I also have very frequent and quite long disconnections at my VPS (cTrader with Pepperstone disconnects from forexvps.net, even though the latency is 0.4 ms).

At home, my cAlgo requires a restart after a couple of Optimization runs.  The support here at this forum explained it saying that I have frequent disconnections due to viruses, or maybe some other applications use the network bandwidth. It's not true, of course. I don't have any viruses.

I think the problem lies with cTrader/cAlgo. The creators of these programs just refuse to recognize this problem and delete messages from the web forum where users complain about it.

I have the same problem. myfxbook has not updated for 24 hours. Delays of 3-4 hours are very common, they happen every day.

Hello, can someone please help me i want exact 5 dollars profit for all positions algo,

needs to close all positions sometimes 6 open it needs to be exact don't want to have to change any parameters or anything it would really help me thankyou

I just want to be able to creat new algo paste your algo and then play , i tried others but it think it was left to a bit to myself to put unrealised profit here or there it doesn't work.

 

I just want 5 dollars profit for all positions close profit for all positions thanks

Would something like:

 

bool c1 = Account.Equity > Account.Balance + 5;

 

if (c1) 

{

//close all positions here!?!

}

Hello that would be great but not account ballance, i have like 6 open at one time so close on net profit on ctrader, not account balance 5 dollars unless it means the same thing?

I advise you to learn how to use https://quant.fxpro.co.uk/app/ 
It's a visual strategy builder, you can build your strategy rules there and export the results as a code into cAlgo. It's very simple to implement your idea using this method.

Does anybody else have the same problem as me?

I don't have any viruses in my computer, there are no programs using Internet and my bandwidth is 2 Mbit/sec.

I think the problem is in the way cAlgo uses memory or cache... Maybe it expires or overfills?

Dear ironmine,

As you can see in the Journal you are getting disconnected because your connection is broken or it's very slow. We kindly ask you to check your internet connection with your ISP and check your computer for viruses or even other programs that use a large amount of your Internet connection.

Ok, thanks. I will check it.

Dear Trader,

Could you please also send us your cAlgo journal to support@ctrader.com or post it somewhere and provide us with a link? The journal is located in:

C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\cAlgo\Journals\%BROKERNAME%

I sent to the e-mail address you mentioned above the zip file containing my cAlgo journals.

RE: RE:

Any solution?

Currently, I test 3-4 times and then have to wait for 6-7 minutes to reload the same data again from the server. Test 3-4 times, and then wait again. So, 90% of time is waiting and only 10% is actual testing.  I tried both my demo and live account, the result is the same.

only One Chart.

Why do you think so?

When I attach this bot to one chart, it releases some memory (400 MB), then I immediately attach it to another chart and I see that it again releases a lot of memory again, almost as much as in the first time. And this happens on every chart...

Can please somebody tell me: I want to use Memory Manager Bot Robot (/algos/cbots/show/942). Do I need to attach it to EACH opened chart, or attaching this cBot to only one chart is enough? Thank you!

Also, I have a cBot which I created on my home computer. I can see the code of this cBot in cAlgo software installed on my home computer.

But, when I copy the file (.calgo) to my VPS and install it there, I cannot see the code in cAlgo software installed on my VPS. WHY?

ironmine
24 Jan 2016, 04:38

I have the same problem. Some cBots shows the message (in cAlgo): "The source code is not available". Other cBots (exactly the same cBots, created at exactly the same time, but with a different name and designed to work on a different currency pair) do not show this message.

What should I do? Hot to fix it?

Hello

Are there any plans to offer a service to cTrader users similar to https://quant.fxpro.co.uk/app/ ? So we could build our strategies visually.

Thanks.

Yes, Its a great idea for all users on cTraders.

David Becquer.

Basically, I am happy with the above mentioned quant fxpro, but I wish they would offer more indicators... The current choice is quite limited.

You can manually type in this field ("starting capital") any number you need.

Dear Trader,

We tried to reproduce your issue without success.

Could you please provide us with more information and the steps to reproduce it?

Any information could be useful to us, regarfsddless if it doesn't seem to be important.

I don't want to try to reproduce it. But it may be linked to this problem:

When placing a cBot one a chart, if the symbol or the time of the chart does not coincide with the parameters of the cBot being installed (for example, you try to install a cBot designed for 8 hour time frame on 1 hour time frame), it gives a warning (that time frames do not coincide) and suggests to either move the cBot to the correct chart and to ignore the warning. If you choose to move the cBot to the correct chart, it will open the appropriate chart and the cBot will be placed there. So far, so good. BUT... the first chart will remain open (with no cBot) and it becomes impossible to close it. The close button is not active.

Please let the users unlink trading accounts from CTID.  Why you stubbornly refuse to implement this simple feature requested by many already?

There is also this bug: cBots sometimes don't remember there settings after your log out of your account and/or restart cTrader.

When I restarted cTrader first time, I checked the parameters of my cBots, there were ok (as I set them last time), so I just activated the cBots.

Second time I had to restart cTrader, I thought that the cBots remember the parameters again, it was 02:00 am and I wanted to sleep very much, so I activated the cBots without checking their values.

On the next day I decided to see what's going on VPS. One position was opened but it had no stop loss. my hair nearly went grey when I saw it. All my cBots should set Stop Losses. That's how I set them up. So, how was it possible?  As it turned out, the cBots were running in their blank state (with default settings).

So, check your cBots settings before you activate them.
