FAQ

Common questions.

Does Sentinel MT execute trades?
No. Sentinel MT is strictly a monitoring and recovery tool. It does not interact with your broker, execute orders, or modify positions.
Does it work with any MT5 broker?
Yes. Every MT5 broker and account type (demo or live). It auto-detects your broker name, account, server, and type.
What data does it send to your servers?
Only Machine ID (hardware hash), Order ID, and software version — for license verification. No trading data, no credentials, no financial information.
Can I monitor multiple MT5 terminals?
Yes. 1 to 10 terminals per PC depending on your tier. Each terminal has its own Guardian Heartbeat EA.
What happens when MT5 crashes at 3 AM?
Sentinel detects within 15s, creates backup, restarts MT5 with the correct profile, sends Telegram + email with screenshot. Total: under 45 seconds.
What if my PC reboots from a Windows update?
Auto-Logon and 4 scheduled tasks handle it. Windows logs in automatically, Sentinel starts, MT5 launches. No human action needed.
Can I access the dashboard remotely?
Set host to 0.0.0.0 in config.yaml for LAN access. For remote access, use Chrome Remote Desktop or AnyDesk.
Is there a free trial?
14-day free trial with full functionality, no credit card required. Starts automatically on first launch.
