MT5 Manager Permissions: Least-Privilege Best Practices

How to structure MetaTrader manager and administrator permissions for dealing, support, finance and outsourced staff, with regular access reviews.

Key takeaways
  • Give each person only the rights their job needs.
  • Never share logins between people.
  • Review access monthly and on every staff change.

Design by role

  • Support: view accounts, limited changes.
  • Finance: balance operations and reports.
  • Dealing: monitoring and position management.
  • Administrators: configuration, restricted to named people.
  • External providers: only what the agreed scope requires.

Access hygiene

  • Named accounts only.
  • Strong passwords and IP restrictions for sensitive rights.
  • Remove leavers immediately.
  • Keep an access register.
