does cBot run independently? where we add Account Information?
05 May 2024, 21:33


Hi . 

i have some questions . 

1- in a CBOT , where is we add information of our account like user/password/server, …? 

2- and our cbot code , can run independently or we need to run that code in ctrader app? (like mql5)?

3- and for running cbot , it have to be run on "a chart window in ctrader"? or not ? 

 

ideal state for me is , my code in visual studio , run independently and via information of my account and cAlgo library , it could do trade for me , on every symbol that i choose . my cbot could do this?

Hi there,

  1. The cBot runs on the account currently connected to your cTrader.
  2. If you want to run your cBot independently you can use cTrader CLI
  3. If you run it through cTrader Desktop, yes. If you run it through cTrader CLI, then no.

Best regards,

Panagiotis
