Spotware Systems today announced the release of cTrader Desktop 4.7.

The latest platform release delivers several fundamental features to the growing audience of traders and algo developers. With Market Replay, users can test their trading approaches based on historical data and without the risk of losing real funds. The cTrader Automate API now benefits from full internet access, the ChartShot method, built-in sounds for notifications in cBots and custom indicators, and the Help Center integrated into the app.

With Market Replay, users can test their trading ideas and approaches based on historical tick data. Traders can increase and decrease the playback speed. This not only allows traders to test new approaches, but also serves as an educational tool for beginners.

The platform now offers specialised API methods for algorithms allowing them to go online without AccessRights.FullAccess. Algorithms can communicate with external services through JSON or HTML without compromising users’ PCs.

Due to the TakeChartshot() method, algorithms can take ChartShots of the current chart. They can be saved and used for additional protocoling of cBot actions.

Guides, videos, and articles from the Help Center are now available in the right column next to the code editor window. Find all reference information staying on the platform: no need to google.

From now on algo developers can use 5 built-in sounds in Automate API for adding sound notifications in their cBots and custom indicators.

Spotware has implemented two new overloads for more convenient currency conversion. You can now receive accurate conversion rates even if you pass arguments of two different types (Asset and String) into the Convert() method.

To satisfy users’ requests, Spotware has made the indicator panels on charts more compact. Now, there is more space for the chart itself.
