It’s been 3 weeks since the launch of the public beta, and we are pleased to announce the first update to the software, based on your feedback. The initial build was 150, the latest update is build 151.

We want to thank everyone for trying out the beta version of FX Synergy 1.5 and giving us your valuable feedback. Overall the public beta has been a huge success, and using your feedback we identified a few areas that required some additional tweaking. The following items have been improved/added in the latest build:

– Full Windows 8 Support. Some versions of Windows 8 caused issues with activation, this has been fixed.
– Automatic Reconnection. In some cases reconnection on connection failure didn’t work as expected, this has been optimized.

– Auto-Detect Suffix. Some brokers with multiple suffixes caused this feature to sometimes detect the wrong suffix, this has been fixed.
– Full Spread Betting Support. Residents of the UK & Ireland can use MT4 for spread betting. While this has been supported previously, it caused issues with incorrect tickvalue with some brokers. We have added Spread Betting as a symbol type as well as an advanced setting for tickvalue.

To download the latest build, simply use the download link in the original post announcing the beta. Please note that you will be asked to un-install the previous version, this is normal, your settings will be saved.
