Match-Trader to MT5 Trade Copier
Copy a Match-Trader account onto MT5, with the destination free to manage stops and size trades on its own balance.
ConnectX Copy reproduces Match-Trader trades on MT5. Use this direction when the Match-Trader account is where the decisions are made and MT5 is where you want the resulting position to exist.
MT5 gives the copy the widest set of options on the destination side — stops carried at entry, stops moved later, pending orders and the full range of sizing modes.
Several MT5 accounts can follow one Match-Trader master, each at a different broker and a different size.
How Match-Trader → MT5 copying works
Match-Trader is connected
Add the account with its email, password and broker details; positions are reconciled on a short cycle.
MT5 destinations are attached
Add each MT5 account by login, password and server.
The order is translated
The instrument is mapped to the MT5 broker’s symbol and the lot calculated per account.
MT5 executes and keeps up
The position opens with its stop and target and follows later changes.

Risk and lot-sizing controls
All five sizing modes: fixed lot, lot multiplier, balance or equity scaling, or scaling against a fixed master balance.
Fixed master balance is the mode that suits a firm master, since payouts and resets there stop moving the copy.
Minimum and maximum lot enforcement for each MT5 broker.
Direction and lot-range filters on the Match-Trader master.
Equity protection per destination with alert, pause or close actions.
Symbol mapping
Match-Trader instrument names and MT5 broker symbols differ, and MT5 brokers add suffixes of their own.
Explicit mappings cover the cases automatic matching cannot resolve.
Contract size differences are applied during sizing so the destination carries the intended exposure.
Platform-specific behaviour
The Match-Trader source is reconciled over REST on a short cycle rather than a push stream, so copies land within seconds.
Everything the MT5 destination can do is available — this pairing loses nothing on the receiving side.

Match-Trader → MT5 questions
Which sizing mode suits a firm master?
Scaling against a fixed master balance, because payouts and resets on the firm account then stop changing the size of the copy.
Do stops move on the MT5 copy?
Yes. MT5 supports order modification, so the copy follows the master’s stop changes.
How fast is the copy?
The Match-Trader side is read on a short REST cycle, so expect seconds.
Can pending orders be copied?
Yes on the MT5 destination, when pending-order copying is enabled.
Can I run several MT5 destinations?
Yes — add as many MT5 destinations as you need, configured independently.
