Martin Slaney, Director of Product Development at GFT Markets, commented:

"The key benefit ofMT4  is that clients can develop or select from a predefined list of automated trading strategies. This has so far been limited to currency pairs, but feedback has shown universal demand for it to be extended to other asset classes too."
