Read full description

Broker Open API Trader is a sample app that was created using the cTrader Open API protocol and it includes all the general forex trading functionality of the cTrader platform. In general, the cTrader Open API protocol is language-neutral service that allows any developer to execute any trading order, pull historical data or create a custom analytic service both for your personal or public use. To begin using our app, or to become an Open API developer, all you need is an account with any broker that has a cTrader trading terminal. The Open API department provides instant support for developers and can be contacted by both email and Telegram chat. Any question or problem you might encounter during the development process will be answered quickly and effectively. This app is mostly intended for beginner traders, providing them with the opportunity to experience demo trading processed by the ultra-low latency cTrader backend through a simple interface for daily trading. Please note that only demo accounts can be used in our app. Use the Broker Open API Trader app as an inspiration, whether you are an affiliate, a white-label broker or just a trader who is interested in a customised trading app. As previously mentioned, it is connected to the cTrader Open API protocol, which is accessible to everyone and intended to give traders and developers the opportunity to create customised trading terminals or analytic products. The app is programmed on Flutter: the most popular and effective technology for mobile app development at the moment. You can watch EURUSD, XAUUSD, US Oil and other currency quotes or trade currency pairs, stocks, indices and commodities. You can also use technical analysis tools to explore the forex market and to execute your market and pending orders on a lightning-quick service through our mobile forex trading platform. Since there are more than 200 brokers in the cTrader ecosystem, our app is available for traders on five continents and in dozens of financial jurisdictions. If you wish to create a customised mobile trading platform but are not familiar with software development, we can provide you with a consultation. We can also help you to find a skilled developer who is familiar with the Open API protocol. cTrader Open API is a user-friendly service that was created to allow fast and easy integration of third-party trading tools into the cTrader ecosystem.

About

SentryQ

Features
Read full description

SentryQ puts your trading engine in your pocket. SentryQ is the companion app for the SentryQ desktop platform — software that runs validated FX strategies on YOUR broker account (cTrader or MetaTrader 5), under a stack of capital-protection guards. The mobile app connects to your own engine so you can watch it, control it, and act on opportunities from anywhere. LIVE MONITORING • Equity, balance, day P&L and open positions, straight from your engine • Live pair charts with each strategy's own overlays, from your broker's price feed • A plain-English day summary: what traded, what was held back, and why FULL REMOTE CONTROL • Pause, resume, or emergency-stop trading with one tap • Close positions and cancel orders remotely • Adjust risk caps and toggle every safety feature YOUR SIGNALS, PROFESSIONALLY MANAGED • Paste any trading signal — or build one — and your engine sizes it from your stop distance at your configured risk, checks it against every safety guard, and shows you the exact plan before anything is placed • Follow Telegram signal channels through the Sources directory: every signal a source posts reaches you instantly, sized by your engine, always confirm-first THE LEADERBOARD • Signal sources are scored honestly: every signal is recorded the moment it is posted (history can't be rewritten) and replayed against real market prices • Sources are ranked by real results — win rate, average outcome, profit factor — so you can see who is actually worth following BUILT-IN PROTECTION Your engine's guards work for every trade, automated or manual: daily-loss limits, an equity guardian, exposure caps, news and spread filters, cooling-off rules and more. IMPORTANT SentryQ requires a SentryQ account and the SentryQ desktop platform (or hosted engine) connected to your own broker account. Trading foreign exchange carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. You could lose some or all of your invested capital. SentryQ is software; it does not provide investment advice, and past performance of any strategy or signal source is not a guarantee of future results.
