Why can't we set up a stop loss price and take profit price when we enter a pending order ?! We can only set up stop loss or take profit in pips for a pending order...Isn't that strange ?
Good point my friend. I hope that their team looks at our feedback and suggestions.

Can you guys please think about allowing us to zoom in and out of our charts using our mouse scroll wheel like in TradingView? Also, another must feature is the ability to lock drawings in place so that we don't accidentally keep moving them.

I think that it would be a really good idea if you guys had a page where you list things you are currently working on in upcoming updates. Thanks a lot! Much love for CTrader.

Thanks for keeping this thread alive, although it seems we are just speaking to ourselves !

Another annoying thing is when price is when the price is around the lower right corner, when we use the Market Snapshot cursor, the price data that pop up override the chart ! So, there is no way to pinpoint the bar that we want the data from.
Don't give up on your dreams. Keep sleeping.

Is there any way to calculate the balance, when partially closing 'multiple deals' that had gradually scaled up ?
Or do we have to manually jot down equations to each position and volume for each deal.
But then, where do we monitor which deal are to be closed as we execute 'partially close'.

I switched back to MT4 until CTrader gets fixed. I hope that something good will come out of it, but for now, the mobile app is complete and utter garbage.

{quote} not very likely to happen .. due the framework it's build on is M$ only ... but yes +1 from me for a mac version ! Btw since the update 1 day ago, the order screen does default to 1 Lot size .. (before it remebered the previous size)
Lets show Spotware that they cannot keep ignoring us!

Hello Artcool. This is going to be in our next version of cTrader Web. It will also be in cTrader for Windows soon. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

These are both good ideas and will certainly be seriously considered for the future.

A portal where we communicate what features that we have committed to and are in progress is a project we are working on. For now we would like to give you a little idea.

1. Market On Open Orders
2. One Cancels the Other Orders
3. Stop Limit Orders
4. Time of The Day Orders
5. Advanced QuickTrade Settings

After this we will announce what charting updates we will deliver.

Please keep the ideas coming!

I've a few ideas....

An order is triggered if market touches a trendline you set on your chart?

A buy limit order is filled when the bid price touches it (instead of the ask price)?

This is a really nice idea. We have had suggestions to have this for Stop Losses, which we are researching, if and when we go ahead we will share the functionality with other order types too.[/quote]

We already have this feature available for Stop Orders. Soon it will be introduced to Limit Orders (including Stop Loss).

Thanks!

@cTrader when the customizeable tick-charts are comming ?

oh and the most anoying thing of them all is prioritizing drawings !!!
try to ajust a fibbo extention on a live charts where open trades or the current price is ... this is just a impossible thing to do as the price and deal lines are higher prioritized, you have to move the part completly in a clean zone and re put them all ... this is very very anoying .. especially if you not really have time to do this (like if plan a trade 0.3 pip away)

anyway besides that, cTrader is highly addictive !!! great piece of software.

We have a feature just like that already in cTrader Web and it will soon be available in cTrader for Windows. It is configurable so that with one click you can close all BUY + LOSING + EUR USD + USD JPY in a single click. The settings can easily be configured with a tick box option. Thanks for stopping by with the suggestion!

Sorry to always come in here to b!tch and complain, because it's a great platform, and I've been unable to find one I like more.

But.. please sort out your alerts, what is the point of having alerts if they react 5-10-15+ minutes after the fact? Including emails that late, you may as well turn off the feature, it's a bit of a joke. I've tried this with multiple brokers and the same issue persists. Unless there is something wrong with my cTrader cloud account, the issue is with your feature.

Usually on volatile movements the delays are the worst. Please, please, please fix it or remove the feature.

Hi all - I love Ctrader just maybe someone can help with an issue.

I cannot find a way to make a stop loss start trailing ONLY after break-even. I can set it to trail from the start of the trade but that's not what I want so unless I watch the trade and then manually move the stop loss to BE after a set profit I cant' do this.

Can anyone help?

(On MT4 when you set a trailing stop it automatically trails from break even....)
Always look for reasons not to take a trade
