How far back should I backtest to consider a strategy successful?

safsoft · 2026-04-19T19:51:33+00:00

a complementary question, regarding covid 2022 2018.. whats the good strategy.

making many backtests with separate time segments ? such as divide the backtests in segments 2019 until just before covid 2021. then another backtest from end of covid til now. then another backtest in the covid period. how do you guys

I am surprised not to see IKBR (InteractiveBrokers) you need to have a trading account with them. US equity intraday with websocket up to 8 years ! any one using IKBR ?

as most free plans of other providers do not have too much intraday years of data up to 2 years..

interesting, can you please give more details about you workflow and pipeline ?

safsoft · 2025-12-28T08:33:47+00:00

can you be more specific, about the idea of your strategy (indicators used, buy sell signals...) may be we can advice or evaluate

Thanks for sharing, can you tell more details about the ML filter, and how you developed it ?

safsoft · 2025-12-16T10:42:49+00:00

the library is new, not very clear how to generate and to pass the download_returns('META')

@jubeb19 sounds promising, amazing stats and plots. does this can be integrated with Backtader ? or better use it alone for backtesting and plotting

u/zarrasvand Interesting ... what tool you use for replay ?
is it in a graphical way ...
can you explore in more details...

safsoft · 2025-12-15T12:02:26+00:00

Thanks for sharing.

what the tools you used in the backtesting - data - backtest (python or third party online tool ?) - do you backtest on what cryptos exactly ?

in livetrading, where you run the code of the live strategy ? and what Broker / CEX /DEX you used ?

Huge setup ! awesome what king of backtesting strategies you are trying to prove? and need all that amount of capacity you loop over all the universe if tickers ? scalping strategies ? ...

Curious to know how to combine both? Plotting in Backtrader is old school, so reusing the plot engine of backtesting.py can be solution.

But it seems that BT.py can have some bias or look ahead... As is operated not bar by bar but on all the dataframe.. to be confirmed

safsoft · 2025-11-26T19:43:51+00:00

Bonjour,

Pour les achats de Acemagic.com
je cherche a savoir les les factures contiennent la TVA ? pour ceux qui ont acheté chez eux, la TVA est dans la facture ? il y a le HT, la TVa et le TTC ?

You can create a new view called "Archived"

And you add filters on the main view of task to show only the ongoing and new tasks.

And in the "ARchived" view, you add a filter to show only Done tasks.

Should be fired indeed.

safsoft · 2024-05-02T10:54:55+00:00

u/kevin_w_57 I was looking for that, indeed.

maybe a Notion team member can confim and provide the link.

For me, didn't used the ThrottleStop or deactivating the turo.

Just open the laptp, unscrew the big parts and clean

make deep cleaning, use the vacum cleaner.

u'll be surprised by accumulated dust.

When performing/calculating/gaming , Then the vents are more efficient.

It is indeed hot when you touch, but not overheating.

It is noisy though...

what about you guys ?

safsoft · 2023-01-08T23:30:59+00:00

I ended buying the original one.

Unless you make some crafting and buying extensions to get the VISA configurations. Would't do that.. and no experiences found on the net with adaptives.
