Remote control for MetaTrader 4 and 5

Every advisor you run. One command away.

FXlegal is a remote command layer for MetaTrader. Watch every account, switch autotrading, expand a template, install or remove an advisor on a terminal you are nowhere near: from a browser, a phone or your own code.

The robot does not trade. It opens no positions and places no orders.

Principle

The robot does not trade.

FXlegal carries your commands to the terminal. Nothing else.

What it does

  • Shows the state of every account and the charts open in its terminal
  • Delivers your command to the terminal
  • Switches autotrading and the permission of an advisor to trade
  • Installs and removes advisors, indicators and scripts
  • Saves the terminal state and brings it back
  • Hands control to another user and takes it back

What it never does

  • Opens no positions
  • Places no orders on your behalf
  • Edits no strategy

Monitoring

Every account on one screen

Balance, equity, margin, drawdown and profit of each account, with its broker, account type, pulse and ping. Pick an account and see which charts are open in its terminal and what runs on each of them.
