Spotware’s CEO, Ilia Iarovitcyn, said: “cTrader for Mac is one of the most anticipated milestones that we are delighted to have achieved. An early Christmas present for all Apple aficionados, if you will!”

“After continuous hard work, this is a one-of-a-kind application for Mac that offers the perfect experience of manual, copy and automatic trading, and even comes with the familiar shortcuts for Mac users, which make it even more convenient. We hope our users make the most of the application, capitalising on opportunities and maximising their investment potential.”

cTrader Emerges as Key Alternative Post-MetaTrader Removal

Following the unexpected removal of MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 trading apps from the Apple App Store, the retail contracts for difference (CFD) industry speculated on the implications. A Finance Magnates survey revealed that cTrader by Spotware is emerging as a significant alternative. With over 350 participants, 53% favored cTrader, outpacing competitors like MatchTrader (27%), Leverate (12%), and XOpenHub (8%).

Unlike MetaQuotes-owned products, cTrader maintains continuous availability on the App Store. Finance Magnates Intelligence data showed that MetaTrader 4 and 5 dominated the CFD market with 83.8%, and mobile trading volumes surpassed desktop volumes (56% vs. 44%). Spotware's cTrader platform, known for its user-friendly yet advanced features, offers a comprehensive mobile app in 22 languages, featuring smooth charting and access to 50 indicators.

The platform aims to strike a balance between ease of use and advanced functionalities, catering to both experienced and novice traders, solidifying its position as a preferred alternative in the financial landscape.
