Get API Access →Is There an API for Pips Platform?
Yes. MetaTrader API is an independent REST and WebSocket API that bridges Pips Platform MT4 and MT5 trading accounts to external applications -- it is not operated by Pips Platform and is not a MetaTrader terminal replacement or Expert Advisor. You authenticate with your existing Pips Platform account credentials (or an API key), and MetaTrader API handles the live connection to Pips Platform'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.
