Welcome to our blog

Yes, we, Exness Trading, are launching our own blog, but before we start, you might have quite reasonable questions of who we are, what we work on, and most importantly, what you will benefit from us.

This will take too much of Medium space and of your personal time to answer all these, albeit simple, questions here, so first of all let us define a person who might be interested in our products and services. He or she has an entrepreneur mindset, they are attracted by Forex and other markets, they might have heard of Exness or know a lot about this company, and they definitely want to start or already run their own brokerage business. If you recognize yourself (great!), learn more about us or keep reading; if you are not, that’s not bad too - you have even more options: learn more about us, keep reading, or find more interesting articles, which Medium is rich in.

Information provided in the blog will be divided into several categories, each of which is devoted to a particular topic. The post you are currently reading belongs to the New Features category. Here you will find useful technical information on recent updates you can take advantage of to make the product your traders use more complex and multi-functional and thus more attractive. Besides the descriptions of substantial improvements, these updates may include changes in the versions of existing services, tools, and utilities, deployments, minor modifications, bug fixes (yes, it happens), and more.

Uff…, thank you for reaching this, already the fourth, paragraph - the introduction is almost over and, as it was promised above, there is only useful and technical information ahead. So, follow me, reader: scroll down!

By the way, if you happen to find the subsequent descriptions unclear, confusing, or out of context, it is ok, since these are new additions to what is already available to our prospects and clients in the official documentation they received. Please contact us to have a consultation on what we can do for you and get a set of up-to-date documents to find our how we can do it.

Non-trading API: new Async method

The new “GET /api/async/{operation_id}/status/” method returns the status of a particular operation associated with an existing Async method (GET, POST, or PATCH). This allows finding out the cause of an issue that may occur when the Async method is executed.

The new method uses only one path parameter of operation_id (char), which is returned by the other Async methods as the operation identifier. And its successful response contains the following parameters.

“flow_status” (char): the current status of operation: “PENDING” or “PROCESSED”

“result_status_code” (integer): the result status code: 0 for “PENDING”; 200 or any other unsuccessful response code for “PROCESSED”

“result_data” (response body): the content of response body that would have been returned if the respective non-asynchronous method had been used.

Customer portal on MT server for UK

If you, being an Exness Trading B2B client registered in the UK, need liquidity for your business, you can now open an appropriate trading account in MetaTrader 5 (MT5). We will create and top up this account for you on request, and after that you will be able to serve almost any “fat” B2C customer: provide them with desired leverage, open positions, etc.
