cTrader - Plugins
06 Feb 2024, 13:31

Hi, I see there are already mentions of Plugins - https://help.ctrader.com/ctrader-automate/plugins/

And that there are even samples in the repo. 

Which version of cTrader is this enabled? I currently have 4.8.30 and I don't have it.

Regards

Sounds interesting.

I was reading about this and wondering if, for instance, users will have the possibility to control/manage multiple cBot/CLI instances via these plugins.

Hi ncel01,

Users will have access to charts and will be able to manage only cBots that are already added on these charts. Plugins do not have access to CLI instances since they run outside of cTrader. You can create your own application to manage CLI instances.

Best regards,

Panagiotis

Hi Panagiotis,

I see.

How to create such an application? Through the FIX API?

You don't need any specific API. CLI is just a process running on your computer. You can develop an application that manages such processes running on your operating system.

That sounds quite complex.

I still want to believe that, in the near future, CLI instances can be controlled/managed via cTrader through some kind of dashboard.

Is it possible to get a prerelease version of the ctrader.automate nuget that has plugin support?

Hi, following up on this thread from Feb 2024, have you released this updated version (which includes Plugins feature)?

I run my broker's latest cTrader version, and it doesn't include such features yet. 

Thanks!
