cTrader opens multi-platform plugins to broker-owned services

Bro​kers and prop fir​ms can now offer their own plu​gins – pre-in​sta​lled in cTra​der for exi​sting clien​ts or li​sted in cTra​der Sto​re. The​re's no need to wait for a core-pla​tform re​lea​se: plu​gins are bui​lt and laun​ched in​de​pen​den​tly, so bro​kers and prop fir​ms can bring new se​rvi​ces to their clien​ts fa​ster wi​thout extra effort and give their offe​ring a stron​ger point of di​ffe​ren​ce.  

Build it your way

cTra​der is de​si​g​ned to be open – giving bro​kers and prop fir​ms spa​ce to extend the pla​tform with fun​ctio​na​li​ty that re​fle​cts their real bu​si​ne​ss nee​ds. Pre-in​sta​lled plu​gins make that po​ssi​ble by giving spe​cia​li​sed too​ls a de​di​ca​ted spa​ce di​re​ctly in​si​de cTra​der, whi​le the core pla​tform expe​rien​ce sta​ys un​tou​ched. 

Now there is an opportunity to deliver a wide range of services: AI assistants and trading journals, signals and trade ideas, trading calculators, market analysis, economic calendars and news, analytics dashboards, client support and engagement tools, bespoke dashboards, gamification tools and other services.

Less development effort

Plugins are multi-platform, available across cTrader Mobile, Web, Windows and Mac, so firms do not need to build separate solutions for each platform and can bring their existing web tools into cTrader often with minimal adaptation.

And if the right tool does not exist yet, it can be built with a technology or content provider. There is no need to search far for the right expertise either. cTrader already has a global community of experienced developers and algo creators who know the platform and can help turn an existing service or new idea into a branded product.

Choo​se how your plu​gin rea​ches clien​ts 

Au​to​ma​tic de​livery – the plu​gin is pre-in​sta​lled for every client of the bro​ker or prop firm. 

cTrader Store only – the plu​gin is li​sted in cTra​der Sto​re, but it is not acce​ssi​ble to clien​ts of other bro​kers or prop fir​ms. 

Business value

The plugins give brokers and prop firms the ability to shape their cTrader offering around their own brand.

The first advantage is differentiation. An exclusive tool or service sets the firm apart, gives a significant competitive advantage and makes the offering more distinctive.

The second is customisation around specific trader needs. Plugins can be tailored to a particular trader segment, business model or use case. This is especially relevant for prop firms, where services can support specific challenge rules, trader journeys, analytics, risk requirements and other needs unique to the firm's model.

Addi​tio​na​lly, the plu​gin can be li​sted in cTra​der Sto​re and rea​ch 12M tra​ders the​re, giving bro​kers and prop fir​ms ano​ther oppor​tu​ni​ty for lead ge​ne​ra​tion. 

Sergey Borisov, Head of Product Development, said: "cTra​der is an Open Tra​ding Pla​tfor​m™, bui​lt to be fle​xi​ble – bro​kers and prop fir​ms de​ci​de how their offe​ring loo​ks, not us. In to​da​y's wor​ld, whe​re AI has made co​ding far more acce​ssi​ble, plu​gins are be​co​ming a po​wer​ful tool for our clien​ts. Crea​ting a more per​so​na​li​sed expe​rien​ce no lon​ger means a co​mplex deve​lo​pment pro​je​ct – now, the va​lue can be qui​ckly de​live​red to mar​ket wi​thout co​stly in​te​g​ra​tions. That’s what the plu​gins offer: a new way to di​ffe​ren​tia​te, re​tain and acqui​re clien​ts on their own ter​ms, with too​ls bui​lt spe​ci​fi​ca​lly for their bu​si​ne​ss."
