Bots stop working on restart, instances disappear, "chart not found" - SOLVED!!!
18 Dec 2024, 12:03


Hello everyone, I just wanted to say that with the latest version 5.0.50.35915, half of my bots stopped working when I restarted ctrader, and the instances of each bot disappeared.

In the Journal tab a message appeared saying that “x” bot had not been restarted because “chart not found”.

I discovered that the problem was that the names of those particular bots contained at least one comma.

What I did was remove the comma from all the bot names in the folders and now everything works correctly.
Just to keep in mind in case the same thing happened to someone.

Also, so that it doesn't happen to anyone else, I think that in future updates perhaps the use of commas and other symbols in file names could be allowed.

Best regards,

Santiago
