MetaTrader Hints

At iFX EXPO International 2026, we spoke with Ahmad Khalaf, Chief Operating Officer at GTCFX, about the development of international brokerage businesses, the requirements of modern trading infrastructure, and the role of MetaTrader 5 and Ultency in helping companies scale. Ahmad believes that one of the key advantages of the MetaTrader ecosystem is centralized control. Liquidity, trade execution, and other services can be managed through the familiar MetaTrader 5 Administrator and Manager terminals, without the need for separate systems or additional training for staff. Another advantage is the ability to integrate trading data with SQL, Kafka, and other data storage and analytics systems. Watch the full interview to learn how MetaTrader 5 and Ultency help GTCFX expand its international business, deliver fast trade execution, and manage its entire trading infrastructure from a centralized environment.

During iFX EXPO International 2026, we spoke with Christos Kakourides about his long-standing partnership with MetaQuotes, the evolution of MetaTrader 5, and the new opportunities that the platform ecosystem creates for brokerage companies.

The key new feature in MetaTrader 5 Build 6060 is built-in support for the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and agentic AI. The terminal and MetaEditor now include an integrated AI Assistant that can help analyze markets and trading activity, develop MQL5 applications, explain code, identify errors, and automate complex tasks. In addition, we have introduced authentication using client accounts. Instead of using individual trading accounts, traders can now sign in using a single client account that combines all trading accounts linked to it. We have also significantly strengthened platform security by adding Passkey support for client accounts.

For brokers using Ultency, we have expanded trading request routing capabilities with the addition of new routing conditions. Read more...

During iFX EXPO International 2026, we met with Paul Mendoza, co-founder of UniPayment — a global payment provider integrated with MetaTrader 5's built-in payment system. In the interview, we discussed how the process of funding trading accounts is evolving and why payment speed is becoming one of the most important factors for modern brokers. Traditionally, traders have had to visit a broker's website, log in to their client area, select a trading account, and only then complete the payment process. Every additional step increases the likelihood that users will postpone the transaction or abandon it altogether. With MetaTrader 5's integrated payment system, this process becomes significantly simpler. Traders can deposit funds to their accounts directly from the trading platform — in just a few clicks, without being redirected to external websites or having to log in again. Funds become available almost instantly, allowing traders to respond quickly to market movements. Read more...
