MetaTrader 5 (MT5) is one of the two platforms UZO offers, alongside TradeLocker. Your platform is set when you buy your account, so should you have chosen MT5, this is where you begin.

One point worth keeping in mind: your UZO account is simulated. You trade on real, live prices with simulated capital, and your rewards are real. No live capital is at risk while you trade.

The desktop terminal is the fullest version of MT5, with the complete charting, order and Expert Advisor toolset. It runs on both Windows and macOS.

On macOS, choose the macOS download and follow the installation instructions. If your UZO dashboard provides a dedicated macOS installer, use that version. After installation, select the server shown in your dashboard when connecting to your account.

Should you prefer not to install anything, MT5 has a browser-based web terminal. There is nothing to download. Open the web terminal link from your dashboard, enter your server, login number and password, and you are trading in the same browser tab.

The web terminal is useful on a work computer, a borrowed machine, or any device where you would rather not install software. It carries the core charting and order tools, though the desktop app remains the most complete experience.

MT5 has full mobile apps for iPhone, iPad and Android. They let you manage open positions, place orders and watch your equity wherever you are.

Install the official MetaTrader 5 app from the App Store or Google Play, then add your UZO account inside the app by entering the server name exactly as it appears in your dashboard, followed by your login number and password. Searching for the server by name inside the app is the reliable way to connect on mobile.

Whichever device you use, your login is always the same three pieces of information, shown together in your dashboard:

MetaTrader 5 is not available to traders based in the United States. Should you be a US resident, choose TradeLocker instead. It connects to the same UZO accounts and the same live pricing, so you lose nothing by switching platforms.

If you bought an MT5 account and then realised you are based in the US, contact us at [email protected] and we will help you move onto a platform you can use.

Once MT5 is installed, the final step is signing in. Open the platform, enter your server, login number and password from your dashboard, and your charts and balance load straight away.

Should the connection not take on the first try, check that the server name is typed exactly as shown in your dashboard, since a small typo there is the most common reason a login does not connect.

You can download MT5 from the official MetaTrader 5 download page. If your UZO dashboard provides a dedicated installer, use that link.
