It’s designed for professional and retail traders alike, offering advanced charting tools, support for algorithmic trading (via Expert Advisors), hedging capabilities, and one-click order execution. It’s widely used in prop trading and retail forex due to its speed, flexibility, and depth of features.

Why This Integration Matters

Until now, trading with FundedNext required switching between platforms—copy trades, connect brokers, launch desktop MT5. With this direct dashboard integration, you now get everything in one place. From opening trades to viewing analytics, everything is connected under one interface optimized for funded trading.

With the new MT5 terminal embedded directly into the FundedNext dashboard, you no longer need to install external applications or switch platforms. Simply log in to your FundedNext account, launch MT5, and begin trading—all from your browser. This is ideal for traders using multiple devices or working remotely, as no downloads or configurations are required.

Speed and Security via GrowthNext Server

FundedNext has also launched its proprietary GrowthNext server, a next-generation MT5 server architecture designed for faster execution and lower latency. This custom server enhances trade reliability and reduces delays, especially during high-volatility market conditions. GrowthNext is exclusive to FundedNext and engineered for prop traders who need performance at scale.

Broker License Context

This integration follows FundedNext’s strategic expansion, including securing a regulated broker license. This move positions FundedNext as one of the few prop firms offering a fully licensed MT5 experience. The license ensures compliance, investor protection, and stable infrastructure for high-volume traders.
