"After the new regulatory amendments, the leverage decreased from 1:100 to 1:10 in Turkey. Now, our existing and new potential clients are even more interested to use the multi-asset platform", comments Emre Peser, Deputy Chairman of MetaTürk Software. "They can provide better services to their clients with the power of the MetaTrader 5 platform. Nowadays, brokers are mainly focused on futures trading via this platform, and after the completion of stock exchange integration with Borsa Istanbul the number of MetaTrader 5 brokers is expected to further increase".

The British developer Or-be announced the integration of their core product CRM Broker Modules with the multi-asset HFT MetaTrader 5 platform. The system broker modules provide abstract functionality with platform integration to allow brokers to control the infrastructure of online acquisitions.

Or-be broker modules allow for online account forms to be graded for AML and KYC, without the need for developer intervention. Brokers' finance departments can monitor trade reconciliations, and run P&L reports, either as a scheduled process or on an ad-hoc basis. In addition, any company can easily set up IB Portals for working with representing brokers, while the IB portals provide effortless access to monitor clients and activity. IBs can control their own tracking, and marketing activity in Or-be CRM.

Or-be broker modules also provide for an easy integration of multiple PSPs and separation of departments and acquisition workflows in any desired context, whether it's across departments, countries, languages or any other means.

"Integrating our broker modules with the MetaTrader 5 platform has been a core requirement of ours right from conception of our systems solutions," comments John Evans, Director of Or-be Systems. "To be able to say this so soon within our build process is testament to our team. We now look forward to the future with optimism and excitement, as we have a solution which will be of genuine benefit to any broker utilizing the MetaTrader 5 platform."

Migration of global brokers to MetaTrader 5 is entering a new round. Recently, a number of notable market players have announced the launch of the multi-asset platform with support for hedging. Among them are the international Forex broker IFCMarkets, Brazilian ModalMais, STP broker Caveo Brokerage from Kuwait and the Hong Kong-based STP Broker Perfekt Capital Limited.

"In addition to our own NetTradeX platform and MetaTrader 4, IFCMarkets now offers trading on MetaTrader 5 significantly enhancing the possibilities of our traders", says Agasi Vardanyan, Executive Director of IFCMarkets. "MetaTrader 5 provides a number of new features, improved functionality and expanded set of tools making the trading process more flexible and comfortable. The powerful algorithmic trading is implemented in the platform by means of the built-in MQL5 object-oriented development environment opening new horizons for professional traders".

"We are very excited with MetaTrader 5 launch at ModalMais and we expect it to become the most used platform by our clients in a very short period of time", adds Rodrigo Puga, CEO of Modal DTVM. "We have a huge demand from active traders and from Expert Advisors' users. Brazilian market lacks platforms like MetaTrader 5, where customers can easily program and execute their strategies with speed and assertiveness. We had invested in a solid and robust infrastructure to meet the highest standards and to offer the best MetaTrader experience for the most active traders in Brazil with the lowest possible latency".

"As a Kuwaiti company, our founders are traders with more than 10 years of experience", notes Hossam El Kashif, CEO of Caveo Brokerage commenting on switching to MetaTrader 5. "This reflected on our mission to make it easier to trade starting from our trading platform and moving to wide range of services. At the end of 2016, our plan was to move forward to better experience of trading. We realized that MetaTrader 5 is our solution once MetaQuotes announced that the hedging is now available. We realized that now we can offer better technology with more trading instruments including futures and stocks beside the regular Forex trading conditions that the clients used to have in MetaTrader 4. MetaTrader 5 will provide traders with the ability to trade US stocks, Futures, ETFs and FOREX.”

"The introduction of the widely demanded MetaTrader 5 hedging option has expanded opportunities for Forex traders bringing more traders to the platform", says Mallikarjun T. Patil, CEO of Perfekt Capital Limited. Along with other powerful platform tools like Depth of Market and standard timeframes, the hedging feature will give more confidence and flexibility in trading. Now, it is possible to have multiple positions per symbol, including opposite directed ones if the price moves against a trader".

The spreading migration to MetaTrader 5 continues: after the launch of Gold-i MetaTrader 5 Gateway, the famous UK-headquartered integrator Gold-i announced the release of Gold-i MAM Pro for MetaTrader 5. It is an advanced post-trade allocation tool for brokers and money managers using the multi-asset HFT platform. The solution is designed for the hedging option within the MetaTrader 5 platform and supports seven different allocation methods, enabling users to assign multiple sub-accounts to a single master account.

The Gold-i MAM Pro for MetaTrader 5 can run on existing MetaTrader servers, with no separate hardware required. With a flat rate monthly license fee, it is one of the most cost-effective MAM applications on the market for MetaTrader 5 brokers.

"MetaTrader 5, with its multi-asset capabilities, is a far superior platform to MetaTrader 4. We strongly advise brokers who aren't already doing so to plan their MetaTrader 5 adoption. Many of their competitors are either already offering the fifth-generation platform or are planning to introduce it imminently. Now that high quality plug-ins are available to support MetaTrader 5, there is no reason for brokers to delay,” Tom Higgins, CEO of Gold-i explains.

The Dubai Gold and Commodities Exchange (DGCX) recently launched a new financial product — Shanghai Gold Futures (DSGC). This is the first time a Chinese based futures product can be accessed outside of China and also traded and settled in Yuan.

'We are delighted that MetaQuotes with its MetaTrader 5 platform is proactively leading the movement to connect to the federally regulated, widely recognized, safe trading and clearing venue in the region - DGCX and DCCC,' says Gaurang Desai, Chief Executive Officer of DGCX. 'As our partnership continues to strengthen, their technology continues to offer a great opportunity for brokers to access and trade on the DGCX. This initiative of opening the MetaTrader 5 platform for the unique and only global Shanghai Gold Futures contract outside China is an important step in reaching out to their wider client and user base across the globe. We expect many more MetaQuotes customers to join DGCX community.'

'DGCX's Dubai Shanghai Gold Futures and Chinese Yuan Futures contracts are an important milestone in the internationalization of Chinese Yuan, it is also the core hedging tool for international investment institutions,' commented Yu Jiguang, the Executive Director of Apple Multi-Asset. 'In the future, Apple Multi Asset DMCC (AMA) will offer global Investors integrated financial solutions of the highest quality through MetaTrader 5.'
