In the meantime, does any one know the easiest way to get the exchange rate between quote currency and deposit currency so I can do my own calc and not get blocked by asset converter?
Hi there,
The issue was reproduced and will be fixed in an upcoming update.
Best regards,
Panagiotis
spectacular, thanks so much! Is there away i can work around this in the mean time?
Unfortunately there is no easy workaround
fair enough, do you have an idea how far out the update is?
Unfortunately I do not have an ETA for the update
Hi Panagiotis, just checking back in and see if there's any sign of this update been released soon, or if you know when?
thanks, Glenn
Hi Glenn,
It will be released soon but I do not have a date to provide unfortunately.
Please provide us with the exact steps you follow to reproduce this behavior so that we can explain what happens. If you can record a video, it would be helpful.
Best regards,
Panagiotis
Here you go. the indicator is a simple EMA. When switching timeframes, sometimes it reloads itself 3 times, sometimes 2, sometimes just once.
This doesn't seem to address the inconsistencies between the different Windows versions, it shouldn't crash this way.
Besides, is there other way to put this control above the ask line besides negative margin? I will try with Canvas Top/Bottom and get back when I'm able to test it.
I have seen other size and margin inconsistencies that are not using negative margins, if possible to replicate I'll attach it here.
Thanks for your reply.

Hi Waxy,
The inconsistency is in the behavior of the OS, not of cTrader. The one version supports negative numbers, the other does not. We can't do something about this at the moment except of also disabling the option for the one that works, for the sake of consistency. You should use the y parameter to place the control where you need it.
We can't do this since the funds are not actually held by cTrader but by your broker.
Best regards,
Panagiotis
you can add the functionality and let the broker decide if he wants to implement it. Most professional traders have some sort of rules about withdrawals and can benefit from automating it.
We can't because there is nothing related to this in cTrader. If the broker wants to give you access to their deposit/withdawal workflow, they can do it through their own APIs
Please provide us with the exact steps you follow to reproduce this behavior so that we can explain what happens. If you can record a video, it would be helpful.
Price feeds are a responsibility of the broker. Please talk to them.
Regarding the dates, months change on UTC+3 timezone. So if you want to see the starting date as the first day of the month, you need to change your timezone to UTC+3.
This happens because you only assign values to indicator data series, when the index of each higher timeframe changes. Hence for the rest of the array elements the value stays NaN. The solution to this depends on what you want to achieve. For example, why do you
Thank you for your reply. I want to test my GMMA strategy with multi-timeframe.
My cBot staretegy is 1hour resolution and should be able to access to the above custom indicator(multi-timeframe GMMA)'s TimeFrame.Hour4 Last(n) values.
Can you me an example on how to code this correctly?
Hi there,
I am sorry but I cannot write the code for you. If you have specific questions, I am happy to answer them. At the moment I do not see a reason to leave the data series values to NaN.

Panagiotis
Hello Panagiotis,
What do you mean by “At the moment I do not see a reason to leave the data series values to NaN.” ?
I made some mistakes in my code?
Can you share the cBot code as well so that I can tell you exactly where the problem is?
Hi Panagiotis,
Yes, I can share the cBot code to you.
here it is.

Hi there,
Here is a visualization of your problem using the debugger
Your Indicator data series have NaN values because you do not assign anything to them when the time does not match the higher timeframe time. Hence the problems in your logic.
I do not understand why you have created a separate indicator for this and have to manage all this complexity. You could just initialize the moving averages inside your cBot and use them.
Best regards,
Panagiotis
Hi Panagiotis,
Thank you for the screenshot. I see the problem now.
I changed my cBot code as following and it seems to print higher time frame values correctly.
However, how can I display, for example, this _longEma2 onto my bachtest chart?
It's not possible to add them on the chart from the cBot but you could use your GMMA indicator for this purpose
Hi Panagiotis,
So, in this my case scenario, we need to use my custom GMMA indicator during backtest.
The problem is how to solve the NaN values things.
I'd like to get TimeFrame.Hour4 moviing average values in my 1 hour backtest resolution.
How can I do this correctly?

No you just need to use for visualization purposes. To solve the NaN issue requires some complicated code to be written. I cannot provide you guidance except than actually writing the code for, something I cannot afford to do at the moment.
