Spotware has launched cTrader 5.0, a major update now available to all cTrader brokers and prop firms. This version includes upgrades across Windows, Web, and Mobile platforms, focusing on enhanced UI personalization and advanced algo trading capabilities.
cBots Accessible Across Devices
The new Algo app, formerly cTrader Automate, simplifies the export, sharing, and execution of algorithms. With the introduction of cTrader Cloud, algorithms can now be accessed and used across devices, promoting flexibility.
Traders can launch cBots from any platform, including mobile, without relying on local computing power, and this service is free of charge. Additionally, algorithm files can be exported securely and are mobile-friendly.
Meanwhile, Spotware has released cTrader Desktop 5.0.22, introducing the "Shared Access" feature for branded cTrader apps, as reported by Finance Magnates.
This allows users to grant access to their trading accounts, including money managers, for more efficient account management. Previously available only on the web, the feature is now also accessible on the desktop version.
New Tools for Brokers
The cTrader Algo API has been improved to give algo developers more control, allowing algorithms to manage cBots and use indicators for trading. The update also adds plugins, which enable users to integrate third-party services and customize the platform’s UI, providing more flexibility, especially for trading businesses.
For introducing brokers, the cTrader 5.0 update offers new tools to help attract and manage clients. The Invite toolset allows brokers to share cBots and algorithms easily, and a new “Multiple Strategies” widget on cTrader Web supports embedding strategies on websites.
Other updates include improvements in UI/UX, such as enhanced indicator placement options on cTrader Mobile and real-time viewing of positions and orders on cTrader Web.
Spotware has also emphasized its focus on providing a mobile-first approach, with cTrader Cloud allowing traders to manage and launch bots directly from mobile apps, enhancing the accessibility and mobility of algo trading.
