price — by design, never a surprise fill.
- ✓ No ACK: terminal closed or Algo Trading off
- ✓ Rejection always names its reason in the history
- ✓ Late commands expire on TTL, never replayed
