cTrader launched a creator program on September 3, starting with a one-month call for YouTube videos about artificial intelligence in trading. The cTrader channel displayed 221,000 subscribers when checked by FinanceMagnates.com.
cTrader announced that it had crossed 100,000 subscribers on June 11. The creator program will use that expanded audience to place approved videos on both participating creators' channels and cTrader's channel.
For Spotware, the campaign adds creator-led education and distribution to AI tools released earlier this year. It also extends the company's wider work with third-party developers and trading-tool creators.
First Campaign Focuses on AI Trading
Participants can produce tutorials, experiments, technical walkthroughs or practical demonstrations showing how they use AI with cTrader. The program does not prescribe a single video format or presentation style.
The invitation is also open to creators who cover coding, technology and large language models without working as professional traders. Spotware wants the videos to demonstrate its tools in real trading-related workflows.

Approved submissions will be published through YouTube's collaboration feature. Each video will appear on the creator's channel and cTrader's channel, giving participants access to both audiences.
Creators from any country may apply through the program website. Applications for the first campaign close September 30.
MCP and CLI Supply the First Video Topics
The initial campaign centers on two products. Both qualify for submissions. Spotware opened cTrader to external AI agents in May through local and remote Model Context Protocol servers.
MCP allows compatible AI applications to retrieve market and account data, analyze charts and submit trading instructions through natural-language requests. The local server can also control parts of the desktop workspace, including charts, timeframes, watchlists and alerts.
The remote version connects AI applications to account functions through cTrader Web. Supported applications cited by Spotware include Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini CLI and GitHub Copilot.
In August, the company released cTrader CLI, a command-line application for account queries, market data, backtests and cBots. It can run without the graphical platform through Windows terminals or Linux Docker deployments.
Platforms Expand Access to AI Agents
Other retail trading platforms have introduced their own routes for connecting AI applications. MetaQuotes put MetaTrader 5 Build 6030 into beta on July 16, adding AI agents to charts, market data, trading accounts and strategy-testing workflows.
ThinkMarkets launched ChelseaAI on June 1. Its MCP server allows connected AI clients to execute orders, while traders can limit the permitted order types and keep agents away from deposits and withdrawals.
The cTrader campaign concentrates on showing how such connections work in practice. Creators have until September 30 to submit videos for the first open call.
Spotware described this as the first stage of a continuing program. It said later campaigns will introduce other formats, subjects and collaboration opportunities.
