MetaTrader 5 news

In 2010 MetaQuotes Software Corp. started development of a platform for mobile trading. In January 2011, we reported the release of its first version, in which you could only trade and monitor your account. By March, interactive charts were included into the program, which allowed traders to visually track price movements. Today we are pleased to announce a new version of the MetaTrader 5 iPhone. Its main feature is the long awaited support of technical indicators.

"The functionality of the mobile platform was growing daily to provide wider opportunities to traders," - Denis Abramov, the leading developer of the mobile platforms department, explained. "Finally, its third version is ready - now technical indicators can be applied in the program. Of course, we will continue to expand the functionality of the platform and improve it - this is an ongoing process in our company."

The new MetaTrader 5 iPhone includes 14 technical indicators, and the number of analytical tools will be further expanded. You can simultaneously open up to 10 indicator windows in the application. Moreover, you can apply an indicator to the main chart window or to other indicators. In short, with the release of the updated MetaTrader 5 iPhone, the arsenal of mobile traders has grown considerably.

The MetaTrader 5 iPhone mobile platform is available absolutely free of charge. To start working with the application, download the MetaTrader 5 iPhone in the AppStore and run it. After that you only need to select a broker from the list and open an account. Nothing else is needed - this powerful tool for mobile trading with technical indicators is in your pocket!

We are glad to announce that MetaTrader 5 for Android will be released in this late summer. You'll be able to trade Forex and Stock Markets using smartphones and tablet PCs powered by OS from Google.

MetaTrader 5 for Android release schedule will be the same as for the iPhone mobile trading platform. In the initial version traders will be able to receive real-time quotes, trade and view history of trading operations.

Charts and Technical Analysis will be available in subsequent versions. Stay tuned for news!

The new version of the MetaTrader 5 for iPhone contains a number of changes aimed at achieving even more convenience of the application. The program interface is available not only in English, but also in Russian and German - this is the result of localization.

Now it is also more convenient to work with charts. The earlier versions supported only the landscape orientation - in the new version simply rotate your device to switch to the portrait mode.

In addition, the iPhone version now supports display of expanded quote information. The window of quotes contains spreads, time, High and Low prices to provide traders access to the full price information in the real time mode.

We will continue to expand the functionality of the mobile terminal. The next version of the MetaTrader 5 for iPhone will support use of indicators. This means that traders will receive a powerful trading tool with almost the same features as the desktop version of the MetaTrader 5. This exciting combination of portability and reach functionality opens up even wider opportunities to traders.

Some time ago, we announced the launch of the beta version of our new Market service on MQL5.com. To date, virtually all the necessary works have been completed and we are pleased to present to you a Market of MQL5 programs. This is a meeting place for traders who need Expert Advisors or indicators, and MQL5 developers who are ready to help them.

We gradually expand the boundaries of automated trading from a purely professional category letting it spread to the masses. Obviously, automated trading requires much more place than just a community of MQL programmers - it is time to move a level up. The release of the MQL5 Wizard made it available to ordinary traders without programming skills. Furthermore, the launch of the Market will accelerate this process. Automated trading finally loses its status of a "closed community privilege".

We have made every effort to ensure that ordinary traders can benefit from all the advantages of auto trading. "Now, traders can access all the wide opportunities, - Alexander Saidullin, the head of trading platforms department of MetaQuotes Software Corp said. A necessary Expert Advisor can be ordered using the Jobs service, created in the MQL5 Wizard or purchased in the Market. Thus, there are three different ways to get a desired application. And whatever way a trader chooses, he will get a workable Expert Advisor ready to trade in financial markets".

We invite all developers of MQL programs to the Market – fill out an application, register and sell your programs. The more popular your product is with the MetaTrader 5 users, the more money you earn.

We are pleased to announce that the MetaTrader 5 platform has been certified by the RTS. This means that any brokerage firm working at the stock exchange can use our platform to provide services to their traders. Moreover, this is an exciting opportunity for Forex brokers to expand their businesses and offer stock trading options to their clients.

"We have done a great job, and we are happy that it has completed successfully. However, we still have much to do, since we are planning to expand to other exchanges. We will announce our future plans in this area soon, so follow the news," - said Alexander Saidullin, the head of the MetaTrader 5 development group.

We are pleased to announce the release of a new version of the MQL5 Wizard. This version contains an important function: now trading robots can be created based on different combinations of symbols. This innovation allows using sophisticatedanalysis and getting more accurate signals. Ultimately this will increase the number and variety of automated trading programs created using the Wizard. Currently the MQL5 Wizard includes about 20 trading signals that can be combined to produce a variety of different algorithms.

With the release of the Wizard the distance between a trader and an MQL5 Programmer has been reduced to a minimum. These new features open up new horizons to ordinary traders. All the exciting technologies that used to be the prerogative of experienced EA developers, are now available to the large army of traders. All that you need for creating your own robot is the MetaTrader 5 Client Terminal and a few minutes. In just a few clicks you can create a trading robot based on any elaborate strategy.

This is a truly revolutionary step in the development of automated trading. Never before has this technology gone beyond the scope of MQL-developers. Now the rich functionality of the MQL5 environment is available to any trader. Install the MetaTrader 5 Client Terminal and start writing your own Expert Advisors. And it does not matter whether you have programming skills or not.

"We have decided to make automated trading available to a wide range of traders , - says Renat Fatkhullin, CEO of MetaQuotes Software Corp. - We in MetaQuotes have done a lot to catalyze the development of automated trading. But the most important step is just beginning – automated trading goes beyond the community of MQL-developers and is becoming finally available to the masses!"

The new version of the MetaTrader 5 Mobile includes interactive charts. It means that with the new terminal, traders receive enhanced opportunities – in addition to trading, they can conduct visual analysis of the market situation. Charts can be scaled and scrolled, as well as their period can be changed from a minute to a daily timeframe. All these enhanced features are available in the mobile terminal that can be downloaded from AppStore.

Future updates of the MetaTrader 5 Mobile will make it even closer to the desktop terminal. In the upcoming version, analytical tools will be included in the Mobile Terminal to provide even more opportunities to traders.
