RE:
Hello,
There some things that need to be clarified before trying to sell a Robot:
1. In a demo account rarely you see a request being rejected or failed to be sent.
How does your robot handle failed requests sent to the broker ? Does it auto retry ?
2. The initial Balance in your backtests is $10000, I would like to see backtests with initial balance of $2000
Keep the good work.

Hi Everyone,
I have recently built a bot in cAlgo which is showing promising results in back testing using tick data and no martingaling. It works best with AUDUSD (as i was able to detect an unique pattern) and i have been testing it in live environment with very similar results.
I have one more bot on an Index CFD, again with tick data back testing results with no martingaling which is also live with very similar results as in back testing. Please find the back-testing results of them below.
Both of these bots are realistic and have high risk reward as i always seek at least 2 or 3:1 annualized return to max DD . This allows one to leverage if needed without blowing their accounts within limited risk appetite.
From 19 Jan 2014 - 15 Dec 2015
Total Return : 30%
Max DD : 6%
From 19 Jan 2014 - 15 Dec 2015
Total Return : 47%
Max DD : 6%
If anyone is interested in them, then please contact me "trend_meanreversion@yahoo.com"

Hello,
I am currently running several tests on XMT Scalper, by Capella. And besides awesome results on backtest, I am getting great results on demo. Like 100% profit per week, with low risk settings.
Unfortunately the EA scalper doesn't work so well on live accounts because Metatrader is too slow to handle the positions fast enough to become profitable.
So, I was wondering if somebody would be interested in partner, to try to translate XMT Scalper from mq4 language into cAlgo language.
I am sure this EA has a great potential, specially on a faster platform like cTrader.
If anyone is interested I can send you the code from the original EA.
Cheers,
@hichem

RE: RE: Scyware and Robotlink is NOT a scam!
A trustworthy comment from a user with only 2 messages! Seems like you created this account only to make this comment. Anyway administrators knows that kricka account is not affiliated with scyware.

Hi guys,
I've been using the Robotlink plugin and it works exactly as advertised. I had some questions about solving an issue involving stopping other robots from a main robot. I got very fast answers from the Scyware support team. They took their time answering every question I had and my problem was solved quickly. The Robotlink plugin is a piece of software that can be programmed to control other robots in various ways and I would say in my case it worked brilliantly.

Mr H Wanted more than examples on how to use RobotLink (samples which are available on our website), he wanted us to partner with him on his proejcts. We clearly responded that we are not open for partnership and we clearly suggested that he can request a refund in Paypal before the 60 days after the purchase.

Hi,
Please let me know approximately when you think you will be free to help me on my project.
While parts of the project are straightforward, I think others may prove challenging and while I am very grateful to receive help for free, I am a strong believer in fair and upfront deals. As I do plan to commercialise the project if it is successful, I think it is fairer to negotiate upfront a deal where we all benefit.
If you are happy to work with me on the development I think you should share in the success.. I have spent many hours researching and developing this method but I need to partner with a good developer to see the project realised.
We could agree a %of profit method, or a licence partnership or something.. Please let me know your thoughts.
Kind regards,
J

RE: t
If you knew how compilers work you wouldn't find it absurd. because x / y is evaluated before r. The compiler doesn't care if the result will be affected to a double when calculating x/y, for the compiler x/y is a division of two integers, thus the result should be an integer.
jeex said:
aTrader: that's exactly my point.
It's absolutely absurd that r = 0, while r is a double. If i want r to be have the value that suits a double, i have to typecast both numerator and denominator.
double r = (double)x / (double) y;I do not know of one language that does not use / as a simple devider with a double as result, but makes it as ambiguous as c#.

RE:
Yes it can be added to the API but internally it wouldn't be different from executing a condition on each Tick
Futuresmo said:
Thanks for reply hichem. To my mind it sounds like standard event in Positions class like Positions.PriceAttained
If you want to raise an event on a certain condition then there is no way it can be done without executing a condition clause. And since price changes at each tick, it should be done on each Tick. You can use a separate thread to do the calculations and to not block the rest of the robot, but it should be done on each tick.
comparing price on every tick is not going to use a lot of CPU resources.

I am more interested on custom event that will react on certain price attained oppose to comparing price on every tick that causes lots of CPU resources being used.

RE:
sum += position.NetProfit;
should be
sum += position.NetProfit + position.Commisions + positions.Swap ;
daemon said:
something like this:
double sum; protected override void OnTick() { sum = 0; foreach (var position in Positions) { sum += position.NetProfit; } if (sum > 0) { foreach (var position in Positions) { ClosePosition(position); } } }

RE:
Thank you.
Yes, reinstalling resolves the issue.
Spotware said:
This is identified as a ClickOnce issue. The most common way to resolve ClickOnce issues is to uninstall the application, and then perform the installation again.
If it does not help, we recommend to remove the ClickOnce file directory and install the application again.
Ho to clear the ClickOnce file directory:
Open C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Apps
Delete the folder 2.0
Reinstall the application

RE:
Wouldn't that expose .algo files to including malware ? I mean anyone can include anything in the .algo files and since the content will not be inspectable, a developer can put malware in the .algo file and no one can discover it.
Spotware said:
Starting from the next version algo files will be protected. Also, algo files will be automatically installed, so it will be easier to distribute them.
All referenced dll's will be included into the algo file.

RE: RE:
Actually you can disassemble cAlgo.exe and all the assemblies it use and verify yourself that the source code is not transfered from your local hard disk.
This is not an invitation to hacking or anything similar, just a way to verify.

I would like to take your word for it but I am placing my trust in your commercial software and assuming my code is safe. The forex industry is already corrupt so I wouldn’t expect anything different from the companies within this industry. Hence why I have asked if you follow any standards to protect the trader’s intellectual property from Spotware. Can you somehow re-assure me and the rest of the calgo users that our code is indeed private?

It is not possible for the code to be seen by Spotware. Your code is only accessible on the machine where cAlgo is running on.

RE: RE: RE:
Normally positions open manually have no Label. So to test if the position is a manually open position you test if position.Label != string.Empty or position.Label != null, not sure which one actually works. And off course that supposes that positions created by a robot should have labels

From the new API:
Positions.Closed+= OnPositionsClosed;
will handle all closed positions not only in the current robot
Hi Hichem.
Even if a position was closed manually in cTrader or by SL hit. How would you code that?
Thanks in advance
protected override void OnStart()
{
Positions.Closed += OnPositionsClosed;
}
private void OnPositionsClosed(PositionClosedEventArgs args)
{
if (args.position.Label != "m10_Robot" && args.position.Label != "m5_Robot") // only manual positions{
Print("Manually Position #{0} was closed", args.Position.Id);
}}
Is that code right?

Hello,
We have a Support Desk to answer your questions : http://www.scyware.com/support-desk/
We use Paypal so you can ask for refund at any-time if you're not satisfied with our product.
We don't use Phone support because we are a distributed team. We don't work in one office. And we prefer to use email exchanges to always have a trace of our message exchanges with clients.
We have no clients affiliated with the company. Actually, we are a small team of passionate developers. We are not a "company", we hate big companies.

Hi, I wanted to find out more about Scyware and its product ROBOLINK,
I have found it impossible to connect to their website so I would be interested in getting information from people on the Forum (not affiliated with the company) who are using their ROBOLINK.
Also please let me know how you have found post sales support. I ask this because, my experience so far has been that there seems to be a no telephone contact policy and emails are not returned promptly, and this is when I want to buy the software (so it worries me what would happen if I wanted support)
I just want assurance that they are reputable and honest.
If I end up using them I will post my experiences too on this thread.
Thanks in advance.

RE: DLL?
In that case you can create static methods within a Robot class to be reused. You should declare those methods as static to avoid instantiating a Robot object inside another robot. After compiling the first robot add it as a reference to the second one.
But using VS is the cleanest and the best way to do so.

And can that be done within cAlgo. I'm an OSX developer so i am already on thin ice here with cAlgo in a virtual Windows on my MacPro.
