1. Introduction

This guide explains how to set up and use the Golden Remote Trade Copier MT5 to synchronize trades across accounts globally. This enterprise‑grade system utilizes a secure cloud server to copy trades between different PCs, VPS providers, and brokers with millisecond execution — requiring no local network connection or shared folders.

Whether you are a signal provider broadcasting your trades or a follower receiving signals with custom risk settings, this manual covers everything you need.


2. System components

The Golden Remote ecosystem consists of three products. This manual focuses on the first two:


  Product Type Purpose & link
  Golden Remote Trade Copier Master      Paid The distribution engine on the signal provider account. Broadcasts trades to the cloud. View product →
  Golden Remote Trade Copier Client Free The receiver on follower accounts. Pulls trades from the cloud with advanced risk controls. View product →
  Golden Local Trade Copier Free         For local network copying (same PC/VPS) without cloud dependency. View product →


3. How it works

The system uses a publisher‑subscriber model over a secure cloud database:

  1. Master (Broadcaster): Installed on the signal provider's MT5. It monitors all trading activity (opens, closes, modifications, SL/TP). Upon any trade event, it instantly encrypts and uploads the signal to the cloud server at https://golden-remote-trade-copier-production.up.railway.app/.
  2. Cloud Server: The secure relay station. It stores signals and distributes them only to clients using the correct matching identifiers (Master_ID and Custom_Broker_Name).
  3. Client (Receiver): Installed on followers' MT5 terminals. It constantly polls the cloud for new signals. When a signal arrives, it executes the trade locally, applying the follower's pre‑configured risk settings (lot sizing, symbol mapping, loss limits).
 Key principles:
  • Unidirectional: Master only sends; Client only receives.
  • Isolated: Each Master's feed is isolated on the server to prevent data collisions.
  • Global: Works across any broker, any VPS, any continent.
  • Manual freedom: Server‑side tracking ensures if a client manually closes a trade, the system never re‑opens it.

4. Prerequisites

  • MT5 platform installed and running (any build).
  • Account credentials: your MT5 Login ID (for Master) or the provider's Login ID (for Client).
  • Stable internet connection for cloud communication.
  • Downloaded EAs from the MQL5 links above.

5. Step‑by‑step setup

5.1 Installation & WebRequest (CRITICAL – same for Master & Client)

  1. Open MT5 → File > Open Data Folder → navigate to MQL5 > Experts → copy the downloaded .ex5 files into this folder.
  2. Restart MT5 or right‑click in the Navigator and select Refresh.
  3. Go to Tools > Options > Expert Advisors.
  4. Check “Allow WebRequest for listed URL”.
  5. Click Add and paste exactly:
    https://golden-remote-trade-copier-production.up.railway.app/
  6. Click OK. Without this step the EA cannot communicate with the cloud.

5.2 Master EA configuration (signal provider)

  1. Open a chart on the Master account (any symbol, e.g. EURUSD).
  2. Drag “Golden Remote Trade Copier Master” onto the chart.
  3. In the Inputs tab, set:
  4. Click OK and ensure AutoTrading is enabled on the toolbar.

5.3 Client EA configuration (follower)

  1. Open a chart on the Client account (any symbol).
  2. Drag “Golden Remote Trade Copier Client” onto the chart.
  3. In the Inputs tab, configure:
    • Master_ID = the Master’s MT5 Login ID (same as above).
    • Allowed_Master_Broker = the exact Custom_Broker_Name from the Master.
    • Set your lot sizing and risk preferences (see section 7).
    • If needed, set symbol mapping (prefix/suffix).
  4. Click OK and enable AutoTrading.

5.4 Test the connection

  1. On the Master, open a tiny test trade (e.g. Buy 0.01 EURUSD).
  2. Within seconds the Client should copy it. Check the Experts tab for log messages.
  3. If it doesn’t copy, revisit WebRequest, IDs, and AutoTrading.

5.5 Going live

  • Start small to verify broker execution and symbol mapping.
  • Monitor both terminals for the first hours.
  • Use a VPS for 24/7 reliability (recommended).

Master_ID ✔ YES                 The unique identifier for your signal feed. Must be the exact MT5 Login ID of your account. 12345678
Custom_Broker_Name ✔ YES   A custom name you assign to your feed. Acts as secondary filter. Clients must match this exactly.       ICMarkets_Signal

Lot size settings (choose ONE method)

Parameter Function Description When to use
Use same Master lot size
(Default: true)		 Mirroring     1:1 copying. Master 0.10 → you 0.10. You trust the provider and have similar account size.
Use fixed lot size Fixed    Always opens a specific lot amount, e.g. 0.01 . Minimal predictable risk.
Use lot multiplier Multiplier    Scales Master’s lot by factor (e.g. 2.0 doubles). Amplify or reduce signal risk.
Use risk percentage of balance Risk‑based    Calculates lot based on YOUR balance & Master’s SL to risk a set % per     trade. Professional risk management (e.g. 1% per trade).



Trade protection & mapping

Parameter Description Example / values
Copy Stop‑Loss / Take‑Profit Mirror Master’s exact SL/TP ( true ) or manage your own ( false ). true / false
Copy Pending Orders Include limit/stop orders in sync. true / false
Max Entry Delay Minutes Stale protection: ignore trades opened more than X minutes ago on Master. 5 (minutes)
Add prefix to symbol Text before standard symbol (e.g. pro. → pro.EURUSD ). pro. or blank
Add suffixes to symbol Comma‑separated extensions (e.g. .m,.ecn ). .m or .m,.ecn



Equity protection (risk guard)

  Parameter Description Example
  Enable equity protection Activates daily monitoring. true / false
  Maximum daily loss percent Daily equity drawdown limit in %. 5.0 (5%)
  Maximum daily loss value Hard currency cap (e.g. $500). 500
  Close on breach If true , all positions flattened when limit hit. true / false

Free feature All risk settings above are included in the free client.

8. Risk management deep dive

  • Flexible lot sizing: Mirror, fixed, multiplier, or the advanced risk percentage mode (auto‑adjusts to your account).
  • Equity guard: Set a daily loss circuit breaker (% or fixed). When breached, the EA can flatten all positions.
  • Manual freedom: Server tracks manual closes – they will never be re‑opened.
  • Stale trade protection: Prevents copying old trades using Max Entry Delay Minutes .


9. Troubleshooting

Problem Likely cause Solution
Trades not copying WebRequest not enabled / wrong URL Re‑check Tools > Options > Expert Advisors. URL must be exactly https://golden-remote-trade-copier-production.up.railway.app/
Trades not copying Master_ID mismatch Verify Client Master_ID equals Master account’s Login ID.
Trades not copying Custom_Broker_Name mismatch Client Allowed_Master_Broker must exactly match Master’s Custom_Broker_Name (case‑sensitive).
Wrong lot size Conflicting lot settings Ensure only one lot‑sizing method is active (the EA prioritizes).
Symbol not found error Symbol name mismatch Use prefix/suffix mapping on the Client to match your broker.
EA shows grey face / “offline” AutoTrading disabled Click AutoTrading button on toolbar, and check Tools > Options > Expert Advisors > “Allow Automated Trading”.
