Hello there,
I wonder about these things. Maybe it is technically not feasable at this point .. I don't know.
1. History strorage convention
Right now I have separate *db-files (i.e. poloniex_0.1.db). The importer and the mimic to join segments is working for me, but sometimes very slow and unstable. I saw a thread offering history data, that will speed things up and not everyone would need to do the same time consuming thing.
Wouldn't it be nice, if the naming convention would identify a db file by trading plattform (exchange), currency and asset?
poloniex_USDT-BTC.db for example. This is only a question up to discussion.
2. Something like "Hot-Start"
History data is mandatory for technical indicators, no way around this.
But, is it already possible, to start (Paper- or Live-Trading) with any given size of history, which is not aggregated continuesly from reading new coming data, but by retrieving all the needed history size from the past before the start of the strategy? So basically an importing - process.
When all missing candles were collected/imported to join a complete history of the demanded size to the actual point in time, the strategy would then be allowed to make trades.
Regards,
Rainer
