Hi there,

You are doing nothing wrong. cBots running locally require cTrader to be running.

Best regards,

 Thank you!

I read that it is possible to run the bots on a cloud:

https://help.ctrader.com/ctrader-algo/synchronisation/

It says: “Synchronisation with the Cloud is a feature that allows you to run cBots in a dedicated environment independent of your local machine”

I thought setting up the insurance is enough. 

How can I run my bots 24/7 on a cloud without using my local machine?

 

Thank you!

Hi there, 

To use cloud execution, you need to use the latest version of cTrader. You can find it in the link below
