Which Trading Platform Do You Use For CFDs?

last update: August 13, 2026

The available trading platform depends on the trader’s region.

Non-US clients can use MetaTrader 5, cTrader, and TradingView.
US-based clients can use TradingView.

MetaTrader 5

There are multiple ways to download MetaTrader 5 to your computer. Once you register for an evaluation, you will be prompted to download the platform from your HUB. We will also send you an email with the download links.

cTrader

After registering for a new account, you will receive an email like the one below. To open cTrader, simply click the “Launch cTrader” icon.

Note: Using cTrader incurs an additional $10 fee on top of the program price.
Note: Platform choices are final once purchased and cannot be switched between. Please double-check your selection before placing your order.
Note: cTrader is no longer an option for new accounts for US clients.
For mobile users, both platforms are free and available for download from Google Play and the Apple Store. For more details, please see the link below:
