psar

[nima021]

hello
I am working on strategy and I have problem in converting Parabolic SAR indicator from pineScript to python and using in backtrader.
in pine the refrence code of calculation is:

psar = ta.sar(start, increment, maximum)
start (simple int/float) Start.
inc (simple int/float) Increment.
max (simple int/float) Maximum

but in talib the refrence code are:
real = SAR(high, low, acceleration=0, maximum=0)

and in backtrader refrence code Params are:
bcktrader.ind.PSAR(period, af, afmax)
period (2)
af (0.02)
afmax (0.2)

i found :
increment val= af and maximum=afmax but I couldnt find any refrence in what happened for start? my start is 0.11 and its float and can not put start = peroid because period can not be float
how can I add start value to backtrader strategy?

@nima021 I had a reference script for psar, hopefully this helps.

import backtrader as bt

class Strategy(bt.Strategy):

    params = (
        ("period", 2),  # psar period ('start' in pine)
        ("af", 0.005),  # psar af ('increment' in pine)
        ("afmax", 1),  # psar
    )

    def log(self, txt, dt=None):
        """ Logging function fot this strategy"""
        dt = dt or self.data.datetime[0]
        if isinstance(dt, float):
            dt = bt.num2date(dt)
        print("%s, %s" % (dt.date(), txt))

    def print_signal(self):
        self.log(
            f"o {self.datas[0].open[0]:7.2f} "
            f"h {self.datas[0].high[0]:7.2f} "
            f"l {self.datas[0].low[0]:7.2f} "
            f"c {self.datas[0].close[0]:7.2f} "
            f"v {self.datas[0].volume[0]:7.0f} "
            f"psar {self.psar[0]:5.0f}"
        )

    def __init__(self):
        self.psar = bt.ind.PSAR(period=self.p.period, af=self.p.af, afmax=self.p.afmax)

    def next(self):
        self.log(f"period: {self.p.period}, af: {self.p.af}, afmax: {self.p.afmax}")
        self.print_signal()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    import time

    cerebro = bt.Cerebro()
    start = time.time()
    data = bt.feeds.GenericCSVData(
        dataname="data/2006-day-001.txt",
        dtformat=("%Y-%m-%d"),
        timeframe=bt.TimeFrame.Days,
        compression=1,
    )
    print(f"time {(time.time() - start)}")
    cerebro.adddata(data)

    kwargs = dict(
        period=3,
        af=.004,
        afmax=.9
    )
    cerebro.addstrategy(Strategy, **kwargs)


    # Execute
    cerebro.run()

@run-out thank you very much dear
as I read 'start' in pineScript == 'period' in backtrader?
I had set it on both pine script and backtrader and it worked.
But my problem is that set value of start pram = 0.11 in my strategy pineScript and I get good result
but when I wanted to convert it to python:
set value of period pram must be = 0.11 but when I give the value to period I have eroor:
TypeError: 'float' object cannot be interpreted as an integer
but when I give period=2 that works!
but I have to give period=0.11
can you help me pls?

Stump removal is a form of landscaping and it's one of the most popular forms of lawn care. You need to follow this Stump Grinding Rotorua and get more new skills for construction. You might think that stump removal is only for extremely large or dense trees, or those in commercial areas where space is limited. But you'd be wrong. A stump removal is an important part of removing old trees from your property. Stumps must be cleared away from your house, driveway, or any other place that you don't want them to stay.
