Using OnTimer to send an email
Using OnTimer to send an email
18 Nov 2018, 01:34
Hi, i wish to have a method in my code that sends an email to me an the same time each day. i have the code to send the actual email and ive set the correct setting in cTrader. However currectly ive put the code into the OnStart method but this obviously only sends once. I thought that using the onTimer method would work but i dont know how to use it.
P.s. Does anyone have a list of all of the OnTimer, OnStart, OnStop ect API method and in adition is there a propper guide of all the parts of the cAlgo API.

Hi that helped but im still having prolems.
ive got to here....
protected override void OnStart()
}
Timer.Start(1);
}
protected override void OnTimer()
{
if (Time.Equals("23:00:00"))
{
Print("yay it worked")
}
}
I thought that this code would print the message at the time 23:00:00 but it didnt work.

Hi William,
Try the following condition
if(Time.Hour == 23 && Time.Minute == 0 && Time.Second == 0)
{
}
