3 year USDT-BTC backtest - jcdude - 07-09-2019
Hello
I need some help conducting a 3 year backtest on the neuralnet_v2 strategy.
I downloaded the data and tried through the GUI but it just times out.
Does anyone have a config.js file that will allow me to run the test from the command line?
I am battling to get it to select my 3 year batch and run the test.
I need some direction as I keep getting this error when I run it from command line:
config.paperTrader.enable is 'undefined'

Have you setup a config file? Also when you do backtesting you don't need a paper trader (paper traders are live traders that trade with fake money on the exchange... nothing to do with back testing)
UPDATE: If you are kinda new to Gekko and want to use it on the command-line for backtesting, this video might get you started https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p65mH9ogenc
