Byrdi

Byrdi is an expert advisor for MetaTrader 5 that treats several terminals as one connected portfolio rather than as isolated accounts. Instead of each terminal knowing only about its own positions, the nodes in a Byrdi network share the information needed to see the wider picture.

How it works

Most expert advisors run in a single terminal and react only to what that terminal can see. Byrdi is designed to connect separate MT5 terminals into a coordinated network, often described as a mesh. Each terminal acts as a node. A node can keep its own account, broker, traded markets, strategy, capital allocation and risk settings, while exchanging the data that makes portfolio-level awareness possible.

The stated aims of the network are to coordinate execution between nodes and to limit duplicated exposure, for example when two accounts would otherwise open the same directional position on the same instrument. The vendor also describes support for an AI model on each node. Check the product page for details of which models, services or external connections are involved, as these can affect cost and setup.

What this means in practice

• You can run different accounts or brokers side by side and still look at them as one portfolio.
• Each node keeps its own local settings, so one conservative account and one more active account can coexist.
• Shared information is meant to reduce overlap, not to replace your own judgement about position size.

Markets and timeframes

Byrdi does not tie you to a single symbol or chart period in the description we have. Markets and timeframes are chosen per node, based on the strategy you configure there. Confirm that each broker offers the symbols you want, and check contract sizes, spreads and trading hours on every account before going live.

Settings

Exact input names and default values are not listed here, so review the input panel after attaching the expert advisor. Areas to look for on each node include:

• Network or connection options that identify the node and link it to the others.
• Symbols and timeframes the node is allowed to trade.
• Lot size or capital allocation for that account.
• Risk limits such as maximum open positions or drawdown controls, if offered.
• Any options for the AI model or strategy module used on the node.

Use a demo account first to see how nodes behave together, and change one setting at a time so you can tell what each change does.

Installation

1. Open each MT5 terminal and choose File, then Open Data Folder.
2. Copy the expert advisor files into the MQL5/Experts folder.
3. Restart the terminal or refresh the Navigator panel.
4. Enable algo trading and, if the product requires it, allow web requests for the addresses listed in its documentation.
5. Drag Byrdi onto a chart, set the inputs for that node and confirm it is running.
6. Repeat on every terminal you want in the network, then check that the nodes can see each other.

Keep your terminals on a stable connection or a VPS if you plan to run them continuously, since a network depends on each node staying online.
