MT5 Manager API over REST — realtime, no native DLL
MT5 Manager API over REST
Talk to your MetaTrader 5 server from any language over plain HTTP — no native Manager DLL, no Windows-only build, no MetaQuotes Manager licence to wrangle yourself. WebAPI puts a clean REST surface and realtime streaming in front of the MT5 Manager API.
The problem with the native MT5 Manager API
The official MT5 Manager API is a Windows-only native library. To use it you build and host a 32/64-bit process, obtain and maintain the MetaQuotes Manager licence, and write your own realtime layer — polling, queueing, idempotency, reconnect and heartbeat handling. That's months of infrastructure before your product does anything useful.
What you get instead
- Clean REST over any language or HTTP client — users, orders, groups, symbols, server settings.
- Realtime over SignalR — stream ticks, account margin, symbol settings and online/offline status. Push, not polling.
- One global address → the nearest server — traffic is routed automatically to the closest mirror, so latency stays low from the Americas to New Zealand.
- OAuth 2.0, multi-tenant, unlimited MT5 servers and workspaces.
Build for free, pay only in production
Develop and debug against a full-featured sandbox with no billing and no SLA — the sandbox has always been free. When you go live, pricing is usage-based: a small monthly base per MT server, then pay-as-you-go that gets cheaper as you grow. You see your exact pricing after you sign in.
