Trade X HFT ZONE

A compiled MetaTrader 5 expert advisor, licensed to you. It runs on your own terminal and your own broker account — we never hold your money and never touch your login. You get the build, a licence key, the published presets and every update while the licence is active. It is sold as the Ultra HFT Scalper plan, which is the name you will see on the invoice.

Checking whether HFT ZONE is on your account

What it is

One file, your terminal, your rules.

HFT ZONE is sold as a finished system rather than a subscription to ours. You install it once, paste your key, load a preset and it trades the account it is attached to — on the broker you already use, under the risk ceilings you set.

DELIVERY

A compiled build

You receive the .ex5 only. The source is not distributed — not to customers, not to resellers, not on request.

LICENCE

Bound to your terminals

One key, a fixed number of MT5 accounts. Bind a terminal by attaching the EA; release a seat from this page when you move brokers or rebuild a VPS.

CONTROL

Risk stays in your hands

Lot sizing, permitted trade direction and a drawdown ceiling are named inputs you set. Nothing about the system overrides them.

What you get

Everything the licence includes.

The compiled expert advisor
A single .ex5 for MetaTrader 5, downloaded from this page while your licence is active. Rebuilt for new MT5 builds as they ship.
A licence key
Yours, tied to your account rather than to a file. It is shown on this page once you are signed in, with a copy button, and it is the only thing you paste into the EA.
Seat management
See which MT5 accounts are bound, which broker each is on and when each last checked in — and release one yourself, without opening a ticket.
Published presets
.set files carrying a complete, tested configuration. Load one instead of setting 372 inputs by hand.
Updates while active
New builds and new presets appear in your downloads list. Nothing auto-installs; you decide when to replace the file on your VPS.
A human at the desk
Setup help over Telegram or email. If a preset needs a change, the desk tells you which input to change and what to set it to.
Who it is for

Be honest about whether this is you.

This is a tool for someone already running MetaTrader 5, not a first trading account. If any line on the right applies, buy something else — or nothing.

A GOOD FIT

You already run MT5 unattended

You have a broker account you are happy with, a VPS or a machine that stays on, and you understand what leverage does to an account. You are comfortable reading a drawdown figure and switching an EA off when it is outside the conditions you accepted.

A BAD FIT

You want it to be hands-off income

You are funding this with money you need, you expect to leave it alone indefinitely, or you want to know the return before you start. No expert advisor can answer that last question, and anyone who answers it for you is selling something else.

The inputs

Most inputs are numbered, on purpose.

The EA exposes 372 inputs. 22 of them are named — the risk controls, so you can always see and set what governs your exposure. The remaining 350 are labelled P001 through P350.

Why they are numbered
Named inputs describe the system. Publishing them hands a working copy to anyone who opens the inputs tab, and this is a compiled product precisely so that does not happen. Numbers keep the configuration usable without publishing it.
What stays named
The controls over your money: lot sizing, permitted trade direction and the drawdown ceiling. Those are never masked, because you cannot consent to a risk you cannot see.
How instructions are written
By number. If the desk asks you to change something it reads like “set 075 to 30”. You do not need to know what it governs to apply it, and support will not describe it.
Presets do this for you
A published .set already carries every numbered value. Loading one is the intended path; hand-tuning numbered inputs without the desk is not.
Setup

Five steps, about ten minutes.

The same five steps whether you install on a desktop terminal or a VPS. Step 3 is the one people miss, and skipping it produces an EA that attaches, shows a smiley face and never trades.

  1. Install the file. In MT5, open File ▸ Open Data Folder, copy the .ex5 into MQL5/Experts, then restart the terminal. The EA appears in the Navigator under Expert Advisors.
  2. Attach it to one chart. One chart, one instance. Enable Algo Trading in the toolbar.
  3. Allow WebRequest. In Tools ▸ Options ▸ Expert Advisors, tick “Allow WebRequest for listed URL” and add https://trade-x.co. Without this the EA cannot verify your licence and will sit idle without an obvious error.
  4. Paste your key. In the EA's inputs, put your licence key into LicenseKey. On the next check-in the terminal claims a seat and appears in your licence panel above.
  5. Load a preset. Save the .set file into MQL5/Presets, then use Load in the EA's input dialog and pick it. Confirm the named risk inputs read what you intend before you let it run.

Moving to a different broker or rebuilding a VPS? Release the old seat from the panel above first — a seat that is still bound to a terminal that no longer exists is a seat you cannot use.

Read this first

The honest part.

Trading carries substantial risk and most retail traders lose money. An expert advisor does not change that. HFT ZONE places live orders on your account automatically, and the losses it takes are real money leaving a real balance.

We publish no win-rate, no return figure and no backtest as a forecast. Past behaviour of any automated system, ours included, tells you what happened on the data it was measured on and nothing about what your account will do. Anyone quoting you a monthly figure for this product is not the desk.

You control the risk inputs, so you own the outcome. Lot size, direction and the drawdown ceiling are yours to set. Set them loosely and the system can lose more, faster. Test on a demo account first, start at a size you would be relaxed about losing entirely, and keep the terminal somewhere you can reach it.

Trade X supplies software and research only. We are not a broker, an adviser or a fund, we never take custody of your funds, and nothing on this page is personal advice. Read the full Risk Disclosure before you buy.

Straight answers

Before you ask.

What does it cost?
It is sold as the Ultra HFT Scalper plan, and the price is published in one place — the pricing page. We do not restate it here on purpose: a second copy of a price is a copy free to go stale, and you should never see two numbers for one product. The desk confirms the figure with you before anything is charged.
Do I get the source?
No. Only the compiled .ex5 and the published .set presets are ever supplied. This is not negotiable at any price.
How many terminals can I run?
As many as your licence has seats. The panel above shows the count, which accounts are bound and when each last checked in, and lets you release one yourself.
Does it need MT4?
It is MetaTrader 5 only. There is no MT4 build and there is not going to be one.
Which broker should I use?
One that permits automated trading on your account type and gives you genuine MT5. Our notes on choosing one are on Brokers.
What happens when my licence lapses?
The EA stops verifying and stops trading, and downloads close. Your bound seats and your key stay on the account, so renewing puts you back where you were.
