Get API Access →Is There an API for Data FX?
Yes. MetaTrader API is an independent REST and WebSocket API that bridges Data FX MT4 and MT5 trading accounts to external applications -- it is not operated by Data FX and is not a MetaTrader terminal replacement or Expert Advisor. You authenticate with your existing Data FX account credentials (or an API key), and MetaTrader API handles the live connection to Data FX's MT4/MT5 trading servers on your behalf. Once connected, you can retrieve live balance, equity, and margin data, execute or modify trades, and subscribe to real-time price and order-update streams over WebSocket -- all through standard HTTP and WebSocket calls in any programming language. No Expert Advisor, MQL code, or running MetaTrader terminal is required at any point, and setup typically takes under 30 minutes.

- Retrieve live balance, equity, margin, and full trading history via REST
- Open, modify, and close market or pending orders programmatically
