Thanks for the response. I know how to do that too but did not consider this because it doesn't prevent the bot from opening positions in the first place.

I can, but can't do this right away. In the meantime, I was able to implement a workaround by adding a condition whereby if position.pips == 0, do not execute.

I tried incorporating the above in one of my cbots and an error occurred showing this:

Error CS0649: Field 'cAlgo.Robots.BlueMethDemoExpiration._conditionMet' is never assigned to, and will always have its default value false

I guess the part where you wrote" _conditionMet = ..." means something and needs to be applied to the condition. However, I am not certain how. Assistance with a more specific sample would be highly appreciated.

You can use this assembly which encapsulates (hides) all the complex code and allows you to write to a file with a single line of code.

Its free and there is also a video demo on the product page.

The moment I read it, I knew this would work, and it did.

Thanks. You're the best mate!

One solution that I think would work is that the bot just runs the functions just once and then waits about 1 minute before running it again, by which time the server has probably already processed the order and so bot would not have to send new market orders since the symbol would have positions by that time. However, I have no idea how to code that. If you can, please advise.

On the other hand, if you have a solution different from the one above but would work as well, please feel free to share it.

Is there a way to calculate the average daily gain/loss in absolute terms over a N number of daily candles?

I mean, pivot point support and resistance levels

Ok. So are you saying that with the second indicator, it is possible, it's just that I have to add functionality in the pivot point cBot code for the cBot to access the support and resistance levels in the indicator?

Considerable changes - does that mean almost changing the code from scratch or a major overhaul? Would appreciate your assessment on this. Thanks.

Possible?

I just need to know if this is possible or not so that I know if I am wasting time trying to do this or not. The code is simple, instead of take profit or stop loss in the executemarketorder, I want to change it to the price levels indicated in the price S/R indicator.

buying at support and selling on resistance

Hello Mr. Lime,

I noticed that your code is similar to what I want to achieve, except I'll get the support/resistance levels from this indicator - https://ctrader.com/algos/indicators/show/1467

Would you know how to code the bot so that it references those levels in that indicator?

Your assistance would be great appreciated.

Thanks much.

Already did. The first version of this was not async, just modifyposition, as may be observed in the first post above which is lengthy so I understand if nobody read that.

I wouldn't even read that myself again. hehe
