Hello, I am new with this platform so I am sorry if the question may sound silly. I downloaded, installed, watched the video but cannot start the backtest. Whatever bot I select, the backtest button is disabled. Does it mean that backtesting is disabled in weekends, or what do I do wrong?

Hi, baktest it works only with the connected terminal to the Internet and logged on account.

Hello, how to open a window for creating Limit order (F9) from cBots or Indicators? If possible, how to pass parameters in this window (symbol, price, volume, SL, TP, Comment)?

We are already working on it. Backtesting will be available very soon.

Thanks for the answer.

Hi, at the moment is not true, but it can be circumvented:

using System;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using System.IO;


namespace cAlgo.Indicators
{
    [Indicator(IsOverlay = true, TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC)]

    {
        [Parameter(DefaultValue = 0.0)]
        public double Parameter { get; set; }
        string fileName = "";
        string[] Pr = new string[1];

        [Output("Main")]
        public IndicatorDataSeries Result { get; set; }


        protected override void Initialize()
        {
            if (Symbol.Code.ToString() == "EURUSD")
            {
                fileName = "C:\\Users\\***\\Documents\\cAlgo\\Sources\\Indicators\\Pary\\EURUSD.txt";
            }
            if (Symbol.Code.ToString() == "EURGBP")
            {
                fileName = "C:\\Users\\***\\Documents\\cAlgo\\Sources\\Indicators\\Pary\\EURGBP.txt";
            }
        }

        public override void Calculate(int index)
        {
            using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(new FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write)))
            {
                sw.WriteLine(MarketSeries.Close[MarketSeries.Close.Count - 1].ToString());
                sw.WriteLine(MarketSeries.Close[MarketSeries.Close.Count - 2].ToString());
                sw.WriteLine(MarketSeries.Close[MarketSeries.Close.Count - 3].ToString());
                sw.WriteLine(MarketSeries.Close[MarketSeries.Close.Count - 4].ToString());
                sw.WriteLine(MarketSeries.Close[MarketSeries.Close.Count - 5].ToString());
                sw.WriteLine(MarketSeries.Close[MarketSeries.Close.Count - 6].ToString());
            }

            Pr = File.ReadAllLines(fileName);

            Print(Pr[0]);

        }
    }
}

Drawback to this option, you need to add an indicator on each pair, which is needed. Also make a second indicator, which will handle the data.

Hi,

when do support Multi-timeframe baktesting?

Thanks.
