If not, please provide the version-up products after confirming that they are completely safe to use. Users are in a lot of trouble.

The quality and reliability of the cTrader platform product is important. If bugs occur frequently, the cTrader platform will lose the trust of its users and become less competitive with other companies.

This is so true. There have been many issues and bugs that should have never seen the light of day. It's like Spotware's Developers don't even use the product or have any dedicated quality control / test engineers.

If Spotware had their own cbots running in a test environment, this bug should have been picked up by their team loooooooooong before being released.

What's worse is how much longer it's taking critical issues to get resolved. This freezing issue was first reported end of May. It's nearly 30 days later and it's still not resolved. Totally unacceptable! Not only can we not run bots safely now, a lot of users reported the issue using the backtest functionality. These are what sets cTrader apart from the rest and when these key aspects can't even be trusted…

If Spotware ever gets around to cleaning up this mess, they need to look internally and either start removing people who aren't doing what they're supposed to be, or actually creating a team to do this and ensure a quality product gets released.

There's now at least 3 threads on this issue, plus it has been brought up in the Facebook cTrader group as well:

Hi there,

The freeze issue is under investigation. Regarding the SL issue, this usually happens when you are trying to set invalid stop losses i.e. inside the spread or with an invalid price. If you can provide steps to reproduce the problem with valid stop loss prices we are happy to have a look.

Best regards,

Panagiotis

Has Spotware been able to reproduce the freeze issue?

Sorry. My issue is the “Freeze” issue, which the OP in this thread clearly mentioned in their original post (bold italiacs are mine) :

"cBots that run on "Ontick" or "Renko Chart" frequently freeze because the number of bars exceeds the memory."

Also, I didn't see an answer to the question if Spotware has been able to reproduce the freezing yet that's been reported?

Thank you.
