How do I do that? When my backtest finishes, I am unable to change the timeframe on the backtest tab, the options are greyed out. Changing the timeframe under the Algo left panel does not update the backtest window timeframe either.

 

Hi there,

It looks like a bug. You should be able to change it from the instance.

Best regards,

Hi Tarek,

One of the changes in cTrader 5.0 is that the data for all passes is kept. So if your cBot is printing too much information in the log, this could eventually hinder the performance of optimization

Hi there,

No it does not include swaps and commissions. If you need them, you would need to develop your own methods.

Hi there,

This is by design. If the price jumps more that one bar, then the method is only executed once for the last bar.

Hi there,

There is nothing cTrader specific here. Pip size is determined by the broker and the platform behaves accordingly.

Hi Cnicholasdownie,

No this is not possible and we do not have plans to add such an option. You cannot change the chart timeframe while the cBot is running.

Panagiotis, what about after the visual backtest has finished? Technically the bot is not running anymore, so why are we not able to change the timeframe then, but keep the backtest trade history?

After the backtest finishes it is possible to change the timeframe

Hi

OK.

But, I mean that how to look the “error log of cTrader”, to find the reason for frequent disconnections.

Thanks

There is no such log available to you

Hi there,

See the correct formula below

        private double CalculateSwap(double swap, double volume)
        { 
            return AssetConverter.Convert(Symbol.SwapLong * Symbol.PipSize * volume, Symbol.QuoteAsset, Account.Asset ); 
        }

I'm using it on line 27. It doesn't work. I tried also to put it into the while loop until the history is bigger than N, and it just goes forever.

Hi there,

You can use LoadMoreHistory() to load more data.

This method only works in backtesting in v5.0
