Hi guys,

My cTrader application took an update this morning, and backtesting is extremely, extremely slow after the update. The version indicated is 3.7 and the update seems to have made MarketSeries obsolete in favour of a new API for "Bars". I've updated my bots to use Bars instead of MarketSeries.

Backtests that were taking 10 seconds to complete previously are now taking 5 minutes to complete. Results are identical.

Any ideas?

Thanks

 

Same thing !!! Backtesting NOW - ULTRA SLOW :((((((((

My cTrader application did an update last night, and the backtesting is slow and almost impossible to finish in tick mode.
and it is slightly different ... even in bar mode it is slower than usual ...
my robots that i use are very complex and require a lot
of virtual memory.
I thought at first that my computer had a failure but after checking everything is fine ... especially that I have a competition machine .. !!! last generation...
the new features are great, but backtesting is now impossible ... a test on a simplified robot that lasted about 5 minutes lasts more than an hour,
and on a more complex robot the backtesting is not finished after several hours.
optimization will be impossible.
my broker is peperstone ...
how to correct or cancel this update
cordially

 

Yeeep... Agree with that. BACKTESTING NOW is UTRA SLOW...maybe x3 or x4 time slower...
