cMind for cTrader brokers 🏦
You run a cTrader brokerage. Your clients can already trade — but so can every other broker's clients. cMind lets you hand your traders a full AI-powered trading operations platform, branded as your own, so they build, backtest, run, copy, and monitor strategies inside your ecosystem instead of drifting to a third-party tool. That's stickier clients, more volume, and a real edge over brokers offering nothing but a terminal.
Run a white-label cMind for your clients. Restrict accounts to your brokerage, switch on AI and copy trading, and ship it under your brand. → White-label for business
The edge you get over other brokers
- Differentiate on tooling, not just spreads. Give clients AI cBot generation, backtesting on a managed cluster, copy trading, and prop-firm challenges — capabilities most brokers simply don't offer.
- Keep clients in your ecosystem. When traders build and run their strategies inside your branded platform, they stay. Retention is the whole game.
- Under your brand, on your domain. Name, logo, colors, favicon, even the installable phone app — all yours. Nobody sees "cMind." → White-label feature
Serve only your accounts (broker allowlist)
Running a white-label for your clients? Restrict which brokers' trading accounts users may add so your deployment only ever serves your book:
{
"App": {
"Accounts": {
"AllowedBrokers": ["Your Brokerage Name"]
}
}
}
When the allowlist is set, cMind checks every account a user tries to add — both via the cTrader Open API and via manual cID login (verified by reading the account's real broker name) — and rejects any account that isn't on your list. Leave it empty and every broker is allowed (the default). See the White-label feature doc for the full mechanics.
Ship one Open API app for all your users
Skip the per-user hassle: provide one cTrader Open API application and every client authorizes their accounts through it — no client ever registers their own. Register a single redirect URL, drop the credentials in config or the owner settings, and shared-mode turns on for everyone. Negotiated a higher cTrader message limit? Tune the per-message-type client rate limits (or disable pacing). → Shared Open API application & rate limits
New ways to monetize
- AI, with zero friction for clients. Provide a default AI provider key at the deployment level and every client gets AI features instantly — no signup elsewhere. Mark it up, or bundle it into premium tiers. Clients can still bring their own key. → AI feature
- Prop-firm challenges. Run funded-trader challenges with live equity tracking and enforced rules, and charge for entries. → Prop-firm rules
- Copy-trading business. Performance fees and a provider marketplace turn copy trading into revenue. → Performance fees · Provider marketplace
- Feature tiers. Decide which capabilities each client segment sees with feature toggles.
Regulated, auditable, multi-tenant
- Compliance logs give you the audit trail your regulator will ask for.
- Two-factor auth can be made mandatory per deployment.
- Per-client branding — run a separate branded instance per segment, driven from your own control plane. → Multi-tenant branding
