RE: The cBot is not entering trades.

Hi there,

The problem is here

Meini.haOpen.Last(0) > Meini.haClose.Last(0)

On bar opening the values will always be equal. Try executing the code in OnBarClosed() instead.

Regarding the timeframe, the Algo class has a Timeframe parameter, you can user it.

Best regards,

Hi PanagiotisCharalampous

I followed your instructions, but my bot is still not working. And I reconstructed it so it looks like this 

//#reference: ..\Indicators\John.algo
using System;
using System.Linq;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.Indicators;

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC)]
    public class HAK : Robot
    {
        [Parameter("Initial Volume", DefaultValue = 1, MinValue = 1)]
        public int InitialVolume { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Initial Stop Loss", DefaultValue = 40)]
        public int SL { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Initial Take Profit", DefaultValue = 40)]
        public int TP { get; set; }

        public bool isAlreadyInTrade;
        public IndicatorDataSeries haClose { get; set; }
        public IndicatorDataSeries haOpen { get; set; }
        public John HAJ;
        string label = "HAK";

        protected override void OnStart()
        {
            Positions.Closed += OnPositionClosed;
            HAJ = Indicators.GetIndicator<John>(10, MovingAverageType.Simple);
            isAlreadyInTrade = false;
        }

        private void OnPositionClosed(PositionClosedEventArgs args)
        {
            isAlreadyInTrade = false;
        }

        protected override void OnBar()-----------------tried OnBarClosed()
        {
            int index = MarketSeries.Close.Count - 2;

            if (!isAlreadyInTrade)
            {
                Print("Current value of Kolor: " + HAJ.Kolor);
                
                if (HAJ.Kolor)
                {
                    
                    ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, Symbol, InitialVolume, label, SL, TP);
                    isAlreadyInTrade = true;
                }
                //else
                //{
                    
                    //ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Sell, Symbol, InitialVolume, label, SL, TP);
                    //isAlreadyInTrade = true;
                //}
            }
        }
    }
}

I found out that the bot somehow thinks the kolor is always false

Indicator:

public Colors Color;
        public bool Kolor { get; set; }

Color = (haOpen[index] > haClose[index]) ? Colors.Red : Colors.LimeGreen;
                Kolor = (haClose[index] > haOpen[index]);
