The ceremony is attended by key industry players - CEOs, IT directors and top managers of 60 brokerage companies from Turkey and other Middle Eastern countries. Such interest stems from the trading platform features which significantly expand the portfolio of services offered by brokers. MetaTrader 5 provides traders with the widest range of tools for trading (both conventional and algorithmic one) and technical analysis.
"We target to provide our investors the opportunity to do the Forex and the VIOP transactions 7 times faster by providing them MetaTrader 5 also in the Gulf Area where we are established.
