Building WAE Trading System

Hi I have the full source for Waddah Attar trading Robot, however when i am building the Waddah Indicator i get the error "Package Telegram Bot is not supported". Can you help?

Hi, Adam,

I can help you with this.

Tell me the steps you are following, are you using Visual Studio 2022 and have you added all the indicator project references?

If you are getting the error with the WAE Explosion indicator then this could happen if you do not open with Visual Studio 2022, it should look like this.

I would build all the indicators, open the cBot project, make sure the project has a reference to each indicator and then build the cBot.

You can add indicator references from the cTrader Automate application as usual.

If you get stuck just post on here again.

So i was building the indicator within Ctrader Automate and not within visual studio. When i open the project in visual studio i have exactly what you have in the above image. Does this imply that Waddah indicator cannot be built within Ctrader Automate?

I have opened the cbot in Visual Studio and i still error about the indicator referencing even though i have included them in the project

This is an easy one to fix.

Only use Visual Studio 2022 to open the cBot project.
Remove all the project references for the indicators.
Open each indicator in Visual studio on its own and build each one.
Use cTrader Automate to add indicator references to the cBot project.
Edit the cBot with Visual Studio 2022 and all your project references will be correct.

You can also use Visual Studio to add project references for each indicator's project file if No. 4 fails, but the easiest way to add indicator references is through cTrader Automate.

You need to use Visual Studio for building the project because cTrader Automate is not able to include the NuGet packages like the Telegram bot.

is there a way i can see the logs in detail?

I fixed the issue, essentially the Average True Range Indicator was missing the 1st parameter during initialization in the cBot.
I made the following change:
_atr = Indicators.GetIndicator<ClickAlgoAverageTrueRange>(false,ATRMaType, ATRPeriod, ATRWeight, ATRUseHighAndLow, false, 1, 1, 70);

Thank you very much, I will get Mike to fix this and also improve the installation documentation

Mike is back at work tomorrow, he will help you with this, make sure you are using the same broker and backtest settings.

The results should be identical.
