I also have this issue. Sometimes it loads up faster, sometimes slower on my home PC (15Mb broadband speed) which is anything between 1 and 10 min. But at work it loads usually faster, sometimes within seconds (we have 20Mb broadband at work) - so not sure this has anything to do with broadband or computer speed. And that's with only one chart (13 ticks) open in cTrader (I use MT4 for the rest of charting). Another issue is the delay of tick chart that occasionally happens (during price busy periods) so that the tick chart is few seconds delayed against mt4 feed (both from the same broker).. Hope there will be a solution to that soon.

Maybe speak to FxPro's support people and ask them to update/raise the issue with their managment

IC Markets with v1.29.56605

 

Updated the other day, not sure if that had anything to do with it but I mentioned cTrader version discrepancy with one of IC Market's support members and a couple of days later they updated theirs.

By the way there is another little issue with menus on top of the chart area. Not sure if I should report that in a new thread or elsehere. If mouse cursor is moved to a submenu too slowly then the menu will disappear (the cursor will activate the background of the button it seems and hide the chosen submenu) please see the following video that hopefully illustrates the issue rather clearly http://screencast.com/t/G4uK2ZWS301 . So I have to move my mouse quite precisely and quite quickly every time I navigate those menus.

This problem is most prominent in timeframes/ticks menu, and less of a problem in indicators submenus and is pretty much non existent in chart color submenus. Just wanted to add that the MouseHoverTime (registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse) on my win7 is reduced to 30ms (instead of default 400ms) which exaggerates the problem but I can imagine that even with default settings the sub menu will dissapear if one moves the mouse cursor slow enough.

Also can anybody tell me what is the latest version of cTrader at the moment? and where can I do the update?

I just found some other threads with people experiencing the same/similar problem, sometimes occurring while changing timeframes, seems that this is quite an old issue and still no fix to that?

That would be a very very useful feature, since we already have an option to set multiple TP it would be nice to have similar option for SL, so we can manage the risk more appropriately and also trail price with SL that will only close a specific part of a position.
And the perfect implementation would be to set such SL advancement automatically (kind of trailing SL) so we could set something like this example: once 25 pips in profit set a SL (to close 50% of position) at +22 pips and trail with 3 pips - so if price starts going against you you will have 50% locked in at 22 pips but if price continues in your direction then SL trails at 3 pips optimizing the profit

Sound, email and also a notification sent to a smartphone with cTrader on it. Additionally it would be nice to have alerts on the server so we don't have to have a cTrader running on a computer for alarm to work..
If you trade longer TF then you might be out and about when price reaches the area of interest - then the alarm would notify you (without having to have PC on at home) and you could manage trade/entry on mobile app

Besides there is an error. Max ticks currently is 34 but in "What's new" section the post about added tick charts says we can view tick charts of up to 55 ticks.
