On the 1st of August 2014, Metaquotes are releasing an update to Metatrader 4. As part of this update, Client Terminals older than Build 600 will no longer be supported.

If you are using a Client Terminal that is older than Build 600, you must update your Metatrader 4 Client Terminal to the latest build, or the platform will not connect to the trading servers.

What Metatrader Client Terminal am I using?
To see what Build of Metatrader you are using, please follow these instructions:

1. Open Metatrader 4
2. Select Help > About
3. An About Box will popup, on the bottom left you should see:

---

Metatrader - Pepperstone
Version: 4.00 Build XXX < This is your current build

What if my Build Number is HIGHER than 600
If your Metatrader 4 Build is 600 or higher, then no action is required.

What if my Build Number is LOWER than 600
If your Metatrader 4 Build is lower than 600, then you need to update your trading platform. You can update your trading platform by either:

• Downloading the latest version of MT4 from the Pepperstone website
• Opening the platform as the Administrator

IMPORTANT: As part of the new update, experts and indicators are installed into a new directory. We highly recommend that you click the following link in order to see how to install these files are now installed.

FXPRIMUS is upgrading their Data Centers that allow you to connect to the MetaTrader4 (MT4) platform.

Why is FXPRIMUS upgrading its Data Centers?

Their previous Data Centers were up to the specifications required by MetaQuotes. However, they have decided to upgrade to newer Data Centers that exceed MetaQuotes' minimum specifications to help improve your overall connectivity to their servers.

What do I need to do to ensure I have a smooth transition connecting to the new Data Centers?

The new Data Centers are currently enabled on their MT4 servers. They will be disabling & removing the "old" Data Centers on the weekend of June 7, 2014. In order to ensure that you can connect to your MT4 platform without issue after June 7, 2014, simply make sure to login to your MT4 trading platform any time this week while the market is open.

Alternatively, you may force a temporary connection directly to the FXPRIMUS Data Centers by manually inputting the IP of the Data Center that corresponds to your account in the "Server" field of your MT4 platform. To do this, open your MT4 platform, select File > Login > enter your MT4 Login, Password and the IP from the list below. Finally click "Login" to complete the process. Once connected, your platform will update itself with the new Data Center access points. After one successful connection, you may resume selecting the default server options in the MT4 platform (ie: FXPRIMUS-Live, FXPRIMUS-Live-3, etc.) when logging into your account.

Pepperstone is proud to announce the addition of the USDCNH currency pair.

This pair provides Pepperstone traders with the ability to access new exposure to China's currency, the Renminbi (RMB). Traded off-shore through Hong Kong as USDCNH, the USDCNH market has grown in investor interest and volatility in recent years since the loosening of trading limits imposed on China's currency market.

With China's central bank now allowing a daily 2% fluctuation in Renminbi movement, and with growing perception that Chinese economic growth is slowing, there is strong potential for further exchange-rate reforms in coming years that may reveal further trading opportunities in the USDCNH market.
