General Discussion / Testing against historical data
« on: September 17, 2017, 02:21:16 AM »
I noticed a lot of people testing settings and tweaking using real money. It would be nice, if possible, if an instance of gunbot could run and output a pair's settings performance against historical data.

something like:
gunbot -test -bittrex btc-eth bb

and have it create a file that's easy to read (or chart) and take into account fees to see profitability. I'm not sure how much historical data can be pulled dynamically, so I guess an alternative would be to run gunbot without buying / selling and just have it collect data to test against. 

Obviously past performance is no guarantee of future performance, but something like this might really help the community fine tune strategies without risking our actual money. Another benefit would be to show new traders how things like stop losses and step gain vs bb work.

Cheers.
