Boom indices are synthetic trading instruments available through Deriv. To access them on MT5, you need to create a compatible trading account with Deriv and connect it to the MetaTrader 5 application.

2. Connecting your Deriv account to the MT5 mobile app
3. Adding your preferred Boom indices to the MT5 Quotes tab

Let’s get started.

Here is a video on how to set up a Boom Indices Account on MT5

How to Create a Deriv Account for Boom Indices

Before you can trade Boom indices on MT5, you need to register with Deriv and create a trading account that supports synthetic indices.

If you don’t already have a Deriv account, you can sign up using this registration link 

1. Sign Up on Deriv

Visit the Deriv registration page , On the registration page, select your country and click Sign Up.

You will be taken to a page that looks like this:

You will be given different options for creating your account. Depending on the options available to you, you may register using your Google, Facebook, or Apple account, or enter your email address or phone number manually.

If you choose to register using your email address, enter it in the appropriate field and click Next.

Follow the instructions to verify your email address and complete your registration.

Once you have successfully signed up, log in to your Deriv account to access your dashboard.

If you already have a Deriv account, you can skip this step and proceed directly to your dashboard.

Step 2: Create synthetic indices Trading account

After logging in to your Deriv account, the next step is to create a trading account that allows you to access Boom indices through MT5.

Deriv provides different trading account options, so it is important to select the correct account type for your intended instruments.

The different account types you will see inside your Deriv account include

• CFD Standard
• Swap-Free
• Zero Spread
• Financial
• Gold
• cTrader

The options available may vary depending on your location, account eligibility, and Deriv’s current offerings.

Since you are looking to trade boom indices instruments, you need to choose the CFD Standard account, which is the account that contains all the synthetic indices instruments offered by Deriv.

Select CFD Standard from the available account options to view its details.

The CFD Standard account supports several markets, including:

• Forex
• Stock indices
• Cryptocurrency
• Synthetic indices
• Stocks
• Commodities
• Exchange-traded funds (ETFs)
• Basket indices

Since our goal is to access Boom indices, this is the right account type because it supports synthetic indices.

Before activating your account, review the trading conditions displayed on the account information page.

For the CFD Standard account, the displayed details include:

• Maximum leverage: Up to 1:1,000.
• Spread: From 0.1 pips.
• Commission: No commission.
• Minimum deposit: $1

These are the details shown during the time of this publication and may change. Always check Deriv’s current account specifications and trading conditions before opening or funding an account.

Remember that leverage can magnify both profits and losses. A low minimum deposit does not mean that trading is low-risk.

Once you have reviewed the account details, click Activate Real Account.

You will then be prompted to create or choose a password for your MT5 trading account.

After successful activation, your Deriv MT5 trading account should be created.

Click Done to return to your account dashboard.
