cTrader Open API

cTrader Open API - A RESTful/Protobuf API offered by cTrader for third-party integration. Unlike cBots (which run inside cTrader), the Open API lets external applications connect to cTrader broker accounts. It supports all trading operations (order placement, market data, account info) with low latency. For example, developers can build an external dashboard or copy-trading service that uses the Open API to execute trades on behalf of cTrader users. Spotware describes it as “an all-in-one API for any trading software…using the cTrader backend”. This API is primarily used by developers of independent apps; traders use it indirectly via those apps (e.g., a third-party terminal that integrates with cTrader).
