Hi there,

This is not possible. If you want to copy trades between accounts, you can consider cMAM

https://clickalgo.com/ctrader-trade-copy

Best regards,

Panagiotis

Thanks, but this is a paid third-party product. 
And how can a developer do this on their own through direct cTrader services without buying cMAM ?

cMAM is free but if you want to develop something like this from scratch, have a look at Open API

https://openapi.ctrader.com

Best regards,

Hello,

When running a cbot on desktop(VPS) on my demo account, why when I change to my live account, is the same cbot now active on my live account?

Thanks

Ross

RE: Stop Loss Calculation

firemyst said: 

Depends on what you want.

You're getting the LastValue, which is value as of the moment it's taken in the current bar. As you know, values for the current bar can change depending on what the price does. 

So at the beginning of the bar for example, the top band could be one value, but then if price really skyrockets and the band expands, the top band could end up being another value by the close of the bar.

If that's what you want, fine.

Perhaps what you want is the value of the previous bar when price closed? With Bollinger Bands, that shouldn't change. So instead of getting the .LastValue, you need to get .Last(1).

 

@firemyst
Thanks for your reply.

This never really worked me, been struggling with this for a while. When back testing I would expect to see a stop loss line or Take profit line above or below the bands. No matter what pip level I set the variable to just stays the same.
