What about linked charts? Is this feature not going to be a part of ctrader 3?

Hi, Spotware, your platform looks really sexy now

Do you plan to add a market for bots and indicators? So traders can sell their products on your market.

Backtesting is much slower than before. Is this going to be improved when it's officially released?

cTrader 3.0 : Backtest duration: 88.014 seconds, 2541006 ticks, 42878 bars

The code used for testing:

{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class SpeedTest : Robot
    {
        private DateTime _startTime;

Hi!

 

I've got some bugs while using tick chart: After some time the chart just stopped to refresh. The bid and ask line keep moving but without drawing the candle and without count the ticks on the bottom.

Hi Panagiotis!

I've tried and faced this issue with T100, T150, T200 and T250. I didn't try the others.

 

Some times even the plataform restart didn't solve it.

There is a major bug in the new signature of ModifyPosition with the volume parameter.

The account balance doesn't cummulate the profit made if it was closed by a negative 

In this exemple, I have a Sell Order of 5000. I sell 1000 of this in 5 steps with

      Bot.ModifyPosition(positionSell, positionSell.VolumeInUnits - 1000);

hello, 

it seems there is another issue with modify position in backtesting. Look at this case: I have change the position size to 1K and then closed the postion...look at final result. (I would have expected some partial close btw)

Could we please at some point have the numbers inside the DOM show a total for bid and ask at the top of each side.

The indicator visibility across different time frames is still not configurable in new beta 3.0. 

This feature is already availlable on web version. 

Will this be part of final 3.0 rollout?

Hey great work! There is no t70 tick option though! The list shows 60, 80, 90!! The one I wanted to use is actually t70, is there any chance on adding this before the release?

Hi Panagiotis!

How are you?

I'm really enjoying the version 3.0 specially the higher tick charts.

I know that you guys avoid committing on dates and that's fine. I just want to know if you have any information about the test and how the version 3 is going maybe to see forecast or next steps for the version 3. I'm waitiing for it!

 

Thank you so much!

Hi Eklon,

Thanks for your message. Indeed we avoid committing on dates, it is a policy to compromise on time rather than on quality. However, we understand your impatience to get new features more often, therefore we are currently restructuring our processes for a faster release cycle for our client side applications. Rest assured that you will be receiving updates more often in the future.

Now regarding what is coming soon, our immediate plans include a symbol centric design of cTrader, more chart types (renko, range etc), new features in cTrader Automate like visual backtesting and Charts API, a revamped cTrader Copy application and many more. We will post detailed announcements about these new features soon.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis

RE:

HEllo,

 

I unfortunately also have the slow back testing issue that others have reported.  When backtesting from say 2015,  I see that it sometimes just stops at around 2017.  While the bugs /optimizations are being sorted out,  is there some way that I can get the old Calgo version 2 series?  I cannot find a download link.  I would like to replace the Beta temporarily so that I can continue backtesting/optimizations.

shelby

Hi shelby.pereira,

There is no cAlgo 2.01 available from Spotware. However you can download it from brokers that still have not rolled out cTrader 3.0.

There is a problem with crosshair...

 

When you select crosshair and press the mouse button.. while keeping it pressed.. when you drag it to another point on chart to see data like pips, period and price.. However if there is an indicator there(like bollingerband on that spot), you can't read the data.

 

I know its hard to explain.. so check screenshot:

 

It is showing bollinger bands(simple etc.) while it should be showing me crosshair data like pips, period, price etc. That's the way it was in previous version.

Since the update to 3.0, the application is horrible slow, just setting my TP and SL makes the application slow down or crash, after seeing this I am considering of moving all my capital to meta trader again

Hello Spotware.  Congratulations on the new version.  The account analysis interface seems great to me.  However I find it somewhat annoying not being able to accommodate the toolbox somewhere to save some more space.  For example under the analysis and graphic menu on the left of the screen.

Hi,

Indeed, congrats to latest update; one question though, as asked before, why is 70 tick chart option missing? Has this been done on purpose? If so, what is the idea behind this?

I don't understand why all other multplies of 10 ticks are available and 70 is not??!!?

Thanks in advance for your reply!
