Upgrade your documentantion
20 Aug 2017, 08:00


Currently I have to use Visusal studio's autocomplete to figure out what the types are the values being returned by many of your functions.

The documention is not very usefull aside from the most simple of operations and examples. Even then the specificatoin is to simple.

Random example: /api/reference/indicators/ichimokukinkohyo

None of the values listed in the documentation above when clicked on actually state the 'type' of those values?
Nor is there an explanation as to what those values mean and at least on same basic principle - how they are calculated comapred to curreent price.  

Tbf cAlgo documention is one of the biggest downfalls if the entire API. 

Devil's in the details - would be nice if you folks coudl fix this.

Dear ngoccuong9xhb,

Thanks for posting your suggestion in our forum. It is in our immediate plans to improve the cAlgo.API documentation with more information and more meaningful examples. However documentation is a never ending process and the provided examples will never be able to cover all possible usages of the API. Therefore, we aim to fill any gaps through this community. If there is any specific question you have or if you need an example of usage for any of the API classes, please let us know to provide it to you.

Best Regards,

cTrader Team
