Hi, I have written my code just like strategy example but it won't run anything. Please help me.
Strategy code:

class TestStrategy2(bt.Strategy):

    def log(self, txt, dt=None):
        ''' Logging function for this strategy'''
        dt = dt or self.datas[0].datetime.date(0)
        print('%s, %s' % (dt.isoformat(), txt))

    def __init__(self):
        # Keep a reference to the "close" line in the data[0] dataseries
        self.dataclose = self.datas[0].close

    def next(self):
        # Simply log the closing price of the series from the reference
        self.log('Close, %.2f' % self.dataclose[0])

Datafeed:

class PandasData(bt.feed.DataBase):
    #linesoverride = True  # discard usual OHLC structure
    # datetime must be present and last
    #lines = ('Signal',)
    params = (
        #('dtformat', '%Y-%m-%d'),
        #('datetime', -1),
        #('time', None),
        ('open', 1),
        ('high', 2),
        ('low', 3),
        ('close', 4),
        ('volume', 5),
        #('Signal', 6),
        ('timeframe', bt.TimeFrame.Days),
        ('compression', 1),
        ('openinterest', None)
    )
    # datafields = bt.feeds.PandasData.datafields + ([
    #     ('Signal')]
    # )

Running:

ready_data = PandasData(dataname=strategy_data2)
cerebro = bt.Cerebro()
cerebro.adddata(ready_data)
cerebro.addstrategy(TestStrategy2)
cerebro.broker.setcash(1000000000.0)
cerebro.run()

in the jupyter it gives this:

[<__main__.TestStrategy at 0x150489c3ba8>]

but running in normal file gives nothing. At least I want it to log the close, so, I can make that cerebro is working on my data.
Please help me. Thanks

@Arta-Asadi @backtrader14 can you please help.

@cynthiameow Edit: Done that but it raises same error.

My data is like formall example of docs. I don't think type is the problem.

Hi, I have a custom pandas dataframe with a pre-calculated signal column. The data time frame is daily, so it does not have any time, instead, it has date.
Data:

	Date	        open	  high	low	close	volume	Signal
0	2019-08-24	14645.0	15200.0	14400.0	14824.0	982174	0
1	2019-08-25	14824.0	15565.0	14824.0	15388.0	1207412	0
2	2019-08-26	15388.0	16157.0	15617.0	16150.0	560070	0

I want to define a strategy to buy or sell on signal value.
My strategy:

class TestStrategy(bt.Strategy):

    def log(self, txt, dt=None):
        ''' Logging function for this strategy'''
        dt = dt or self.datas[0].datetime.date(0)
        print('%s, %s' % (dt.isoformat(), txt))

    def __init__(self):
        # Keep a reference to the "close" line in the data[0] dataseries
        self.dataclose = self.datas[0].close
        self.datasignal = self.datas[0].Signal
        #self.test = 'test'

    def next(self):
        # Simply log the closing price of the series from the reference
        self.log('Signal, %.2f' % self.datasignal)
        self.log('test')
        if int(self.datasignal) > 0:
            #print('cheked')
                # BUY, BUY, BUY!!! (with all possible default parameters)
            self.log('BUY CREATE, %.2f' % self.dataclose[0])
            self.buy()
        if int(self.datasignal) < 0:
            self.log('Sell, %.2f' % self.dataclose[0])
            self.Sell()

and my datafeed class:

class PandasData(bt.feed.DataBase):
    linesoverride = True  # discard usual OHLC structure
    # datetime must be present and last
    lines = ('Signal',)
    params = (
        ('dtformat', '%Y-%m-%d'),
        ('Date', 0),
        ('time', None),
        ('open', 1),
        ('high', 2),
        ('low', 3),
        ('close', 4),
        ('volume', 5),
        ('Signal', 6),
        ('timeframe', bt.TimeFrame.Days),
        ('compression', 1),
        ('openinterest', None)
    )

Main code:

ready_data = PandasData(dataname=strategy_data)
cerebro = bt.Cerebro()

cerebro.addstrategy(TestStrategy)
cerebro.adddata(ready_data)

And running the cerebro:

cerebro.broker.setcash(1000000000.0)
cerebro.run()

gives me this error:

Please help how can I resolve the problem.
