cTrader prop firms: common questions

What is cTrader?

A trading platform built by Spotware, available on desktop, web and mobile, known for depth-of-market views and transparent order execution details. Automation runs through cTrader's own algo framework in C#, not MQL.

Can I use my MetaTrader expert advisors on cTrader?

No. MetaTrader EAs are MQL programs and cTrader does not run them; cTrader bots are written in C#. If you rely on a specific EA, choose a firm and platform that supports it, and check the firm's own automation rules as well.

Is cTrader a good platform for a prop challenge?

It suits traders who want detailed order and position information and a modern interface. Whether you pass depends on the firm's rules - drawdown type, daily loss limit, consistency rules - which are listed for every challenge here.
