2/1/2011

On February 1, 2011, the partnership agreement between the development company MetaQuotes Software Corp. and the global news publisher International Business Times (IBTimes) shall come into force. The companies have agreed on the integration of the IBTimes news feed into MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms.




Under this agreement, MetaQuotes Software has developed special news feeders for the MetaTrader platforms. They enable instant broadcast of essential financial information right in the traders' terminals. "IB Times is one of the world's leading publishers of financial information to help make right trading decisions. Our partnership allows transmitting this information directly to the traders' terminals", - said Renat Fatkhullin, CEO of MetaQuotes Software Corp.

These feeders are available free to all brokerage companies and banks. The brokers only need to install these plugins, get subscription from IB Times and start delivering comprehensive financial news to all the traders' terminals. Thus the agreement eliminates one of the problems brokers meet when starting a new business, and facilitates the launch of the new platform. This will also cut overhead costs of installation and maintenance of newswire services.

The partnership also has benefits for IB Times. The new agreement with MetaQuotes Software provides the company with access to the market of MetaTrader platforms. "We are happy to be entering into this partnership agreement. Now brokers have an easy and convenient way to subscribe to our newsletters, and we can efficiently broadcast our information to thousands of traders all over the world", - said Dev Pragad, Global Operations Director of IB Times.

Dear partners, customers, and users!


As 2009 comes to a close, we'd like to express our sincere gratitude for another year of your confidence in us, and in our products. We highly appreciate your exceptional support and hope that the coming year will be prosperous and successful to all of us.

The expiring year was extremely important for our company. In 2009 we officially released our new development - the TeamWox enterprise management system. Besides that, 2009 allowed us to come closely to the long-awaited release of the new trading platform - MetaTrader 5. We've done our best to achieve this result and provide you with new elaborate trading tools.

Unfortunately, this year we had to renounce the annual Automated Trading Championship. This fact was connected with the release of the MetaTrader 5 platform. However, being aware of the high importance of the Championship for traders, we officially announce that in 2010 we will conduct the Automated Trading Championship. This time we'll watch the contest of Expert Advisors written in the new MQL5 language.

You are valuable to us, and we promise to keep the highest level of our software products! We wish you a wonderful new year filled with abundance, joy, and treasured moments. May 2010 be your best year yet!

Dear clients,

Organization and conduction of the Automated Trading Championship is a very complicated and cost-consuming project. For the maintenance of this competition our company needs to involve tens of specialists from different departments. Among persons involved in the conduction of Championships there are developers of trading platforms and specialists of the software testing department.

MetaTrader 5 Trading Platform

As you might know, now we are engaged in the development of a new trading platform MetaTrader 5; its release is planned for this year. All our forces are now concentrated on the platform release, and soon it will be presented to you for beta testing. Focusing all our resources on this release, we don't want to be distracted from this target.

Besides, the new platform will contain a new environment for the development of trading strategies - MQL5 IDE. We find it more reasonable to conduct the next Championship using the new language. However, it is unlikely that potential participants will manage to learn MQL5 and write new Expert Advisors in it. Due to this the number of potential Participants may be much lower - this is sure to have a negative effect on the attraction of the Championship.

Taking into account all this we decided not to conduct the ATC this year. Instead of this we will concentrate our efforts on the release of the new MetaTrader 5 platform and next year we will conduct the Championship for Expert Advisors written in MQL5.
