Traders can now use MetaTrader 5 (MT5), the professional and advanced trading platform, to trade shares and cryptocurrency contracts for difference (CFD) on Radex Markets.
Radex, which was launched last year by Go Markets International, announced the addition of MT5 to its platform offerings on Tuesday.
In a statement shared with Finance Magnates, Radex said its customers can now trade over 100 US and Australian shares and CFD products as well as over twenty of the most popular crypto CFDs using MT5.
Additionally, the advanced platform is available for use on both desktop and mobile devices.
The development comes four months after Radex entered into a partnership with Trading Central to enrich the overall user experience of its clients and traders.
Henry Huang, the Marketing and Business Development Director of Radex Markets told Finance Magnates via email that “the new trading products and platform addition has taken Radex to the next level.”
Huang added that the development will enable their users to access more products and enhance their trading experiences.
“Shares listed on NASDAQ, the New York Stock Exchange and the Australian Securities Exchange are now available in CFD form, making long or short shares possible for users.
“On top of that, the world's most popular cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple are tradable on the Radex Markets platforms,” Huang explained.
