Available tools 30

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

account

get_account

One account: login, broker, state, environment, and its last-read balance, equity and free margin. Example: {"account_id": "<id from list_accounts>"}

get_account_figures

Balance, equity, margin, free margin and margin level as decimal strings in the account currency, read every 15 s while online. Set fresh to ask the terminal now (the account must be `ready`). Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "fresh": true}

get_account_overview

One account in one call: state, environment, balance and equity, and its largest open positions with their total P/L. Start here when asked how an account is doing. Example: {"account_id": "<id>"}

get_account_status

Just an account's state, cheap enough to poll every few seconds after bring_accounts_online until `ready`. States invalid_credentials, needs_2fa, needs_certificate and trading_disabled need the user, so stop polling. Example: {"account_id": "<id>"}

list_account_instruments

Each instrument's symbol on this account's broker: mapped, ambiguous (with candidates) or missing. Trade the mapped symbol. Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "query": "XAU"}

place

place_market_order

Opens a position at market on the user's real broker account (or demo) and waits for the broker; confirm account, symbol, side and volume with the user first. On ORDER_UNRESOLVED never resend, poll get_order. Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "symbol": "EURUSD", "side": "buy", "volume": "0.10", "idempotency_key": "<new uuid>"}

place_multi_account_order

Places the same market order on many of the user's real broker accounts (or demo) at once and returns at once; follow it with get_multi_account_order. Confirm the accounts, symbol, side and volume with the user first. Example: {"account_ids": ["<id>", "<id>"], "instrument": "XAUUSD", "side": "buy", "volume": "0.01", "idempotency_key": "<new uuid>"}

place_pending_order

Places a limit or stop order on the user's real broker account (or demo) that waits at the broker; success means working, not filled. Confirm it with the user first. Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "symbol": "EURUSD", "side": "buy", "kind": "limit", "volume": "0.10", "price": "1.08000", "idempotency_key": "<new uuid>"}

cancel

cancel_multi_account_order

Calls off a multi-account order on the user's real broker accounts (or demo) before anything is sent. Once orders went out, close the positions instead. Example: {"multi_account_order_id": "<id>", "idempotency_key": "<new uuid>"}

cancel_order

Cancels a pending order on the user's real broker account (or demo) that has not triggered. If it triggered there is a position to close instead. Example: {"order_id": "<id>", "idempotency_key": "<new uuid>"}

multi

get_multi_account_order

One multi-account order and each account's result; poll it after placing one. An account left `unresolved` must not be resent, so poll its order instead. Example: {"multi_account_order_id": "<id>"}

list_multi_account_orders

Recent multi-account orders (one trade on many accounts), each with its per-account result. Pages with limit and cursor. Example: {}

accounts

list_accounts

The workspace's MT5 accounts with id, login, server, state and environment (demo or live); use the id, not the login, everywhere else. Only `ready` accounts trade, so bring the others online first. Example: {"limit": 25}

bring

bring_accounts_online

Starts each account's MT5 terminal in the cloud and logs it in; poll get_account_status until `ready`. Places no trades and is safe to repeat. Example: {"account_ids": ["<id>"]}

broker

search_broker_servers

MT5 broker servers matching a broker or server name, servers seen working on fxapis first. A server not listed can still be used. Example: {"query": "icmarkets"}

calculate

calculate

The margin an order would need, or its profit between two prices, as the broker computes it; opens nothing. The account must be online. Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "kind": "margin", "symbol": "EURUSD", "side": "buy", "volume": "0.10", "price": "1.08450"}

close_position

Closes a position on the user's real broker account (or demo), whole or by volume. Sent twice it opens the opposite position, so reuse an idempotency_key only to retry the same close. Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "position_id": "<brokerPositionId>", "idempotency_key": "<new uuid>"}

deals

list_deals

An account's deal history as the broker recorded it, newest first, including stops that fired, swaps and manual trades. Realised profit is here. Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "since": "2026-10-01T00:00:00Z"}

instruments

list_instruments

Markets named once (XAUUSD, US30, BTCUSD) whatever each broker calls them. list_account_instruments gives one account's own symbol for each. Example: {"category": "metals"}

market

get_market_hours

Whether a market is open now on this account's broker, and when it next opens or closes, in UTC. A broker holiday missing from its schedule still refuses orders. Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "instrument": "XAUUSD"}

modify

modify_position

Moves a position's stop loss or take profit on the user's real broker account (or demo); null removes a level. Remove a stop loss only when the user asks. Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "position_id": "<brokerPositionId>", "stop_loss": "1.08000", "idempotency_key": "<new uuid>"}

order

get_order

The authoritative record of one order: what was asked, the broker's answer, fill volume and price. Poll it after ORDER_UNRESOLVED until it leaves `unknown`. Example: {"order_id": "<id>", "include_deals": true}

orders

list_orders

Orders placed through fxapis, newest first, for one account or all; state `unknown` means still being confirmed, so never resend those. Pages with cursor. Example: {"state": "unknown"}

positions

list_positions

Open positions on one account as last observed; brokerPositionId is what close_position and modify_position take. Pages with limit and cursor. Example: {"account_id": "<id>"}

price

get_price_history

Recent price bars (candles: open, high, low, close, tick volume, spread) for one symbol from this account's broker, oldest first with bar-open times in UTC, for technical analysis such as trend, support and resistance, volatility or moving averages; timeframes M1 to MN1, up to 500 bars, the last bar still forming, and tick volume counts price changes rather than traded lots. The account must be online, and until its terminal is updated at the next scheduled maintenance this answers CAPABILITY_UNAVAILABLE, so use get_quotes for the current price meanwhile. Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "instrument": "XAUUSD", "timeframe": "H1", "count": 100}

quotes

get_quotes

Live bid and ask for up to 20 symbols or instruments from this account's broker; a closed market answers its last price with marketOpen false. The account must be online. Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "instruments": ["EURUSD"]}

symbol

get_symbol_snapshot

One symbol on one account in one call: its specification, live quote, whether the market is open, and the margin for a volume. Use it before proposing a trade. Example: {"account_id": "<id>", "instrument": "XAUUSD", "volume": "0.10", "side": "buy"}

take

take_account_offline

Stops an account's terminal; open positions and their stops stay at the broker. Refused while an order is in flight. Example: {"account_id": "<id>"}

usage

get_usage

This month's usage against the plan, and its cost so far in minor units (9900 is $99.00). Over quota opening is refused, closing never is. Example: {}

workspace

get_workspace

This connection's workspace: its plan, the plan's limits and features, and whether trading is switched off. Call it first when unsure what the user can do. Example: {}

The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

What is fxapis — MetaTrader 5 mostly used for?

Its tools cluster around account, place and cancel. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.

Is fxapis — MetaTrader 5 working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 264 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect fxapis — MetaTrader 5?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does fxapis — MetaTrader 5 need an API key?

No. fxapis — MetaTrader 5 completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 30 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is fxapis — MetaTrader 5?

It answers our handshake in 264 ms on average, which is faster than 64% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
