optstrategy not working in Jupyter
-
Im trying to run a simple example using optstrategy in a Jyputer notebook and it simply just hangs. Any ideas?
Here is the code:

(with all possible default parameters) #self.log('BUY CREATE, %.2f' % self.dataclose[0]) # Keep track of the created order to avoid a 2nd order self.order = self.buy() if self.dataclose > self.bband.lines.top and not self.position: # BUY, BUY, BUY!!!

@Søren-Pallesen I've heard that jupyter doesn't support multiprocessing. This can be a reason of the error.

See this: https://community.backtrader.com/topic/612/optimzation-question/
Any shell which hijacks the initialization of the Python kernel is bound to have problems with the
multiprocessingmodule under Windows. Google shows some other references from the past:

Thx for prompt answers. Love this community for that. Any way to use optstrategy without multiprocessing?

- Option 1:
maxcpus=1(disable using multiple cores) - Option 2: You give GvR a call and tell him that in 2017 (with 2018 not being that far away) the GIL may no longer be such a good idea. It may be worth a try.
- Option 1:

Funny and knowleble. Rare combo 🤣. Thx again will give maxcpus a shot. Shame though when you have a 12 core i7 ...
