Hi,

Since the latest release, (1.13) I noticed that the platform itself generates a lot of noise in the logging output such as the one below. How can I disable this so that I can see just my own messages?

I think you are watching the tab "Journal". In the cAlgo tab "Log" there will be listed no noise...

It is not possible at the time being. We may implement this in the future.

I am not sure why this was introduced without thinking that it will completely impair debugging. I used to love this dev environment, but now I am no longer able to track what is going on in my code as I have millions of these lines that show information I don't need to see and I am spending 20% of my time looking for that one line I need to see. The sooner it's fixed the better in my view this is quite a serious step backwards.

Oh, you mean the backtesting logging (! = robot log) . Right, that is now very confusing...

We will add the option to filter out automatically generated trading log messages.

The option to filter out automatically generated trading log messages is now available (Spotware cAlgo).
