Hi there,

You cannot retrieve historical deals using FIX API. You need to use Open API instead.

Hi there,

Did you try it yourself? Does it not work? What do yo expect it to do?

Best regards,

Hi there,

This happens because you check the values of the current candle that has not closed yet. Try shifting your checks to index - 1 and index - 2.

Hi there,

1. All indicators should work on Mac. Please provide us some examples so that we can check. If you can also share screenshots demonstrating what you are looking at, it would be helpful.
2. There isn't. You need to have the sufficient margin in order to open a position. You can try depositing some more funds to your demo account.

Thank you for response. I can´t almost run any Indicator. You can see the  problems here in Screnshot.

I was not very accurate in my response. cTrader for Mac should run any .Net 6.0 indicators :) . Legacy indicators are not supported, they need to be upgraded to .Net 6.0

Obviously parameters have to be set, but the tactical layout of having a separate (green only) button way down the page - is inept and wrong…. Like imagine a car where to use the accelerator you have to look down and take your eye off the road……

The stops and margins are indentical for long or short so your point is mute….. and even then clicking the bid or ask box or a button right under it….. if you want to be pedantic……  would be much better than this disconnected mess.

25 years ago on FXCM the layout was better…… but hey…..  the new generation is always so arogant to assume that they know best….. and expert at finding excuses and faulty logic to prove their point.

 

 

Hi there,

This has been working like this for the last 13 years, since cTrader was launched. For the last almost 8 years I have been working at Spotware, it's the first time I receive such a complaint. In addition after 67 views, your suggestion has received 0 votes. This is not called arrogance, it's called science and consensus.

Hi Dha,

Thank you. Could you please send us some troubleshooting information the next time this happens? Please paste a link to this discussion inside the text box before you submit it.

Hi Panagiotis,

First of all, thank you for your attention. I have already submitted the form with a link to this forum. However, I saw that there is a link to download a older version of ctrader, thus, I downloaded yet it says this broker has been suspended. Is there any way for me to use the older version for now? 

Best,

Dha

Hi Dha,

No you cannot use an older version of cTrader at the moment.

Best regards,

Panagiotis

Hi Panagiotis,

Any updates from the troubleshooting team ?

Hi Dha, 

The issue is under investigation.

RE: RE: Problem BOT does not open operation in backtest

emafondex69 said: 

Check your logs, your problem is with the volume. You need to round your volume before you use it

 

 

PanagiotisCharalampous  thank you so much but also if I've corrected the volume, settin a fixed value (1.2 Lots), it doesn't work, can you correct it for me?

Here are the main charateristics

• open long and short at 22.00 UTC+2 (Rome)
• 9 pip stop 
• 0.5 pip tp
• 1.2 lots (volume) 

 

 

here there is my new code, I've tryed my best because I don't know how to program sir, thank you early, have a nice working day.

 

 

 

 

 

using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using cAlgo.Indicators;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class TimeBasedOrder : Robot
    {
        private DateTime targetTime;
        private bool orderPlaced = false;

        [Parameter("Volume (Lots)", DefaultValue = 1.2)]
        public double Volume { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Stop Loss (Pips)", DefaultValue = 9)]
        public int StopLoss { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Take Profit (Pips)", DefaultValue = 0.5)]
        public double TakeProfit { get; set; }

        protected override void OnStart()
        {
            // Set the target time to 22:00 UTC
            targetTime = Server.Time.Date.AddHours(22);
            if (Server.Time > targetTime)
                targetTime = targetTime.AddDays(1);

            Print("Script started. Order will be placed at {0}", targetTime);
        }

        protected override void OnTick()
        {
            if (!orderPlaced && Server.Time >= targetTime)
            {
                PlaceOrder();
                orderPlaced = true;

                // Set the target time to 22:00 UTC the next day
                targetTime = targetTime.AddDays(1);
            }
        }

        private void PlaceOrder()
        {
            var stopLossInPips = StopLoss;
            var takeProfitInPips = TakeProfit;

            var stopLossPrice = Symbol.Ask + stopLossInPips * Symbol.PipSize;
            var takeProfitPrice = Symbol.Ask + takeProfitInPips * Symbol.PipSize;

            var result = ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName, Volume, "TimeBasedOrder", stopLossInPips, takeProfitInPips);

            if (result.IsSuccessful)
                Print("Order placed successfully at {0}", Server.Time);
            else
                Print("Order placement failed: {0}", result.Error);
        }
    }
}

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

this was the photo that you sent to me, now i'll send you the new messages logs…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The volume is set in units, not in Lots. Use Symbol.QuantityToVolume to do the conversion between lots and volume.

setting the system to buy or sell and then always clicking a green button below is kinda dumb and easily leads to buying instead of selling and visa versa. 

since 25 years ago - the protocol was to click on the bid to sell and click on the offer to buy - simple - easy - hard to get confused - and simply have a check box to make it go live. 

 

Hi there,

The form calculates values e.g margin, for which the direction is necessary. The direction is also necessary for the chart on the right. Therefore the direction needs to be known before hand.
