CheapTrader 0.1.3

Install

• Installer (CheapTrader-0.1.3-setup.exe) or the portable zip (CheapTrader-0.1.3-win64.zip: unzip anywhere, run CheapTrader.exe).
• You need Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit). For real prices and trading, install MetaTrader 5, log in to a (demo) account and leave it open: the welcome tour finds it by itself.
• Windows may say "Windows protected your PC" because the program is not signed: click More info, then Run anyway. Compare your download with SHA256SUMS.txt (Get-FileHash <file> -Algorithm SHA256).
• Orders from the app are off until you switch them on in the MetaTrader menu. Trading carries a high risk of losing money: try it on a demo account first.

What is in 0.1.3

• Installing an update from the program now ends with the program open again. In 0.1.2 the update was installed, but
  the program did not come back: it stopped with the message "Failed to load Python DLL" and had to be started by
  hand. The program that was being replaced passed its start-up information on to the new one, and that pointed to
  temporary files which were deleted when the old program closed. The update now starts the new program fresh.
• Updating from 0.1.2 still ends with that message once, because it is 0.1.2 that opens the new version. The update
  has worked by then: click OK and start CheapTrader. From 0.1.3 on the program restarts by itself.
• The notes in the update window no longer break in the middle of a sentence.
