# What Is TM Pro?

**TM Pro** is the always-on-top desktop operator surface that sits next to MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5. It talks to the terminal over a Windows named pipe and houses the **Order Ticket**, **Positions**, **Pending Orders**, and **Runtime** tabs.

Execution cockpit — not a signal product

TM Pro helps you place and manage orders with two-step confirmation. It does not generate Banana/Box/Wave signals and it does not replace your trading plan. Not financial advice.

## Why traders use it[​](#why-traders-use-it "Direct link to Why traders use it")

* Read the chart in MetaTrader; run sizing, stops, and exits in TM Pro.
* **Two-step armed orders** — queue a BUY/SELL, then confirm — so a single mis-click is less likely to send a live order.
* Exit templates such as break-even, trailing-candle, and swing-trail (availability depends on build).
* Narrow always-on-top window that stays next to a live chart.

## Platforms[​](#platforms "Direct link to Platforms")

TM Pro bridges **MT4** and **MT5** via the matching Expert Advisor / bridge components installed with your iTradeAIMS package. Confirm your grant and installer at [my.itradeaims.net](https://my.itradeaims.net/).
