The participants have learned about the latest new features added to MetaTrader 5 like trading stocks, options, futures in addition to Forex using one single platform and how it can be utilized for their businesses.

Quoting from another trader/programmer who said: “MetaTrader has gained a huge following in the past five to six years, particularly with the release of MT4. MetaTrader 5 will likely prove to be a true next generation platform, with structural changes that will make it an altogether different and more powerful animal. I look forward to its release.”

Here are some of the futures of the upcoming Metatrader 5 platform:

• Working with MQL5 will be easier than MQL4 (for a number of reasons, including reading/writing programs);
• There will be more data types, structures, classes;
• Faster execution speed;
• Like MT4, the development environment will be released before the trading terminal;
• Easier to transfer C++ source codes into MQL5.
