Bollinger Bands Main changed to exponential after update
17 Mar 2021, 15:48


Hi, I noticed this odd behaviour after 4.0 update installed. All my BB indicators had EMAs as the main, while I always used SMAs, had to change all manually, hope I didn't forget any.

Seeing all charts and indicators completely different since last time I opened the cTrader has been quite shocking.

It happened again two days ago after updating ctrader!

Please fix this!

The MAType of Moving Average has also automatically changed its default from Simple to Exponential after the update.

All cBot parameters and workspaces being traded also have their MAType defaults changed from Simple to Exponential, which have negative impacts on trading.

Please announce to all cTrader users when changing the default settings of indicators.

Best Regards.
