Company news
Dear users, clients and partners,
On behalf of our team, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. May 2012 bring you prosperity and welfare, high-profile successes and sincere joy, new feats and accomplishments. Thank you for being with us this year. We hope that the year 2011 was successful for you, and that our products were helpful in your daily activities.

2011 was very fruitful and extremely important for us. In 2011 we officially released mobile versions of the MetaTrader 5 trading platform for the popular Android and iOS operating systems – traders finally received a convenient tool for trading in financial markets at any time and from anywhere in the world. Another important event was the launch of the MQL5 Cloud Network. Through this service, people requiring processing power to solve their tasks meet with those who are ready to provide it.
One more remarkable achievement of the year was the fact that automated trading finally spread to the masses, and is no longer a closed prerogative of professionals. MetaTrader 5 now includes a generator of trading strategies MQL5 Wizard, and the mql5.com provides a new Market of MQL5-programs. Both steps helped to popularize use of trading robots in the financial markets and have attracted lots of new traders in this field.
In addition, we started providing the free version of the TeamWox groupware to all educational institutions. This entailed the increase in the number of TeamWox users and proved the relevance of automation not only in business but also in social institutions.
Another important innovation in TeamWox is the introduction of IP telephony. Now our system includes a simple and reliable VoIP module for communications within an office and for making external calls. This innovation fits into our strategy aimed at creation of a company's single information field: instant access to business information from anywhere, easy tools for communicating with colleagues and a comfortable space for solving company's tasks.
Thank you again for your support and we promise that we will continue to create the best software for you!
Happy Holidays!

The Capital Markets Technology event took place from the 25th to the 27th of October 2011 for the first time in Sao Paulo, Brazil. MetaQuotes Software Corp. sponsored and actively participated by showcasing its the most technologically advanced multi asset trading platform to date, MetaTrader 5. The event was attended by the most important stakeholders of the Brazilian market including brokerages and banks, and crowned with great success.

The event was highlighted with numerous seminars and networking meetings with all stakeholders of the Capital Markets, along with a handful of national and international software vendors and companies showcasing their solutions, and offering their services to the Brazilian market. Gaies Chreis, the Deputy CEO of MetaQuotes Software Corp., has commented on this event:

Today, MetaQuotes Software Corp. has launched a new service MQL5 Cloud Network. This is a cloud computing network, which connects computers of many users around the world and distributes resources among them. This network will be useful for those who need additional power for their tasks, and for those who can provide such power for a fee.

"The MQL5 Cloud Network allows traders to quickly optimize their automated trading," - said Renat Fatkhullin, CEO of MetaQuotes Software Corp. "Owners of free resources that are involved in the new service get a new source of income. Thus, the MQL5 Cloud Network builds bridges between those who need productive capacities and the owners of spare resources."
The launch of the MQL5 Cloud Network is a logical step in the strategic program aimed at accelerating optimization. First, remote testing agents were added in the terminal, through which multi-threaded testing became possible. This allowed traders to greatly increase the speed of Expert Advisor optimization. With the launch of the MQL5 Cloud Network, they can finally forget about long hours and days spent waiting for the completion of testing. And most importantly - the processing power of the network is available not only to traders, but also to anyone who needs additional power. For example, for research involving complex calculations.
To start working in the MQL5 Cloud Network, you only need to download and install the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester Agent. Optimization of complex trading robots requiring a lot of computation is no longer a problem!

By this criterion the Italians will be competing on equal terms with representatives of Bulgaria, while yielding one place to Japan.
The Sponsors of the Automated Trading Championship 2011 are MIG Bank, Go Markets and Vantage FX. The Media Sponsor of the Championship is Forex-TSD.

About a hundred of them visited the stand of MetaQuotes Software Corp. and met with our specialists.
Most of the event exhibitors were satisfied with their participation in MEFTEC 2011.

MetaQuotes Software Corp. also benefited greatly from their participation in MEFTEC the same way. Gaies Chreis, the Deputy CEO of MetaQuotes Software Corp., has commented on this event:

Today MetaQuotes Software Corp. has launched the Automated Trading Championship 2011. It means that soon you will witness an exciting battle of trading robots for the prize of $80,000. Once again, different strategies underlying Expert Advisors will come together in a fierce battle. And once again the attention of the entire community of traders will be directed to the dramatic change of leaders, the sudden rises of recent outsiders and unexpected falls of acknowledged masters.
Registration for the Championship starts today and will continue till September 23, 2011. During this period, anyone can submit an application and compete for the prize of $80,000. Participation in the Championship is free.

This year’s Championship will be even more interesting and exciting than ever before. The MQL-developers have had enough time to study the new features of the MQL5 language and are ready to enter the new Championship fully armed. In addition, the appearance of the MQL5 Wizard will significantly increase the number of participants, because now the development of Expert Advisors is available to anyone, and not only to experienced MQL-programmers.
“Over 300 Expert Advisors participated in the previous Championship, - Stanislav Starikov, the Championship Jury member, said. – This year the number will increase substantially – we expect to receive several thousands of applications for participation. The reason for this surge lies in the recently released MQL5 Wizard, using which any trader without programming skills can easily create a trading robot. Although, this would not guarantee a victory in the Championship, of course”.
Trading robots written in MQL5 are allowed to enter the competition. The Championship will start on the 3rd of October and will end on the 23rd of December.
