RE:

The deposit and withdraw on the 8th might explain why I had an extra trade on my copy account. However it does not explain why that trade was not closed once the correlated trade on the master account was closed. This seems to me as unwanted behavior/bug. Another strange thing is that this extra trade was not in place on all copy accounts of that strategy.

Also the events (many trades opened on the copy accounts which are not present on the master account) on the 10th are not explained by the deposit/withdraw done on the 8th.

RE: RE:

Same problem here, one "ghost trade" was open and got closed because the strategy provider stopped providing.

This was on a TopFX account, see details below

RE:

The screenshot below is of about 2 hours later, the strategy provider closed one position with a small profit and the equity increased with 3.52 Euro.

The All Time ROI increased with 20.07%, and the monthly ROI went from 94.51% to 131.37% for the month of October!

RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE:

The new version does not make any difference, it still displays the set EMA of the tick size used by the indicator.

e.g. in my case it shows the 20 EMA of the underlying 10 tick chart instead of the 20 EMA of the set 70 ticks in the indicator.

I can reproduce this on every computer I have lying around, with any broker version of cTrader.

Not sure why it does work for you

RE: RE: RE: RE: RE:

I tried on cTrader installs of different brokers, same issue.

Luckily a 140 EMA of the underlying 10 Tick chart equals a 20 EMA of a 70 tick chart so I can use that.

But the problem with your script has not been resolved.

Hopefully you will make the interval configurable sooner than later so these issues will be resolved

RE:

I tried the latest version of the overlay indicator (V1.2.0.0) and still gives me the same faulty result, see image below.

I have tried restarting the application but no luck.

I use IC markets  Raw Trading version 4.1 (latest)

RE:

I've updated to the new overlay version, still same issue.

Why not make the tick, renko and range user configurable, then it will also work by default with bots

RE: RE: RE: RE: RE:

I just tried that but it seems not to work.

In the image below you see the following setup:

EURUSD set to 10 ticks

CustomTickChart set to 70 ticks

20 EMA with as source "Close" in yellow

20 EMA with as source "CustomTickChart Close" in red

Both EMAs have the same output, that is obviously not correct.

What else can I try to get this to work?

Hi Amusleh,

 

Thank you for your response.

I'm aware of these custom indicators, but they are a workaround of the actual problem.

These indicators do draw the custom interval but when you want to add other indicators like a simple SMA or EMA it will not work.

It seems it is possible to rewrite the code of the SMA or EMA to use the output of the mentioned indicators above but this is no solution when using proprietary indicators.

It would be better to tackle the problem at the source so any indicator / bot can be used with custom intervals.

Hi,

You can use the above indicators output as source for other indicators if they have a source parameter.

Can you point me to how to do this exactly? Like I would like to use a 20EMA on a CustomTickChart of 70 Ticks

Please make the interval for Tick, Renko and Range user configurable.

At the moment we are bound to the predefined values which sometimes match given strategies but most of the time not.

The intervals are chosen randomly it seems, like tick 10,20,30,40,50,60,80,90 are available but 70 is missing.

Tick and Renko have 1-9, where range has only 1,2,3,4,5 and 8 and so on.

 

Please delete this post, it meant to be in the suggestions part of the forum

Same here, I lost 777,91 Euro on it. Sort of luck it happened last night as I was thinking about investing a lot extra today.

I wonder why they give the option for strategy providers to charge per volume as well, it does not make any difference for the provider if they open positions of 1K or 100K.

In my opinion it only opens an easy way for fraud without an easy way to protect yourself as copier from it, for certain strategies you cant set an equity stoploss as their strategy needs a lot of "breathing" room.
