Important Note
A detailed step-by-step installation guide is included in your purchase package. This page provides a general overview of the setup process. For comprehensive instructions with screenshots and detailed explanations, please refer to the documentation included with your CRS BOT purchase.
Create Fusion Markets Account
Fusion Markets is the broker we use for CRS BOT. You'll need to create an account with them to access the cTrader platform and execute trades.
Account Setup Process
- 1.Visit the Fusion Markets website
- 2.Click on "Open Account" or "Sign Up"
- 3.Complete the registration form with your personal information
- 4.Verify your identity (standard regulatory requirement - government ID, proof of address)
- 5.Choose your account type (consider spreads, commissions, and minimum deposit - raw spread is the best option)
- 6.Make your initial deposit using your preferred payment method
- 7.Wait for account approval (usually within 24-48 hours)
Remember: You can use any broker that offers cTrader. We use Fusion Markets, but you're free to choose another broker if you prefer.
Results may vary depending on your broker's spreads, execution speed, and trading conditions.
Install cTrader Platform
cTrader is the trading platform required for CRS BOT. Once your broker account is approved, you'll download and install cTrader Desktop.
Installation Process
- 1.Your broker (Fusion Markets or another cTrader broker) will provide a download link for cTrader
- 2.Download the cTrader Desktop installer for Windows
- 3.Run the installer and follow the installation wizard
- 4.Launch cTrader Desktop after installation completes
- 5.You'll be prompted to log in - use the credentials provided by your broker
Important: cTrader Desktop is Windows-only. If you use Mac or Linux, you'll need to:
- •Use a Windows VPS (Virtual Private Server)
- •Run Windows in a virtual machine (Parallels, VMware)
- •Use cTrader Web for monitoring (limited bot functionality)
Connect Broker to cTrader
Once cTrader is installed, you'll connect it to your broker account. This process is usually automatic if you downloaded cTrader from your broker's website.
Connection Process
- 1.Open cTrader Desktop
- 2.If not automatically logged in, select your broker from the broker list
- 3.Enter your account credentials (provided by your broker)
- 4.Choose between Demo or Live account
- 5.Once connected, you'll see your account balance and available markets
Recommended: Start with Demo
We strongly recommend testing CRS BOT on a demo account first. This allows you to verify the installation, understand how the bot operates, and build confidence before risking real capital.
