Demo Connection
08 May 2020, 10:15


Is it possible to use on cTrader desktop a demo account that was created on one of the brokers (OCTA FX in my case) instead of the built in demo accounts?

The same question goes for the data feed connection. Can I connect to my broker's feed (at the moment demo only) instead of the built in connection?

The reason I want to do both of these things is because I want to get results (quotes, spreads etc.) which are as close as possible to the live results which I'll get when I'll be using my live account.

 

Thanks

Hi yuval.ein,

You can only use the accounts of your broker using your broker's cTrader. If you are using OctaFX cTrader then you should be able to use your OctaFX account and OctaFX price feeds.

Thank you.

How do I do that? on https://id-ct.spotware.com/ under "Trading Accounts" I can see an OctaFX demo account, however on my windows app under "Spotware accounts connected to cTrader id" I can see only the demo accounts which I created via the windows application

Hi yuval.ein,

Do you use OctaFX cTrader or Spotware cTrader? To see your OctaFX account, you need to use OctaFX cTrader.
