Spotware unveils cTrader 5.2 with advanced risk-reward tools

Spotware, the developer of multi-asset trading platform, cTrader, has unveiled a further set of updates with the release of cTrader 5.2. The latest release introduces a range of enhanced trading capabilities across Mobile, Web, Windows and Mac.

With new risk-reward tools, improved price alert automation and user interface enhancements, this release reinforces cTrader’s position as the preferred choice for brokers, prop firms and traders worldwide while reaffirming its commitment to innovation and delivering a premium trading experience to the global trading community.

Improved mobile trading with risk-reward tool 

cTrader Mobile 5.2 introduces the highly anticipated risk-reward tool, allowing traders to calculate deal volume effortlessly based on stop-loss levels and risk exposure directly on the trading chart. With three calculation modes–risk, reward or size–traders can instantly determine the correct order size and execute trades. Placing an order and unlocking rewarding trading can then be done with a tap.

Of particular note, version 5.2 of the mobile app offers a one-second launch time, ensuring traders can react instantly to market movements and never miss an opportunity.

Additionally, traders will now receive in-app notifications when a new cTrader version is available, ensuring they stay updated with the latest features and improvements. 

Beyond mobile improvements, cTrader Copy also receives valuable enhancements. cTrader Copy users now have the ability to filter deal history for any strategy, sorting results by closing time, opening time, symbol and more. Custom date ranges can also be applied, providing deeper insights into strategy performance and investment decisions.

Chart enhancements in cTrader Web

cTrader Web 5.2 introduces a useful visibility feature for chart objects, allowing users to assign specific timeframes to indicators and drawings. This refinement allows you to selectively display technical analysis based on the chart period being viewed and save time by automatically hiding objects when switching between periods.

The new object manager now enables bulk modification of chart elements, including locking, hiding, adjusting visibility and styling. This enhancement makes chart organisation more intuitive and efficient.

To keep traders informed on key events in their session, a “Notifications” tab has been added to the Active Symbol Panel, providing real-time updates on orders, positions, workspaces and other key trading activities.

Furthermore, traders can now upload locally stored .algo files to expand their collection of algorithms within cloud storage. With free cloud execution, cBots can be deployed instantly, enabling uninterrupted cross-device algorithmic trading 24/7.

Price alert automation via API 

cTrader Windows 5.2 integrates risk-reward visualisation, enabling traders to analyse potential trade outcomes directly on the chart. Developers can leverage the new ChartRiskReward API to enhance trading strategies with precise risk assessment.

The update also introduces new interfaces for setting and managing price alerts programmatically, making it easier to monitor key market levels and automate trades when specific conditions are met.

Algorithms running within the same cTrader instance can now communicate in real time using new messaging interfaces. This unlocks more dynamic, event-driven strategies and supports advanced automation.

For greater transparency, the updated APIs also give developers access to deposit and withdrawal records, helping them review balance history and carry out audits more efficiently.

Customisation takes a leap forward with draggable UI elements, allowing traders to reposition interface components such as buttons, panels and widgets for a more flexible and intuitive workspace.

Finally, the new tab API makes it easier to organise multiple views within a single workspace. By grouping related content into tabs, traders can efficiently navigate between cBots, indicators and plugins, creating a structured and user-friendly interface.

A refined Mac trading experience with smarter tools

cTrader Mac 5.2 enhances trading efficiency with customisable watchlists, allowing users to organise symbols for quick access. Traders can now drag and drop symbols into charts for immediate market analysis and execute pending orders using Quick Trade for a streamlined trading process.

The new “Watchlists” tab allows users to create and customise symbol groups, ensuring quick access to frequently traded instruments. Chart navigation is now more intuitive with drag-and-drop functionality. Simply drag a symbol from Watchlists into the chart area to instantly display price movements, making market analysis faster and more convenient.

Placing pending orders has also been streamlined with Quick Trade enhancements. Traders can now drag and drop Quick Trade buttons onto the chart area, reducing steps and improving efficiency when executing non-market orders.

For greater trade visibility, the new deal map provides a clear graphical representation of winning and losing trades directly on symbol charts. This feature helps traders evaluate performance at a glance, detect trends and make informed decisions.

Finally, mini charts on order screens offer a real-time view of entry points and risk levels, empowering traders to make precise, data-driven adjustments for better trade execution.

Ilia Iarovitcyn, CEO at Spotware, commented on the release: “Every enhancement in cTrader 5.2 reflects our Traders First™ commitment. With just 1-second from icon tap to first price tick, to advanced risk-reward tools and API-powered automation, we’ve focused on what genuinely elevates trader performance–bringing institutional-grade capabilities to the cTrader community.”
