00:00:03.840 --> 00:00:04.280
How

00:00:04.320 --> 00:00:05.320
would you evaluate your

00:00:05.360 --> 00:00:06.320
history of cooperation

00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:07.440
with MetaQuotes?

00:00:07.680 --> 00:00:08.080
You know,

00:00:08.200 --> 00:00:08.600
to be honest,

00:00:09.120 --> 00:00:10.360
sometimes when

00:00:10.400 --> 00:00:10.920
you deal

00:00:10.920 --> 00:00:12.040
with companies,

00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:13.120
some companies are

00:00:13.160 --> 00:00:14.720
not very straightforward.

00:00:15.120 --> 00:00:15.640
Yeah. Right.

00:00:15.880 --> 00:00:17.120
So, ever since we

00:00:17.160 --> 00:00:18.200
started our cooperation,

00:00:18.200 --> 00:00:19.000
I've been speaking to

00:00:19.040 --> 00:00:20.040
you, I've been speaking to a

00:00:20.040 --> 00:00:20.640
lot of, you know,

00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:22.000
compliance guys as well.

00:00:22.200 --> 00:00:23.480
Everything has been straightforward.

00:00:24.200 --> 00:00:25.440
They obviously,

00:00:25.520 --> 00:00:26.240
you know, every one

00:00:26.240 --> 00:00:26.840
has like a

00:00:26.840 --> 00:00:27.840
list to

00:00:27.840 --> 00:00:28.880
be completed.

00:00:28.920 --> 00:00:30.000
We had that done.

00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:31.200
The cooperation was swift.

00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:32.560
There were no delays.

00:00:32.800 --> 00:00:33.040
You know,

00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:34.080
sometimes you have to wait a

00:00:34.120 --> 00:00:35.400
week for a response, two

00:00:35.400 --> 00:00:36.200
weeks for a response.

00:00:36.400 --> 00:00:36.800
Man, here,

00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:38.000
it felt like

00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:39.080
everything was,

00:00:39.120 --> 00:00:40.120
everyone was

00:00:40.160 --> 00:00:40.960
on top of everything.

00:00:41.360 --> 00:00:42.080
Which MetaQuotes'

00:00:42.080 --> 00:00:43.200
additional products does

00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:44.080
your company currently

00:00:44.120 --> 00:00:45.200
use? And how

00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:46.320
do they help your company to

00:00:46.360 --> 00:00:47.280
grow? Whenever

00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:48.160
someone starts a

00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:49.200
broker, just like we started

00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:50.400
a broker, we

00:00:50.400 --> 00:00:51.000
didn't really

00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:52.200
know what

00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:52.680
we needed.

00:00:53.360 --> 00:00:54.040
Right. In the

00:00:54.040 --> 00:00:55.000
beginning, you know, you need

00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:56.000
a platform to be able

00:00:56.040 --> 00:00:56.920
to trade, blah, blah, blah,

00:00:57.040 --> 00:00:57.640
boom, everything done.

00:00:57.640 --> 00:00:59.240
But then we

00:00:59.240 --> 00:00:59.840
didn't know

00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:01.480
that MetaQuotes had

00:01:01.480 --> 00:01:02.440
a plugin for,

00:01:02.440 --> 00:01:03.240
let's say, automation.

00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:04.240
Right. So

00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:05.120
we went for a third-

00:01:05.160 --> 00:01:06.400
party vendor, we

00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:07.040
got that done

00:01:07.080 --> 00:01:08.200
but then... You know, it's

00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:09.360
all about having conversations

00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:10.080
with

00:01:10.080 --> 00:01:11.080
your

00:01:11.080 --> 00:01:12.080
agents or reps

00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:13.240
that you have with the company. So,

00:01:13.240 --> 00:01:14.480
as you know, we had a conversation with

00:01:14.520 --> 00:01:14.960
you, we had a

00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:16.520
conversation with Theo, and

00:01:16.520 --> 00:01:17.280
we realized

00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:18.080
that

00:01:18.080 --> 00:01:19.200
MetaQuotes had

00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:20.720
their own automation

00:01:20.760 --> 00:01:21.080
plugin

00:01:21.080 --> 00:01:21.880
for bonuses,

00:01:21.880 --> 00:01:23.120
stop-outs,

00:01:23.160 --> 00:01:24.360
swaps.

00:01:24.360 --> 00:01:25.040
So,

00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:26.000
you know,

00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:27.000
that's one thing that

00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:28.000
really helped us in

00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:29.200
saving costs

00:01:29.240 --> 00:01:30.080
as well.

00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:31.200
Man, there's so many things

00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:32.200
integrated

00:01:32.240 --> 00:01:32.960
which, you

00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:34.280
know, as we're working

00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:34.920
every month —

00:01:34.960 --> 00:01:36.240
we find out

00:01:36.240 --> 00:01:37.560
that: Oh, wow. These

00:01:37.600 --> 00:01:38.000
things are

00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:39.000
also integrated like

00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:40.200
bonuses, swaps, and

00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:41.000
then now the bridge.

00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:42.000
What is your

00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:43.560
opinion on how MetaTrader 5

00:01:43.600 --> 00:01:44.600
has evolved over

00:01:44.600 --> 00:01:45.360
the years?

00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:46.680
In the

00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:47.800
last year and a half,

00:01:48.080 --> 00:01:49.000
the updates

00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:49.520
to the

00:01:49.520 --> 00:01:50.520
UI have been

00:01:50.520 --> 00:01:51.640
done on, let's say,

00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:52.720
the mobile app especially.

00:01:52.720 --> 00:01:53.160
Man,

00:01:53.160 --> 00:01:53.960
it's changed

00:01:53.960 --> 00:01:54.560
a lot of things.

00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:56.080
How does MetaTrader 5

00:01:56.120 --> 00:01:56.960
compare to

00:01:56.960 --> 00:01:58.320
other trading platforms in

00:01:58.360 --> 00:01:59.360
terms of functionality,

00:01:59.880 --> 00:02:00.280
performance

00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:01.080
and user

00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:01.720
experience?

00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:03.200
A trading

00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:04.720
platform — it

00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:05.080
just

00:02:05.080 --> 00:02:06.280
gives the ability for

00:02:06.320 --> 00:02:07.120
the clients to place

00:02:07.160 --> 00:02:08.480
trades, right?

00:02:08.480 --> 00:02:09.280
But

00:02:09.320 --> 00:02:09.640
I think

00:02:09.640 --> 00:02:11.080
that the

00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:12.360
biggest advantage

00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:13.040
there

00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:14.000
is obviously, it's

00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:15.120
that you were the first movers in

00:02:15.160 --> 00:02:15.560
the industry.

00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:16.720
And also

00:02:16.760 --> 00:02:18.080
the integration

00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:19.600
of IB

00:02:19.600 --> 00:02:20.360
and affiliates —

00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:21.240
no

00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:22.080
other platform has

00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:22.960
it, right?

00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:23.960
And

00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:24.960
you know, for

00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:26.040
a broker

00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:27.280
like us, if

00:02:27.320 --> 00:02:28.000
we

00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:29.440
want to grow our business, we

00:02:29.480 --> 00:02:30.160
want to...

00:02:30.160 --> 00:02:30.960
Like, okay, fine,

00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:31.920
you can onboard the retail

00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:32.960
clients, but then

00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:34.400
the biggest thing is if we onboard

00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:35.120
IB's.

00:02:35.160 --> 00:02:36.120
And

00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:36.960
no other

00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:38.360
platform has

00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:39.160
that integration.

00:02:39.160 --> 00:02:39.960
And I

00:02:39.960 --> 00:02:40.960
think that's what

00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:42.280
sets MetaQuotes

00:02:42.320 --> 00:02:43.120
apart from

00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:44.480
everyone else. Now

00:02:44.480 --> 00:02:44.920
you can have

00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:46.160
all the automation tools,

00:02:46.160 --> 00:02:47.120
everyone can have that.

00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:48.080
But that's what

00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:49.160
really grows the business

00:02:49.160 --> 00:02:49.960
a lot. So

00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:51.280
I think that's been

00:02:51.320 --> 00:02:51.800
one of the

00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:53.120
key reasons why

00:02:53.160 --> 00:02:54.200
we have grown so

00:02:54.200 --> 00:02:54.880
much with you, guys —

00:02:54.920 --> 00:02:56.360
with

00:02:56.360 --> 00:02:57.600
that integration,

00:02:57.640 --> 00:02:58.040
which is there.

00:02:58.080 --> 00:02:58.960
If you

00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:00.120
could improve one thing in

00:03:00.160 --> 00:03:01.520
MetaTrader 5, what

00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:01.760
would it

00:03:01.760 --> 00:03:03.240
be? Whichever mind

00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:04.640
is there in

00:03:04.640 --> 00:03:05.160
the company,

00:03:05.160 --> 00:03:05.960
which

00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:07.240
is

00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:08.400
looking for innovation,

00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:09.320
man... You,

00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:10.160
guys, got everything covered.

00:03:10.160 --> 00:03:12.360
The

00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:13.280
only thing that was missing was

00:03:13.320 --> 00:03:13.760
the bridge.

00:03:14.600 --> 00:03:15.440
And

00:03:15.480 --> 00:03:16.080
it's there

00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:17.200
as well. You

00:03:17.200 --> 00:03:17.960
know, but

00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:19.080
I would really

00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:19.480
want —

00:03:19.480 --> 00:03:21.160
in the future — I

00:03:21.160 --> 00:03:21.680
would really want to

00:03:21.720 --> 00:03:22.520
see how

00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:23.960
the UI

00:03:23.960 --> 00:03:25.360
becomes more

00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:26.680
modern.

00:03:26.720 --> 00:03:27.280
All

00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:28.160
right. Modern.

00:03:28.160 --> 00:03:29.000
But then,

00:03:29.040 --> 00:03:30.240
again,

00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:31.280
that's

00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:32.080
like the

00:03:32.120 --> 00:03:33.320
image of MetaQuotes

00:03:33.320 --> 00:03:34.320
itself.

00:03:34.320 --> 00:03:35.400
It's known for

00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:36.000
the UI it

00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:37.440
has now. So,

00:03:37.480 --> 00:03:37.960
I don't know

00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:39.360
how anyone's gonna feel

00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:39.800
about it,

00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:41.360
but so far

00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:41.960
it's

00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:42.800
very simple

00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:43.280
to use.

00:03:43.320 --> 00:03:44.960
And simplicity is

00:03:44.960 --> 00:03:46.080
the key.

00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:47.200
Because not everyone

00:03:47.200 --> 00:03:47.960
is, you

00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:48.960
know, tech-savvy

00:03:48.960 --> 00:03:50.040
enough to go through

00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:50.920
all the

00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:52.040
modern

00:03:52.040 --> 00:03:53.400
UI structure. But

00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:54.000
I think the

00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:55.240
simplicity is what's

00:03:55.240 --> 00:03:55.680
working so

00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:56.880
far. Anyway

00:03:56.880 --> 00:03:58.280
thank you so much for

00:03:58.280 --> 00:03:58.960
your time today

00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:00.040
and

00:04:00.040 --> 00:04:00.920
we will
