I have a very safe and productive, high velocity, high volume, trading robot that runs on MetaTrader 4 and I want to convert it to run on cAlgo.

My program initially opens, at current prices and then maintains an inventory of hundreds or thousands of hedged open positions, simultaneously on multiple symbols on a single account.  The number of open positions depends on the amount of money in the account.

Positions are closed at specific take profit levels and replacement positions are opened immediately at the current price after the closings.

So far I cannot find robot samples or information that lead me to believe that creating such a robot for cAlgo is possible.  I am not an experienced C# programmer.  Please let me know if you think such a robot is possible for cAlgo.

I am developing on Windows 10, using Visual Studio Community 2015, update 2 in C#.  The VSIX installer reports that it is unable to install on the Visual Studio product I am using so I cannot edit using Visual Studio from within cAlgo.

Take a look at the url below, also what you are asking should be possible if you get the design correct.

Thanks Paul, much appreciated.  The design, as you said, is critical because it involves some structure not usually included in a robot.
