Hi, have you followed the instructions in the readme file and do you have programming experience?

This source code has been upgraded from .NET 4.x to NET 6 for cTrader version 4.2 and above.

There may be some API warnings with some of the obsolete methods, these are not errors and the projects will compile fine, you can at any time upgrade the code for the new API to remove these warnings, they will not affect the performance of the system in any way.

99% of the current cTrader cBots and indicators will have warnings due to the latest update.

HOW TO INSTALL

==============
When you unzip the file you will see two folders.

Copy and paste the contents of the indicator folder to the documents > cAlgo > sources indicators.
Copy and paste the contents of the robots folder to the documents > cAlgo > sources robots.
Open cTrader Automate.
Build all the indicators.
Build the cBot.

Make sure you have downloaded and installed Visual Studio 2022, you can download the free version below.

https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/community/

Right click your mouse on the indicator or cBot in cTrader automate and choose "edit source code", Visual Studio 2022 should open.

If you have any errors or issues installing and opening with Visual Studio 2022 you can contact support here:

Dear Sophia,

Thank you for your email.

I followed the steps one by one, I downloaded the zip file and unzipped it.

I copied all the indicator files.
I copied the robot folder.
restart the application.
is not allowing me to Build any of the indicators.
is not allowing me to build the robot.
I downloaded Visual Studio 2022.

Kindly see the attachment.

Waiting to hear from you.

Building the news manager is impossible as this is provided under license and without the source code.

I copied the indicators into the correct folder, opened cTrader and they were shown, I then built one of them upgrading to NET 6. If you are using cTrader Beta, it may have bugs, use a broker version.

Mike

Update
I just opened cTrader again and the indicators were missing, this looks like an issue with the latest cTrader update, I will investigate further, a quick fix would be to open the indicator project in Visual Studio, fix the algo reference if required and build the indicator, you should see it appear in the list and a new indicator algo file will be built.

When you build the WAE indicator it builds as an indicator named indicators, this is a platform bug, you can rename the indicator in cTrader automate after you have built it.

How to build indicators & cBot
I would open each indicator project one at a time in Visual Studio and build, you should see the indicator appear in the list, also, do this for the cBot project, you may need to add project references. The best way forward is to open the WAE trading system project and add a project reference to each of the indicators and then build.

I am using Ctrader real account Version 4.5.9.13513,

the bundle I bought is Waddah Attar Trading system & Source code 299.99£
Ctrader Forex News Manager 9.99£
Ctrader News Calendrer API 0£

according to the description it all should be download and work together.

I Upgraded to NET6 as you said but my problem is I cant see the indicators or the Bot in Ctrader I can see them only in the original folder, C:\Users\Sinan\OneDrive\Documents\cAlgo\Sources\Robots
as for the news folder it shows in Ctrader but it doesn't do anything no line nothing, not as I read and see in the description in the website

Mike

ok, the news manager does not include the source code, you purchased this as a separate product, you will need to register the product to get it to work and you do not need the source code for it to work with the WAE system. You can read the user guide and watch a video tutorial on the product page.

You need to start with one indicator "ClickAlgo Average True Range" and copy the folder to the indicator folder of cTrader.

C:\Users\[user]\Documents\cAlgo\Sources\Indicators

Open the folder of the indicator and open the project file with Visual Studio, once it is open build the project, and the indicator file will appear in the indicators list in cTrader Automate.

Do this first and let me know how you get on.

If you are new to cTrader you will need to learn about adding cBot and indicator instances.

If you have limited programming experience I would request help from a programmer or use our custom development service.

Hi,

Am back again, and honestly I tried my best to do everything you said, and I tried very hard to make it work but unfortunately it didn't.
in some point I thought to my self am gonna become a programmer.

As you can see in the attachment, its appear in the list now but noting acutely working, and when you back test it it give you a result of one straight line.

Kindly if this cant be fix like any other softwire you have in your website where I can just download it and start using it with my setting, I don't wont it and I would to cancel the purchase of the product and I would like a refund.

thank you

Mike

Hi, Sinan,

You need to open a cBot instance to access the settings and get it to work, take a look at the link below for help.

https://clickalgo.com/how-to-add-cbot-instance

As you have purchased the source code, I will send you the indicators files that I have already built so they will work by adding an instance, I can see from the picture you shared that this has not been done.

Hi, I am not connected with clickalgo, but I trade full time and use the WAE trading system with my team, from what I can see from these posts is that you may be new to using cTrader for algo trading, Mike is right you need to add a cBot or indicator instance to get started, but that's just the start, there is much to learn, I would start by learning cTrader, Spotware have a very good help site. https://help.ctrader.com/ctrader-automate/

I would start by learning this first before you start buying bots, there is nothing wrong with the cBot you purchased, you just need to do some studying on how to use them, do some research first and reach out if you are stuck.
