Feature Request: Back Testing (backtesting)
« on: July 07, 2017, 01:33:35 AM »
I would like very much to be able to tweak settings and not have to wait several hours to see their impact. Is there some way that we could PLEASE get backtesting?

@Gunthar - I saw one of your posts where you gave us a link to TV where we could see what Gunbot sees?...

https://it.tradingview.com/chart/RH3bybW9/

Another question - In the above chart you have setting of (ohlc4, 10, 20) but I thought we were setting as vwa?

Could you explain if there's anyway for us to do our own backtesting, it sure would cut down on your level of support requests.

Thanks!

Reading the API for Poloniex at least, there is the ability to pull down 50,000 trades in one call with "trade history". It certainly seems doable.

Backtesting would be a significant contribution to GunBot

no back testing feature? Even a simple bot like cryptohopper has this feature.

Gekko bot (also free) has backtesting too.
