Thank you, then it was me misunderstanding you, sorry about that.

So the question is if Paul has access to BTCUSD data via his product?

Great Paul,

I will research more,
The 2nd important thing to understand is if cTrader has access to BTC pricedata for proper backtesting? I tried asking this but it got ignored/misunderstood.

 "Does cTrader have access to market data for tickers BTCUSD from Coinbase/BitStamp or XBTUSD via Bitmex so proper backtesting can be performed."

Thanks Paul,

The architecture outside of cTrader is already done, we have a tradeengine that can be triggered buy emails, so that's why i was trying to figure out if your script could be used for this purpose. Since cTrader can fire emails on the signals then it may work with your script?

Thanks,

Yes I posted here as I expected developers to be responding to the thread so we could discuss this. Is this the wrong place to reach out for that?

No I need the opposite. cTrader should produce the alert based on the strategy used and then trigger the external ordersystem as described.

I think you misunderstand me, I dont need cTrader to connect to an exchange.

Thank you for the reply Panagiotis,

I have my own trading engine that connects to the crypto exchange so what I need to understand is if cTrader can trigger these external actions from within? If this is possible then it should be possible to use a strategy like the one mentioned: CTRADER FOREX GRID-HEDGE
And then define these alerts on the internal actions like Buy/Sell, take profit and so on.

I'm unfamiliar with cTrader, but for my needs the platform (ctrader/mt5/tradingview and more) are used as the decision part of the architecture and externally these decisions are handled.

Regards
Nick
