MetaTrader 5 in South Africa: GT247.com launches the multi-asset platform

South Africa's top online stockbroker GT247.com has replaced its ageing legacy trading platforms with MetaTrader 5. The company's top management believe that MetaTrader 5 will enable them to remain in the sophisticated trading space, whilst offering their existing clients and new traders a world class functionality-rich trading platform.

GT247.com launched the first version of their own platform back in 2001. The company was the lowest cost online retail broker for traders, allowing South African traders the ability to trade international markets in local currency. However, over the years the company realized that the legacy trading platform started falling behind the times:

"We struggled to keep up with the features and benefits offered by other trading platforms and as such clients looked further afield for brokers with a more sophisticated system," says GT247.com chief of trading, Bradley Leather. "Our old platform simply didn't offer enough. Switching to MetaTrader 5 will now allow us to compete on a level playing field."

Bradley Leather, GT247.com Chief of Trading

Bradley Leather, GT247.com Chief of Trading

Leather says GT24.com will benefit greatly from the platform's seamless integration, rich functionality and mobile capabilities.

"Previously, we had different platforms for spread trading, as well as different portals for client service, admin and technical support. MetaTrader 5 combines all of these platforms and portals into one. Our old platforms were easy to use, but they were very limited in functionality. They were good for traders who simply wanted to buy and sell, or look at charts, but they didn't appeal to traders who wanted to plug in algorithmic strategies. Now, MetaTrader 5 is able to satisfy all categories of traders."

MetaTrader 5 Trading Signals Redefined

A new version of the Signals service for the MetaTrader platforms has been launched on the MQL5.com website. The updated version features a new designed and a more convenient display of information. The old-fashioned table with a large number of figures was replaced by a lightweight tile view displaying a collection of the most popular signal parameters.

MetaTrader 5 Trading Signals Redefined

The trader behavior analysis has revealed that traders only pay attention to from 3 to 5 most important values during their primary selection of signals. A universal measure of a signal's success is the number of subscribers, as well as its profitability, minimal risk and stability. The MetaTrader 5 Signals showcase now features these important metrics, while detailed statistics are available on the signal description page. Now, traders can easily choose signals from the showcase, and then thoroughly analyze and compare selected signals using detailed statistics.

Detailed statistics of trading signals

A new reliability parameter has been added to the MetaTrader 5 Signals Showcase for a quick evaluation of a signal. This aggregate value measures multiple parameters to simplify the comparison of signals in terms of investment reliability.

New reliability parameter

For example, in case of a large load on the deposit (Max Load %) or a huge increase in the monthly growth, this value is reduced. Conversely, a moderate monthly growth and deposit load normally reduce investment risks, so reliability is higher in this case.

Thus, the new showcase of MetaTrader 5 Signals enables a much faster preliminary search and analysis of signal providers. The new design, as well as the filtering and sorting options allow you to quickly find the desired signal among thousands of available offers. In addition, we have preserved the previous table view, so conservative traders can switch to their preferred format.

The new showcase of MetaTrader Signals

The updated MetaTrader 5 Signals showcase is already available on MQL5.com and it will be added to trading platforms after a behavioral study and the analysis of traders' feedback.

We invite everyone to test the re-designed Signals service on the website, from where you can also subscribe to a selected signal.

Andrey Kamyshanov

Andrey Kamyshanov, CEO of Brokeree Solutions

According to the top management of Brokeree Solutions, cryptocurrency markets are becoming increasingly popular among traders, while the rapidly growing demand for MetaTrader 5 makes it necessary for integrators to offer brokers a variety of applications for the platform. This is how the idea of developing the Brokeree Cryptocurrency Feed has been born. The feed is to stream Bitcoin data from cryptocurrency providers directly to the MetaTrader 5 platform.

"Since 2013 we’ve been working with cryptocurrency providers and supporting brokers in feed integration", says Andrey Kamyshanov, CEO of Brokeree Solutions. "During this time everyone witnessed a number of attacks, lawsuits, and shutdowns of crypto-exchanges: Mt.Gox, Cryptsy, Bitfinex, Bitstamp, BTC-e. Understandably, such cases combined with the unclear legal status of cryptocurrencies make people skeptical. Nonetheless, it’s evident that today’s blockchain technologies are continually improving, the numerous advantages are no secret to those in the know. Cryptocurrency markets are developing at an incredible pace and becoming increasingly popular among traders. Some of the financial companies are still skeptical about cryptocurrencies, but we believe that digital currency trading is already an essential part of financial markets. Our cryptocurrency feed for MetaTrader 5 will assist institutional customers in cryptocurrency market penetration and growth".

The rapid evolution of the forex business and the changes in the regulatory environment, all have been adopted and integrated in the MetaTrader 5 platform.
