Increase the speed of the backtest calculation by caching the calculated candle data - klitze2 - 03-05-2019

I am new to Geko and do not know the architecture in detail. Obviously, each backtestĀ calculation uses the minute data from the database. For multiple calculation of a strategy with unchanged candle size, e.g. 24 hour candles, the calculation would beĀ faster. The daily candles would have to be cached during the first calculation of the strategy (database / memory) and could be used again for the subsequent calculations.

Am I correct?
