@backtrader Thank you!! I didn't realize I needed an external thing, but it actually works now. Can finally get to the actual fun part of coding out the strategy.

Hm, when I try to pip install backtrader v20, I get an error in the command prompt (oh, I'm on a Windows system):

I'm not sure if that's the main issue, backtrader itself seems to be isntalled. However, if I proceed and try to import the package with

from .btoandav20 import OandaV20Store

I get this error:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '__main__.btoandav20'; '__main__' is not a package

I do have the btoandav20 folder in my directory. Thanks for all the help, I've been struggling with this for a while. Even tried with a friend that's a little bit more IT savvy and he couldn't figure it out either. I installed Visual C++ Tools and added the cl.exe to my PATH, and I jsut get a different error (error: cl.exe failed with exit status 2).

@dasch I think it does, but just in case, can you tell me if I'm doing something horribly wrong if I go through it step by step?

1. I'm using the Anaconda distribution, so I do msot stuff through the Anaconda prompt.
2. I run a "pip install backtrader" in the Anaconda prompt, it runs
3. I clone the btoandaV20 github repository into some folder on my PC (wherever my script is saved)
4. I navigate Anaconda prompt to that folder and run a "pip install v20"

That sound right or am I missing something?

@dasch I'm trying it and would love to keep using it, but I can't even seem to get past the set-upstage. No matter what I try, I always get an error saying

AttributeError: module 'btoandav20.stores' has no attribute 'OandaV20Store'

Tried manually installing it, pip installing it and just putting the whole folder into the same directory as my script, nothing really helps. If I add

from btoandav20.stores import oandav20store

I just get

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'v20'

So it seems I get errors every step of the way, even with just the sample script from the github repo...

@backtrader Ok, I'll see what I can do. This isn't meant as a prod or anything, but will the v20 eventually be supported by the "official" Backtrader? Just so I know if I should invest lots of time in trying to make it work now (not in a hurry), or wait until someone who actually knows their stuff does it.

@backtrader A previous post mentioned that oandapy was based on an older version of the oanda API. I guess I assumed wrong, but that's why I posted this question on a platform frequented by people far more knowledgeable than me.
Thanks for the link, I'll check it out.

Hey everyone!

I'm trying to get the Quickstart example to work with Oanda EURUSD data instead of the provided csv example. I'm a Oanda customer (in Europe), I've generated the API token and installed OandaPy through pip. I was hoping I would get a similar output to what is shown in the quickstart guide (starting equity, some close prices, final equity). However, the code doesn't seem to be getting any data from Oanda and only prints out the equity twice.
Just as a disclaimer, I really appreciate what you're doing with Backtrader, I love the concept of it. I'm just not a very experienced programmer and it's difficult for me to learn stuff from just the documentation, without a bit of input.

Create a 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

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


if __name__ == '__main__':

    # Create a cerebro entity
    cerebro = bt.Cerebro()

    # Create oandastore
    oandastore = bt.stores.OandaStore(token = token, account = account)
![alt text](image url)
    # instantiate data    
    data = oandastore.getdata(dataname='EUR_USD', 
                       compression=1,
                       backfill=False,
                       fromdate=datetime.datetime(2018, 1, 1),
                       todate=datetime.datetime(2019, 1, 1),
                       qcheck=0.5,
                       timeframe=bt.TimeFrame.Minutes,
                       backfill_start=False,
                       historical=False)


    # Add the Data Feed to Cerebro
    cerebro.adddata(data)

    # Set cash of default broker
    cerebro.broker.setcash(10000.0)

    # Add a strategy
    cerebro.addstrategy(TestStrategy)

    # Print out the starting conditions
    print('Starting Portfolio Value: %.2f' % cerebro.broker.getvalue())

    # Run over everything
    cerebro.run()

    # Print out the final result
    print('Final Portfolio Value: %.2f' % cerebro.broker.getvalue())

I know there's been a similar post recently, but I assume that installing OandaPy avoids the issue of V20 not being supported? Or, does Oanda simply not work at the moment? If anyone has any advice on why this isn't working, I'd be super grateful!
This is the output I get.
