How it works
Hand over the keys, not the account
The account stays yours. The person holding the key can trade it, and nothing more.
Give a trade key
Give a key to the person who will trade for you, using their M5FX login. The key opens the account you choose, not your MT5 password.
Set hard limits
Set daily and weekly loss limits and a maximum risk per trade. Only you can change them.
Stay in control
Follow every trade from your own dashboard, and revoke the key in one click whenever you want.
Owner controls
Total control stays in the owner's hands
No credentials shared
Your MT5 login and password stay with you. The trader works through M5FX and never sees them.
Hard limits you own
Daily loss, weekly loss and per-trade risk limits apply to everyone who trades the account, and only the owner can change them.
Revoke any time
Revoke a key in one click. The trader can no longer reach the account, and you do not need to change your MT5 password.
See every trade
Trades placed on your account appear in your own dashboard, history and alerts, as they happen.
Autoclose still protects you
Your autoclose rules keep running on the server, whoever is trading the account.
Funds stay with your broker
M5FX is not a broker and does not hold or move your money. Your account stays with your broker.
Who it is for
For anyone who lets someone else trade
Owners who use a trader
Hand the keys to someone you trust, while the limits and the off switch stay with you.
Mentors and students
Let a mentor trade or demonstrate on a student's account inside limits the student sets.
Small teams
Give team members keys to the accounts they trade, and revoke them when they move on.
M5FX does not trade on your account or make trading decisions for you. We provide the platform: every trade is placed by you or by someone you give access to, or closed by rules and limits you set. M5FX does not choose, vet or recommend traders. Who you give access to, and any agreement between you and that person, is your responsibility. Trading on someone else's behalf may need a licence where you live.
