@Jalal-Ahmadi Hi.
What do you mean "for optimization"?
Yes, it works.

Hi, everyone. New update of both repos.

All goals in MQL5-JSON-API was done.
Pending orders in Backtrader-MQL5-API was finished.
We will start production testing next week.

New update of both repos.

MQL5 JSON API is finished. Historical data load speed was optimized. I have to finish various features like:

• expiration
• deviation
• hedging
• error handling docs
• etc.

Reconnection and data uploading after reconnection were added to Backtrader-MQL5-API The main goal for now is to finish pending orders management.

@ciceron hi again.
I was wrong. Oanda broker has StopTrail implementation.

if order.exectype == bt.Order.StopTrail:
    okwargs['distance'] = order.trailamount 

https://github.com/ftomassetti/backtrader-oandav20/blob/master/btoandav20/stores/oandav20store.py

I didn't have any practice with Oanda broker, so i don't know how stoptrail works on Oanda side. But your understanding is correct for backtesting.

Hi Ciceron.

As i see Oanda broker doesn't have trailing stop implementation. Only:

# Order type matching with oanda
_ORDEREXECS = {
    bt.Order.Market: 'MARKET',
    bt.Order.Limit: 'LIMIT',
    bt.Order.Stop: 'STOP',
    bt.Order.StopLimit: 'STOP',
}

Hello everyone,

I have released Backtrader-MQL5-API stable beta. MQL5 has complex order management logic, so i have some headache implementing it to backtrader. )) Only market orders working right now. It will take some time to finish pending orders.

self.position doesn't work too. Because of threading next happens several times before position approval returns from MQL5. @backtrader Do you have any idea how to fix it? Thanks.

Hi. I think that you should add exectype param.

p1 = 100
p2 = p1 - 0,01 * p1
p3 = p1 + 0,01 * p1

self.buy_bracket(price=p1, stopprice=p2, limitprice=p3, exectype=bt.Order.Limit)

I use PyCharm Pro.

I have released stable beta MQL5 JSON API. Most part of the documentation is also ready. See it on github.

Backtrader MQL broker stable beta is almost ready too. Don't use alfa release of the broker. The code would not work because MQL side was refactored.

Hi. I wrote an example strategy for you. You can access the indicator lines through the name in __init__ method.

class CryptoStochRSI(bt.Strategy):

    params = (
        ('stoch_k_period', 3),
        ('stoch_d_period', 3),
        ('stoch_rsi_period', 14),
        ('stoch_period', 14),
        ('stoch_upperband', 80.0),
        ('stoch_lowerband', 20.0),

        ('take_profit', 0.04),
        ('stop_loss', 0.01),

        ('size', 20),
        ('debug', False),
    )

    def __init__(self):

        self.stoch = StochasticRSI(k_period=self.p.stoch_k_period,
                                   d_period=self.p.stoch_d_period,
                                   rsi_period=self.p.stoch_rsi_period,
                                   stoch_period=self.p.stoch_period,
                                   upperband=self.p.stoch_upperband,
                                   lowerband=self.p.stoch_lowerband)

    def next(self):

        if not self.position:
            close = self.data.close[0]
            price1 = close
            price2 = price1 - self.p.stop_loss * close
            price3 = price1 + self.p.take_profit * close

            if self.stoch.l.fastk[0] < 20:
                self.buy_bracket(price=price1, stopprice=price2, limitprice=price3, exectype=bt.Order.Limit)

            if self.stoch.l.fastk[0] > 80:
                self.sell_bracket(price=price1, stopprice=price3, limitprice=price2, exectype=bt.Order.Limit)
