Broker capacity

Broker Capacity is your monthly pool of live broker connection slots on Chartnaut.

Each enabled MetaTrader link reserves capacity while connected. Demo accounts are typically free. Manage the pool under Trading → Accounts and on the Dashboard accounts card.

How capacity works

  • Your plan includes a fixed number of capacity units per month (Starter, Pro, Ultra differ)

  • Enabling a live MT5 account reserves one slot

  • Disabling or deleting a connection frees the slot for another account

  • Capacity resets on your billing cycle — check Settings → Subscription for dates

Public docs use Broker Capacity. Older internal names may say link credits — same idea.

Plan sizes (typical)

Pull exact numbers from your plan card in the product. Rough guide:

Plan

Role

Starter

One live setup — fine for a single MT5 account

Pro

Multiple accounts or desk + personal

Ultra

Prop-style or many simultaneous links

Demo does not consume capacity on standard plans. Confirm on your Subscription page if unsure.

Free a slot

From Trading → Accounts:

  1. Disable an account you are not trading today — keeps history, stops reservation

  2. Or Delete a connection you no longer need — removes the link entirely

  3. Refresh capacity indicator — freed slots should appear immediately

You cannot enable a new live link if the pool is full. Disable something first or upgrade plan.

Capacity vs other limits

Broker Capacity — how many live broker connections you can hold.

AI usage — separate pay-as-you-go credits for AI features — not bundled in plan price.

Research limits — definitions, studies, events — different counters on Subscription.

Do not confuse capacity with backtest count or trade snapshot limits.

Dashboard view

Navigate → Dashboard shows a compact capacity readout next to connected accounts.

Use it as a morning check before enabling an extra MT5 login.

Important distinctions

Broker Capacity applies to live MetaTrader links — not Backtest sessions.

Replay does not use broker capacity — no broker required.

Demo is for live-tick practice without spending MT5 slots on most plans.
