Assistance Needed with Ctrader Backtesting Error
07 Dec 2023, 07:06


Hello, I'm asking for your help regarding Ctrader Backtesting. I can only perform Backtesting in "visual mode"; removing this mode results in an error. I hope you can help me solve the problem.
It shouldn't be a code issue; the code construction is confirmed successfully. These are bots that I've always used on my old computer. Even simple bots downloaded from ClickAlgo give me the same error.

Is it possible that the issue arises from the fact that I copied the Robots folder from my old computer and pasted it directly into Ctrader on the new PC?

Hi there, 

This is a known issue and will be fixed soon. In the meanwhile, try restarting your computer. Sometimes it works.

Best regards,

Panagiotis

Thank you, but even after restarting, it still doesn't work. Is there anything else I can do?

Hi there,

You could also try clearing your backtesting cache in C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Broker cTrader\BacktestingCache

Beyond that I have no further suggestions at the moment

Thank you, same issue as always. Do you think that buying external data could solve the problem?

Hello, are there any updates regarding the optimization issue? I can only perform backtesting in VisualMode; it does not allow me to backtest without it, nor does it allow optimization.

Try creating a new account and use it for backtesting.

Hello @PanagiotisCharalampous, I've noticed that the issue might be due to the Cbot, some operate in a non-visual mode allowing me to carry out Backtesting and Optimizations quickly, while others I've created only work in display mode. Could you help me solve this problem?
