Logging into MetaTrader 5 (MT5)

Our most popular platform is MT5. It offers advanced charting and fast execution. To log in, you need your MT5 account number, password, and server name. You can find these in FxPro Direct under “Trading Accounts”. The server name is important for a successful connection.

Downloading MT5

First, download the MT5 platform from our website. Choose the version for your operating system. Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android versions are available. Install the application and launch it. You will see a login screen.

The desktop installer is about 50 MB. It requires .NET framework on Windows. The download takes less than two minutes. Make sure your internet connection is stable. Older operating systems may not be supported.

Entering Your MT5 Credentials

On the login screen, select “Login to an existing account”. Enter your account number. Then type your password. Choose the server named “FxProMT5” followed by a number (e.g., FxProMT5‑02). Click “Login”. Your balance and open positions will appear.

The server name is case‑sensitive. Double-check it in FxPro Direct. You can save your credentials for faster access. Do not share your password with anyone. We recommend using a strong, unique password.

MT5 supports up to 100 charts simultaneously. You can customise your workspace. After login, you can set up your favourite pairs. The platform loads all instruments automatically. Execution speed is under 40 ms on average.

Logging into cTrader

cTrader offers a modern interface with quick trade execution. We support cTrader for both demo and live accounts. Login steps are slightly different from MT5. The platform uses your cTrader account ID and password. You can access it via desktop, web, or mobile.

Downloading cTrader

Go to our cTrader page and download the desktop app. Alternatively, use the web version directly. Mobile apps are available in your app store. The desktop app requires Windows 7 or macOS 10.13. It needs 4 GB of RAM for smooth performance.

The web version runs on any modern browser. No installation is needed for the web terminal. All features are identical between versions. Your workspace syncs across devices. This is useful for traders who switch locations.

Connecting Your Account

Open cTrader and click “Connect”. Choose “FxPro” from the broker list. Enter your cTrader account ID and password. You can find these under “cTrader Accounts” in your FxPro Direct area. Press “Connect”. The platform will load your instruments and balance.

cTrader supports Level II pricing data. This gives you deeper market insight. You can place trades directly from the chart. The platform includes detachable windows. This allows for a multi‑monitor setup.

Our cTrader servers are located in London. South African traders experience low latency. Execution speeds average 30 ms. You can trade over 70 currency pairs. Commodities and indices are also available.

Mobile App Login

Our mobile app supports both MT5 and cTrader. It also gives you direct access to FxPro Direct. Biometric login (fingerprint or face ID) is available on supported devices. This saves time and adds security. The app is free to download.

To log in on mobile:

  • Download the free FxPro app from the App Store or Google Play
  • Open the app and select the platform you want to use
  • Enter your account number and password
  • Or tap the biometric icon to use face ID or fingerprint (must be set up first)

You can switch between demo and live accounts inside the app. Real‑time quotes and one‑click trading are ready after login. Push notifications keep you updated on price movements. The app supports portrait and landscape modes. All order types are available on mobile.

South African traders can use the app on 3G, 4G, or Wi‑Fi. Data usage is minimal for standard operations. The app size is under 100 MB. It works on iOS 12+ and Android 8+. We update the app every month with improvements.

Troubleshooting Common Login Errors

Occasionally users cannot log in. The most common issues are incorrect credentials or server settings. Our support team can help. Below is a list of solutions for South African traders.

Problem Likely Cause Solution
“Invalid account” Wrong server or account type Check server name in FxPro Direct
Password not accepted Caps lock or extra spaces Reset password via “Forgot Password” link
Two‑factor code fails Time sync error Re‑sync your authenticator app clock
Account locked Too many failed attempts Wait 30 minutes or contact support
“Connection timeout” Internet or firewall issue Restart router or try a different network

If you still cannot log in, contact us via live chat. We are available 24/7. Our team responds within two minutes on average. You can also email us for complex issues. We are here to help you trade without delays.

Security Features for Your Login

We protect your account with multiple layers. Encryption, two‑factor authentication, and IP monitoring are standard. South African clients benefit from these measures. Your data is encrypted using SSL/TLS 256‑bit protocols. This prevents interception of login credentials.

Enabling Two-Factor Authentication

Go to the security section in FxPro Direct. Click “Enable 2FA”. Scan the QR code with Google Authenticator. Enter the six‑digit code to confirm. This adds a second layer of protection.

We recommend 2FA for every account. It blocks unauthorised access even if your password is stolen. You can disable it anytime from the same menu. Use a backup code if you lose your device. Keep your backup codes in a safe place.

Security Feature Description How It Protects You
Two‑factor authentication Code from Google Authenticator Prevents unauthorised access even if password is stolen
SSL/TLS encryption All data between you and our servers is encrypted Blocks interception of login credentials
Device management Review and remove logged‑in devices Keeps old devices from accessing your account
Failed login alert Email notification after 3 wrong attempts Warns you of possible security breach
Session timeout Auto log out after 15 minutes of inactivity Reduces risk if you leave your device unattended

Our system also monitors IP addresses. Unknown locations trigger a verification email. You can review active sessions in FxPro Direct. Revoke access for any session you do not recognise. This keeps your account safe from intruders.

Supported Platforms and System Requirements

To log in without issues, use a compatible device. Our platforms run on Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and any modern web browser. Below is a table with specific requirements. Meeting these ensures smooth performance.

Platform Operating System Minimum RAM Internet Connection Notes
MT5 Desktop Windows 7+, macOS 10.12+ 2 GB 1 Mbps Requires .NET framework
cTrader Desktop Windows 7+, macOS 10.13+ 4 GB 2 Mbps Touch‑screen not required
Web Terminal Any browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari) 1 GB 512 Kbps No installation needed

For the best experience, keep your app updated. Older versions may not support new login protocols. We release updates every four weeks. Automatic updates are available on mobile. Desktop users need to download manually.

South African traders should use a stable internet connection. A wired connection is best for desktop trading. Mobile users can trade on 4G without issues. We recommend at least 2 Mbps for real‑time quotes. Higher speeds reduce latency further.

Final Tips for a Smooth Login Experience

Always use a strong password. Avoid public Wi‑Fi when logging in. Save your server name correctly. Bookmark our login page to avoid phishing sites. If you trade from South Africa, our connection is optimised for local internet speeds.

We value your security and ease of access. If you have any questions, click “Contact Us” inside FxPro Direct. Our team will guide you through the login process. We also offer a detailed FAQ section on our website. Most answers are available within seconds.

Enable two‑factor authentication for extra safety. Use a password manager to store your credentials. Do not share your login details with anyone. Log out after each session on shared devices. These habits protect your funds and data.
