Hi there,

There is no formula for Price and Balance. They are fixed values. Regarding the rest

Pips: (Entry Price - Bid/Ask Price) / Pip Size 

P&L: (Volume * (Entry Price - Bid/Ask Price)) - (Commissions + Swaps)

Best regards,

Panagiotis

Hi there,

This is not possible. If you want to copy trades between accounts, you can consider cMAM

Best regards,

Panagiotis

Thanks, but this is a paid third-party product. 
And how can a developer do this on their own through direct cTrader services without buying cMAM ?

cMAM is free but if you want to develop something like this from scratch, have a look at Open API

Unfortunately we do not have an ETA for the update. You can create another account with your broker and use that when backtesting

I have already tried another account with my broker, but it performs exactly the same 

Then you would have to wait for the update or try another broker

Hi there,

If you can share the cBot code, we can have a look. Also make sure you use tick data for your backtesting.

Hi there,

It's a known issue and it will be resolved in an upcoming update of cTrader. In the meanwhile a workaround would be to use a different account.

Thanks Panagiotis,

 

When is the upcoming update? 

Also, a different account - in what way?

Regards,

Steven

Hi there,

Please share with us us the following information

  • Strategy name
  • Copy account broker and leverage
  • Screenshots showing the strategy provider positions and the follower positions where we can see the difference you are referring to.

Best regards,

Panagiotis

The strategy is Wriggle. 

My broker is TopFX. Leverage is 1:1000.

Below are screenshots of my positions with equity graph

Below are screenshots of the strategy provider positions and his equity graph

Hi there,

Your screenshots do not display the volume not a one to one comparison of the trades showing the difference in volume you are referring to. Please provide such a comparison so that we can see clearly what you are referring to.

Best regards,

Panagiotis

All the trades that are on the screenshots have mismatch equity ratio.

Here is an example:

On this trade he is loosing more than i do(around 40%)

Here is another example where he is winning more than i do. 

Should the wining and losing ratio between my position and strategy provider positions be the same as our equity ratio ???   

Hi there, 

You still haven't shared the volume so I can't know why there is a difference. There are several reasons that cause discrepancies in copying, I list them below

  • Differences between your positions' entry and closing prices and those of the strategy provider
  • Differences in the size of your positions compared to those of the strategy provider
  • Variations in the commissions you pay to your broker compared to those of the strategy provider
  • The possibility that your broker does not offer the same trading symbols used in the strategy
  • Insufficient margin in your account to copy some of the orders executed in the strategy
  • Differences in the stop out levels, which might cause your account to be stopped out, while the strategy provider continues to trade

Best regards,

Panagiotis

Hi there,

Can you share a screenshot demonstrating what you are looking at?

Best regards,

Panagiotis

When attempting to click on "Modify Position," there's no response or display. The same issue occurs when trying to click on "Modify Order" for Pending Orders. Overall, the "Modify" function isn't functioning.

Hi there, 

Make sure the form does not open on an external display that has been disconnected. Try also restarting cTrader and your pc.

RE: Can cBot shutdown cTrader

driftingprogrammer said: 

Hi,

 

I was able to use the API System.Environment.Exit(0);

to shutdown ctrader in the earlier versions of ctrader, but in the new version 4.8, using this API is only shutting down the cBot but not the entire cTrader.

 

My requirement is to shutdown the entire instance of cTrader. Is there an API I could use in version 4.8 of ctrader to accomplish this.

 

Please let me know,

Thanks in advance.

cBots now run in separate processes. If you want to close cTrader, you need to find the process and kill it

Hi there,

You can post suggestions here.

You can also use cTrader CLI to interact externally with cBots.

 

Hi,

 

The API System.Environment.Exit(0);

which in version 4.0 use to shutdown the entire ctrader is now only shutting down the cbot and the cbot is restarting after shutting down. 

Is there any API now, which I could use to shutdown that very instance of cTrader, like I was able to do in the older versions with the above API.

Please let me know as this is critical for me, my instance of ctrader is running many instances of a third party cBot which I want to shutdown before the market close (I dont want to close any position, I just want the cBots to shutdown that is why I had been shutting down cTrader itself with the above API).

 

Thanks.
