Getting Started with FlashOrder

FlashOrder acts as a bridge between TradingView alerts and your MetaTrader 5 terminal. It uses a local Python server to receive webhooks and the MT5 Python API to execute trades instantly.

Prerequisites

Windows 10/11 or Windows Server (VPS recommended)
MetaTrader 5 Terminal installed and logged in
Python 3.10 or higher installed
TradingView Pro, Pro+, or Premium account (for Webhooks)

Installation

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/hkg945/bridge.git

2. Install Dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Configure Settings

Open config.json and set your MT5 terminal path:

{
  "mt5_path": "C:\\Program Files\\MetaTrader 5\\terminal64.exe",
  "server_port": 8000
}

4. Run the Bridge

python start_bridge.py

This will start the FastAPI server and automatically create an Ngrok tunnel. Copy the Public Webhook URL displayed in the console.
