LeapRate Exclusive… LeapRate has learned that financial technology provider Spotware Systems has started rolling out the new cTrader version 3.0 to brokers.
cTrader 3.0 has been a long-awaited major upgrade of the popular trading platform. Spotware indicated that this marks an important milestone for cTrader, since it is a merger of two separate applications, cTrader and cAlgo. cTrader and cAlgo have now become modules of cTrader 3.0 and have been renamed to cTrader Trade and cTrader Automate.
The new merged application is also laying the ground for incorporating cTrader Copy, the planned successor of cMirror service, into cTrader. Eventually, traders will be able to perform manual trading, copy trading, mirror trading and trading performance analysis in a single application.
Beyond merging cTrader and cAlgo, many more new features are apparently included in this upgrade like a wider range of predefined tick charts, the brand new cTrader Analyze application for analyzing trading performance, many usability changes as well as an enhanced cAlgo.API. cAlgo.API enhancements include support for Stop Limit orders, trailing stop losses, fractional volumes and Stop trigger methods. More details on those features are already described in the company’s What’s New post:
Panagiotis Charalampous, Head of Community Management at Spotware, stated to us:
By releasing cTrader 3.0, we reached a major milestone. A unified trading application that would provide a seamless trading experience alongside the entire spectrum of our users, these being manual traders, algorithmic traders, strategy providers and strategy followers, was something that we were working on tirelessly during the last year. Finally, by releasing cTrader 3.0, we managed to share part of this work with our traders and brokers, with more exciting features being on the way and to be delivered later this year.
