Backtest historical signals ?
01 Jul 2022, 18:46

Hello

I have a CSV (Commas Separated Values) file with some signals that I want to backtest.
How can I do that ?

Example:
Date, Pair, Direction, Entry, TakeProfit1, TakeProfit2, TakeProfit3, Stoploss
2022-01-01 00:55:41 UTC, BTC/USDT, long, 30000, 31000, 32000, 33000, 25000
2022-01-01 00:55:41 UTC, ETH/USDT, short, 3500, 3400, 3300, 3200, 4000
...

 

Thanks

RE:

The instructions show how to load historical market prices. What I want is to emulate a strategy's calls (signals).
