How To Connect PU Prime To MT5

PU Prime supports MetaTrader 5 across Windows, Mac, mobile and web, and connecting is straightforward once you’ve created an MT5-compatible trading account. The one detail people trip over is the login credentials: your MT5 number and password are not the same as your Client Portal login.

When you open a trading account in the Client Portal, PU Prime emails you an MT5 login ID, a password, and the exact server name to use. Keep that email handy because the server name is the piece you’ll need to select during setup.

Connect MT5 On Desktop

  1. Download and install MetaTrader 5 from PU Prime’s platforms page (or from MetaQuotes).
  2. Open MT5 and go to File > Login to Trade Account.
  3. Type the server name from your account-opening email into the search box and select it. PU Prime runs separate live and demo servers, so match the one tied to your account.
  4. Enter your MT5 login ID and password.
  5. Click Login. A successful connection shows a live price feed and your account balance in the Navigator panel.

Setup Troubleshooting

A few troubleshooting notes from our setup:

  • “Invalid account” usually means the wrong server. Double-check that you’ve selected the correct server in your email and that it’s live, not demo.
  • EAs run fine on MT5 here. If you trade Expert Advisors or want individual stock CFDs, MT5 is a better fit than MT4, since it offers a wider range of order types and a broader selection of stocks.
