backtest issues

I have been updated to version 4.3.13

I have just been on a teams meeting and people on there have the same issue with 4.3.12

We have found the issue to be happening on the normal Ctrader platform on a demo account with no broker involved.

Hi dionysian.apostle,

Can you try gining full access to your cBot?

here is a simple cbot that shows no equity or balance in the backtest

using System;
using System.Linq;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.Indicators;

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{
    [Robot(AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]

    public class Marks : Robot
    {



        [Parameter("Quantity (Lots)", Group = "Volume", DefaultValue = 0.01, MinValue = 0.01, Step = 0.01)]
        public double Quantity { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Source")]
        public DataSeries Source { get; set; }



        [Parameter("MA slow", DefaultValue = 200)]
        public int MAslow { get; set; }


        [Parameter("MA medium", DefaultValue = 30)]
        public int MAmedium { get; set; }

        [Parameter("MA fast", DefaultValue = 10)]
        public int MAfast { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Take Profit", DefaultValue = 50, MinValue = 1)]
        public int TP { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Stop Loss", DefaultValue = 500, MinValue = 1)]
        public int SL { get; set; }
        

       
        private MovingAverage i_MA_slow;
        private MovingAverage i_MA_fast;
        private MovingAverage i_MA_medium;


        private double volumeInUnits;

        protected override void OnStart()
        {
          
            volumeInUnits = Symbol.QuantityToVolumeInUnits(Quantity);
            

            i_MA_slow = Indicators.MovingAverage(Bars.ClosePrices, MAslow, MovingAverageType.Exponential);
            i_MA_fast = Indicators.MovingAverage(Bars.ClosePrices, MAfast, MovingAverageType.Exponential);
            i_MA_medium = Indicators.MovingAverage(Bars.ClosePrices, MAmedium, MovingAverageType.Exponential);
        }



        protected override void OnBar()
        {

            if (i_MA_fast.Result.Last(200) > i_MA_medium.Result.Last(200))
            {
                ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Sell, SymbolName, volumeInUnits, "SCALP", SL, TP);

            }
}


        }


            }

1 tick problem

I have now discovered this problem lies only when the backtest is done on one tick timescale.

Anything above 2 ticks works fine.

Hi dionysian.apostle,

When I say gining full access, I mean here

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{
    [Robot(AccessRights = AccessRights.FullAccess)]
