Here is my datafeed code:

ibstore = backtrader.stores.IBStore(host='127.0.0.1', port=7497) cerebro.setbroker(ibstore.getbroker()) data_backfill = ibstore.getdata( dataname='ES-202209-GLOBEX-USD', timeframe=backtrader.TimeFrame.Seconds, historical=True, fromdate=now.date(), compression=1, ) live_data = ibstore.getdata( dataname='ES-202209-GLOBEX-USD', timeframe=backtrader.TimeFrame.Ticks, compression=1, backfill_from=data_backfill, qcheck=0.1 ) live_data.resample(timeframe=backtrader.TimeFrame.Seconds, compression=1) cerebro.adddata(live_data) cerebro.resampledata(live_data, name='ES_two_minute', timeframe=backtrader.TimeFrame.Minutes, compression=2)

And here is the output when I run it:

If this issue is known and has been addressed, please let me know. Otherwise please look into this so that myself and others are able to trade ES using Backtrader.

i guess i found out, same problem was already dealt here: https://community.backtrader.com/topic/2381/simple-ma-crossover/5

@ard9000

Once again I will share the answer to my own problem.

There wasn't enough cash to execute the target orders. I forgot the default BT broker doesn't appear to add to the cash position when selling short.

It now works as expected.

@kk7134 Is this community.backtrader.com board still active it seems like there is just nothing happening. Then there is people posting for homework writing and yoga spam, where is the backtrader community active?

Hi, thanks for the interesting information. When I was studying, I also constantly worked with similar services, and it was very profitable. Good for my time, health and education. I usually used this service And he has not failed, but as they say a good enemy to the best so you should always try something else, for comparison

@mattmar10

I ran into a similar problem with pandafeed.py converting from csv to datetime object.

I solved it by updating pandafeed.py to check the type of the tstamp from the csv. If it is a string change it to a pandas datetime.

Add in a reference to pandas and check tstamp for type.
