@Dennis-Musingila ![

Here is the graph its producing

try adding the observer manually with different bardist

    cerebro.addobserver(
        bt.observers.BuySell,
        barplot=True,
        bardist=config.get("plot_bar_dist", 0.001))  # buy / sell arrows

removed custom config code from example:

    cerebro.addobserver(
        bt.observers.BuySell,
        barplot=True,
        bardist=0.001)  # buy / sell arrows
