So I used this code to fetch data from ibkr and save it to a csv which I use later for testing and training. So I must have changed something and I don't know what but the next() in my strategy no longer triggers on the incoming data when it used too. I have created datasets with this class before, I must have changed something that this doesn't trigger next anymore. I read the documentation multiple times and googled but I am puzzled what I have changed that next() doesn't trigger.
Code below:
from __future__ import (absolute_import, division, print_function,
unicode_literals)
import backtrader as bt
import datetime
import csv
class St(bt.Strategy):
def __init__(self):
csvfile = open('ES_Continuous_08-20-2020~08-21-2020', 'w')
writer = csv.writer(csvfile, delimiter=',', quotechar='|', quoting=csv.QUOTE_MINIMAL)
self.writer = writer
def logdata(self):
txt = []
txt.append('{}'.format(
self.data.datetime.datetime(0).isoformat())
)
txt.append('{:.2f}'.format(self.data.open[0]))
txt.append('{:.2f}'.format(self.data.high[0]))
txt.append('{:.2f}'.format(self.data.low[0]))
txt.append('{:.2f}'.format(self.data.close[0]))
txt.append('{:.2f}'.format(self.data.volume[0]))
print(txt)
self.writer.writerow(txt)
def next(self):
print("next called")
self.logdata()
def start(self):
print('Historical Data gathering is about to start')
def stop(self):
print('Historical Data gathering is finished')
def run(from_date, to_date):
cerebro = bt.Cerebro(stdstats=False)
ibstore = bt.stores.IBStore(host='127.0.0.1', port=7496, clientId=35, _debug=True)
data = ibstore.getdata(dataname='ES-CONTFUT-GLOBEX-USD', fromdate=from_date, todate=to_date, timeframe=bt.TimeFrame.Seconds)
cerebro.adddata(data)
cerebro.addstrategy(St)
cerebro.run()
cerebro.plot()
if __name__ == '__main__':
from_date = datetime.datetime(2020,8,20)
to_date = datetime.datetime(2020,8,21)
print("ES_Continuous_" + from_date.strftime('%m-%d-%Y') + "~" + to_date.strftime('%m-%d-%Y'))
run(from_date, to_date)
I know that data is flowing in because when I turn debug mode on I get data coming in

Any ideas on how to get next to trigger? Verify print statements are never hit and csv is not written too.
