      cTrader x ConnextFX: Trading moves forward when traders come first

      Posted: just now

      Global

      ConnextFX, a global FX/CFD broker, has added cTrader to its platform lineup, bringing a premium trading experience to its growing client base. Recognised as Best Trading Platform and Top Trading Platform for Brokers in 2026, cTrader will equip Connext traders at all levels with a transparent and powerful trading environment, while giving Connext a scalable foundation for its global expansion.


      Connext’s vision is to revolutionise the forex trading industry by creating a seamless and technology-driven trading experience. Its partnership with cTrader supports this direction, as it stays at the forefront of innovation. As an Open Trading Platform™, it provides brokers with infrastructure without lock-in, allowing them to build front-end solutions for traders, tailor the platform UI and integrate 200+ popular FX/CFD services. This flexibility is made possible through cTrader Open API service, available to brokers at no extra cost.


      Named “Top Brokers for Customer Service 2025”, Connext strives to help traders progress at every stage of their journey and provide them with the best trading experience. This client-focused approach is strengthened by cTrader, a platform continuously enhanced around modern trader expectations, in line with its Traders First™ approach. Its 4.8 Trustpilot rating reflects what traders value in daily use: built-in risk-management tools, DOM, free cloud execution and native C# and Python support for cTrader Algo. Beyond these platform capabilities, Connext traders can keep track of market moves through built-in market news and an economic calendar, with both features included free of charge.


      cTrader Store will also help Connext make its offering even more appealing to traders and open new client acquisition routes. With 2,000+ popular trading products and a large cTrader community actively exploring them, Store connects brokers with 11M+ traders through the tools and strategies they are already looking for. This product-led flow is part of cTrader Leads programme, which helps brokers attract engaged prospective customers through cTrader products and improve live trading conversion. For Connext partners, cTrader Store Affiliate programme extends the broker-IB model, providing two revenue streams: broker referrals and Store-driven earnings from products and sellers.


      “Today’s traders expect more than just access – they need a platform that is flexible, reliable and built for performance. Our partnership with cTrader marks a significant step forward in strengthening our technology stack, delivering better execution, and enhancing the overall trading experience for our clients. At the same time, this collaboration supports our global expansion strategy. As we continue to grow across Southeast Asia and Latin America, cTrader will play a key role in helping us scale efficiently and build a stronger, more trusted global brand,” said Simon Andras, CEO of ConnextFX.


      Yiota Hadjilouka, COO of Spotware, added: “Connext is taking an ambitious approach to growth, combining innovation with a strong focus on trader needs – a direction that closely reflects our Traders First™ approach. Together with Connext, we aim to raise the standard for trading quality in the industry by bringing traders a more transparent, powerful and accessible platform experience. We are delighted to support Connext as it brings this vision to more traders worldwide.”
