Success Story: Thomas Sparrow - From His First Custom Indicator to Advanced AI Tools on cTrader
From a pandemic necessity to premium trading solutions, Thomas’s story shows what’s possible on cTrader Store — from simple indicators to AI-powered tools trusted by traders worldwide
When Thomas, an independent developer and trader based in the Canary Islands, turned to trading during the pandemic, it was out of necessity rather than ambition. The global situation left him without job opportunities, and returning to his previous profession was no longer an option.
“When job opportunities disappeared and returning to my previous profession was no longer viable, I decided to apply my skills to technical analysis.”
With over two decades of experience in programming, data analysis, and application development, Thomas saw trading as a new challenge - one where he could use his technical expertise to create his own path. What started as a way to adapt soon became a passion and a growing business.
First steps on cTrader
He began by learning from books, articles, and YouTube videos but soon realized that understanding the market required a personal approach.
“No matter how well something is explained, what truly matters is how I personally understand it.”
Exploring cTrader’s standard indicators inspired him to develop his own:
- 4MA - four moving averages in one window for a cleaner chart.
- Order Price - highlights signals from supporting indicators (Stochastic, MACD, RSI, CCI) directly on the main chart; paired with a simplified version of 4MA (three lines).
- Supporting tools: TSPivotPoint, RangeBoxFibonacci (auto-adjusting with the market), Market Session MX (visualizing key trading sessions).
His flagship product is HAI Quantum V10, an advanced technical analysis suite with integrated AI chat.
“It’s like having a personal trading coach. Many beginners spend large amounts of money on courses without gaining practical insights. With HAI Quantum V10, I wanted to give them a way to learn and trade with clarity and confidence - at home, at their own pace.”
Over time, his products have grown significantly in value - evolving from simple, affordable tools to premium, professional-grade solutions.
Experience with cTrader
Thomas highlights cTrader’s role in his growth:
“My experience with cTrader has been extremely positive. The team is always responsive and helpful - whether it’s resolving doubts, offering guidance, or providing technical support. Their openness and collaboration have been key to my development.”
A journey of growth
From his first experiments with moving averages to an AI-powered analysis suite, Thomas’s journey shows how far individual developers can go when they have the right tools and support.
He started with products priced at just $7, and today he sells advanced solutions for up to $98.
“cTrader gave me the flexibility to create what I needed - and the encouragement to keep improving. That made all the difference.”
Since his very first withdrawal of over $500, Thomas treated himself to a more technologically advanced phone - a reminder of how tangible the results can be.
Today, his paid and free products have been downloaded almost 8,000 times by traders around the world, and his story continues to inspire others to turn their ideas into reality on cTrader Store.
