75%+ of retail investor accounts lose money trading CFDs.
Who it suits
Manual scalpers who want depth and one-click order tickets. If you live in MQL EAs, stay on MT4/MT5. Overview: account types.
FSCA note
Confirm you are on the entity shown at signup (FSCA FSP 45052 routes exist for SA). Licence: FSCA guide.
cTrader workflow for South Africa readers
Treat cTrader as its own account stack inside FxPro Direct: create a cTrader live or demo account, note the cTrader ID, then open the official desktop, web, or mobile client. MT4/MT5 logins and Expert Advisors do not move across.
- Register or sign in to FxPro Direct via our Partner link.
- Open Accounts → create cTrader (demo first if the ticket UI is new).
- Copy login / password / server details shown for that account.
- Fund the Wallet, allocate to the cTrader account, place a tiny test order.
Pricing model vs MT4 Standard
cTrader at FxPro is usually commission-style (published examples often cite about $3.50 per side per lot on FX - verify live). Standard MT4/MT5 packs cost into the spread. Scalpers who care about DOM depth often prefer cTrader; EA users stay on MT4/MT5. Compare all-in cost on the spreads page and platforms hub.
Mobile and web
cTrader mobile and web cover charts, Depth of Market style tickets, and basic order management. Heavy automation still belongs on desktop. If you mainly need Wallet/KYC, use the FxPro app path, then attach the cTrader account.
Local honesty (South Africa)
FSCA. ZAR funding path: ZAR deposits. Entity, leverage, and product list are set at onboarding - this guide does not invent a local licence for cTrader.
