Can I open charts through CAlgo?
07 Feb 2016, 05:29


Hi. I've always been a hardcore MT4 / MT5 fan, and never looked at anything else until just yesterday. Took some time to look into this CTrader thing, and WOW... where have you been all my life :)

Anyway, with Metatrader, something I used to do is programmatically work out a short list of pairs that currently suit my trading criteria, then close all charts, and open just the charts for the pairs that meet my criteria. It was just a nice little time saver.

Is this possible with cAlgo? If so, how do I do it?

Thanks in advance.

I think you can trade live by adding an instance to your bot and then press the play button.

Thanks for the quick reply, but it's not quite what I was after. What I want to do is have 1 bot determine a list of pairs that meet my criteria, then have that bot close all open charts, and open 1 chart for each of the pairs that suit my criteria. It just saves me having to do it manually.

Dear cre8iveq,

Currently there is no way to open or close charts programmatically. We will consider providing such methods in the future. Stay tuned.

Additionally, you can post your ideas/suggestions to http://vote.spotware.com/
