What is it ? 📈

Passionate about the world of crypto and about development I decided to create a python library because I found very annoying for beginners to just run a simple backtest. Open Backtest got created to give apprentice but also confirmed programmers a powerful and easy to use backtesting tool

How does it work ? 🔧

Open Backtest is currently made with a core engine that use different classes, it can run a backtest with binance data and it can handle different timeframes. The library can also download and save data as a csv file to be able to load it to save a considerable amount of time. The wallet class will handle orders and the data handler will summarize and calculate all required data to analyze the backtest but also to plot graphs.

Requirements :
  • Pandas
  • Numpy
  • Matplotlib
  • Python-binance

All requirements will be downloaded and installed with Open Backtest installation

Doc 📝

The documentation will be divided in two parts, at the moment just one engine to run basic backtest is made but I want to add a lot of engines. The first part of the doc will show how to run a backtest with at the moment juste the only engine created. The second part of the doc will describe more technically the classes and functions that can be used if you already want to run a specific strategy like grid trading

Coming as soon as possible
