XENO
Four steps to a free XENO licence.
The free licence is funded by broker rebates, so it only works on an account opened through the IB link. Work through the steps in order, then submit your details for automatic verification.
- Cost
- $0 — lifetime
- Accounts covered
- 1 MT5 account
- Brokers
- Vantage or VT Markets
What happens, in order.
After your MT5 account is ready, submit your details through the registration form. The system verifies the account against the IB list before creating your login and licence.
Register via the IB link
Pick a broker below and sign up through the link. An account opened any other way cannot be activated later.
Verify your identity
Upload ID and proof of address in the broker portal and wait for approval before trading.
Open an MT5 cent account
Create the trading account itself. A cent account lets you run XAUUSD with a smaller deposit.
Claim your licence
Submit your name, email, broker and MT5 account number for automatic verification.
Choose your broker.
Both run the same EA on identical terms. Vantage is the broker used for the live proof account; pick VT Markets if Vantage is unavailable where you live.
Already have an account with either broker? It only qualifies if it was opened under this IB link. Ask on Telegram before opening a second one.
Submit your registration details.
Use the same name and email registered with your broker so the system can match your MT5 account correctly.

Asked most often at this step.
Why is the free licence tied to these two brokers?
It is paid for by the IB rebate on that account. Without the rebate there is nothing funding the licence, which is why an account opened outside the link — or with any other broker — cannot be activated.
Can I move an existing account under the IB link?
Usually not — broker IB tagging happens at registration. Message Telegram with your account number first so it can be checked before you open anything new.
How long does activation take?
Activation is manual and depends on when your details are matched against the IB list. Send the message once and wait for the reply rather than resending.
Can I run the free licence on a second account later?
No. Free access is bound to one MT5 account number on the server. Running more accounts needs the 5-account or unlimited licence.
Do I have to deposit before activation?
The account has to be verified and open. Deposit at least 20,000 USC before running the EA, otherwise the grid has no room and the equity kill-switch may trigger early.
