cTrader has established itself as one of the most powerful and transparent trading platforms available to FX and CFD brokers today. Known for its advanced order types, superior charting capabilities, and exceptional client-facing experience, cTrader demands expert configuration and ongoing management to deliver its full potential.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between cTrader and cBroker?

cTrader is the trading platform that your clients use to place trades. cBroker is the back-end administration system that brokers use to configure and manage the platform – including groups, symbols, accounts, and execution rules. Our services focus on the cBroker environment, which is where all the critical broker-side configuration takes place.

Can you manage our cTrader platform alongside our MetaTrader setup?

Yes. Many of our clients run both cTrader and MetaTrader simultaneously. We provide unified management across both platforms through our MetaTrader Services and cTrader Services, giving you a single point of contact for all your trading infrastructure.

How long does a cTrader initial setup take?

A standard initial setup typically takes one to two weeks depending on the complexity of your instrument offering, account structure, and liquidity provider integrations. We work to your timeline and ensure thorough testing before going live.

Can you take over management of our existing cTrader platform?

Absolutely. We begin with a full review of your existing setup to identify any issues or areas for improvement, then transition seamlessly into ongoing management. Our Full Revision and Optimisation service is the ideal starting point for brokers with an existing cTrader platform.

Do you provide risk management for cTrader brokers?

Yes. Our Risk Management service is fully compatible with cTrader and covers exposure monitoring, toxic flow detection, and risk parameter optimisation for cBroker environments.
