MetaQuotes

The developments on expanding the web platform features are in full swing. Our immediate and most important objective is to provide web traders with technical analysis tools. To address this task, we have started adding technical indicators into the web platform.

We have completely revised the chart display model making it possible to apply multiple indicators simultaneously. The indicators can be displayed in a selected symbol window, as well as in a separate one. The ability to configure the indicator parameters has also been implemented. At the moment, our developers and QA specialists are thoroughly testing all the features to ensure stable operation of analytical tools.

The Moving Average trend indicator is already available in test mode — and this is just the beginning. MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence) oscillator is to become the second tool to be implemented, so that it is possible to assess the operation of indicators working in a separate window. Further on, we will gradually add other technical indicators as all necessary preparations have already been made. Thus, web traders will be able to use a similar set of technical tools for quotes analysis as the ones in the MetaTrader 4/5 desktop versions.

Additional new features include:

1. The interface has been translated into 9 new languages ​​- Arabic, Bulgarian, French, Indonesian, Malay, Polish, Thai, Turkish, and Vietnamese.
2. All open charts can now be observed as a separate list. To do this, click the button in the upper right corner of the toolbox.
3. The chart settings are now saved for the entire web terminal rather than a certain trade account.

Stay tuned! The new batch of technical indicators is to be added soon.

Today, MetaQuotes Software Corp. turns fifteen — fifteen years of evolution, leadership and technological innovation.

The MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 trading platforms developed by the company have become the industry standard, and popular among millions of traders around the world. In fifteen years there were thousands of released builds, millions of lines of code, and continuous improvement of services and products. The MetaTrader platforms have come a long way, evolving from a tool for trading into an entire ecosystem offering a variety of services, such as the market of trading applications, social trading, built-in virtual hosting, freelance and much more.

The company is growing further, strengthening its presence on the world map. In 2015, MetaQuotes Software has opened its new representative offices in Japan, Thailand, and Pakistan, thus increasing the total number of offices to twelve! This year, MetaTrader 5 has been launched at Borsa Istanbul (BIST), Brazilian Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange (BM&F Bovespa), Dubai Gold and Commodities Exchange (DGCX), Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), South African Futures Exchange (SAFEX), and Pakistan Mercantile Exchange (PMEX).

This year has also seen a breakthrough in web trading. The company released the MetaTrader 4 web platform allowing everyone to trade via their browsers. This event sparked great interest among brokers — more than 100 companies ordered the web platform and started offering it to their traders within the first month after the release.

The range of trading robots and technical indicators available in the Market has been considerably expanded — more than 6 800 various applications are available for download. Now, it is possible not only to buy but also to rent trading robots. The MetaTrader platforms for iOS and Android are developing actively as well. Lastly, the Japanese version of the MQL5.com website has been launched and over 30 video tutorials for traders have been released.

We will continue to improve our products and want to thank you once again for your choice and support over the years. Fifteen years is not a particularly long period for a potent company, which means that the most exciting things are yet to come!

The new version of the MetaTrader 5 Android is already available for download on Google Play.

What's new:

1. Improved symbol chart zoom: increased the amount of zoom steps and enhanced display smoothness.
   
2. All changes in the set of symbols and their sequence in the Market Watch and chart settings (scale, color scheme, object and indicator lists) are saved after closing the application in any way.
   
3. Added a face value and accrued interest in bond properties.

The necessary funds are first deposited to your MQL5.community account and the payment is performed from your MQL5 account instantly. Thus, you always have a complete and clear history of all your virtual hosting and signal subscriptions.

Pay for the MetaTrader 4 built-in services directly from the terminal, via the integrated payment systems. Now, the platform has everything you need!

Japan is among the top seven countries by the number of MQL5.community site visitors. We want to make this large audience feel comfortable on our resource. To break the language barrier for our Japanese speaking users we are launching a special localized site version at https://www.mql5.com/ja.

MQL5.com contents were available in five languages until now, and Japanese is the sixth language presented on the website. We want to be understood by all 800,000 registered MQL5.community users, therefore we keep expanding the content localization. Speaking the same language with a trader - that's what we strive for.

The latest version of MetaTrader 4 iOS supports two-factor authentication using One-Time Password for connection to a trading account. Now, a verification code can be requested in addition to login and password when logging in to a desktop or tablet terminal. The code is generated by the MetaTrader 4 iOS app. To start using one-time passwords, users need to bind their trading accounts to the password generator.

Another new option of MetaTrader 4 for iOS is trading from a chart with a single touch (similar to one-click trading). Turn your device into a horizontal position and open a quick trade panel.
