cTrader Desktop 4.6 Introduces cBots Fault Tolerance, New Methods in Automate API, and Backtest Improvements

FinanceFeeds Editorial Team

Spotware has shared the release of a new version of cTrader Desktop 4.6, which offers multiple valuable updates to cTrader Automate, as well as a whole range of convenience perks for manual trading.

The new cBots Fault Tolerance feature allows cBots to keep on running even when unhandled exceptions occur, proving for a more productive job with no interruptions. Users can now also benefit from backtesting cBots on Renko and Range charts.

The release further sees an addition of several new Automate API methods to calculate order volume or Stop Loss distance based on risk, as well as opens up a whole variety of user convenience improvements – from easy currency conversion and algo instance ID differentiation to the ability to export cBot optimization settings for future re-use, and using local storage to persist data without requesting full access.

Spotware’s Head of Product, Alexander Strelnikov, says, “cTrader Desktop 4.6 is a very useful release for our algo developers and cTrader Automate users. From highly-user-requested additions, such as backtesting on Renko and Range charts, to the very critical ones for users’ algo operations, such as cBots Fault Tolerance. Additionally, the release sees minor, yet pleasant convenience perks, alike Custom Mouse Wheel Action and easily definable Color Parameter Types.”

Please feel free to discuss the new additions and ask any follow-up questions via the cTrader Community Board, cTrader Official Telegram channel, or Facebook Group.

FIA urges CFTC to regulate use cases rather than AI itself

“We urge the CFTC to refrain from crafting new regulations that generally regulate AI because this approach presents certain well-known pitfalls. By approaching the issue from the perspective of AI as a technology, rather than the use case for the technology, corresponding regulations would likely necessitate a definition of AI. We anticipate that any attempt to properly define AI would be very challenging and require considerable resources.”
