cBot: AI Level Trader

AI Level Trader is an experimental AI-powered cBot built around a multi-provider consensus engine. It can query up to 11 AI providers, compare their responses and generate trade setups only when the selected consensus rules are met.

The cBot combines AI voting with key price level detection, risk filters, session controls and a live chart panel. Its architecture brings together provider fallback handling, AI performance tracking and detailed runtime diagnostics, making it one of the most ambitious AI-focused products available in cTrader Store.

🔎 cBot functionality:
- Multi-AI consensus engine.
- Support for up to 11 AI providers.
- Smart price level detection.
-Prop firm rules and risk filters.
- ATR volatility filter and trading sessions.
- Partial close and cooldown system.
- Live chart panel with real-time AI status.

⭐️ Trader’s feedback:

AI Level Trader feels more like an experimental AI trading infrastructure project than a classic cBot. The multi-provider consensus idea is genuinely creative, and the runtime logs show real interaction with external AI models. At the same time, the system inherits all the instability of modern LLM APIs: malformed outputs, fallback loops, and inconsistent execution behaviour.

cTrader now supports server-side scaling out across all cTrader apps

cTrader launches advanced take-profit: now you can set up to five take-profit levels and decide how much volume to close at each level.

It works server-side. Once your take-profit levels are set, they are be executed automatically when the price hits the target, without managing every exit manually from your device.

You can set it up from the “Place order”, “Modify order” and “Position” screens, as well as directly from the chart.

Try it out and share your feedback in the comments.

Indicator: TDI Signal Pro

TDI Signal Pro is an advanced RSI volatility indicator built around the Traders Dynamic Index methodology. It brings together volatility bands, RSI signal logic, divergence detection, multi-timeframe confirmation and alerts in one structured tool.

The indicator projects signals directly onto the price chart using arrows and short labels, making it easier to follow Shark Fin, Extreme Cross and Divergence signals without switching between multiple views.

🔎 Indicator functionality:
• RSI-based volatility band analysis with Shark Fin and Extreme Cross signal detection.
• Classic RSI divergence detection and multi-timeframe RSI confirmation.
• Signal arrows and labels displayed directly on the chart.
• Flexible alert options, including log output, sound alerts and on-chart popups.
• Configurable settings for signals, chart arrows, alerts and display preferences.

TDI Signal Pro is designed for traders who want a more complete RSI-based analysis tool, combining multiple signal types and visual confirmations in a clean, organised format.

⭐️ Trader's feedback:

TDI Signal Pro is a well-structured RSI volatility framework that combines multiple signal types into one organized system. Shark Fin, Extreme Cross, and Divergence modules complement each other well, while the MTF RSI and flexible alerts add practical trading value. The indicator feels more like a complete momentum-analysis toolkit than a simple signal generator.
