Hi a.fernandez.martinez,

Can you post a code sample showing how you are using Watchlists?

I'm only using the watchlists in the trade mode as you can see below :

I'm looking for a way to get a list or an array of the symbols in a Watchlist, for example the USD MAJOR PAIRS like you can see in the picture.

For the USD MAJOR PAIRS watchlist, the string array could be something like :

USDMAJORPAIRS[0] = "GBPUSD";

USDMAJORPAIRS[1] = "USDJPY";

USDMAJORPAIRS[2] = "USDCAD";

USDMAJORPAIRS[3] = "USDCHF";

USDMAJORPAIRS[4] = "AUDUSD";

USDMAJORPAIRS[5] = "NZDUSD";

USDMAJORPAIRS[6] = "EURUSD";

But when I type watchlist in the Automate API reference nothing appears (top right corner) :

If I type watchlist in the code cTrader doesn't suggest anything, I tried to type Collections.Watchlist, Chart.Watchlist, Internals.Watchlist, and a lot more but there is no way to find them.

Is there a way to access watchlists from a cbot ?

I will also need to use Watchlists related events, like symbol added or watchlist renamed.

Thanks,

Best regards,

Hi a.fernandez.martinez,

Here is an example

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

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class NewcBot : Robot
    {
        [Parameter(DefaultValue = 0.0)]
        public double Parameter { get; set; }

        protected override void OnStart()
        {
            foreach (var watchlist in Watchlists)
            {
                foreach (var symbol in Symbols)
                    Print(watchlist.Name + " - " + symbol);
            }
        }

        protected override void OnTick()
        {
            // Put your core logic here
        }

        protected override void OnStop()
        {
            // Put your deinitialization logic here
        }
    }
}

Best Regards,

Hi a.fernandez.martinez,

Probably you are using v3.3 Note that this is available only in v3.5.

Hahah I thought of that too, is there a way to know which version we have ? how to update without uninstalling and reintalling everything ?

Is it dependent on me or on my broker ?

You can see the version on the header of cTrader. It depends on your broker, there is nothing you can do.
