Backtest log location - Guysmo - 08-13-2018
Hi,
I want to read all logs write in backtest mod in order to debug my strat but I can't find where they are.
Gekko/log is always empty, maybe something isn't enable.
Thanks

Backtests generate a LOT of logging (especially if you have debug logging turned on), this fills up your disk as well as make backtests slower.
I can help you enable it, but first can you help me understand what kind of information you want to get out of these backtests?

I would like to print all log.info() and log.debug() from a strategy.js, to help me to understand how things are working.
Thanks

Backtests runs through the UI have surpressed logging, and we have to jump through some hoops to enable them again.
I'd recommend running Gekko over the CLI: this gives you more control, see this: https://gekko.wizb.it/docs/commandline/about_the_commandline.html
It boils down to:
- open up sample-config.js and configure your market
- run `node gekko -c sample-config.js -b`
and voila
