How it works
Connect your MT5 server in minutes. Start read-only.
AXSentinel connects through the MT5 Manager API — no plugin to install on your server. You begin with a read-only manager, see your live book, and switch on actions only when you are ready.
Setup
Five steps from login to live book
- 01
Create a manager login on your MT5 server
We recommend a dedicated manager account for AXSentinel, read-only to begin with. Scope it to the groups you want watched.
$ Manager 1009 · rights: read-only · groups: real\*
- 02
Enter host, port and credentials
In AXSentinel, add the server with its host:port and the manager login. Credentials are encrypted before they are stored. Add more servers the same way.
$ mt5-live.yourbroker.com:443 · ✓ connected
- 03
Allow-list the connector
The hosted connector reaches your server from fixed IP addresses that you allow-list on your side, so nothing else can use that login.
$ allow: connector egress IPs only
- 04
Map your books
Tell AXSentinel which groups are A-book, B-book or hybrid. Exposure, scores and the blotter start filling straight away.
$ real\A\* → A-book · real\B\* → B-book
- 05
Add rules, then turn on actions when you are ready
Start with templates on suggest-only. When you trust a rule, give the manager dealer rights and promote it to needs-approval or auto.
$ rule mode: suggest → needs approval
Deployment

On-prem agent
ComingFor brokers who want the connector inside their own network, an on-prem agent that keeps manager credentials on your side is on the roadmap.
