MT5Account · Account Information — Overview

Quick guide to the four primitives that expose account metadata via gRPC. Use this page to choose the right call fast. Links below jump to the full specs.

📁 What lives here

• AccountSummary — one call, core metrics bundle (balance, equity, leverage, currency, trade mode, server time, credit).
• AccountInfoDouble — one numeric metric by enum (equity, margin, margin level, etc.).
• AccountInfoInteger — one integer property by enum (login, leverage, flags/modes, currency digits).
• AccountInfoString — one label by enum (name, server, currency, company).

🧭 Plain English

• AccountSummary → the "full blood panel" for your account: a compact bundle you can print to see if things look sane.
• AccountInfoDouble → one gauge reading (a single float).
• AccountInfoInteger → switches & knobs (integers, often 0/1 flags or mode codes).
• AccountInfoString → labels on the dashboard (human names/brands/currency codes).

Rule of thumb: need many basics at once → AccountSummary. Need one specific field → pick one of the AccountInfo* calls.

🟡 Cross‑refs & gotchas

• Formatting money? Combine AccountInfoString.ACCOUNT_CURRENCY with AccountInfoInteger.ACCOUNT_CURRENCY_DIGITS.
• Margin level is percent. AccountInfoDouble.ACCOUNT_MARGIN_LEVEL is already %, not a fraction.
• Flags are ints. Many boolean-like fields are 0/1 integers (e.g., ACCOUNT_TRADE_ALLOWED).

Minimal snippets

# Summary (bundle)
sum = await acct.account_summary()
print(sum.account_equity, sum.account_currency)

# One float
equity = await acct.account_info_double(account_info_pb2.AccountInfoDoublePropertyType.ACCOUNT_EQUITY)

# One int (digits)
digits = await acct.account_info_integer(account_info_pb2.AccountInfoIntegerPropertyType.ACCOUNT_CURRENCY_DIGITS)

# One string (currency)
curr = await acct.account_info_string(account_info_pb2.AccountInfoStringPropertyType.ACCOUNT_CURRENCY)
