I tried WebSocket and normal Socket and WebRequest the mt5 cannot make this connection because it send get request .I do not need http connection i need Tcp connection
I also tried c# dll file in the dll mt5 return cant found SocketIO library 

I was read the documentation and I dont found any solution ... if any one can help me 

this is example .Net dll 

using System;

using SocketIOClient;


namespace FSocket
{
    public static class Socket
    {

        public static async void ConnectToServer()
        {
            var client = new SocketIO("ws://127.0.0.1:8080/");

            client.OnConnected += (sender, e) =>
            {
                Console.WriteLine("aa");
            };
            await client.ConnectAsync();
        }
        
    }
}

Thanks

MQL5 does not natively support Websockets, only Sockets and a simple HTTP client, namely WebRequest.You would have to code your own Websockets code using the Sockets functionality.

However, all the natively supported network functionality is client-only and the URLs need to be allowed in the terminal's options.

Your example code is for C#, not MQL5, so we cannot test and evaluate it.

Show a proper MQL5 attempt with either native sockets or Webrequest and show the debugging log output for the attempt.

Also remember to enable the URLs in the terminal options.

We cannot help you if you don't provide proper technical details and a functional example to test and evaluate.
