I am using the backtesting.py library https://kernc.github.io/backtesting.py/doc/backtesting/index.html
What is this error? UserWarning: Data index is not datetime. Assuming simple periods, but 'pd.DateTimeIndex' is advised. bt = Backtest(data, test2, cash=100000, commission=.002)
import pandas as pd
from backtesting import Strategy
from backtesting import Backtest
data = pd.read_csv('I:/algotrading/BTCUSDT.csv')
data.columns = ['Time','Open','High','Low','Close'];
class test2(Strategy):
def init(self):
pass
def next(self):
# OHLC
self.open = self.data.Open
self.high = self.data.High
self.low = self.data.Low
self.close = self.data.Close
if(self.close > self.open):
self.position.close()
self.buy()
elif(self.close < self.open):
self.position.close()
self.sell()
bt = Backtest(data, test2, cash=100000, commission=.002)
stats = bt.run()
print(stats)
bt.plot()
This code required a set_index.
data = pd.read_csv('BTCUSDT.csv', index_col='Time', parse_dates=True)
