MT5 Installation

Install and activate the MyFXCopier EA on MetaTrader 5.

Download and install

  1. Download MyFXCopierAgent (v4.60+) from your Licenses page — prefer the ZIP, or the .mq5 source.
  2. Copy into File → Open Data Folder → MQL5\Experts\.
  3. Open MyFXCopierAgent.mq5 in MetaEditor → Compile (F7) → produces MyFXCopierAgent.ex5.
  4. Restart MT5 or refresh Experts in Navigator.

You cannot run .mq5 without compiling — MetaTrader needs .ex5.

Activate

  1. Attach MyFXCopierAgent to any chart.
  2. Provide your license key and confirm the API host (https://api.myfxcopier.com).
  3. Enable Algo Trading in the terminal toolbar.
  4. Allow WebRequest for https://api.myfxcopier.com under Tools → Options → Expert Advisors.

Verify connection

Check My Terminals for online status, heartbeat, and price feed (required for protective stops).

Notes for MT5

  • Hedging vs netting accounts are supported; copy settings control volume per signal.
  • Some brokers require explicit symbol mapping — see Broker mapping.
  • Use EA 4.60+ so mid/prices heartbeats power breakeven, trailing, and scale-out.
