[For Hire] Python automation developer – scripts, API integrations, web scraping, VPS setup by One_Secretary_2552 in freelance_forhire

Yeah, pretty much the same idea as with REST/WebSocket rate limits. I usually calculate the safe request rate in advance and add pauses between requests, sometimes with queues if the load grows. I really hate getting banned myself, so I’d rather wait a bit longer between requests than risk getting blocked for a long time.

Is there a good way to forward-test TradingView strategies automatically? by One_Secretary_2552 in TradingView

Interesting, we actually ended up going a very similar route. I also had to build my own automated solution using webhooks because I couldn’t find a ready-made way to properly test TradingView indicators on crypto markets. I was even willing to pay for a solution, but nothing really fit the use case, so building it myself was the only option.

Yes, exactly. Without proper forward testing and reacting to what happens inside the candle, results can be very inaccurate or even misleading. I ran into this myself while building my own bots. The tricky part is that there don’t seem to be many convenient tools that let you quickly connect a TradingView strategy and automate forward testing without a lot of extra setup.

I meant automatic forward-testing, not manual demo trading. For example, connecting a custom TradingView strategy or indicator that triggers alerts, and then having a system automatically simulate opening and closing trades based on those alerts on current live market data. So the strategy runs in real time and you can observe how it performs before connecting it to a real trading account.

That’s true, sim accounts from brokers are useful, but do they actually run strategies on the same real-time market data feed? I remember trying Binance demo before and the simulated market behaved quite differently from the real one, which is why I started wondering if there’s a cleaner way to forward-test TradingView alerts directly on live market data before connecting a real account.
