§ 01Before you start

You need MT4 or MT5 on the machine you trade from. The app runs inside the terminal. If the terminal is closed, nothing syncs.

Live or demo, hedging or netting, personal or prop firm. All work. Windows is supported natively. macOS works through Wine or Parallels.

§ 02Drop in the app

In your Trader+AI dashboard, click Connect Account and download the EA file (.ex4 for MT4, .ex5 for MT5). It is pinned to your account.

1. Open the Experts folder

   In your terminal: File → Open Data Folder, then MQL4/Experts (MT4) or MQL5/Experts (MT5). Drop the file in.

2. Restart the terminal

   Close and reopen. The app shows up under Navigator → Expert Advisors.

3. Attach to a chart

   Drag Trader+AI onto any chart. Symbol does not matter. Pick one chart you do not use for anything else.

§ 03Allow & connect

MetaTrader blocks outside network calls by default, so before the EA can stream anything you have to allowlist our URL. Then paste the two keys from your dashboard into the EA inputs.

1. Allow our URL in WebRequest

   In the terminal: Tools → Options → Expert Advisors. Tick Allow WebRequest for listed URL and add https://traderplus.ai. Click OK.

2. Copy your Webhook URL and Secret Key

   Open Connect Account in the dashboard. Each broker account gets its own pair, a Webhook URL and a Secret Key. Copy both.

3. Paste into the EA inputs

   When you attached the EA, the inputs dialog opened. If not, right-click the chart → Expert Advisors → Properties. Paste into InpWebhookURL and InpSecretKey, click OK.

4. Confirm it is live

   Open the Experts log tab at the bottom of the terminal. Within a few seconds you will see Connection test passed. Back in the dashboard the account flips to Connected.
