Hi Xavier,

What you are trying to do is not supported. The proper way to read output attributes is the below

            PropertyInfo[] props = typeof(TestOutputAttributes).GetProperties();
            foreach (PropertyInfo prop in props)
            {
                object[] attrs = prop.GetCustomAttributes(true);
                foreach (object attr in attrs)
                {
                    OutputAttribute outputAttr = attr as OutputAttribute;
                    if (outputAttr != null)
                    {
                        Print(outputAttr.LineColor.ToString());
                    }
                }
            }

Best Regards,

Panagiotis

Hi thamimsibi3,

Thanks for the clarification, that was not very clear.

See below the cBot based on your clarification

//
//    This code is a cAlgo API sample.
//
//    This cBot is intended to be used as a sample and does not guarantee any particular outcome or
//    profit of any kind. Use it at your own risk
//
//    The "Sample Martingale cBot" creates a random Sell or Buy order. If the Stop loss is hit, a new 
//    order of the same type (Buy / Sell) is created with double the Initial Volume amount. The cBot will 
//    continue to double the volume amount for  all orders created until one of them hits the take Profit. 
//    After a Take Profit is hit, a new random Buy or Sell order is created with the Initial Volume amount.

Hi ryan.a.blake,

As the name indicates Spotware Beta is a beta version of cTrader. So usually it is one or two versions ahead. After properly tested and stabilized it is released to brokers.

Hi astevani,

This is an old thread. Do you still experience the issue of indicators displaying differently on normal chart and on a backtesting chart? If yes, can you share one to check?

Hi a.fernandez.martinez,

Here is an example

            var series = MarketData.GetSeries(TimeFrame.Minute);
            Print(series.TickVolume.LastValue);

Hi Nasser, 

The information is not enough for somebody to help you. Please provide us with the following

1) The complete cBot code.

2) The parameters you use to run the code.

3) The parameters you use for the displayed indicators.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis

Hi erikvb,

It seems we have different indicators and it crashes on parameter initialization.You need to change the initialization of the indicator to the following

_hmaSignal = Indicators.GetIndicator<HMASignals>(Periods,false,false,1,false,1);

In principle it is unless it is blocked. Paul Hayes has written a nice article about this.

Hi guys,

I tried to reproduce the problem but could not. If you can isolate the issue into a smaller indicator with more specific reproduction steps I can take another look.

Hi Jeziel,

This is because the indicator recalculates its values when zoom is changed from the code. When changed from the interface, you need to handle this change yourself, as my solution did.

Hi a.fernandez.martinez,

No there is no such feature. A cBot operates on a single chart.

Hello, Thanks for the update.
"Load Parameters" for a cbot doesn't work when dealing with custom enums, as even if the parameter is saved in the .cbotset file, when loading from it an error message appears and the first option is always selected. 

Hi gakazas,

Thans for letting us know about this. We will investigate it.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis
