Backtrader only as a signal generator.

[George Muravei]

Hi! I need help with some approach of using backtrader. I'm using it to test strategies using bt indicators and now I'm trying to get live BUT: I'm going to trade crypto on Binance and use freqtrade for it (to not implement logic of buying/selling by myself). The main question: is it possible to use it in that way returning signal from bt instance? Just something like this:

buy_signal = backtrader_instance.next(OHLV_data[0])
# buy_signal False or True or Whatewer

Really cant find anything in docs :(

@hghhgghdf-dfdf Tanks for reply. I checked this out and from I saw it is not suited my requirements (or I missed something). But in that context I need to use backtrader.indicators (a.e. backtrader.indicators.LaguerreRSI) outside backtrader as usual indicators. Is it possible?
