Hi willd7781,

Can you please provide the link to the cBot?

Best Regards,

Panagiotis

Bit of an old thread but I believe this is the link to the algo willd7781 presented.

I also cannot get this algo to work properly.  The sl and tp work well in back tests but in live trading are not accurate.

I wouldn't hold your breath, they've been saying for years they are going to add it yet nothing. Great platform otherwise.

Good to know you have already implemented Heikin Ashi charts for cTrader Web! I look forward to seeing them on cTrader/cAlgo in the near future.  Many thanks.

This would be a brilliant feature as it would smooth out the charts a lot, please add this feature!

Hi again Panagiotis, thank you for taking the time to help me.  Now when I enter "anotherSeries" intp the MacdCrossOver() function I get 2 build errors.

Error CS1502: The best overloaded method match for 'cAlgo.API.Internals.IIndicatorsAccessor.MacdCrossOver(cAlgo.API.DataSeries, int, int, int)' has some invalid arguments

Error CS1503: Argument 1: cannot convert from 'cAlgo.API.Internals.MarketSeries' to 'cAlgo.API.DataSeries'

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Many thanks

Claud

Hi Panagiotis, thank you for your speedy reply.  I have addapted the algo per your sugestion, however it is still taking the trade based on current time-frame even though the longer time-frame MACD signal is pointing the other direction.  I would be most greatful if you could help me solve this cunundrum.  Many thanks.

I have attepmted to add a higher time frame to korakodmy's MACD crossover algo, for confirmation before a trade is initiated, however the robot is still opening the trade based on the current chart time frame. Can anyone provide some pointers as to how this would be possible?  Many thanks.
