Dear trader,

The error indicates that your system has run out of memory. What is your computer's physical and virtual RAM? Is paging file enabled? If no, please enable it.

I changed it to 80000 mb.

 

I hope this is correct. Please let me know if it's not correct.

Thank you for your reply. 

Cpu is amd ryzen 5 5600H. 12 logical processors. 

8 Gb of RAM only. 

I should add more RAM I know. 

I bought this computer not long ago because the cpu is quite fast. I only use it for optimizing my bots. 

I haven't added any virtual RAM from my hard drive. I will do so today and enable paging file. 

 

Thank you very much cTrader team. 

I was wondering why I don't get many errors on my other better gaming computer.

RE:

 

Aint nobody wanna answer my question? I was ignored many times by now asking simple questions in cTrader forum.

 

If I give my cBot without the source code to some people for them to test my cBot, can they somehow hack it and get the source code?

RE: RE: Build with Source Code

Symposium said:

Hi Pro Trader, You have to Build your Algo's with the Build with Source Code tab... This will make the code editable on other computers...

The code is available in text form (open in Notepad) in the *.cs file inside the Algo's project folder...

Hope this is of help...

 

Hi Symposium . I only want my original cBot to have the source code and only I will use it on my computer.

My question was for the duplicate of my cBot without the source code - If I give it to my friend for him to use it, can he somehow use some software or something to hack it and see the source code?

Hello

Please add the email and push notification alert when the cBot opens or closes a position.

I would love to have this.  This way I do not have to check my phone so often when I am not at home to see if I have any positions open - if the cBot has new open positions running.

 

Thank you.

 

(I also have some cBots without the Stop Loss and the Take Profit orders - The positions close and open on the opposite signal)

Hello

I have a problem. I only get this error when I try to click on the trading account where I am a Strategy Provider. And after getting this error I can't even use it or change / move between the trading accounts.

I have to restart the cTrader for it to be able to even use it again. - I can only use it If I do not click on the trading account where I am a Strategy Provider.

 

Only going to the cTrader Desktop COPY section without clicking anything then:

 

Clicking my trading account where I AM NOT a Strategy Provider WORKS FINE:

 

Clicking the trading account where I am a Strategy Provider (It crashes. I get an error. For the last 3 days.)

I DID NOT CLICK ON IT YET . Just showing you which one.

 

Now I click on the trading account where I am a Strategy Provider and I get this message. ERROR

Hello

Please cTrader add this into the Optimization Criteria. I want the curve to be as 'constant' and as nice as possible  from beginning to the end.

I tried the Sharp ratio and Sortino ratio but it is not the same..

Thank you very much for the possibility to trade on the most advanced trading platform. I can't even imagine to trade without the cTrader!

Screenshot of what I wish:

See the green line? This is the Optimization Criteria I would really like to have. I know it depends on the cBot and how it performs,.. I am talking about having a criteria for this.

 

 

FOR EXAMPLE THIS ONE LOOKS QUITE GOOD. I wish there was a criteria in the Optimization for this.

Hello

 

Please make it possible for us to make the lower indicator window smaller or bigger. Now it comes with only one size we can't make it 'lower' / smaller.

The indicator window takes too much space in the cTrader mobile app.

Thank you

 

Best regards

Hello.

I see you made some changes in cTrader WEB in cTader Copy - Strategy Settings Description

Now when I add a photo in the description I can not change the size anymore. I wish you make this possible again.

When I try to insert a link it does not work. No link appears in the description.

 

Best regards

Hi,

1.

Does anyone know why must the computer be connected to the internet also during the optimization program the whole time after the chart has been already loaded for the specific history time?

Isn't it enough for the optimization program to load the history of the chart when connected and then it runs through different parameter settings without the internet?

The optimization takes a long time. I leave my computer at home but sometimes my internet freezes (I have to reset the router) It is really annoying when I come home and the optimization program hasn't made much progress.

-It also happens many times that although the laptop is connected to internet the whole time, the optimization program just stops and it hasn't finished at all. It was saying it needs about 1 day or 2 days more to complete the optimization but then it just stops optimizing in the middle by itself.

My cBot has no errors. Build succeed.

I am running the cTrader optimization program almost 24/7 for the last 3 months because I want to try different cBots on different brokers. I hope there is no limit to this.

 

2.

Does anyone know why I get very different results using the IC Markets cTrader and FTMO cTrader using the same cBot with the same parameter settings in backtesting?

The spread on the eur/usd or aud/usd is not very different. FMTO has a bigger spread by 0.02 pip or so..

For example, I get a very nice curve and the max equity drawdown is very small (15%) on IC Markets using the same cBot - while on FTMO cTrader the cBot destroys my accounts balance and the curve looks terrible.

RE:

I have the same problem. Sometimes my IC Markets cTrader works 10 minutes, sometimes 30 minutes and then it stops working. Not responding at all. 

The problem is I can't run my trading robots because the cTrader keeps freezing.

Hello,

1. Does anyone know how do I sell the cBot I created myself?

2. Do you think It is illegal for me to just give my email where people can contact me and then I ask them to wire the money to my bank account and then I will send them my cBot?

I know this is just based on trust. Someone telling you he will give you his cBot after you pay him.. It does not sound very safe.

 

3. Does anyone know how do I hide the code of my cBot so only the parameters stay to be modified? Or if I can hide the code and the parameters - and then I adjust the settings for the specific currency pair and the broker the client want to use my cBot on.

 

4. Does anyone know if my Broker or my Prop Firm or cTrader itself - If I use their version of cTrader - can see the code of my cBot. I worked so hard on my trading robot, I do not want them to steal from me.

 

My cBot=

Backtest from 3 January 2022 to 15 February 2023. 1 year and 2 months. I also did a 2 year backtest and it performs very well.

Starting Capital: 100 eur

Ending Balance: 1032 eur

Max Equity Drawdown: 31% (It can be less If you reduce the volume. Lots)

Hi there,

This option was removed. Strategies are automatically deleted 30 days after they have stopped.

Best regards,

cTrader Team

1.Can I rename the Strategy?

2. If I ask my broker to delete my cTrader trading account - will the strategy name be deleted the same time the trading account is deleted?

I have strategy names on my Demo accounts as well so others can't have the same strategy name. I wanted to delete the strategy and name my new strategy on my live account.

 

(I am sure If we the cTrader users voted for the option 'Delete Strategy' to be removed almost no one would be for it)

Hello,

The wrong currency pair is loading when I want to optimize or backtest NZD/USD. The cTrader 4.6.2 loads EUR/NZD.
