Direct MT4 + MT5 connectivity
AetherHFT connects to your broker’s MT4 or MT5 trade server itself — there is no MetaTrader terminal to run. Type the server name, and it measures every access point from your VPS and selects the fastest.
MT4 + MT5 · Gold (XAUUSD)
Measure the lag.
Act in milliseconds.
AetherHFT connects straight to your broker’s MT4 or MT5 trade server, measures live whether your price feed moves before each broker, and executes on every account you switch on — inside the risk limits you set. One console, on your own Windows VPS.

Features
Everything a latency desk needs, in one console
Built for gold on MetaTrader 4 and 5, with the risk controls on from the first trade.
Live latency analytics
For each data source and each broker, AetherHFT shows which one moves first and by how many milliseconds — AHEAD or BEHIND. The optional lead guard pauses new entries on any broker your feed is behind.
A fast feed for each broker
Give every broker account its own fast feed — an ECN or FIX feed, a fast MT4 or MT5 account or a built-in crypto feed — or keep the shared lead. A feed’s prices reach only the accounts that use it.
Saved presets per account
Save your tuned settings under a name and give each broker account its own preset from the Slow Brokers tab.
Multi-account execution
One console for all your MT4 and MT5 accounts. The Active switch on each account decides who trades — untick it to stop one account at once.
Layered risk controls
Protection is on from the first trade, on every account.
- Daily drawdown kill switch per account
- A stop loss at the broker on every order, set from the real fill
- Gold-only order guard
- Emergency Close All on the Positions tab
Signed one-click updates
Every release in your year appears inside the app with its notes. One click downloads, checks the signature, installs and restarts — settings kept, typically in under 20 seconds.
Broker-reconciled journal
Every closed trade — including the ones your broker closes itself — is written to a daily CSV with its real profit and the full round-trip commission, as on your broker statement.
Your credentials stay yours
Passwords are stored encrypted on your server and only work for that Windows user. AetherHFT never sends broker or data-feed passwords, account numbers, balances or trades to us.
Optional extras, off by default
A two-leg lock that opens and closes a hedged pair as one, and hidden order comments. Both stay off until you switch them on.
New in 4.7
A fast feed for every broker
Trading several brokers? Each slow broker can now follow its own fast feed instead of one lead for all — every account individually tuned.
- Fast feed column on the Slow Brokers tab: pick a feed for each account, or Default to follow the lead.
- Used by on the Fast Feeds tab shows which accounts follow each feed.
- A fresh baseline whenever an account switches feed, so the normal price difference between two feeds is never mistaken for a signal.
- Stale-feed protection: a late feed pauses new entries only on the accounts that use it; open trades are still managed.

Why AetherHFT
Built differently from a terminal add-on
Compared with the typical retail tool for this job: an Expert Advisor running inside a MetaTrader terminal.
| AetherHFT | Typical EA in a terminal | |
|---|---|---|
| Connection to the broker | Direct protocol connection to the MT4 or MT5 trade server | Runs inside a MetaTrader terminal |
| Does your data really lead your broker? | Measured live, in milliseconds, per broker | Usually not measured at all |
| Several brokers, several feeds | Each broker can follow its own fast feed | Usually a single data source |
| Many accounts at once | One console, an Active switch per account | One terminal per account |
| Trade records | Reconciled with the broker’s own history, full commission | Terminal history only |
| Updates | Signed, one click, release notes, settings kept | Manual reinstall |
| Licence protection | Bound to your server and re-checked while it runs | Often none |
| Performance promises | None — we publish engineering facts | Profit claims are common |

FAQ
Questions, answered plainly
What exactly is AetherHFT?
Professional latency-arbitrage software for gold (XAUUSD) on MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5. It runs on your own Windows server, connects to your broker’s MT4 or MT5 trade server directly — no MetaTrader terminal — measures how your market data compares with each broker, and executes on every account you switch to Active, within the risk limits you set.
What does it cost?
We discuss pricing with each buyer one to one in the Telegram chat: message @AetherHFTbot and our team takes you through it. A licence covers one Windows VPS (its public IP) for one year, with every update released in that year, and it never renews automatically.
How do I buy, and how fast is delivery?
On Telegram: open @AetherHFTbot and send your VPS public IP and your broker and VPS provider. A member of our team replies in the chat with pricing and the payment details; once payment is confirmed, the licence is activated on your IP and the installer and guides arrive in the same chat — usually within a few hours.
How do I pay?
In the chat. Tell us how you would like to pay and our team sends the payment details there. Only trust payment details given inside @AetherHFTbot — and we never ask for your broker password.
Does it guarantee profit?
No. Results depend on your broker, your market data, your server and your settings. On brokers whose prices track the market closely, latency trading can lose after costs. Validate on a demo account first; the figures we publish are engineering facts, not trading results.
Is latency arbitrage allowed by brokers?
Many brokers restrict it and may cancel profits or close accounts. Confirm with your broker, in writing, that this style of trading is permitted on your account type before trading live.
Is there a paper or simulation mode?
No. Every connected account with Active ticked receives real orders — demo or live. Start with a demo account and switch accounts on one at a time.
What do I need to run it?
Windows 10/11 (64-bit) or Windows Server 2019–2025 — ideally a VPS in the same region as your broker’s trade server — an MT4 or MT5 account (demo or live) with a broker that permits this style of trading, and a market-data source (a free one is built in; professional feeds are supported).
Can each broker use a different fast feed?
Yes, since AetherHFT 4.7. In the Fast feed column on the Slow Brokers tab, pick a feed for each account — or Default to follow the lead. A feed’s prices reach only the accounts that use it, and a feed can never place an order.
What is the two-leg lock?
An optional mode on the Strategy & Risk tab, off until you enable it. It opens a hedged pair — a buy on one account and a sell on another, or both legs on one account that allows hedging — and manages the pair as one lock: it opens only when every lock account is connected and Active, and it is always closed as a whole. Each trade pays the spread twice and both legs pay overnight swap, so test it on a demo account first.
Can AetherHFT hide its order comments?
Yes, if you choose to. With Order Comments: Hide on the Strategy & Risk tab, AetherHFT sends its orders with no comment, so neither MetaTrader nor your broker shows “AetherHFT” on them. It still recognises its own trades by their magic number. It is off by default, and it hides the label only — your broker still sees every order, so confirm that this style of trading is permitted on your account.
How is the licence protected?
Each licence is bound to the public IP of your server. The app activates automatically there and re-checks its licence every 30 minutes with signed answers. If you change servers, send the new IP in the chat and our team moves the licence.
How do updates work?
Every release in your year appears inside the app with its release notes. One click installs it — the download is checked against the signed release — and AetherHFT restarts with your brokers, data sources and settings kept, typically in under 20 seconds.
What data does AetherHFT send to you?
Only technical data that licensing and updates need: your server’s IP, the app version, machine and build fingerprints, the computer name, whether the engine is running and how many broker accounts are configured. It never sends broker or data-feed passwords, account numbers, balances, positions or trades. Credentials stay encrypted on your server.
Is there a money-back guarantee?
Yes — a 7-day money-back guarantee. If AetherHFT is not right for you, ask in the chat for a full refund within 7 days of payment, for any reason. A refund switches the licence off.
Measure first. Trade when the numbers agree.
Start on a demo account, read the latency analytics and switch accounts on one at a time. Our team is one message away.
