September has been a milestone month for AlgoBuilderX, bringing exciting new features, improvements, and content. We’re proud to share that we’ve now reached +1,600 verified users in total and over 17,000 cBots generated on our platform since launch. These numbers represent the growing strength of our community and the value our tools are delivering to traders worldwide. Let’s dive into what made September such a fantastic month.
1. View Real-Time Code for Quick Copy
Our Professional plan users now have access to a new “View Real-Time Code” button in the toolbar. This feature allows you to view and instantly copy the source code of your current project. No more exporting .algo files every time—just copy and paste directly into cTrader for a smoother, more efficient workflow.
2. New Features for “Check History Trade” Block
We’ve expanded the capabilities of the “Check History Trade” block by adding more filtering options. You can now filter past trades based on the following criteria:
- Lots
- Net Profit
- Net Loss
- Pips
- Commission
- Swap
- Balance
You can apply up to 7 conditions simultaneously, giving you greater control over your strategy development and backtesting analysis.
3. Enhanced “Get Trades Info” Block
We’ve also enriched the “Get Trades Info” block to provide more filtering options for open trades. You can now filter by:
- Lots
- Commission
- Swap
This gives you a more refined view of your current trades and allows for better decision-making during real-time trading.
4. Pass Once Per Bar
We’ve revamped the “Counter” block (again), making it more compact and better organized. A key new feature is the “Pass Once Per Bar” option, allowing the block to execute only once per candle, even within the onTick event. This provides precise control over conditions throughout the formation of each candle and prevents multiple trades from opening unnecessarily, solving the issue of excessive trade entries.
5. Round Result to Decimal
We’ve introduced a new feature in the “Formula” block! By enabling the “Round Result” option, you can now specify how many decimal places to round the result to before saving it to a variable. This is particularly useful for resolving rounding inaccuracies that can occur due to the way decimal numbers are represented in binary, which often leads to extra, unwanted decimals. It also offers flexibility for those who want to fine-tune specific price levels and manage custom price points with precision.
6. Get AlgoBuilderX for Free
We’re excited to announce new partnerships with three brokers, offering you the chance to get the Premium plan of AlgoBuilderX free for up to a year! If you’re interested in this offer, visit our dedicated page for more details.
7. Complete Guide to Backtesting and Optimization
We’ve published a comprehensive guide on how to perform step-by-step backtests in cTrader, including strategies like walk forward testing and tips to avoid overfitting. If you missed it, you can find the full guide here.
8. Bug Fixes
As always, we’ve worked diligently to address bugs reported by our users. We value your feedback and are grateful for your continued support in improving the platform.
Upcoming Updates
We’re not stopping here—here’s a sneak peek at some of the exciting features coming soon:
1. Custom Indicator
We are working on allowing users to import external indicators, which will then be fully interactive within AlgoBuilderX for condition creation and strategy development.
2. Market Properties Enhancements
We are planning to enrich the “Market Properties” block by adding more features and functionalities to enhance its capabilities.
3. Internal Updates
Alongside these new features, we’re also focusing on updating and improving our infrastructure to ensure a smoother and more reliable experience for all users.
