# Trading GUI Quickstart
Updated: `2026-04-01T16:45:07Z`
## Shortest Safe Operator Flow
1. Open `https://trading.bizniz.cloud/`
2. Read the MT5 GUI badge on the root page:
- `Stopped`
- `Starting`
- `Running`
3. Click `Open MT5 GUI`
4. Enter the shared operator session password
5. Wait while the protected session page starts the browser-safe MT5 stack
6. If the GUI is still warming up, click `Refresh Status`
7. Once the page shows `Running`, use the embedded MT5 GUI or open the client in a new tab
8. When finished, click `Stop Session`
## What The Root Page Buttons Mean
- `Open MT5 GUI`
- takes the operator into the protected MT5 GUI flow
- if the session is locked, the operator is asked to unlock first
- `Start Session`
- requests start of the protected browser-safe MT5 stack
- `Stop Session`
- returns the MT5 browser session stack to the safe inactive state
- `Refresh Status`
- reloads the current page so the operator can see whether the GUI is stopped, starting, or running
## What To Expect
- if status is `Stopped`
- the root page shows a placeholder instead of a live preview
- if status is `Starting`
- the root page and session page will tell the operator to refresh after a few seconds
- if status is `Running`
- the session page shows the live snapshot and the embedded browser-safe MT5 client
## Boundaries
- demo-only
- no live trading
- no raw VNC, RDP, or X11 exposure
- sensitive backend services remain localhost-only
