Hi yearn2012,

The reason you cannot debug a custom indicator is because you probably installed cTrader 3.0 on a computer that already has cAlgo 2.01 installed. In this case, your existing cBots are not replaced, however they need a necessary addition in order to be debuggable in Visual Studio. In order to resolve this problem, please follow the next steps

1. Go to Properties > AssemblyInfo.cs
2. Add the following code at the bottom of the file

#if DEBUG
[assembly: Debuggable(DebuggableAttribute.DebuggingModes.Default | DebuggableAttribute.DebuggingModes.DisableOptimizations)]
#endif

This should fix your problem. Repeat this solution for every indicator/cBot you need to debug in Visual Studio. Newly generated cBots/Indicators should contain this attribute by default.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis
