MetaTrader 5 (MT5) is the platform for trading CFDs at NYS Markets. This guide covers downloading MT5, logging in with your dashboard credentials and adding the symbols you want to trade.

1. Download MetaTrader 5

  1. Open your NYS Markets dashboard and click the "Download Platform" button to get MetaTrader 5. You can also download it from metatrader5.com.

  2. Install the application. MT5 is available for Windows, macOS, web, iOS and Android.

2. Log in to your trade account

  1. Open MetaTrader 5.

  2. Go to File → Login to Trade Account.

  3. Enter the Login, Password and Server exactly as shown in your NYS Markets dashboard.

  4. Click Login. When connected, you will see live account balance and quotes.

If a symbol you want to trade is not visible, open View → Symbols, find the instrument and add it to your Market Watch.

Notes

  • CFDs connect with a broker login (Login, Password, Server) — not dxFeed.

  • Always use the exact credentials shown in your NYS dashboard. Never rely on server names or logins from other sources.
