Hi, Daren,

Can you provide more information so we can help you.

What cBot are you using?
When you optimise, what error message do you see?
When you back test, what error message do you see?

Can you explain in more detail what doesn't work?

by the way i tried optimisation on windows and i never saw it it endinig optimisation on another cbots from another developers

developer did the cbot - i asked him about that - he said he dont have mac so he dont know
its not eror messege its 2 results : 1st optimisation - print 100 results aprox all of them without details how much net
equity net profit etc... - all empty and stop the process
2nd optimisation - 3 results - same - no meaning and process is "continueing" - the
elapsed time continue run but - process do nothing
3.leave the backtest-try please to resolve the optimisation big problems-on windows backtesting is very good on mac i
clicked on the arrow to start - the arow disapear and the pause and stop buttons apear but even in the visual mod -
nothig happens - no backtestin process no chart - time mot runing

Hi Daren,

Thank you for your message.

We understand how frustrating this issue must be for you. From your description, it appears the problem is related to how the cTrader platform handles optimisation and backtesting on macOS or within a VPS environment, particularly with a cBot developed by a third party.

As we're not affiliated with Spotware (the developers of cTrader), and this cBot wasn't developed by us, we're limited in the support we can provide. In cases like this, your best course of action is to contact the developer who created the cBot directly. They will be in the best position to debug or reproduce the issue with their code, especially if the behaviour differs across platforms.

If you suspect this could be a platform-level issue, we also recommend contacting Spotware's support or posting the details on the official cTrader community forum:

We're happy to assist with any of our products. If you're using one of our cBots or tools and need help, please let us know.

Optimise and backtest using Virtual private servers is not powerful enough and will take a very long time to run. Use a powerful PC instead.
