cTrader developed by Spotware came onto the trading scene only in 2011. Within 5 years this ‘MetaTrader killer’ has taken a significant chunk out of the retail trading market to the extent that several brokers now offer both cTrader and MetaTrader to clients.
Understandably, cTrader has tried to improve upon MetaTrader’s faults given its late release date by comparison. The platform looks and feels sleeker, and is noticeably more modern in terms of both aesthetic looks and functionality. cTrader also sports more order types and a sleeker and more intuitive platform navigation.
The interface is clean and there is not a great deal of noticeable difference between cTrader and other retail platforms including MetaTrader. This is especially the case for beginners. The same features such as charts, trade logging, account management tools, back testing and technical indicators are all available.
