REST · WebSocket · TCP for MetaTrader 5
Turn your MT5 terminal into a local trading API.
MetaPortAPI is a lightweight Expert Advisor that lets any script or app read prices, send orders and stream market data from MetaTrader 5 — in the language you already use, on the machine you already trust.

Everything MT5 can do
One API for prices, orders, indicators and history.
Live streaming
Ticks, OHLC bars, depth of market and trade events pushed over WebSocket the moment they happen.
ws://127.0.0.1:81Real-time quotes
Bid, ask and tick time for any symbol your broker offers.
Indicators
Moving averages, ATR, or any custom indicator you have installed — values straight from the terminal.
History & reports
Closed positions, deals and orders by date, plus candle and tick history for research and backtests.
Account, symbols & calendar
Balance, equity and margin; full symbol specifications and trading sessions; economic calendar events by currency or country.
Built-in safety lock
Demo-only trading mode and localhost-only access are on by default, and you can set a maximum lot per order. You decide when to switch them off.
How it works
Attach one EA. Talk to it over standard protocols.
MetaPortAPI runs inside your terminal and opens local ports. Your code sends a request, the EA carries it out in MT5 and answers in JSON.
01 · YOUR CODE
Script, bot or app
Any language, on Windows, Linux or mobile.
02 · METAPORTAPI EA
Inside MetaTrader 5
:81 REST + WebSocket:77 JSON commands:78 data stream
03 · YOUR BROKER
Through MT5 itself
Orders use the terminal's own connection — nothing reverse-engineered.
Private by design
Your strategy and account data never pass through a third-party cloud.
No cloud hop
Requests stay on your machine or VPS, so latency is the terminal's own.
Standard tooling
OpenAPI 3 spec, plain JSON, curl-friendly. No MQL5 needed on your side.
Many accounts
Run one terminal per account on different ports for hedging, arbitrage or copy trading.
