WEBVTT

00:00:15.452 --> 00:00:16.620
Hi everybody! We're here

00:00:16.620 --> 00:00:19.485
at the IFX Expo in 2026,

00:00:19.485 --> 00:00:20.518
here in Limassol, Cyprus.

00:00:20.518 --> 00:00:23.027
We've seen huge traffic and

00:00:23.020 --> 00:00:24.580
huge interest coming here

00:00:24.601 --> 00:00:26.341
at our booth to learn more

00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:29.080
about our latest releases, including the

00:00:29.094 --> 00:00:30.600
Ultency Matching Engine.

00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:32.340
We have liquidity providers that

00:00:32.340 --> 00:00:34.660
want to join our ecosystem and

00:00:34.660 --> 00:00:37.360
brokers that have already tested it

00:00:37.360 --> 00:00:38.860
and started using it

00:00:38.860 --> 00:00:40.220
as their primary

00:00:40.220 --> 00:00:42.560
liquidity bridge and

00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:44.500
matching engine to their liquidity providers.

00:00:48.265 --> 00:00:49.131
My name

00:00:49.131 --> 00:00:50.187
is Marios. It's been a

00:00:50.187 --> 00:00:52.270
very busy day at the Expo today.

00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:54.520
I managed to speak with a lot of brokers and

00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:56.080
I can't wait for the second

00:00:56.080 --> 00:00:57.240
exhibition to come.

00:01:04.172 --> 00:01:07.438
How would you evaluate your history of cooperation with MetaQuotes? 

00:01:07.789 --> 00:01:09.740
Relationships started back in 2019.

00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:13.160
Ever since till today, as

00:01:13.160 --> 00:01:14.000
we all know, it's

00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:16.740
not a secret that MetaQuotes is

00:01:16.740 --> 00:01:18.640
the one setting the benchmark up

00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:20.280
and setting the trend,

00:01:20.280 --> 00:01:22.373
which we and brokers like us —

00:01:22.373 --> 00:01:24.100
we follow you. So you are

00:01:24.100 --> 00:01:25.340
the leaders of the game. 

00:01:25.639 --> 00:01:28.020
At Versus Trade, we are clients of MetaQuotes 

00:01:28.020 --> 00:01:30.060
for two years. But I've been the

00:01:30.060 --> 00:01:32.320
client of MetaQuotes in this or another way

00:01:32.320 --> 00:01:34.133
for the past 13 years.

00:01:34.133 --> 00:01:36.320
You guys are providing a very high level of

00:01:36.320 --> 00:01:38.020
support. I like that there is

00:01:38.020 --> 00:01:40.100
always somebody like yourself, which we

00:01:40.100 --> 00:01:41.971
can reach out and get our things done.

00:01:41.971 --> 00:01:43.620
You're client-oriented.

00:01:43.960 --> 00:01:46.920
The cooperation with MetaQuotes

00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:49.156
has been very, very, very strong. 

00:01:49.163 --> 00:01:50.560
For us, MetaQuotes is

00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:52.052
not just a vendor.

00:01:52.052 --> 00:01:54.080
It is a long-term technology

00:01:54.080 --> 00:01:55.846
partner. 

00:01:55.846 --> 00:01:58.660
This stability, scalability, and

00:01:58.660 --> 00:02:00.500
the trustiness — the

00:02:00.500 --> 00:02:02.080
company gives it to us

00:02:02.080 --> 00:02:04.184
and we give it to the clients.

00:02:04.184 --> 00:02:05.402
This is the best. 

00:02:05.963 --> 00:02:07.736
Which MetaQuotes additional products

00:02:07.736 --> 00:02:09.343
does your company currently use? 

00:02:09.343 --> 00:02:11.342
And how do they help your company to grow?

00:02:11.818 --> 00:02:14.932
 All products are good.

00:02:14.932 --> 00:02:16.540
And we use it depending on

00:02:16.540 --> 00:02:18.160
the needs. The new one

00:02:18.160 --> 00:02:20.000
is Ultency. This is a new

00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:22.000
one, but in general, this

00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:24.120
a liquidity solution in MetaQuotes

00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:26.680
infrastructure, which definitely has

00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:28.340
own benefits.

00:02:28.880 --> 00:02:31.060
 We didn't know that MetaQuotes

00:02:31.060 --> 00:02:32.120
 had a plugin for,

00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:33.122
let's say, automation. 

00:02:33.122 --> 00:02:34.220
You know, we had a conversation with

00:02:34.220 --> 00:02:36.240
you, we had a conversation with Theo, and

00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:38.900
we realized that MetaQuotes has

00:02:38.900 --> 00:02:40.800
their own automation plugin for

00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:42.440
bonuses,

00:02:42.440 --> 00:02:44.760
Stop Outs, swaps.

00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:46.340
 So that's one

00:02:46.340 --> 00:02:47.591
thing that really helped us 

00:02:47.591 --> 00:02:49.392
in saving cost as well.

00:02:49.392 --> 00:02:50.734
So, man, there're so many

00:02:50.734 --> 00:02:52.540
 things integrated which,

00:02:52.540 --> 00:02:54.280
you know, as we're working every

00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:56.100
month, we find out that —

00:02:56.100 --> 00:02:58.640
oh wow these things are also integrated like

00:02:58.640 --> 00:03:00.518
bonuses, swaps, and then, you know, the bridge.

00:03:01.136 --> 00:03:02.588
Items like Ultency, the

00:03:02.600 --> 00:03:04.840
MT5 gateway, and

00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:06.180
there are, you know, other

00:03:06.180 --> 00:03:08.620
items such as routing facilitation

00:03:08.620 --> 00:03:10.380
for execution — they

00:03:10.380 --> 00:03:12.060
actually allowed us to

00:03:12.060 --> 00:03:14.260
enhance our growth and gave

00:03:14.260 --> 00:03:16.680
us the greater capability to

00:03:16.680 --> 00:03:18.700
actually extend to

00:03:18.700 --> 00:03:20.020
various regions throughout the

00:03:20.020 --> 00:03:22.440
world with the availability of,

00:03:22.480 --> 00:03:24.020
you know, globally

00:03:24.495 --> 00:03:26.920
hosted access servers, for example, and

00:03:26.920 --> 00:03:29.080
so on, which are secured

00:03:29.080 --> 00:03:30.180
and promoted to

00:03:30.180 --> 00:03:32.060
us by MetaQuotes themselves, which

00:03:32.060 --> 00:03:34.520
gives us an ease of mind rather than

00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:37.398
having to always go to various vendors. 

00:03:38.030 --> 00:03:39.737
What is your opinion on how MetaTrader 5

00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:41.723
has evolved over the years? 

00:03:42.100 --> 00:03:44.120
I think it's evolved

00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:46.180
pretty much because some

00:03:46.180 --> 00:03:48.340
guys, especially maybe like clients,

00:03:48.340 --> 00:03:50.480
where they only see the front end,

00:03:50.480 --> 00:03:52.280
they might say, 'Okay the charts are

00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:54.060
the same, the color scheme is the

00:03:54.060 --> 00:03:56.080
same.' But we, as brokers, we

00:03:56.080 --> 00:03:58.280
know how many guys, I mean, how

00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:00.040
the stability increases, how many

00:04:00.040 --> 00:04:02.060
gateways are connected, how many

00:04:02.060 --> 00:04:04.180
technical stuff is done.

00:04:04.180 --> 00:04:06.120
You're making this product more and more

00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:08.700
of a great tool for us as the brokers. So,

00:04:08.700 --> 00:04:10.320
I think the evaluation is...

00:04:10.320 --> 00:04:12.280
sorry, not evaluation — evolution,

00:04:12.280 --> 00:04:14.984
evolution and evaluation — are very good. 

00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:17.860
You know, I'm gonna be honest, okay?

00:04:17.860 --> 00:04:19.432
 I'm gonna be honest. 

00:04:19.432 --> 00:04:20.370
So, we started in

00:04:20.370 --> 00:04:21.860
2021 till

00:04:21.860 --> 00:04:24.600
2023-2024 it

00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:26.440
still felt like

00:04:26.440 --> 00:04:28.200
MetaTrader 4 based on

00:04:28.200 --> 00:04:30.060
the interface. But I think in

00:04:30.060 --> 00:04:33.020
the last year and a half, the updates to

00:04:33.020 --> 00:04:34.060
the UI have

00:04:34.060 --> 00:04:36.020
been done on like, let's say, the mobile app

00:04:36.020 --> 00:04:37.450
especially... Man, it's changed like

00:04:37.450 --> 00:04:38.400
a lot of things. 

00:04:39.535 --> 00:04:43.048
How does MetaTrader 5 compare to other trading platforms

00:04:43.048 --> 00:04:45.722
 in terms of functionality performance and user experience? 

00:04:46.194 --> 00:04:46.894
 There are

00:04:46.894 --> 00:04:48.898
so many different platforms, there are

00:04:48.898 --> 00:04:50.700
so many different IT solutions, but

00:04:50.700 --> 00:04:52.280
we discussed with with

00:04:52.280 --> 00:04:54.120
our team, with our head

00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:56.200
of IT, and it were his

00:04:56.200 --> 00:04:58.040
words — he told

00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:00.180
to me that 'Believe me, only

00:05:00.180 --> 00:05:02.220
MetaQuotes are top one,

00:05:02.220 --> 00:05:04.260
only this company

00:05:04.260 --> 00:05:06.454
is the top.' 

00:05:06.454 --> 00:05:08.780
We definitely compare,

00:05:08.780 --> 00:05:10.140
but during

00:05:10.140 --> 00:05:12.060
that comparison, we

00:05:12.060 --> 00:05:14.460
came to a conclusion, and we come to that conclusion each

00:05:14.454 --> 00:05:15.666
day — that you are the best.

00:05:16.089 --> 00:05:18.140
We use all the products of

00:05:18.140 --> 00:05:20.120
the MetaQuotes, and

00:05:20.120 --> 00:05:22.000
since recently, we have the

00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:24.240
automations, we have the

00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:26.660
Ultency — the new products.

00:05:26.940 --> 00:05:28.820
And I believe that

00:05:28.820 --> 00:05:30.360
the ecosystem that

00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:32.152
you're building right now, is what

00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:34.420
we need in order to decrease the

00:05:34.420 --> 00:05:36.740
middleman in

00:05:36.740 --> 00:05:38.000
the brokerage. We need to

00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:40.200
connect it with the payments, with

00:05:40.200 --> 00:05:42.060
the bridge, with the

00:05:42.060 --> 00:05:44.380
liquidity providers. And it's the Ultency that

00:05:44.380 --> 00:05:46.280
gives us the solutions. I know some

00:05:46.280 --> 00:05:48.120
other companies that start

00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:50.700
following the same

00:05:50.700 --> 00:05:52.400
solutions that you

00:05:52.400 --> 00:05:54.020
have here. But anyway, the

00:05:54.020 --> 00:05:55.648
MetaQuotes solution is the best.

00:05:56.200 --> 00:05:58.180
 We've tested out other vendors, but

00:05:58.180 --> 00:06:00.700
we've actually found that MetaTrader 5's

00:06:00.700 --> 00:06:02.100
Access Servers seem

00:06:02.100 --> 00:06:04.080
to be one of the quickest and

00:06:04.080 --> 00:06:06.660
allowed us to expand and grow at

00:06:06.660 --> 00:06:08.520
a large scale. The

00:06:08.520 --> 00:06:10.140
dream for each and every single

00:06:10.140 --> 00:06:12.620
broker and any

00:06:12.620 --> 00:06:15.000
users or customers in

00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:16.400
this industry is

00:06:16.400 --> 00:06:18.086
to have it all in one place. 

00:06:18.790 --> 00:06:20.822
If you could improve one thing in MetaTrader 5, 

00:06:20.822 --> 00:06:21.987
what would it be?

00:06:22.384 --> 00:06:23.134
Whichever mind


00:06:23.140 --> 00:06:24.460
is there in

00:06:24.460 --> 00:06:26.280
the company which is

00:06:26.280 --> 00:06:29.000
like, you know, looking for innovation, man —

00:06:28.994 --> 00:06:31.008
you guys got everything covered. 

00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:34.980
The only thing that was missing was the bridge.

00:06:34.980 --> 00:06:36.408
And it's there as well.

00:06:36.408 --> 00:06:38.120
But I would really want,

00:06:38.120 --> 00:06:40.220
in future, I would really want

00:06:40.220 --> 00:06:41.940
to see how the

00:06:41.940 --> 00:06:44.060
UI becomes more

00:06:44.060 --> 00:06:46.020
modern. But then

00:06:46.020 --> 00:06:48.260
again, that's like 

00:06:48.260 --> 00:06:50.280
the image of MetaQuotes

00:06:50.280 --> 00:06:52.380
itself, like it's known for

00:06:52.386 --> 00:06:53.558
the UI it has now. 

00:06:54.152 --> 00:06:56.640
Maybe, because MT5

00:06:56.640 --> 00:06:58.720
has everything, and it's

00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:01.120
different for the beginners to

00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:02.400
understand the platform,

00:07:02.400 --> 00:07:03.534
the trading

00:07:03.768 --> 00:07:06.180
environment a lot.

00:07:06.180 --> 00:07:07.740
So maybe, creating

00:07:07.740 --> 00:07:10.080
some model or

00:07:10.080 --> 00:07:12.120
a different version. Let's say,

00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:14.120
for example, this is a platform for

00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:16.000
the beginners and this is for

00:07:16.006 --> 00:07:16.706
professionals. 

00:07:17.420 --> 00:07:18.594
What new features or products 

00:07:18.594 --> 00:07:20.246
would you like MetaQuotes to develop?

00:07:20.580 --> 00:07:22.700
Always MetaQuotes do

00:07:22.700 --> 00:07:24.180
their best and they are up

00:07:24.180 --> 00:07:26.280
to the level. And I can't say

00:07:26.280 --> 00:07:28.240
that you should improve but I would also

00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:30.040
be looking forward to see what you do

00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:32.580
in the AI space, the analytics side

00:07:32.580 --> 00:07:34.060
of it. And

00:07:34.060 --> 00:07:36.560
right now the trend is the analytics for

00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:38.060
the traders and the

00:07:38.060 --> 00:07:39.096
brokers.

00:07:39.684 --> 00:07:42.560
 If one day MetaQuotes

00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:44.280
would decide to

00:07:44.280 --> 00:07:46.160
have its own member area

00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.040
with its own

00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:50.780
CRM, I believe this

00:07:50.780 --> 00:07:51.960
would be just

00:07:51.960 --> 00:07:54.160
like a

00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:55.006
rocket for you. 

00:07:55.894 --> 00:07:57.081
Well there are a few items 

00:07:57.081 --> 00:07:58.080
that would come

00:07:58.080 --> 00:08:00.240
to mind, knowing there are

00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:02.160
a lot of third parties out there. But I

00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:04.080
believe, you know, maybe the enhancement of

00:08:04.080 --> 00:08:06.140
the copy trading facilitation which is

00:08:06.140 --> 00:08:08.100
available with MetaTrader 5 and

00:08:08.100 --> 00:08:10.260
MetaTrader 4, maybe if there was

00:08:10.260 --> 00:08:12.540
some enhancement to it to offer more

00:08:12.540 --> 00:08:14.080
flexibility, that would be much

00:08:14.074 --> 00:08:16.064
appreciated by many brokers, I believe. 

00:08:16.484 --> 00:08:17.960
CRM is very very important,

00:08:17.960 --> 00:08:20.180
because

00:08:20.180 --> 00:08:22.080
what I see in the new platforms

00:08:22.080 --> 00:08:24.400
now, in the MT5,

00:08:24.400 --> 00:08:26.880
you have excellent CRM

00:08:26.880 --> 00:08:28.180
systems, but

00:08:28.180 --> 00:08:30.060
only in the platform. So maybe

00:08:30.060 --> 00:08:32.340
you're thinking to make it one

00:08:32.340 --> 00:08:34.860
very big solution for

00:08:34.860 --> 00:08:36.120
the brokers

00:08:36.120 --> 00:08:38.780
according to the regulations.

00:08:38.780 --> 00:08:40.040
So, it's

00:08:40.040 --> 00:08:41.880
a huge, it's a huge demand

00:08:41.880 --> 00:08:42.560
for this.

00:08:51.308 --> 00:08:52.974
It seems the market is starting to

00:08:52.974 --> 00:08:54.340
understand what a great

00:08:54.340 --> 00:08:56.540
low-latency, high-performance solution it

00:08:56.540 --> 00:08:58.160
is for the brokers. 

00:08:58.160 --> 00:08:59.884
And we're very excited with the 

00:08:59.884 --> 00:09:02.058
direction Ultency is going in and we see that 

00:09:02.040 --> 00:09:04.280
with the great feedback we're receiving from

00:09:04.280 --> 00:09:05.700
business associates.

00:09:06.140 --> 00:09:08.140
It was a successful day. We

00:09:08.140 --> 00:09:10.440
managed to promote our additional

00:09:10.440 --> 00:09:12.380
products of MetaTrader 5

00:09:12.380 --> 00:09:14.300
and we cannot wait to

00:09:14.300 --> 00:09:16.180
see you all next year at

00:09:16.180 --> 00:09:18.060
the IFX Expo Limassol.
