That’s it, I’m done with Zipline. I can’t take it anymore. Does anyone have any other good backtesting libraries in Python where I can use my own personal data? Thanks in advance!

  • The real "gotcha" though is as you start to progress, bring in more data, more experiments, more complexity, longer runs, having some Python basics in place is key. I spent more time on "infrastructure" than on actual modeling and backtesting, and I decided to publish some of these challenges around memory, disk, processing speed, and iteration. https://github.com/scollay/caffeinated-pandas
