Is it safe to connect a trading bot to your broker account?
What a trading bot can and cannot do with your Exness account, why your money never leaves your broker, and the questions to ask before you connect any bot.
Connecting software to a trading account is a serious decision. Here is exactly what happens when you connect an Exness account to Arrissa REX 9 AI, and what does not.
Where your money is
Your money stays in your Exness account, in your name. Deposits and withdrawals are between you and Exness. We are a technology company, not a broker: we hold no client money and the bot cannot withdraw anything.
What the bot can do
- Open and close the trades of its own strategy on the account.
- Place and move the stop loss and take profit of its own trades.
- Read the balance and the bot's own positions to size the next trade.
How the password is handled
You enter your MT5 trading password in the mini app over an encrypted connection. It never appears in the Telegram chat. If you change the password at Exness, the bot simply stops trading until you update it.
How to stop
Tap Deactivate trading and the bot stops opening trades and closes the ones it opened. Remove the account in the app and the connection is gone. Your balance stays exactly where it is.
Start the bot, watch your free $10,000 demo trade, and connect your Exness account when you are ready.
Questions to ask any bot provider
- Who holds the money?
- Can I see every trade and why it was taken?
- Can I stop it with one tap?
- Is the past performance a backtest or real trading, and is that clearly said?
Risk warning. Trading leveraged products such as CFDs carries a high risk of losing money. Backtest figures are simulations, not real results, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Read the risk disclosure before you connect an account. Nothing here is financial advice.
