MetaTrader5 for Silicon

SiliconMetaTrader5 (macOS Silicon Optimized)

Developer: Bahadir Umut Iscimen

A Python wrapper for MetaTrader5 that enables seamless Algorithmic Trading on macOS (Apple Silicon M1/M2/M3) via Docker/Wine.

This library acts as a bridge between your native macOS Python environment and the MetaTrader5 terminal running inside a compatibility layer (Docker/Wine).

Features

• macOS Silicon Native Feel: Use import siliconmetatrader5 directly in your Mac's terminal or IDE (VSCode, PyCharm).
• High Performance: Optimized for low-latency IPC with the Dockerized MT5 engine.
• Full Compatibility: Supports 99% of the official MetaTrader5 Python API.

Prerequisites

You need the accompanying Docker engine running. Please refer to the Main Repository Layout for full setup instructions.

Installation

pip install siliconmetatrader5

Usage

Once your Docker engine is running:

from siliconmetatrader5 import MetaTrader5

# Connect to the Dockerized MT5
mt5 = MetaTrader5(host="localhost", port=8001)

# Use it just like the standard library
if mt5.initialize():
    print("Connected to SiliconMetaTrader5!")
    print(mt5.terminal_info())
    mt5.shutdown()
