MQL5 / MT5

MT5 REST API Python Client

A Python client that talks to MetaTrader 5 over a REST bridge.

A clean REST wrapper for sending orders and reading state from an MT5 terminal from any Python process.

What makes it serious
  • REST wrapper for order placement and position management
  • Reads account and market state over HTTP
  • Decouples strategy code from the MT5 terminal
  • Reusable building block for bridges and dashboards

A Python client that lets any process drive a MetaTrader 5 terminal over a REST bridge — placing orders, managing positions, and reading account and market state without embedding directly in the terminal. It is the connective tissue for automation: a webhook server, a strategy script, or a dashboard can all talk to MT5 through one clean HTTP surface.

Decoupling the caller from the terminal this way makes systems easier to build and test, and keeps order logic in readable Python rather than locked inside MQL5. It is part of the toolkit that powers my TradingView-to-MT5 and copy-trading work. Keeping order logic in readable Python, rather than buried inside MQL5, also makes the whole system easier to test and reason about, and lets several tools share one consistent way of talking to the terminal.

Can place live broker orders; shared as engineering work, not financial advice. Traded at the user's own risk.

Automation is infrastructure, not financial advice. No profit guarantees. Every live system needs staged testing, risk limits, and owner approval.
