How to save settings on ctraderweb?
How to save settings on ctraderweb?
09 May 2013, 22:42
So I spent like 30 minutes getting all my settings just right thinking that they would be saved. I closed the window, reopened and then all my settings were gone, only thing that remained were my favorites.
Did I do something wrong? Or can you really not save settings in ctrader?
Thanks

I really like this platform and ease of use. But damnit if I can't save my settings theres no point in having all these indicators and whatnot if I have to spend 30 minutes everytime to set it up. Just a headache.
Have you tried the desktop platform? Does it let you save settings?
Thanks

RE:
I use the cTrader Desktop platform, very fast alows upto 25 charts to be open at once and they are detachable so you can place them over mutiple monitors, I only use 2.
As for saving templates yep works every time just download cAlgo and build the indicators in there and then they will be avalible on cTrader Desktop
Or if you just wanting to have a setup such as some simple moving averages over 10 charts layed out or detached and placed it will be automaticlly saved and when you restart the platform all the charts and any indicators you had setup before will be as they was when you last shut down.
You can also create templates to speed things up, say you wanted to put 3 simple moving averages on 10 charts, setup the first chart then save that setup as a template (give it a name) then just apply the template to the other 9 charts.

I used chrome, but if it's saved on my browser then that explains it, because I have the settings to erase all browser data upon close. It's okay now though, I am using ctrader desktop through bootcamp and it's really great. I came from using Oandas platform and Ctrader is just so much more smoother. I'm satisfied, hope you guys keep up the great work!

Can you tell me where the chart templates in CTrader Web can be found on my HDD? I'd like to be able to copy them across to CTrader Desktop and vice versa.
Thanks!

You cannot transfer your saved templates at the moment. In the near future your saved templates and settings will be accessible from cTrader and cTrader Web alike. You will not have to transfer anything.
