cTrader for tick fills. MT5 for ecosystem.

Most Ticpoz users on IC Markets pick cTrader for the tick-level fills and OAuth simplicity. MT5 stays the better path if you have existing MT5 EAs to keep alongside.

Either path. Both audited.

  • cTrader Open API
    OAuth via cTrader. Tick-level fills. Native socket bridge. 23 ms median round-trip.
  • MetaTrader 5 bridge
    Signed EA on your MT5 terminal. WebSocket bridge to Ticpoz cloud.
  • Symbol portability
    A spec written for NAS100 on IC cTrader runs unchanged on IC MT5 — Ticpoz handles broker-specific suffixes.
  • Risk envelope first
    Daily DD, max DD, leverage cap and news lockout enforced before any IC-side order.
  • Regulated globally
    ASIC-regulated entity for AU clients; CySEC for EU; FSA-Seychelles for global clients.
