RE:

AlexanderRC said:

Spotware, are there any short term plans to support multisymbol cBots in backtesting?

There are some support internally as commission for the same volume for pairs like GBPCAD are different on different days in backtesting, so cross rates to the account currency (USD in my case) are properly accounted for, so they should be downloaded and stored from the server already. Thus, implementing multi currency cBots backtesting should be a couple of steps away.

Caching tick/minute bars data on first invocation of GetSymbol() would be ok for the selected period of backtest so that backtesting engine would not cache all possible symbols present in the broker's cTrader after the user clicks the play button. If caching in the middle of the backtest run requires too many internal changes, you may add UI with a list of checkboxes and the user would have to select which pairs would be used in the backtest or optimization. If the data has not been explicitly cached for the symbol requested via GetSymbol() you may throw an exception. Adding UI for currencies would also cater for data in CSV files, they can be loaded individually for the respective symbols or the format of CSV could be enhanced to include the symbol in each line of the file.

Dear AlexanderRC,

Thank you for your suggestions. Probably we will implement first version of multisymbol backtesting in very similar way with that you described. However multisymbol backtesting is not in our short term road map.

Dear Trader,

For converting the above code you need to use the Account object and the Symbol object.

You can create your own class for representing data series in your tests. It must implement cAlgo.API.IndicatorDataSeries interface.

Dear Trader,

OnPositionOpened and OnPositionClosed methods are obsolete. You can use them only with old trading API available through the Trade object. If you use new trading API (ExecuteMarketOrder, ClosePosition, etc.) you cannot use OnPositionOpened and OnPositionClosed. Subscribe to events of the Positions object instead.
