Connect cTrader
Authorise cTrader over OAuth, pick the right trading account and understand what differs from MetaTrader.
Differences from MetaTrader
| Topic | cTrader |
|---|---|
| Position model | Set by your broker and account type (hedging or netting). On a netting account a second trade in the same symbol adds to the existing position instead of opening a parallel one. |
| Volume units | Expressed in units, converted from lots by PipSync using the symbol spec. |
| Partial closes | Supported natively, which makes multi-target signals cleaner than on MT5. |
| Symbol names | PipSync matches the symbol in the signal against the account's own symbol list. A name your broker does not carry is refused. |
If it will not connect
- Authorisation expired or revoked — there is no re-authorise button on the account page. Run Add account → cTrader → Connect with cTrader again and import the account again; it does not take another slot.
- Account not listed — it belongs to a different cTrader ID, it is on the other environment (Demo / Live), or it is disabled at cTrader.
- Orders rejected — the instrument is not tradable on that account type; check it in the cTrader platform first.
