    "Credentials": {
        "Server": "host:port pf MT5 server",
        "Login": mt5-account-login,
        "Password": "mt5-login-password",
        "PasswordCert": null,
        "ConnectionTimeout": 30000
    }
}

Webservice Api

MT5WebAPI

File name: MT5WebAPI.json

{
    "Binding": {
        "Url": "http://hots:port"
    },
    "MT5": {
        "Server": "host:port of MT5 server",
        "ConnectionTimeout": 30,
        "StoreTime": 0
    }
}
