@Pablo-Reyes-Almagro It works! thx!

As is shown in the attached image, how can I show the detailed time in "x=" stuff, like, "x=2019-05-15 09:30:00", which can be useful especially in backtests with minutes data.

Many thanks!

@backtrader Would you offer some vectorized implementation?
Many thanks!

@ab_trader Yes, that's one solution, but not vectorized one, I was wondering if there were any other with better performance.

Many thanks!

Sorry for the late reply.

My problem is, say, I already have a lot of codes available constructing all kinds of self defined indicators, but all these are not related to backtrader system at all. All these return pandas series as the exact indicator values.

How can I make these predefined indicators compatible with backtrader?

In my opinion, it requires a method like convert_series_to_line, which can make a pandas series into a linebuffer object (maybe call it in the init of strategy class).

Is there anything availble? Or how should I do?

Many thanks!

Hi,

I was used to do calculations with pandas data frame and the original talib. Then returned the results as a pandas series / python list, hoping it could work as an indicator in the backtrader framework.
I found it raises exception if I directly set the value to a backtrader line in Indicator __init__. I was wondering if there were any method that I can do the transformation.

Many thanks!
