RE:

I never got an answer to this, and took a different route.

But I recently spotted this in the Spotware Github repo, and it seems to work.

It may be useful to someone so I thought I'd post the link:

RE:

A number of years ago they announced it was on the roadmap. But they won't commit to a release date and it didn't even appear as an option on their recent feature survey.

Now they've completed the major upgrade to .Net 6 they will hopefully have more resources for new features. But there's no sign that Renko/Range/Tick backtesting is a priority.

So I wouldn't be holding my breath.

Personally I'm developing my own solution. I'm using cTrader as a tick-feed, market venue, optimiser and reporter, but generating my own bars, indicators and charts.

This is non-trivial, but does give me the opportunity to test a wider range of bars. The cTrader feed is limited to classic Renko without tails and a limited selection of Range bar sizes, which is too limiting for my own trading.

RE:

This was on ICMarkets. 

As I say, the symbol was working fine for charts in the desktop client, and for a single-symbol Robot. 

It was only for your multi-symbol bot that the error occurred!

Just tried it again now the markets are open, and it's working as expected, so it seems it was some kind of strange artefact of weekend maintenance?

Even if there's no built-in feature, it should be possible to roll your own functionality fairly trivially with something like the ZeroMQ messaging library.

One of the attractions of .Net based platform vs proprietary languages is that it offers access to a huge ecosystem of battle-tested solutions.

Bump - any info on an ETA would be much appreciated!
