The strategy is Wriggle.
My broker is TopFX. Leverage is 1:1000.
Below are screenshots of my positions with equity graph
Below are screenshots of the strategy provider positions and his equity graph
Hi there,
Your screenshots do not display the volume not a one to one comparison of the trades showing the difference in volume you are referring to. Please provide such a comparison so that we can see clearly what you are referring to.

All the trades that are on the screenshots have mismatch equity ratio.
Here is an example:
On this trade he is loosing more than i do(around 40%)
Here is another example where he is winning more than i do.
Should the wining and losing ratio between my position and strategy provider positions be the same as our equity ratio ???
Hi there,
You still haven't shared the volume so I can't know why there is a difference. There are several reasons that cause discrepancies in copying, I list them below
Differences between your positions' entry and closing prices and those of the strategy provider
Differences in the size of your positions compared to those of the strategy provider
Variations in the commissions you pay to your broker compared to those of the strategy provider
The possibility that your broker does not offer the same trading symbols used in the strategy
Insufficient margin in your account to copy some of the orders executed in the strategy
Differences in the stop out levels, which might cause your account to be stopped out, while the strategy provider continues to trade
I do not have an easy solution for you, also forcing the entire application to shut down does not sound like a very elegant solution. What is the exact problem you are trying to solve here?

When attempting to click on "Modify Position," there's no response or display. The same issue occurs when trying to click on "Modify Order" for Pending Orders. Overall, the "Modify" function isn't functioning.
Hi there,
Make sure the form does not open on an external display that has been disconnected. Try also restarting cTrader and your pc.
I was able to use the API System.Environment.Exit(0);
to shutdown ctrader in the earlier versions of ctrader, but in the new version 4.8, using this API is only shutting down the cBot but not the entire cTrader.
My requirement is to shutdown the entire instance of cTrader. Is there an API I could use in version 4.8 of ctrader to accomplish this.
Please let me know,
Thanks in advance.
cBots now run in separate processes. If you want to close cTrader, you need to find the process and kill it
You can also use cTrader CLI to interact externally with cBots.
Hi,
The API System.Environment.Exit(0);
which in version 4.0 use to shutdown the entire ctrader is now only shutting down the cbot and the cbot is restarting after shutting down.
Is there any API now, which I could use to shutdown that very instance of cTrader, like I was able to do in the older versions with the above API.
Please let me know as this is critical for me, my instance of ctrader is running many instances of a third party cBot which I want to shutdown before the market close (I dont want to close any position, I just want the cBots to shutdown that is why I had been shutting down cTrader itself with the above API).
Thanks.

I think there is also a huge issue on the lot calculation on the FOREX. I tried the function on GBPUSD
For an account of $1.000.000 and 10 pips Stop Loss, the function Symbol.VolumeForProportionalRisk proposed me to buy 2.500.00 lots which is by far too much…
But when I trued to reverse it with the function Symbol.AmountRisked, it says that I risk $2.500 which is the right number because my risk is 0.25% of the balance.
But obviously, it is not the risk that I have for 2.500.000 lots with a 10pips Stop Loss.
I can't even put a trade with that figures…
Is it also a but? When do you expect to fix it?
Thank you
protected override void OnStart()
{
Print("Symbol "+ Symbol.Name);
Print("Pip size "+Symbol.PipSize);
Print("Account Balance " + Account.Balance);
Print("Volume to risk for SL 10pips " + Symbol.VolumeForProportionalRisk( ProportionalAmountType.Balance, RiskPerTrade, 10));
Print("Amount risked for Volume 2 500 000 with SL 10pips " + Symbol.AmountRisked(Symbol.VolumeForProportionalRisk( ProportionalAmountType.Balance, RiskPerTrade, 10), 10));
