Implementation of OpenAI Gym environment for Backtrader

[Андрей Музыкин]

Hi all!
I'm working on a module for running OpenAI Gym environment on top of Backtrader engine.
The idea is to create realistic reinforcement learning setup for algorithmic trading tasks.

This is just personal project in alpha stage, do not expect it run smoothly or to be feature-full,
documentation is also yet to come, etc.;
nevertheless I invite everybody concerned to check it out:

Feedback and comments are welcome.

This is great. Im using a GradientBoostingClassifier for long short signals. Is this a trainable agent? I know it already learns from past values when put online.

This is awesome! Had looked around for similar projects, definitely will check it out! Thanks for the great work!

This is really cool, any thoughts as to what would be the best way to combine it with Tensorforce?

@андрей-музыкин This is absolutely amazing!!! I spent a whole week just reviewing the work you did... and I feel like I'm just scratching the surface.

mind blowing!!! thanks a lot for this contribution.

as this is very technical stuff, is there a place maybe to ask questions or exchange ideas?

love this project :)
