MT5 API Connect to server

You just need user, password and server address to esteblish connection with MT5 account.

void Run()
{
    var api = new MT5API("45.76.194.231:443", 7371, "mt5api");
    api.OnConnectStatus += ConnectionStatus;
    api.Connect();
    Console.WriteLine("Balance = " + api.Account.Balance);  
}

private void ConnectionStatus(MT5API sender, ConnectStatus e)
{
    Console.WriteLine(e);
}

After first connection with IP address or DNS name you can connect with server name.

var api = new MT5API("EvolveMarkets-MT5 Demo Server", 7371, "mt5api");

Second way more safe, because IP address of the server cuold be changed by broker.

You also can take servers.dat file from your MT5 Terminal and put it to ./config folder of your application and connect with server name as shown above.

To extract information from servers.dat file use our tool Dat2Srv.
