The Sirix HTML5 platform allows brokers to provide clients with access to their MetaTrader 4 accounts with different mobile and PC operating systems using the same trading interface. As MetaQuotes currently doesn't offer a web based interface for MetaTrader 4, brokers have to partner with third party developers such as Leverate, Panda TS and TradeSpot FX. Australian broker, Pepperstone, was the first to adopt Leverate’s HTML5 platform for the market in August 2013.

“We’re excited about partnering with a major player in the Australian financial services industry,” said in the announcement by Leverate VP of Marketing, Nicc Lewis. “IC Markets is one of the fastest growing Forex brokers in the world, and they have an excellent reputation for customer service. By giving their clients a Forex trading platform that is easy to master, and which comes loaded with useful features such as one-click trading, IC Markets can continue to draw in clients interested in a positive trading experience."

Andrew Budzinski, IC Markets Managing Director, commented: “Leverate is truly focused on how brokers can stay successful. The Sirix platform is well-designed and comes with the features our traders demand. And being able to count on round-the-clock service is a big plus!”
