Dissatisfied with cTrader as it is so hard to trade in iOS, Android...
plain disappointment for cTrader,
no native iOS app.
I am as well trying to find a broker that offers cTrader. Order execution compared to MT4 seems to be much much better, and Level 2 pricing is the best feature. I don't know exactly which broker is offering the best, though as it is ECN platform spreads are much lower but commission is charged. FXPro is charging way too much, 65 units of base currency per million, what they told me. I have another broker called Super Trading Online, and they are offering cTrader platform as well. Commission they charge is much less than FXPro - 25 units base currency per 1 million.
Has anyone traded at all with this broker before? I am just curious to know before deciding to open an account with them?

Thanks openyoureyes. You should let ctrader(spotware) know this by sending them feedback using the feedback tab on the platform. They will let you know if it is under progress. They should make one for ios.

lol as you should actually read yourself and "openyoureyes" according to their so-called depth of market there is someone pumping 89.9 Million of offers and also pumping 89.9 Million at the same time in bids? If you tell me a bank is trying fiddle 89 M of bids/offer within 10 pip range that's just a pure joke. Don't believe into this depth of market thing, even the EBS fails to state entire how much has been executed in terms of volume, let alone a broker.

To be very frank to everyone, for those who expect to trade a EBS service so called raw spreads (Which they claim ECN to be) with a 17.00 USD commission or 7.84 USD commission from whatever other broker is unrealistic. I believe some of the ideas of the people have here are also quite wrong. No matter what, banks are also market makers, yes damn well, they quote the price, and they speculate hugely 10-100M with prop traders hedging your trades too if your trades goes to the bank. It's clear guys, EBS says it, it's an auctioning model with market making FX banks. Speaking of market making, I have no fear of a broker taking a trade against me (Although I have a fear if the broker does glitches and bugs to steal money from you unfairly with falsified information), but for brokers trading against you, frankly so what? it's the FX market, if you are right, you cannot lose as the market flows in one or another direction, speaking of trading 100k with these so called "ECN" platforms, good luck, you're being traded against by a bank/hedge fund compared to a broker, it's much worse and on a much bigger scale than you would imagine. Just my two cents as everything needs to hedge their risks, and banks would do it much more fully and in a much more aggressive scale, direct market access for retail traders trading 0.01 lots is just irrational. Market's an auction, that's how prices are generated, quoted by market making banks, wonder how the quotes and moves come? It's from the difference of how FX prop traders quote prices every second from different banking institutions in the world.

That doesn't really make sense. Even if I concede the doom and gloom scenario of being traded against by a bank/hedge fund, ECN's are still the better option. If banks/hedge funds are trading against you on the open market, they are also trading against your MM broker, which will pass the cost onto you. So whichever way you look at it, the ECN is still better. Of course its not for everybody and not for every trading style.

What would you recommend then and im looking at 25-35k deposit, preferably through cc's as the security layer of funds being held at visa/mastercard merchant bank account is necessary and reassuring than anything. Problem is im a canadian, and my hopes were for the lmax exchange but unfortunately they won't take cdns. Secondly, this seems weird to most but they must offer a CAD base account. Currently looking into london exchange capital group and ig.com but have yet to hear anything back, and im staying away as much as possible from MM'ers who have less than 5k deposit requirements

I have never met a trader whose results would have been better if he paid less commission. Give me DMA any day of the week and I'm happy to pay for it. I treat my broker like a partner and get treated likewise.
Hi, any recent opinions about FxPro cTader ECN please ? I see they've reduced their commission from 6.5$ to 4.5$ per lot.
But otherwise are they any good? (platform reliability, execution, withdrawal...)
It converts metatrader mt4 mq4 expert advisers and indicator mq4 files to Calgo format. To which you copy the code from mt4 to Calgo format. Then copy the code direct into Calgo software and compile robots or indicators.
As a heads up they can currently convert around 82% of codes, so not all mq4 files will convert.
Also that site is currently free and instant conversion. Great resource!

I am trading with fxpro cTrader ECN. Execution is very good. No requotes. Withdrawal for e-wallets like Neteller is done within MINUTES after requests.
