Scope Work for MetaTrader 5 Testing

1. The platform testing will take approximately 5-6 months.
2. This will be a stage-by-stage testing. New features will be added during each stage. During the first testing stage that starts today, the client terminal will work with Forex only. Later on we will add Futures, equities and options.
3. The current terminal version comes in without a strategy tester. It will be included later.
4. Commencing November 2009, the testing of back-office components of the platform will be open to brokerage companies.

We are committed to delivering a truly stable, high-quality product, that's why the testing is evolving into a multi-stage process. We just wish to ensure the highest quality in every stage of the process before we release the platform to our clients.
