MT4 and MT5 trading account passwords can be updated or reset directly inside the VT Markets Client Portal or the VT Markets App. If you have forgotten your password, a secure reset link can be sent to your registered email address.
Before you change or reset your trading account
Understand credential separation and password complexity before updating your access.
Independent credential structure: Your MT4/MT5 trading account password (used exclusively to log in to trading platforms) is completely separate from your Client Portal password. Changing one will not affect the other.
Master vs. Investor trading password: This procedure updates your master trading password (full trading authority). If you only need to grant read-only view access, configure an investor password directly within the desktop terminal.
