Hi Mr4x,

See below

            if (Positions.Where(x => x.TradeType == TradeType.Sell).Sum(p => p.NetProfit) > 150)
            {
                foreach (var position in Positions.Where(x => x.TradeType == TradeType.Sell))
                {
                    ClosePosition(position);
                }
            }

Hi Mr4x,

See below an example of how to check for Net Profit on sell positions only

            if (Account.Equity >= Account.Balance + Positions.Where(x => x.TradeType == TradeType.Sell).Sum(p => p.NetProfit))
            {
                foreach (var position in Positions)
                {
                    ClosePosition(position);
                }
            }

Hi chernish2,

It is not possible at the moment but new methods will be introduced in 3.7 that will allow you to do that.

Hi edoardo.ferretto99,

I would suggest to check the current suggestions before posting a new one. The suggestion for cTrader Desktop on Mac exists and it has a lot of votes as well. There is no point of creating a another one.

Hi hackmushroom,

DrawRectangle and generally all Draw methods take DateTime type as input for the X axis. So to achieve what you need, you need to plot the rectangle x dimensions on the exact time the bars starts/ends e.g. the h1 bar is drawn at approximately -25/+25 minutes.

Hi clauberthsb,

We will need more information in order to help you. Do you run any custom cBots/indicators? Do you have any drawings on the chart? If yes, does the situation improve if you remove/stop all these added components?

Best Regards,

Hi Nick,

Index is just an array index, nothing more. Since MarketSeries from different timeframes might have values for different times on the same index, you need to map the index of one Market series to the other. This is achieved with the following method

gbpusd.OpenTime.GetIndexByExactTime(MarketSeries.OpenTime[index])

In this case, the method gets the opening time at an index of the current MarketSeries and returns the index for the same time for the gbpusd market series.

Best Regards,

Hi Nick,

The symbol is hardcoded

var gbpusd = MarketData.GetSeries("GBPUSD", Frame);

Do you change that before running on GBPJPY?

Hi Robert,

It in not a this way vs the other way case. It is just an extra feature that is missing. While we understand that this is a handy feature for traders, by adding this will we will have to load the server with even more tasks i.e. checking all positions if and when should the TSL kick in, which translates into having to allocate more resources on our side. It always boils down to finding the balance between features and efficiency. And since this is an easy feature to be programmed into a cBot and be managed on the client side, we chose not to include it as a built in feature for the moment.

Hi Samuel,

This happens because you are using the actual price as a stop loss. Stop loss should be set in pips instead.

Dear Trader,

The Trailing Stop Loss now resides on the server, it works when cTrader is closed. You can apply it when creating an order. It has also been simplified, please enter the number of pips it should trail the spot price for, and it will move every pip.

 

Hi,

 

Are there any plans to have actual settings for the trailing SL, separate from the regular SL (as the whole point is with this,
as somebody explained in their example. So the trailing SL gets triggered once the regular SL price or % or pips change is hit)?

Right now, you have trailing giant stoploss at the size of your regular stoploss as there's only 1 stoploss setting..

 

Hi Robert,

We do not have such plans at the moment.
