Panda TS Releases Platform for Integrating Proprietary Trading Systems with MetaTrader 4

Panda TS, a global leader in FX technology, today announced the launch of Panda Sync Server, a product which enables FX brokers to integrate and synchronize MetaTrader 4 with their existing proprietary systems. This eliminates the need to operate two trading environments, reducing cost and complexity.

Today’s retail FX world is becoming increasingly competitive, and brokers are adding more services to attract new customers. One such service is the popular MetaTrader 4 (MT4). Brokers are adding MT4, or other third-party platforms, alongside their proprietary trading platform—but then find that they are forced to operate two or more separate trading environments. This adds overhead, cost and complexity, and scatters valuable customer data across multiple separate information systems.

Panda Sync Server solves the problem by offering multi-way synchronization between MT4, other third-party trading platforms, and a broker’s proprietary trading system. Panda Sync Server does not add one more central system—it simply pushes MT4 data to the existing proprietary systems. Brokers can integrate MT4, or other third-party platforms, and deliver immediate value to traders, without affecting their business.

Panda Sync Server is most suitable for top-tier FX brokers, which already offer MT4 as an additional trading platform, or are considering adding it. Because these brokers manage a large volume of customers and transactions, maintaining two separate trading platforms becomes a major challenge. With Panda Sync Server, large brokers can add MT4 to their service offering without sacrificing scalability and agility.

“We have recently implemented Sync Server at a top-ten FX broker, and I was very pleased with the results” said Sam Gutman, CEO of Panda TS. “Our dedicated integration team was able to complete the project in only a month, and our client was immediately able to offer MT4 services to traders and second-tier brokers. In parallel, the client substantially reduced operating costs and complexity, by managing only one trading environment, instead of two.”

MT4 marks the newest addition to GFT’s award-winning trading software offerings

GFT, a worldwide leader in online currency trading, announced today that it has added MetaTrader 4 (MT4), an online automated trading application, to its suite of award-winning DealBook® trading software offerings.

GFT customers have always enjoyed the benefits of the DealBook® suite of trading software and now have an additional option for online trading, technical analysis, and now automated trading with the MT4 platform. Automated trading has captured the interest of a growing number of traders in recent years and combining that functionality with the execution, pricing, and service of GFT creates opportunities for GFT customers with another powerful approach to the FX trading markets.

“Our goal has always been to give our customers the tools that they need to trade quickly, efficiently and securely,” said Gary Tilkin, president and CEO of GFT. “Our customers asked us to integrate an automated trading solution so they could leverage those tools and strategies while still enjoying the GFT benefits of great execution, service, security, and competitive spreads. We are pleased to offer this new option and recognize the importance of this type of tool among traders today. I believe that traders who have used MT4 with other brokers will enjoy a real difference trading with GFT. In addition to this automated platform, GFT will offer a number of new products and platforms to our customers in markets around the world over the coming weeks and months.”

GFT has been voted top FX broker over the years by numerous organizations, including Smart Investor, The Bull and Shares Magazine. That’s because traders who voted know that GFT is a dealer that provides competitive pricing, spreads as low as 0.8 and an award-winning software platform. And now, GFT offers auto-trading tools with MetaTrader 4.
