TraderInsight.pro handles high volume IC Markets MT5 accounts: every scalp and Expert Advisor fill syncs to your journal in seconds across [forex](https://traderinsight.pro/assets/forex), [stocks](https://traderinsight.pro/assets/stocks), [crypto](https://traderinsight.pro/assets/crypto), and more. Hundreds of tickets a week do not fit in the MT5 history tab, but they fit in reports by hour, trade number, and robot. ## What does TraderInsight.pro do for a busy IC Markets account? It makes sense of the volume. Hundreds of scalps and EA fills turn into clear [reports](https://traderinsight.pro/features/reports) by hour, by trade number, and by robot, so you can see which hours are worth your time, how many trades is the right number, and which EA earns its keep. [Filters](https://traderinsight.pro/features/filters) narrow it down, and [AI](https://traderinsight.pro/features/ai) answers whatever is left. On a high volume account, small fixes are big fixes. Skip a few weak trades per session or one weak hour and the gain repeats every day you trade. Volume multiplies whatever you improve, which is why journaling pays off fast here. Keep it simple: look once a week, change one thing, and check next week whether it worked. ## Which IC Markets trades and events does TraderInsight.pro sync? Every filled IC Markets order on your MT5 account syncs, including [forex](https://traderinsight.pro/assets/forex) pairs, [stock](https://traderinsight.pro/assets/stocks) CFDs, [crypto](https://traderinsight.pro/assets/crypto) CFDs, other instruments your IC Markets server exposes, and more. Cash events such as deposits, withdrawals, fees, and dividends sync too where your server reports them, and [cash reporting](https://traderinsight.pro/features/cash-reporting) keeps those costs next to your trade P&L. ## How do I connect IC Markets MT5 to TraderInsight.pro? Install the TraderInsight.pro connector service in the MetaTrader 5 terminal you use for IC Markets, paste your API key, and fills sync in seconds with no file export. Use the MT5 login and server from your IC Markets account. Leave the connector service active so scalps and EA fills keep streaming while you trade. 1. Download the connector.
