bt doesn't have its own historical data. what broker implementation do you use?

as a guess - yahoo adjusted prices are used in bt by default settings. broker you used can have non-adjusted prices.

The adj close shouldn't be off by so much at such an early date. I double checked on yahoo finance and they are not. I cannot replicate the op error. @yanke_zulu will need to dig into the supplier of the data.

I was using the standard script for sample strategy, like below
if not ALPACA_PAPER:
broker = store.getbroker() # or just alpaca_backtrader_api.AlpacaBroker()
cerebro.setbroker(broker)

DataFactory = store.getdata # or use alpaca_backtrader_api.AlpacaData
data = DataFactory(dataname=symbol, historical=True, fromdate=datetime(2020, 10, 1), timeframe=bt.TimeFrame.Days)
