Using older version of cTrader
16 Jun 2019, 05:35


One of the Brokers updated the cTrader to verion 3.5 but i am getting descrepancies between draw downs.  I would like to run the 3.3 version on with Fibo Group. Is there a way to run the older version?

Writing and subscribing as I'd like to know as well because as it stands, there are several key differences between 3.3 & 3.5 that I find makes version 3.5 less user friendly, especially in the realm of configuring bots.

Even though I've provided feedback, I haven't seen any of my suggestions implemented yet with each beta update, nor sure if they will be.

They are usually responsive. I want to use the older version while they get a bug fixed regarding calculating the draw downs.  The other issues I noticed were the log date while backtesting was showing today's date intermitently, the date label on the baktesting chart disppeared when using crosshair tool and when modifying positions it is checking the values and generating technical errors where as before it was ignoring them, so we need some edscriptions.

Other than that I like the new interface, I saw a good idea to have a pushpin instead of a sproket for the Bot parameters so you can pin them open or not. 

Nothing major so far than i know of.

But I am in the middle of backtesting and my numbers are off between brokers because they are on different versions

Thank you - that was one of my suggestions. :-)

The other one related to bots was to add a "+" next to a paramter group so we can expand/collapse particular groups as needed.

 

Anyway, hopefully Spotware will keep us updated here with your issue.

Hi lec0456,

There is no way to use older versions at the moment. The issue with the non persistent cBot parameters has been forwarded to the team and they possible solutions are under consideration.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis
