Time travel and back testing
10 Oct 2014, 17:24


Hi all,

    I might have missed this but I'll ask anyway.

I'm looking at a robot which does certain things at certain times of the day - it's using datetime.utcnow in order to determine the time.

when I back test this algo it compares to NOW not to the tick.now - is there any way for me to do this in back testing?

 

Thanks,

Paul.
