Hi,
There are a few months already. Can we get an estimated date for backtesting in macOS?
Thanks!
Unfortunately we do not have an ETA at the moment.

Hi there,
Your question is not clear. Please explain what you think is wrong and how you would like it to be corrected.

hi, the code written as follows is not correct and I don't understand how to fix it. I used " Indicator.GetIndicator<> " as it is a custom indicator. I removed ".Result " but I need to manage the value of Result somewhere...
Does the indicator have a Result property? Can you share the indicator's source code?

RE: RE: Bot stops working after Reconnect

Hello everyone
I have the same problem, my bots (running on ctrader-cli) stop once a week without visible reason, with or without lost connection. I help myself with writing timestamps to a logfile and having a watchdog process, that restarts the cbot when the log entries don't occure anymore.
Greetings
scherli
I've been experiencing this almost every morning when I check the CLI processes.
“Attempting to reconnect” while everything else is still open and running. CTrader open and connected, MT5 connected and running.
@Spotware can you please have a look at this?
Hi there,
We would need more information regarding this matter. Also this seems to be a separate issue so please do the following
- Create a new thread with a clear explanation of your issue
- Provide your cBot code.
- Provide us with exact steps on how to reproduce this problem.
Best regards,
Panagiotis

RE: RE: referencing an custom Indicator

Hi xabbu,
You are passing wrong parameters in the indicator. Here is the correct way to initialize it
_sma = Indicators.GetIndicator<SampleSMA>(MarketData.GetBars(TimeFrame.Daily).ClosePrices, 14);
Best Regards,
Panagiotis
Hi Panagiotis,
is there a particular indicator calculation order or could we influence it, e.g. by priorities?
In the example mentioned above the custom indicator “NNFXInfosonChart” uses the values of custom indicator “SampleSMA”, but how we can make sure that SampleSMA.LastValue is belonging to current Index (Index of NNFXInfosonChart.Calculation(THIS_INDEX)) and not to the previous index when retrieved in NNFXInfosonChart.Calculation-method?
Thank you so much.
Best regards,
Bernhard
LastValue is always the value of the last index, since the Calculate() method is called when you call the property.

RE: RE: Help: indicator plots different on historical data and in backtesting!

Hi there,
Calculate() method is called once per bar for historical bars and once per tick for live bars. The part below will behave differently when the method is called once per bar, compared to once per tick
if ((Bars.ClosePrices[index] > DLagEMAs[index] && Bars.ClosePrices[index - 1] < DLagEMAs[index - 1]) || (Bars.ClosePrices[index] < DLagEMAs[index] && Bars.ClosePrices[index - 1] > DLagEMAs[index - 1])) { barsSinceEvent = 0; } else { barsSinceEvent++; }
You need to rethink your logic and make sure this part is called only once for each bar.
Best regards,

Thanks for your response, I really did my best several ways but couldnt solve it yet, can you suggest anyway to do it!
You can use a parameter that registers at which index the last addition was made and not call that part of the code until the index changes.

PanagiotisCharalampous said:
Hi there,
In order to identify to which request the response is related to, you need to use tag 11. Tag 41 is about identifying the order to be amended.
I see OrigClOrdID and the ClOrdID fields being echoed by CSERVER
I don't see where is OrigClOrdID sent back to you and it should not. I only see ClOrdID. OrigClOrdID should have been sent to you when the order was executed.

You can see I place an order, modify it, but the string
this_is_the_request_id
is only present in my modify request, the response doesn't contain that string.Maybe/Probably I still misunderstand something, I would be happy if you let me know what is this about, thank you very much!
