I use web ctrader at the mo and there is a noticable delay in closing positions as I scalp on the 1 min.

If I buy a pc and install the desktop version, pc would be very fast 16gb i7 intel, only running desktop ctrader... would positions close faster or be the same? Broadband speed is fibre, so it insane fast.

On the web ctrader I lose money as it never closes when i want, there is a delay.

RE:

Hello

The delay is milli seconds but when I close a trade, the actual time passed always causes me to lose money and as I am 1 min scalp trader, these loses with my volume add up to large sums. 

before I pay for a PC set up, just need to know would a desktop version close faster than the web version onthe same speed broadband?>

There should not be a notable difference. Please note that in an ECN environment, an order takes about 100-200 ms to be executed depending on your computer's location.
