Hi there,

We do not have any plans to upgrade to .Net 8.0 at the moment.

Best regards,

BUMP!

Hi Panagiotis,

cTrader has become my preferred algo. trading platform.

Knowing that support for .Net 8.0 will not be provided leaves little choice in progressing with c# coding of cBots for every cAlgo programmer. Sad!

Perhaps cTrader staff would reconsider this decision with enough support for the concept from the cTrader community?

Hi there,

I don't think so. Upgrading frameworks requires substantial resources that need to be redirected from other useful features. Resources are not unlimited hence if we do this, we won't do something else. Therefore we will not do this if there is no substantial value to be added to the platform. For example, at the moment we prefer to develop the R/R tool than upgrading to .Net 8.0. When we see that it's time to upgrade e.g. require some feature from the newer version, we will do it.

Best regards,

Panagiotis
