- Now, Win Prize Money Worth $80,000 Through Trading Robots!

MetaQuotes Software Corp., a world leader in the retails Forex software
market, today launched the Automated Trading Championship 2011
(championship.mql5.com/2011/en), an annual competition of trading
robots under which, anyone can register as a participant and compete for the
prize money of $80,000.

Registration for participation is open from June 1 to September 23, 2011,
and is free of charge. The Championship will start on the 3rd of October and
will end on the 23rd of December.

Sponsored by MIG Bank (www.migbank.com/), Go Markets Pty Ltd
(www.gomarketsaus.com/), Vantage FX (www.vantagefx.com/) and
Forex-TSD (www.forex-tsd.com/), the Automated Trading Championship
2011 is developed in the MQL5 language for programming trading strategies
(www.mql5.com/). The main goal of the Championship is to popularize
automated trading. The competition allows solving another important task -
accumulation of unique information about the most significant achievements in
the field of trading robots creation, because the Automated Trading
Championship provides an unprecedented opportunity for the best professionals
to test their theories in practice.

From year to year, struggling for the prize of $80,000, hundreds of users
from all over the world submit their MQL-developments for the Championship.
However, this year's Championship will be special. This will be the world's
first competition of trading robots able to trade not only on the Forex, but
also in the stock market. Moreover, the extended functionality of the
MetaTrader 5 (www.metatrader5.com/) client terminal and the release of
the MQL5 Wizard (www.metatrader5.com/en/automated-trading/mql5wizard)
will entail a significant increase of the number of Participants.

"Over 300 Expert Advisors participated in the previous Championship,"
Stanislav Starikov, the Championship Jury member, said.

"This year the number will increase substantially - we expect to receive
several thousands of applications for participation. The reason for this
surge lies in the recently released MQL5 Wizard, using which any trader
without programming skills can easily create a trading robot. Though, this
would not guarantee a victory in the Championship, of course," Starikov said.
