MetaQuotes

The international broker has successfully completed testing of the new platform on demo accounts. The company clients can now open live trading accounts in MetaTrader 5 — ECN or Standard:

• Standard accounts are suitable for all types of trading strategies and provide access to financial markets with any deposit.
• ECN accounts are designed for professional traders, who prefer market execution of orders, sent directly to the liquidity providers.

The broker's team notes that the MetaTrader 5 interface allows traders to comfortably switch from MetaTrader 4, and outlines the important platform features:

• The extended set of minute and hour timeframes. It is possible to monitor price fluctuation at a wider time range using М2-3-4-6-10-12-20 and Н2-3-6-8-12 timeframes.
• One-click trading option in the Market Watch window.
• The built-in economic calendar features upcoming events marked in accordance with their significance. Also, press conferences and news releases schedule is now displayed in the chart of the corresponding instrument.

"For over 10 consecutive years, AMarkets has been focusing on providing easy and flexible trading services to its clients. Keeping up to date with the latest top-tier technologies, we closely monitor all market trends and introduce only the best trading solutions. MetaTrader 5 is one of them.

The international broker offers its customers trading via the fifth generation platform developed by MetaQuotes Software.

Exness broker strives to provide traders with the best trading conditions, realizing their professional potential.

Features of MetaTrader 5 offer from Exness:

• All advantages of Classic and Mini accounts
• Unprecedented reliability and execution speeds due to the use of the MetaTrader 5 architectural capabilities.

Petr Valov, Exness

— The launch of MetaTrader 5 is a clear signal of intent that we will continue to provide the very best in trading opportunities and experiences to our global community of traders, — says Mr Petr Valov, CEO of Exness. — We are proud of the great relationship we have with MetaQuotes Software, and are excited to see our traders enjoy the new platform's extended capabilities.

In March 2018, the British broker added MetaTrader 5 to its platform offering, and later in May launched DJIA stocks trading via this platform. Having noticed a growing interest in this new offer from traders, Darwinex decided to launch the "hedge-fund as a service" model from MetaTrader 4 to MetaTrader 5.

Under this innovative model, traders perform trading operations on their brokerage account as normal while Darwinex quotes their strategy into the DARWIN investable asset. The risk is standardized and managed by Darwinex itself. A separate risk management layer protects the investor and enables an apple-to-apple comparison across trading strategies.

Mr Juan Colón, Darwinex

Mr Juan Colón, CEO of Darwinex, said, "Since adding the MetaTrader 5 platform to our brokerage offering, we have seen considerable interest from traders around the world. Extending our 'hedge fund as a service' model to additional platforms and asset classes was the logical step forward. The launch of new services for MetaTrader 5 traders is in line with our policy towards achieving the status of the leading innovative broker."

The new platform is available as an automated investment service that can help brokerages increase their earnings. The platform allows businesses to launch an investment product in just a week and start attracting new clients. You can order the application in the MetaTrader 5 App Store — the store of ready-made broker software.

Mr. Artur Azizov, CEO of B2Broker

B2Broker's investment platform offers 3 account types:

1. PAMM. In this model, all investment accounts are combined into one big pool. A money manager trades in one big account and all investors receive profits and losses in proportion to their investments. This model is suitable for HFT traders, investment funds and professional traders
2. Social Trading. Investors copy deals of a selected money manager to their own accounts and can close them at their will. Also, investors can perform their own trading operations on such accounts. Social trading is the best way forward for amateurs and beginners, in learning how to trade, based on the experience of professional traders.
3. MAM. It is the most popular account type in countries with strict regulation. This product is suitable for professional money managers who wish to have flexibility in managing investors' accounts. MAM is a copier based solution: investors' accounts are not combined into one big trading account but are maintained as stand-alone elements. Investors are not able to trade on investment accounts as they operate in the read-only mode.
   

The integrator emphasizes, that the B2Broker 3 in 1 system runs via API — all copying operations are performed on the application side and do not load the MetaTrader 5 trade server. High execution speeds allow copying of 5,000 orders in less than a second. Being a service provider, B2Broker does not have access to sensitive data, since the system is hosted on the client's side.

Mr. Artur Azizov, CEO of B2Broker, commented, "When many providers offer similar products, it can be very hard to differentiate. The launch of our PAMM/MAM service can help brokerage companies make their offer outstanding, both for money managers and investors. In just one week, any MetaTrader 5 broker can launch our investment platform, which includes web-interfaces with a widget and a leader board of money managers. The price includes a one-time setup fee of $2,000, along with a monthly charge starting at $2,000/month, having a cap at $7,000/month."

Third-party solutions have become available to brokers straight from the MetaTrader 5 Administrator build 1860. Previously, the market was only available as a web service. The App Store now features over 80 products from 16 software providers, including various liquidity, money management and integration solutions, data feeds, affiliate services and much more. Now, the desired product can be requested straight from the platform.

The Client concept has been introduced in the new build, allowing storage of all accounts belonging to one trader in a single profile. Thus, all departments of a brokerage company can conveniently work with the client. Also, the latest build features new functionality for analyzing the trader database and the efficiency of marketing campaigns.

Various Client and trading account reports have been added in the MetaTrader 5 Manager terminal. These reports can quickly present large amounts of data and are provided with flexible filtering and sorting options. All processes in the platform are now conveniently visualized through dashboards.

The platform continues to evolve, so please follow the news.

The latest platform version features a revised start dialog: traders can select a broker first, and then choose the desired account type. To make the search easier and more efficient, company logos are additionally shown in the list. If you can't view the desired company, please type its name or server address in the search box.

We have added account descriptions in the dialog to help beginners choose the right account type. Now, traders can clearly see the difference between real trading accounts and risk-free demo accounts. To help brokers align with the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the updated account opening dialog contains links to the relevant agreements and data protection policies.

The real account acquisition procedure has become easier — MiFID and MiFID II regulated brokers can request the required information straight through the platform. In earlier platform versions, traders could upload documents through mobile terminals. Now, this functionality is also available in the desktop platforms.

The Dubai Gold & Commodities Exchange (DGCX) brokerage house has launched the MetaTrader 5 platform for its clients. As an active Broker Clearing Member of the DGCX, JRG International has consistently been ranked as one of the top ten firms giving access to the DGCX’s products covering Currencies, Equities, Precious Metals and Hydrocarbons.

JRG International Brokerage DMCC has over 30 years investment expertise inherited from parent companies JRG Securities LTD (listed on the Indian Stock Exchange) and Apple Multi Asset DMCC (AMA). In October 2017, Apple Multi Asset DMCC (AMA) officially acquired a 100% equity stake in JRG International. The purchase completes the blueprint to connect India, China and Europe through a strategic central point as part of the Belt and Road Initiative. JRG International is currently one of the fastest growing brokerage houses in the U.A.E. The company is licensed by Emirates Securities and Commodities Authority (ESCA) and Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC).

Mr Jiguang Yu and Mr Weihua Sheng, Directors of JRG International Brokerage DMCC

"Our efforts are focused upon empowering traders to trade on the Dubai Gold & Commodities Exchange using state-of-the-art technology and trading tools," says Mr Jiguang Yu, CEO of AMA and Director of JRG International. "Our acquisition of JRG and the introduction of the MetaTrader 5 Platform will help us to serve our customers better and also extend our services to multi-asset trading communities around the world."

"We welcome the expansion of Apple Multi Asset DMCC and we are pleased to see that they recognize the role which JRG International has played in being a staunch supporter of the DGCX," Mr Les Male comments, CEO of DGCX. "Further implementation of MetaTrader 5 will enable greater connectivity and speed for both themselves and their clients."

"The association with AMA and the launch of the MetaTrader 5 platform will place JRG International at a vantage point and will enable them to reach out to new traders," says Mr Gaies Chreis, Chief Operating Officer of MetaQuotes Software Corp. "We believe that MetaTrader 5 will dovetail with the existing core competencies within the company allowing a true powerhouse to emerge."

A new offer from the US-based integrator includes advanced price monitoring tools, enhanced maker connectivity, and an improved oneZero Liquidity Hub gateway. You can order these solutions in the store of the ready-made broker software for MetaTrader 5.

Direct Market Access (DMA) from oneZero Financial Systems enables sending buy or sell orders directly to an exchange order book instead of using an intermediary broker-dealer or market maker. The Advanced Maker Controls component provides users with real-time control over the pricing they get from liquidity providers. Featuring an easy-to-use, single-screen interface, users can monitor spreads, freeze pricing, and disconnect or restart maker pricing on a per-symbol basis without stopping the application. These key enhancements are accompanied by new nightly market data reporting which allows brokers to report their market data distribution to liquidity providers.

DMA capabilities cater to institutional and B2B clients. DMA features are configurable via the oneZero GUI or a scalable API which helps institutions fit the MetaTrader 5 gateway into their existing infrastructures. The integrator believes that the new solution will allow market participants to combine the technological power of MetaTrader platforms with the leading interbank liquidity providers.

"We’ve been experiencing a massive uptick in demand for these types of DMA capabilities, and we’re very pleased to bring them to the MetaTrader 5 platform," says oneZero CEO, Mr. Andrew Ralich.

USGFX was one of the first Australian brokers to offer MetaTrader 5 to their traders back in August2017. Now, after 9 months, the company is reaping the benefits of adding MetaTrader 5 to its choice of trading platforms by attracting new clients and increasing business from existing clients.

According to Shay Zakhaim, Chief Executive Officer, USGFX, "The architecture of MetaTrader 5 sets it apart from all other trading platforms in the market. It has become a platform of choice for many of our clients and has also attracted plenty of new traders to our brokerage. We regularly receive extremely positive feedback, especially from traders who have migrated from MetaTrader 4. They particularly like the additional timeframes and superior analytics available through the MetaTrader 5 platform.

Shay Zakhaim: "We regularly receive extremely positive feedback from traders who have migrated from MetaTrader 4 to MetaTrader 5"

A further advantage, according to Shay Zakhaim, is the integrated all-in-one multi functionality. He cites MetaTrader Market — which gives USGFX’s clients access to a vast online store of trading robots — as an additional key benefit.

USGFX deploys Gold-i's MetaTrader 5 Gateway for access to multi-asset liquidity providers. The Gateway enables traders to benefit from ultra-low latency and risk coverage with banks in real-time.

"We are very proud to have been an early adopter of MetaTrader 5, and we have worked with Gold-i for many years," adds Shay Zakhaim, commenting on the cooperation between the three companies. "Gold-i's MT5 Gateway enhances the multi-asset features of the platform and provides us with fast and reliable integration between retail and institutional trading systems."
