cTrader

cTrader trade copier

cTrader connects to DaneTrades through browser OAuth rather than a password form in the app. Authenticate with cTrader, approve access, return to DaneTrades, then assign master or follower roles on each copier link.

cTrader as an OAuth trading platform

Unlike web platforms that collect broker credentials in-form, cTrader uses a browser approval flow. Once accounts load into Trading Accounts, they participate in the same cloud master/receiver model as MT4, MT5, TradeLocker, DXtrade and MatchTrader.

Authenticate with cTrader, then verify with a small test

Open Add Account, choose cTrader, start Authenticate with cTrader, complete login and approval in the browser, then return to DaneTrades. Help recommends verifying with a small test copier link and checking Logs rather than assuming the first live trade will behave as expected.

Sizing and mapping after OAuth succeeds

Help does not document cTrader-only volume formulas. Use the shared sizing modes and Symbol Mapping on each connection. Filters, safe mode and disable behaviour apply the same way as on other trading platforms.

OAuth friction points

Allow popups for the approval window. Confirm you approve the intended cTrader/broker identity. Finish approval before returning to the app. If accounts do not appear immediately, wait for the post-approval load rather than repeating incomplete attempts.
