Connect MetaTrader 5 to Kairox

The MT5 connection uses a zero-trust architecture. Kairox does not ask for your MT5 password. The system generates a bridge key to enter in the Kairox Bridge Expert Advisor installed on your MetaTrader 5 terminal.

Before you start

Prepare the account before creating the connection

Install MetaTrader 5 and sign in to your broker from the MT5 terminal.Prepare the MQL5/Experts folder for the Kairox Bridge Expert Advisor.Download KairoxBridge.ex5 from Kairox, then place it in the MQL5/Experts folder.Keep your MT5 password out of Kairox. It must never be entered in the application.
Step 1

Create access on MT5

This part happens in the broker or platform interface. The goal is to create credentials dedicated to Kairox, with only the permissions needed for trading.

01

Create the connection in Kairox

In Connect Brokers & Exchanges, choose the MetaTrader 5 category. Kairox creates a connection and generates a bridge key dedicated to your account.

02

Install the Expert Advisor

Download KairoxBridge.ex5 from /downloads/KairoxBridge.ex5, place it in the MQL5/Experts folder of your MetaTrader 5 terminal, then restart the terminal or reload Experts.

03

Configure the bridge

In the EA inputs, enter the bridge key generated by Kairox and check that the MT5 terminal is connected to the right broker account.

Step 2

Create the connection in Kairox

Once access is ready, create the connection from the Kairox dashboard. The system will use it to prepare orders according to market, symbol, and risk limits.

01

Name the connection

Use a name that identifies the broker, server, and account, such as MT5-demo-EURUSD or MT5-live-main.

02

Let the bridge pull commands

The MT5 bridge pulls commands prepared by Kairox. This approach avoids storing your broker credentials in Kairox.

03

Test with minimum size

Before going live, use a demo account or minimal volume to verify the symbol, volume, stop loss, and take profit.
