   after the EA boom they are scared of the EA bust, too many bad systems for sale over the years have put people off . Over-hyped and overmarketed Ea’s will not be missed.
   Now all good strategies are on share and mirror platforms, Mt losing the cake share.
   Every dog has its day.

   Hackers will always find a way to hack.
   checkout Apple and Jailbreak community.
   the only way to fight it is to join it.
   MT should allow connect to their server with license fee model and gain:
   1. dramatic expansion of their solution over the community
   2. more revenues

   they are ignorant and not listen but eventually will understand that hard way.

   Unlike some other mobile trading tools and platforms, Forex On The Go’s technology does not utilize any network protocol hacks to provide client trading through MetaTrader 4.

   To stop the use of network protocol hacks MetaQuotes has released an updated client terminal and announced that starting June 1st, 2012 builds lower than 416 will not be supported. The Forex On The Go technology has already been verified to be compatible with the latest build, and because it uses only standard methods, it will continue to function as normal.

   In 2009 Forex On The Go developed the first Forex trading platform for the iPhone. Currently “Forex On The Go Lite” is the most popular Forex application available in the iTunes App Store. We are committed to offering highly secure and reliable mobile trading platforms for the iPhone, Android and Blackberry, and have been a trusted provider of our white labels platforms to leading brokers around the world.

   Forex On The Go is a US based company and strictly regulated by the NFA. Our servers are housed at secure facilities with SAS70 security certifications and all trading activities are performed over encrypted SSL connections. Trade commands are handled digitally and automatically, without any human interaction from us, and we do not store any user login credentials.

   We applaud MetaQuotes Software Corp on taking action to close security holes in its network protocols, and are proud to be a provider of trading tools which promote the usage of the MT4 platform.

   you need to separate the two things: whatever can be done with metatrader can be done with all other platforms as well, in this sense they are no different from any other. it’s up to the operator (broker) to abuse what’s available.
