@New Hotkey - Deal Map:  23 Sep 2021, 12:43

Hi,

You can use automate API to add more hotkeys, as an example check our hotkeys tool cBot: Hotkeys Tool Robot | Algorithmic Forex Trading | cTrader Community

It allows you to show/hide deal map with an hotkey, you can modify it based on your needs or change it to an indicator so it will not lock your chart time frame / symbol while running.

Hi,

For orders you have the "trailingStopLoss" field, but for positions right now there is no such field to get this data.

Thank you for your message Amusleh,

Is there a way we could request for this feature in positions? As it is quite important to distinguish between stop loss and trailing stop loss.

Ryan.

Hi,

The trailing stop field for positions will be added on next version of API.

@Pending Orders Cancelled executed for other Pending Orders cancellation:  23 Sep 2021, 09:07

When your order #2 is cancelled then how it gets filled again? I didn't got it at all.

You can use order label/comment or a boolean flag to avoid executing your code on PendingOrders_Cancelled event handler when you cancel your other orders.

For Order#2 which is not filled, PendingOrders_Cancelled is called and in that ExecuteMarketRangeOrder is executed using the parameters passed by PendingOrders.Cancelled event. 

Orders "label/Comment" will not be unique, or to have a unique identifier.  Let me know your suggestion of unique identifier.

There should be a intermittent order state :  Executed - Cancelled, Not Executed - Cancelled

Hi,

I think there is a misunderstanding, I still don't know what's the issue you have.

Regarding unique identifier you can use Order/position IDs.

@variables from the indicator for use in the bot:  23 Sep 2021, 09:05

At the same time, there can be no confusion when calling several indicators of the following type.

ind0.Calculate(Bars.Count - 1);
ind1.Calculate(Bars.Count - 1);
ind2.Calculate(Bars.Count - 1);
ind3.Calculate(Bars.Count - 1);
ind4.Calculate(Bars.Count - 1);
           

Because on backtesting, the variable I call behaves strangely. Very strangely.

Hi,

I recommend you to use an indicator data series output to get data back from indicator, and if possible you can move your indicators logic to your cBot instead of referencing them.

If your indicators aren't using indicator data series output then move the logic to your cBot, use indicator reference only if your indicator has an output data series.

@Heatbeats not comming when sending your own heartbeats:  21 Sep 2021, 10:46

Hi,

You shouldn't use ProtoOAReconcileReq to keep your app up to date with account orders, use it only once and then use execution event to remove/modify/add new account orders.

Regarding Heatbeats, its a response to sending heartbeat, if you don't send any heartbeat you will not receive back an heartbeat message.

You should use a queue to send messages on a specific time interval so you will not reach maximum allowed messages number per second, otherwise you will receive an error message.

Please check our WPF sample code, there we have all of what I just said.

Well, I need to start with saying that I was accidently sending ProtoOAReconcileReq instead of ProtoHeartbeatEvent. Copy/paste... My bad. Is it that's why you commented about ProtoOAReconcileReq?

I have now changed my scheduler to send ProtoHeartbeatEvent and I see ProtoHeartbeatEvent comes every 30 secs again.

But you said that "if you don't send any heartbeat you will not receive back an heartbeat message." This is not true on my side. Even if I dont send a hearbeat, I still receive ProtoHeartbeatEvent every 30 seconds for some period. Sometimes it's 5 minutes, sometimes a couple of hours. But my key point is that ProtoHeartbeatEvent comes without me sending ProtoHeartbeatEvent.

Regarding exceeding the limits, I dont send that many messages to be able to exceed the limits. My application only listens for events.

What is WPF? Is it this source https://github.com/spotware/ctrader-open-api-v2-java-example? If so, that was exactly the code I used.

Here is our WPF sample: OpenAPI.Net/src/WPF.Sample at master · spotware/OpenAPI.Net (github.com)

Hi!

I see that the heartbet that usually comes every 30 secconds stopped coming after I started sending ProtoOAReconcileReq every 10 seconds to the API. Is it the right behaviour?

Thanks in advance!

@Pending Orders Cancelled executed for other Pending Orders cancellation:  21 Sep 2021, 08:29

amusleh said:

Hi,

The PendingOrders.Cancelled event will be called whenever a pending order is canceled, and that's how it should work.

I didn't understand your point on its not correct to call the Cancelled event when trader cancels the order, why?

If trader manually or a cBot via automate API cancels a pending order the Cancelled event will be triggered and the reason would be PendingOrderCancellationReason.Cancelled.

If the order had an expiry time and it got expired the Cancelled event will be triggered and the reason would be PendingOrderCancellationReason.Expired.

If the order got rejected before getting filled then the Cancelled event will be triggered and the reason would be PendingOrderCancellationReason.Rejected.

You can use the reason property to filter the event and only execute your code is the reasons is expired or rejected.

Hi

Case Scenario: Current Market price = 9.0

Cbot or Manually 5 pending orders are placed

Order#1 10.00 with StopLimitPriceRange  of  00.00 - 00.40 

Order#2 15.00 with StopLimitPriceRange  of  00.00 - 00.40

Order#3 20.00 with StopLimitPriceRange  of  00.00 - 00.40

Order#4 25.00 with StopLimitPriceRange  of  00.00 - 00.40

Order#1 is filled @ 10.10 

Order#2 is not filled @ 15.00 So the PendingOrders_Cancelled called, then the ExecuteMarketRangeOrder is executed and Order#2 is filled.

After Order#2, Cbot or Manually cancel other orders #3, #4, #5 PendingOrders_Cancelled is called and ExecuteMarketRangeOrder is executed possibly may get filled. which should not happen. And Cbot cannot be stopped as there are other function are being executed.

So Need details of the executed pending orders details, with these captured details ExecuteMarketRangeOrder orders are placed and executed or any other logic.

When your order #2 is cancelled then how it gets filled again? I didn't got it at all.

You can use order label/comment or a boolean flag to avoid executing your code on PendingOrders_Cancelled event handler when you cancel your other orders.
