Connect an MT5 Account to MyVeridex: Fields and Checks
To connect an MT5 account to MyVeridex, use the current account connection screen and the account's read-only investor password. MyVeridex collects trading data for analytics. The following walkthrough describes the released-product controls reviewed on 3 October 2026; it is not a claim that a new test account was connected during this review.
Prepare the account details
You need an MT5 account that you are authorized to access, its broker and exact server name, numeric account number, and investor password. The investor permission is read-only. The master password permits trading and is not the credential to use here. See the official MT5 authorization guide for the distinction.
Keep these details private. Do not paste them into support screenshots, public profiles or article comments. The broker and server name must match the actual account. A similarly named server or an MT4 server is not interchangeable with the required MT5 server.
Use the current MyVeridex screen
- Sign in to MyVeridex. Open the account-connection flow from your dashboard. A signed-in session is required.
- Select MT5. MT4 is the other current offered option. MyVeridex does not currently offer cTrader, DXTrade, Match-Trader, TradeLocker, Tradovate or NinjaTrader connections.
- Choose the broker and server. Match the server shown for the account in MT5. The screen offers an advanced host-and-port option when a server is not available, but use it only with accurate provider information.
- Enter the account number and investor password. Supply the numeric account number and read-only credential. You can also give the account an optional display name.
- Submit the connection. Read the returned status rather than assuming success from entering the fields. The screen checks bridge availability during the MT4/MT5 flow; service availability and credentials can still affect the result.
- Inspect the account after a successful sync. Check the last-sync time and the records in account details. History loading and sync intervals vary, so no fixed completion time is promised here.
Reconcile before relying on a report
Choose a completed reporting period and compare the account view to its original broker statement. Check trade count, account currency, close dates, profit, commissions and swaps. Separate deposits and withdrawals from trading results. Check timezone boundaries if a daily total differs.
Supported statement import can be useful for reviewing older records. Keep the original file and label imported data accurately. An import has different provenance from a maintained account connection and should not be presented as an independent audit. Supported imports contain closed transactions; reconstructed daily history does not restore a complete historical floating-equity path.
Common problems to check
- Credentials rejected: recheck the account number, exact server and investor credential. Do not replace it with a master trading password.
- Server not found: confirm the broker's actual MT5 server information. Do not guess a host or port.
- Bridge unavailable: the service may be unable to collect data at that time. Check the returned status and retry through the supported product controls when appropriate.
- Missing history: compare the available account records and reporting dates to the original statement before assuming a sync covers every trade.
- Stale report: inspect the last-sync time and connection status before sharing metrics.
For help, provide the error and nonsecret context through the product's support route. Redact passwords and unnecessary account details. This article does not initiate a connection or access anyone's trading account.
Connection is not the same as an audit
A connected account provides a data source. MyVeridex's scheduled verification job evaluates recorded collection method, recent sync, account-record age, trade count, the balance-edit record and active status. Connection and sync updates can also set the recorded badge between evaluations; a visible badge alone does not prove that all six criteria were just checked. It is not an independent audit, identity check or promise that a firm accepts your report.
Read the verification guide before describing a profile as verified. The metrics guide explains why closed-trade analytics are not a continuous prop-firm risk-limit monitor.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to give MyVeridex permission to trade?
No. The MT5 investor-password connection is read-only. Use the appropriate credential and keep it private.
How soon will my data appear?
Check the actual connection status and last successful sync. Timing depends on service availability, account history and the applicable sync interval; this guide promises no fixed delay.
Does an MT5 connection make the account independently audited?
No. Data collection and the product's account checks have a defined scope. They do not establish an independent audit or guarantee complete history.
