Automate really lacks standard source folder management so User can organize and hierarchize its sources as he see fit, like in all other source management systems of my knowledge

Hi,

You can open your cBot/Indicator with Visual studio or any other IDE (after 4.2 release) and add folders to your indicator/cBot project like any other .NET project.

The cTrader automate code editor is a simple one file only code editor, it only shows the main code file of an indicator or cBot, to use full power of .,NET use an IDE like Visual studio or Rider, the cBot/Indicator is just a .NET project like any other, open it, and do anything you want to, and you can compile/build it from your IDE.

You can also use Git when using Visual studio.

here is an example: spotware/pattern-drawing: cTrader chart pattern drawing indicator (github.com)
