Claude Desktop Integration

To use this package to enable trading operations via Claude Desktop app, please add this into your Claude Desktop configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "metatrader": {
      "command": "metatrader-mcp-server",
      "args": [
        "--login",    "<YOUR_MT5_LOGIN>",
        "--password", "<YOUR_MT5_PASSWORD>",
        "--server",   "<YOUR_MT5_SERVER>"

    }
  }

Other LLMs using Open WebUI

You can use this MCP server with other LLMs such as OpenAI's GPT by using its HTTP server and Open WebUI.

To start, make sure you have installed the package. Then, run the server:

metatrader-http-server --login <YOUR_MT5_LOGIN> --password <YOUR_MT5_PASSWORD> --server <YOUR_MT5_SERVER> --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000

It will launch HTTP server locally on port 8000 and automatically launch MetaTrader 5 terminal.

On Open WebUI settings page, navigate to Tools menu. Then click plus button on "Manage Tool Servers". Add http://localhost:8000 (or whatever you set your port is).

If all is well, you can now access the tools via chat using available models, such as gpt-4o or o4-mini.
