Now we can confirm that it is a valid behavior.
Even if trading is not possible platform can receive new prices which could produce new bar. Therefore you need to extend logic of your cBot to handle trading errors.

If operation failed you can retry it after some time period.

You mean if operation failed, I need to use OnTick method to repeat the functionality of OnBar?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, you can use OnTick method to repeat the failed trade. You can also do Thread.Sleep in OnBar method and then repeat the failed trade.

I tried to solve this issue, with " System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(300000);" but unfortunately it's not working for me. 

Can anyone help me?

Dear Developers,

As you previously said "Even if trading is not possible platform can receive new prices which could produce new bar." OK I accept that, I do not understand why, but it's not important... 

Therefore, I need to open the half of the positions by manually. In this case very difficult to set the proper SL/TP levels and set the position sizing.

So, please help me to handle this problem with a sample code.

Thanks in advance!

You can try the following snippet

            while (true)
            {
                ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, Symbol, Symbol.VolumeMin);
                if (LastResult.IsSuccessful)
                {
                    break;
                }
                else
                {
                    Thread.Sleep(1000);
                }
            }
