Estrade is a python library that allows you to easily backtest and run stock trading strategies at tick level.
Estrade focus on providing tools so you mainly focus on your strategy definition.
WARNING: Estrade is still in an alpha state of developpement and very unmature. Do not use it for other purposes than testing.
Estrade provides a market environnement, so you do not have to worry about
- Trades result calculation
- Indicators building & calculation (candle sets, graph indicators etc.)
Estrade is build to be extended so you can define your own:
- Strategies
- Tick provider (to feed your backtests and/or live trading)
- Indicators
- Reporting
- Data: You have to define your own data provider (live or static)
- Strategies: Although some very basic (and useless) strategies are provided as examples in samples, Estrade does not provide any financially relevant strategy.
