RE: How to generate the .pwd file for the CLI commands ?

driftingprogrammer said: 

Does the CLI work? Is anyone using it? 

I started my cBot as an external process and it works fine. 

But when I copy the exact same command and try to invoke it from the command prompt by first going to the folder where we have the ctrader-cli.exe I get an error saying the password file needs to be specified. 

When I specify the password file which is a text file with my password it continues to say password file could not be found. I tried all formats of specifying the path but no luck, I always sayd password file not found.

 

Can someone give me an example of a command with the password file specified that works.

 

For me even a simple command like 

 

ctrader-cli.exe symbols --ctid=email@yahoo.com --pwd-file=C:/Users/Administrator/Documents/password.pwd

 

does not work. I am using ICMarkets broker.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi there,

Can you share screenshots showing where the password file is and the exact message you receive?

Good day,

 

I have both Mac and Windows

Here is the results this morning from my Mac 

 

And from my Windows server

 

The only difference I can see with your screenshot is the PipSize…

 

Can you please advise your broker and cTrader version?

RE: Rectangular Box Adjust

jdharmasena said: 

In Ctrader mobile you can set the price of a upper and lower level of a rectangle. But I could not find it in the desktop version.

There is no such option on the desktop at the moment.

True in your case it is perfectly fine. 

But look at my results for the same code on a Demo account

I have no idea why I get the weird results…

Dear cTrader Team,

There is no “my case”.

As you might have noticed, the code sample provided above was only intended to report an issue.

My question was obviously generic.

Thanks for clarifying the community on this by providing an effective answer. It would be also of value to see documentation on this available.

 

 

Hello is there news on this ? I have the same issue.. When I backtest in Visual mode it is not the same results than in not visual..

Hi, any news? I have the same issue. I don't know how reliable my code is. The visual mode shows a fairly large negative value, while the silent mode shows positive value of the same magnitude.

Hi there,

See my response above.

Hi there,

We still need information on how to reproduce this (Symbol, timeframe, dates) so that we can advise.

Best regards,

Panagiotis

the symbols are eurusd, gbpusd starting from 7/11/2022 utc+2 5min timeframe.
on eurousd the 161st trade

on gbpusd the 3247th and 3311th trade

 

Trade 161 looks correct to me

mine is like this

could it be that you have different data? i'm using fusion market as broker, 22.5 per million as commission or 2.25 per lot, 4.5 roundturn

Hi there,

The problem in your logic is here

                if (LastResult.Position.GrossProfit > 0)
                {
                    _lastVolume = 1000;
                    _lastTradeType = LastResult.Position.TradeType;
                    _doubleCount = 0;
                }
                else if ( LastResult.Position.GrossProfit < 0)
                {
                    VolAmount();
                    _lastTradeType = LastResult.Position.TradeType == TradeType.Buy ? TradeType.Sell : TradeType.Buy;
                }

You are determining the size of the next trade based on an open position's profit, which changes on each tick. You should check historical trades using the History collection instead.

RE: Read nested/added positions

swapd0 said: 

Maybe on Monday I can capture some screen shots when the market is open.

I mean that, if I buy one lot of XAGUSD at 27.000$ and later when the silver is at 27.100$ I double the position. In cTrader web I got one position on XAGUSD with two lots at 27.050$

 

But if I send a ProtoOAReconcileReq message I receive two positions, one at 27.000$ with one lot and another one at 27.100$ with one lot. 

Hi swapd0,

If you are looking to modify a position, then you should add the position id in your ProtoOANewOrderReq message

Hi there,

It could be anything e.g. slippage or an issue in your cBot's logic. First of all make sure you are backtesting using tick data. Then compare trades one by one to spot what is the difference (entry price, commissions and swaps, something else?)
