Independent alternatives
Keep several interpretations alive at once instead of redrawing the chart every time your assumptions change.
cTrader · Public beta 0.9.0 · Windows & Mac
The market doesn't have one possible future.
Your analysis shouldn't either.
Build, calculate and save alternative trading scenarios directly on your cTrader charts — combining Trade planning and Elliott Wave analysis in one visual workspace.
Beta platform support: cTrader Windows and Mac only. Not currently supported on Android, iPhone/iPad or cTrader Web.
▥ Multiple scenarios◉ Elliott Wave analysis▣ Save across timeframes
＋ EnlargeONE CHART. MULTIPLE POSSIBILITIES.
Stop forcing your analysis into a single outcome.
Markets branch. A setup can invalidate, extend, reverse or evolve into something completely different. WHAT IF? gives each possibility its own Scenario, so you can model the alternatives without destroying the work you've already done.
SCENARIOS
Build complete market ideas, not just lines on a chart.
A Scenario can contain multiple Trade and Elliott series. Each component is an independent copy: move nodes, change position sizes, alter a wave count or remove a component without changing the original series it came from.
Simple cross-chart ruleUnsaved = local. Saved = global. Last explicit Save Group wins.
Work privately on an idea, then save it when you're ready for that Scenario to become the shared version available to your other WITC charts.
＋ EnlargeELLIOTT WAVE ANALYSIS
Colour-coded Elliott Wave analysis.
Keep complex scenarios readable.
Different Elliott Wave degrees use distinct colours, making multiple counts easy to identify on the chart.
The series colour carries through to its plotted nodes, connecting lines and wave labels, so you can immediately see which count and degree you are working with — even when several alternatives occupy the same chart.
✓ Degree-aware colour coding✓ Matching series controls, nodes, lines and labels✓ Multiple alternative wave counts on one chart✓ Show, hide and edit each series independently

＋ EnlargeTRADE SERIES
Model and compare multiple trade ideas.
Create multiple Trade series with their own colour, size and settings. Plot entries, stops, targets and calculate position size and potential profit/loss for each alternative.
✓ Multiple trades on the same chart✓ Individually colour-coded series✓ Interactive node-based plotting✓ Trade size, value and P/L calculations✓ Save reusable Trade series
BUILT FOR VISUAL THINKING
Change the assumptions without losing the idea.
Working-session recovery
Your local workspace recovers after restart, including unfinished Scenario work, without silently publishing it.
Saved Series
Keep individual Trade and Elliott setups in a reusable library and load independent working copies.
THE WORKFLOW
From idea to saved Scenario.
1
Plot
Create a standalone Trade or Elliott series directly on the chart.
2
Combine
Create a Scenario and add independent copies that belong to that possibility.
3
Explore
Move nodes, alter counts and change sizing without changing the source series.
4
Commit
Save when you want that Scenario to become the shared version across WITC charts.
＋ EnlargeSAVE THE WORK THAT MATTERS
Work across charts and timeframes.
Working Session automatically recovers the workspace for that WITC instance. Saved Series are deliberate reusable Trade or Elliott snapshots. Saved Scenarios are committed versions of complete market ideas.
The distinction is deliberate: unfinished work survives a restart without accidentally becoming the version seen by another chart.
