FxPro and TradingView: connecting a cTrader account

What exactly gets connected

The FxPro integration with TradingView works not with your FxPro Direct login or email password, but with a cTrader account. FxPro help states directly that the connection uses an FxPro cTrader account. This is important: a trading account and a client portal account are different entities.

The key identifier here is the cTrader ID (cTID). This is a separate account, not linked to FxPro Direct credentials. One cTID can be linked to multiple cTrader accounts. both demo and live. If you have traded via cTrader before, you most likely already have a cTID.

FxPro's official announcement of 19 November 2025 describes the full launch of the TradingView integration after beta testing and links it specifically to cTrader accounts. This confirms it is about trading via cTrader, not via MetaTrader.

This reference is not an official FxPro resource and is not affiliated with the broker. Below is the procedure based on official publications, without personal testing and without promises of results.

What to prepare before connecting

Before opening the TradingView trading panel, check three things.

• You have an FxPro cTrader account. demo or live. If you don't have an account, first understand accounts and their types: FxPro account types.
• You know your cTID credentials. If the password is lost, reset it on the page id.ctrader.com/reset, which FxPro help points to.
• You understand which legal entity will be your counterparty. FxPro help notes that terms depend on your country of residence and the contracting entity.

It is worth dwelling on the legal entity separately. The Russian language of the site does not mean services are available in Russia, and the French or Spanish version does not mean availability in France or Spain. Before registering, open the regulation page and check which legal entity and which license are specified for your country: FxPro regulation. This is a documentary check, not a guarantee of application approval.

If you have not yet created an account, start with registration, and after that complete verification. Access to trading usually opens after data verification.

How to connect a cTrader account to TradingView

Below is the sequence as described in FxPro help for the integration. Exact button labels in the TradingView interface may change, so focus on the meaning of the steps, not the literal text.

1. Open TradingView and find the Trading Panel.
2. In the broker list, select FxPro.
3. Connect the desired cTrader account by entering your cTID credentials.
4. Make sure the account connected is the one you plan to use.
5. Check your trading settings before sending your first order.

According to FxPro FAQ, only one FxPro cTrader account can be connected at a time. If you need to switch to another account, first disconnect the current one, then connect the new one. Trying to simply "add a second" will not work within this limitation.

The broker connection is described as free. Paid TradingView subscriptions are a separate product, not linked to the broker, and their cost does not depend on connecting FxPro.

Security and data

Do not disable antivirus or security mechanisms just to connect. This reference does not accept funds, credentials, or identity documents. Perform all account actions only on the official pages of FxPro, cTrader, and TradingView.

What to check right after connecting

Connecting is not the end of setup, but its beginning. Before real trades, check several parameters.

Account and instrument

Make sure the panel shows the account you expect, and that the selected instrument exists in the specification. An overview of instruments and contracts is in the FxPro markets section.

Quick order entry

cTrader has a QuickTrade feature that allows sending orders in one or two clicks. FxPro help recommends checking this setting before sending orders. In TradingView, entry speed also affects the result: an extra click when the market moves can change the execution price.

Demo mode

If you are just learning the setup, it is reasonable to start with a demo cTrader account. How this works is described in the FxPro demo account section. Demo does not replicate real slippage and liquidity, but it helps you learn the sequence of actions.

Leverage and margin

Leverage settings depend on the legal entity and account type. Do not rely on maximum values from third-party reviews: check the current limits for your account. General calculation principles are in the leverage and margin section.

cTID and FxPro Direct: don't confuse the accounts

One common mistake is trying to log in to the TradingView integration using FxPro Direct credentials. FxPro help emphasizes: cTID and FxPro Direct credentials are different things.

One cTID can link multiple cTrader accounts. So if you don't see the desired account in the list, it may be linked to another cTID. cTID password reset is done via id.ctrader.com/reset.

If you have trouble logging into the portal itself, see the breakdown of FxPro Direct login. it describes the differences in credentials for different platforms.

Limitations and discrepancies in sources

In official FxPro materials there are places that should be read carefully and not assumed on behalf of the broker.

Outdated pages

Old FAQ pages may describe a product state that has already changed. The current launch of the integration is dated 19 November 2025, so rely on the current product page, not archival wording. If the old help and the new page diverge, rely on the more recent official publication.

Zero swaps and swap tables

Promotional wording about "zero swaps" may not match the swap tables for specific instruments. Always check the table for your instrument: FxPro fees.

Minimum deposit and recommendations

A broker recommendation in a review and the actual minimum deposit for a specific account are different things. Check the terms for your account type, not a general recommendation.

Country and legal entity

Service availability depends on your country of residence and the contracting entity. We have not checked availability in Russia, France, or Spain and do not assert it. Before registering, independently study which legal entity is specified for your country and what licenses it holds. A Bank of Russia warning, if mentioned in public sources, is not the result of a search in the licensing register and not a court decision; do not interpret it more broadly than it is.

Payments and withdrawal

Connecting to TradingView does not change the deposit and withdrawal procedure. If needed, see the sections deposit and withdrawal.

If something doesn't connect

Below are typical checkpoints. They are based on the official description of the procedure, not on testing.

• Check that you are using cTID credentials, not your FxPro Direct login.
• Make sure the cTrader account exists and is active. A demo account also works.
• If another account is connected, disconnect it and connect the desired one: only one is available at a time.
• Check that the broker FxPro is selected in the trading panel.
• If there is a problem logging into cTrader, use the cTID reset page.
• Do not disable security mechanisms and do not share credentials with third parties.

If after checks the connection does not work, contact the broker's official support. How to describe the problem so it is understood the first time is in the FxPro support section.

What this instruction does not do

We do not provide investment recommendations, do not promise returns, and do not claim that trading via TradingView is safer or more profitable. It is an execution tool, not a strategy. CFD risks are described separately: CFD risks.
