Quote:Guys, why papertrader does not download 'required warm up data' from the exchange and calculate parameters on them. Is this possible ? Who can enlighten me
Right now Gekko can "import" data from all supported exchanges, but this was never the case before. And as soon as update more exchange integrations this won't be true anymore. Also importing is an extremely slow process on most exchanges due the API rate limits. So when you "click" backtest over 1 year of data you don't have to wait one week for your backtest to complete (of which importing was a week and running the backtest less than a minute).
