Question:Will internet connection speed affect functionality of cTrader trading platform?
Answer:
The developer of cTrader, Spotware specifies the following internet conditions as a “minimum” and “recommended” requirements.
Internet Connection | |
---|---|
Minimum | Stable connection with 50kB per second |
Recommended | Stable connection with 100kB per second |
The frequency of price feed(or normally referred as “Tick Frequency”) depends on the broker you trade with and the server your account and platform is connected to.
The maximum speed of connection can be restricted by the capacity of your broker’s server though, your trading platform can’t even benefit from the better condition in case your internet environment is not well.
To improve the quality of trading activity, you are recommended to organize your internet environment for the better and stop any extra and unnecessary applications around the platform.
