FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a MetaTrader API?
In the context of API2Trade, it's an API layer that makes MT4 and MT5 trading accounts accessible via REST and WebSocket — so your apps can retrieve account data and control trades/orders without a running terminal and without EAs.
Is this an MT4 API or MT5 API?
Both. Plans are available for MT4 or MT5 separately, and the Both Platforms plan includes MT4 + MT5 combined.
Do you offer a MetaTrader REST API?
Yes. We expose REST endpoints for account and trading functions — account summary, balance/equity/margin, open/modify/close orders, and more.
Do you offer a MetaTrader Web API / WebSocket?
Yes. WebSocket streaming is included for live quotes, order updates, and account equity changes in real-time.
Do I need a running MetaTrader terminal or EA?
No. API2Trade specifically eliminates this requirement. All you need is an API key (Single plan) or credentials (Pro plans) — no terminal install, no EA deployment.
Is there a free MetaTrader API / free trial?
Currently we dont offer a Free Trail. For further Information Contact us via Telegram or Email
How do I get an MT4 API Key / MT5 API Key?
On the Single Account Plan, your API key is available in the dashboard under Settings. Requests are authenticated via the x-api-key header plus a per-account UUID.
Is this the official MetaTrader Manager API or Server API?
No. API2Trade is an independent service and is not affiliated with, authorized by, or endorsed by MetaQuotes. There is no Official API from Metaquotes
What payment methods do you accept?
We support Stripe (credit/debit card), Crypto, and Bank Transfer.
