Thank you. I've made a new way to establish position according to my likings.
Regards
@Transform Domain: 21 May 2023, 00:45
Thank you!
I've uploaded a new version in order to force even numbers for some parameters.
For a better performance, try to establish the parameter "Height" to 500 or 1000. If you don't do it, some extreme values will be missed,
Regards

@Desktop new release doesn't work: 11 Apr 2023, 22:24
Since the last update I've had some issues using the desktop app. It's impossible to work with It. For example i cannot access the indicators to change parameters, i cannot resize windows, etc. Many problems with the user interface.
Thanks!

Hello,
I've had the following error message trying to find the bug:
The last version of my robot is "naked" -shown below- but still with the same problem: an error is thrown for high steps in parameters. Maybe my Ctrader is corrupted... I would appreciate an answer to resolve this problem. Thank you.

The last version is still with the same error. If Dx Step is 5 works fine. It DX Step is 10 works wrong:

I've deleted many lines in order to find the bug, even I've replaced my class TradeException -using only the class Exception- but nothing changes. I've found the solution but it's so strange: when the value of the step in the parameter Dx is 5 then the bot works fine. I cannot understand this behaviour, maybe my Ctrader is corrupted and I need to install it again...
I show the last version of my bot -with the same problem-

Hi all.
This post is related to cTDN Forum - Historical data corrupted? (ctrader.com) Unfortunately I still have the same problem. The skeleton of my bot is shown bellow and still has a strange behaviour: (for EURJPY H1, from 1/1/2018 to current date) with the first set of parameters the optimization process works fine, and with the second set of parameters the process does not show any result and the time runs with no end, like that:
Parameters OK:
Parameters NO OK:

Hi Abstract,
Can you please provide us with the cBot source code and the optimization settings so that we are able to reproduce this problem?
Best Regards,

Hello, Panagiotis.
It was my fault. There were some divisions by zero in some situations. I've fixed this issue and now it's working fine.
Thanks a lot.

cBots are built without source code by default. For the cBots to include the source code, you need to explicitly select the Build with Source Code option.

@Historical data corrupted?: 08 Aug 2021, 21:01
Hi all.
I've experienced some problems in optimization since the new version was installed. I think it's due to corrupted historical data, but i'm not sure.
When the optimization process is made with USDCHF nothing happens -see image below- even the stop button dosn't work. So I need to restart Ctrader and avoid USDCHF in further optimizations. But then Ctrader doesn't work properly for other pairs, with random errors. Then I need to restart my computer in order to resolve the problem.
I've tried to refresh the historical data -right button and refresh- but I find the same problem.
Thanks in advance.
@Delete source code: 08 Aug 2021, 20:29
Hi all.
I would like to delete the source code of my bots and leave only the 'executable' code. How can I do that?
Sorry if it's duplicated, but I don't find any answer.
Thank you.
@Session Password: 08 Aug 2021, 20:09
Hi all.
I'm concerned about hacking and would like a session password -or similar- to protect my bots and prevent malicious behaviour. For instance, if no human activity for some minutes then Ctrader will be protected with a password meanwhile the bots are running.
I don't know wether that feature already exists or another way to prevent me from hackers, but it would be very useful in my opinion.
Thank you.
