No, but you can wait until the weekend to relaunch cTrader

Hello Astroke,

Thank you for your reply.

That can be an option, however I am afraid this won't solve the issue, since there are several orders involved.

In that case, after running cBot again, I would need to go through every single pending order and only delete the new orders created, so that previous situation remains.

It would help a lot if an image of the current situation (pending orders incl. parameters) could be saved and then restored. Since market is closed there will be no issue with open positions, however, all newly generated pending orders need to be deleted accordingly to get to the previous situation.

Hi ncel01,

Pending orders are not deleted when you restart cTrader. If you want your cBot to maintain the state between restarts, then you need to program this yourself.

Hi Panagiotis,

That's a good tip!

In fact I didn't think about coding this but I guess it can be easily implemented in my case! ????

Btw, are cTrader updates synchronized across all brokers platforms?

Thank you!

Hi ncel01,

You can just save the info you need to maintain in a file and load it on start up.

Regarding the updates, we roll them out in stages, so some brokers receive them earlier than others.

Update and auto restart on weekends would be a great feature to have.
