The new example is based on cTrader Open API, ASP.Net Core and SignalR, and it demonstrates how to build a full blown web application on top of Open API. It includes examples of authenticating using OAuth, subscribing to and managing live price streams, displaying price charts and managing orders and positions.

Traders can use it as the base of their next web trading application.

Earlier this year, Spotware announced the release of an Open API Library, a console application, a WinForms application and a WPF application, as covered by Fazzaco in April​.

The Open API Library is a collection of essential but advanced code that makes it simple to connect Open API with your .Net application, and implement the core features of a trading program.

Spotware's protobuf-based API, Open API 2.0, is a new version of the publicly available API. It enables third-party service providers to connect additional trading and analytical tools and apps with Spotware platform data and functionality by obtaining the essential cTID data, market data, and completing all conceivable trading activities on behalf of other cTrader customers.

Open API 2.0 is designed to use solely protocol buffers. Now by using Protocol Buffers you can retrieve accounts information, market data, and trading data, while the version 1.0 was using a different protocol for each scope (REST and Protocol Buffers).
