Hi there,

If you go to the Algo tab in your mobile application, you should be able to see all your algos and start them.

Best regards,

Hi there,

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce this problem. The code you pasted builds fine for me.

Hi there,

Can you please provide more information about the issue? What do you mean when you say it doesn't work? Can you share the source code as well as steps to reproduce?

Best regards,

simply the cbot doesnt excute any positions in all pairs except in indices. here is the result of backtesting when used with Japan225 for example:

You seem to use lots instead of units as volume. That's probably the reason.

Hi RayAdam,

There is no option to disable updates for cTrader. 

Best Regards,

Panagiotis

hi Panagiotis, 

there should be a feature to block update. this is a platform we use to trade money and we can't risk our trades with new versions specially when they still have problems. there should be an update acknowlegment.. now i am not able to handle my Algos properly with very slow optimizations and optimization status not appearing on the left screen as before .. I am using a Dell R720 server with dual processors total 56 cores and 256 RAM yet the optimization is extremly slow compared to previous version ! 

Hi there,

If you don't want to use the update, you can use your broker's version which has not been updated yet.

RE: RE: v5.0.19 Logs: search & filter - No longer possible ??

Hi there,

Search was removed. Now you can open log file as txt files and search there

Best regards,

Panagiotis

 

Panagiotis,

That I've noticed. Is this considered an improvement? 

With the built-in search function only the search results that matched the search were showing. There was also a filter (trading, information, warning, error).

I don't think that such features are available in notepad or similar app.

Regarding backtesting: I see the option of having a built-in search/ filter feature of much higher applicability  than an option to save the log as a .txt file.

In fact, I see both these options as complementary and not as incompatible.

Please note that, among other, it is not very practical to have to open external applications to check backtest data on every backtest iteration.

I can already tell you that, in my case, this will be a huge drawback when backtesting, since I am still expecting thousands of iterations to come.

Hi, 

I will forward your feedback to the product team.

Best regards,

Panagiotis
