The three transfers
- Wallet → trading account. Funds a deposit into the account you trade from. Instant.
- Trading account → wallet. The first step of a withdrawal. Instant, subject to margin.
- Trading account → trading account. Goes through the wallet in one step. Useful for moving profit from an ECN account to a Standard one, or funding a new account.
There is no fee, and no limit on how often you transfer.
Steps
Step 1: Open Transfer
In the client area, choose Transfer from the wallet or the account's menu.
Step 2: Choose source and destination
The dropdowns list the wallet and every trading account with its current balance.
Step 3: Enter the amount and confirm
The balance updates in MT5 within a few seconds. If it does not, refresh the terminal with the Navigator's right-click → Refresh.
The margin rule
A transfer out of a trading account is refused if it would leave open positions without enough margin. The message says so explicitly. Either reduce or close positions, or transfer a smaller amount — the maximum available is shown as Free to transfer, which is free margin less a safety buffer.
The transfer shows completed but MT5 still shows the old balance.
Refresh MT5 or sign out and back in. The balance is on the server; the terminal caches it.
Can I transfer to another client's account?
No. Transfers are between your own wallet and your own accounts only.
