Axi MCP Is Live: Connect Claude to Your MT5 Account
Axi now ships its own hosted MCP server, no install, no config file. What you can do from the chat, the one-minute setup, and what it doesn't solve.
Shenron Desk reads the research coming out of ING, MUFG and Citadel Securities alongside Stephen Innes' macro letter, finds the story more than one of them is telling, and writes it up in four hours or less. Every claim is pinned to the desk that made it. We report what they think, we don't tell you what to do.
Every morning at 07:00 UTC, we scan financial news across forex, indices, crypto and equities, then publish a short briefing telling you what moved and why.
Roughly 70 headlines pulled from 14 sources each day, CNBC, MarketWatch, Bloomberg, the Financial Times, WSJ, ForexLive, Seeking Alpha, and independent writers like Ray Dalio and Dark Side of the Boom.
A conviction score from 0, 100 for each instrument that actually had news that day, with the bullish and bearish signals counted separately so you can see how thin or strong the case is.
We don't tell you to buy anything, we don't hide the reasoning, and we don't write about instruments that had no news. If a score looks wrong, the headlines it was built from are printed right beneath it.
Every briefing is dated and archived, so you can check how the reasoning held up weeks later. The scoring method is deliberately simple and documented, keyword signals counted against each instrument, not an opaque model score.

We're not going to pretend this is an exhaustive review. This is simply the broker we run our own MT5 testing on, and why. Most brokers will work fine, if you already have one you're happy with, you don't need to move.
Axi's MT5 doesn't block DLL imports or WebRequest calls, which matters if your EA needs external libraries or a data feed. Some brokers restrict this. It's the main technical reason we stayed.
The Pro account runs 0.0 pip EURUSD spreads with a $4.50 round-turn commission per lot. The Standard account instead bakes cost into a 0.68 pip spread with no commission, cheaper if you trade small size.
Regulated across ASIC (Australia), FCA (UK) and CySEC (Cyprus), with negative balance protection for retail clients in those jurisdictions. Client funds are segregated. This varies by entity, check which one applies to you.
The funded-trader programme is free to join and allocates up to $1M in capital with an 80% profit share based on your track record. Worth a look if you have a consistent strategy and no capital to scale it.
