this would be interesting indeed.

I managed to find Ask/Bid etc information via 

Symbols.GetSymbol("EURUSD")

and market orders work as well.

But Indicators? OnBar events? no clue

Hi fardugotra,

You can read more about multisymbol optimization here. You can try TryChangeTimeFrameAndSymbol for changing symbols. Note that this function only works in indicators and when there are no cBots running on the chart.

Best Regards,

Hi fardugotra,

Multisymbol backtesting allows you to backtest cBots that execute orders on other symbols than the chart symbol. To do what you have described, you will need backtest your cBot on different instances with different symbols and compare the results.
