TrioMarkets, a brokerage operating across multiple regions for over a decade, is expanding its infrastructure capabilities through MetaTrader 5, the trading platform developed by MetaQuotes. Raphael Benjamin Ghrenassia, General Manager of TrioMarkets’ Cyprus operations and company owner, discussed the transition from MetaTrader 4 and the strategic benefits of the newer platform during an interview published on 8 September 2026.

  • Platform Migration: Transition from MetaTrader 4 to MetaTrader 5
  • Key Capability: Scalable infrastructure through additional trading servers and access points
  • Primary Focus Areas: Algorithmic trading, low latency execution, competitive spreads
  • Emerging Technology: AI Assistant for trading application development without extensive MQL5 programming knowledge

The migration to MetaTrader 5 has delivered tangible operational advantages for the Cyprus-based brokerage. The platform enables infrastructure expansion by adding trading servers and access points to existing clusters without requiring migration to an alternative technology stack. Ghrenassia emphasized that MetaQuotes continues developing new capabilities for both brokers and their end users, supporting TrioMarkets’ growth trajectory.

TrioMarkets is observing rising demand from clients utilizing algorithmic trading robots, which require fast execution speeds, minimal latency, and tight bid-ask spreads. In response, the company is evaluating Ultency, a latency optimization tool, for potential integration into its operations. Ghrenassia highlighted the new AI capabilities embedded in MetaTrader 5, noting that the built-in AI Assistant democratizes algorithmic trading by enabling users to develop trading applications without deep programming expertise in MQL5 or related languages.

The expansion underscores a broader industry shift toward algorithmic trading strategies and demonstrates how brokers must continuously enhance both technology infrastructure and execution conditions to remain competitive. TrioMarkets’ exploration of advanced tools reflects the evolving expectations of modern trading clients and the platform’s role in supporting broker scalability across expanding operations.
