Our New Milestone: Offering of Securities and Equities with Emphasis on MetaTrader 5
This expansion is a truly important milestone for Admiral Markets Group, which started as a Forex company more than 15 years ago, then evolved into a successful CFD provider, and now transforms into a top-tier, multi-asset brokerage firm that operates on derivative and cash markets.
Moreover, today we also take a great leap forward in terms of promotion of the world's most advanced trading platform – MetaTrader 5, among the trading community and classic investors, with the former getting access to investment opportunities and the latter obtaining an incredibly powerful trading tool. Without the capabilities of MetaTrader 5, which is as different from MetaTrader 4 as the modern electric car is from the good old diesel, it would not be possible to connect the trading and investing worlds and provide such a diverse offering.
We encourage all clients with MetaTrader 4 accounts to learn more about MetaTrader 5 and consider switching to Trade.MT5 and/or Invest.MT5 accounts, as MetaTrader 4 has reached its technical limits with the current Trade.MT4 offering. At the same time, MetaTrader 5 provides nearly unlimited space for further development, and we'll continue to add more markets and supplementary services to the MetaTrader 5 accounts.
Please note that the commission and daily financing rates specified above will be applied to the previously available stocks and stock CFDs on MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 accounts starting from the session opening on Tuesday, 22 May, 2018.
If you are new to trading CFDs on equities and securities on margin, please be advised to familiarise yourself with the Key Information Documents for stock CFDs and ETF CFDs before you start trading these products.
Kind Regards,
Admiral Markets
