### Create Backtest
# Define placeholder compilation ID (replace with actual value)

# Send a POST request to the /backtests/create endpoint to create a backtest
response = post(f'{BASE_URL}/backtests/create', headers=get_headers(), json={

})
# Parse the JSON response into python managable dict

# Extract the backtest ID from the response
backtest_id = result['backtest']['backtestId']
# Check if the request was successful and print the result
if result['success']:
    print("Backtest Created Successfully:")

### Read Backtest Statistics
# Prepare data payload to read backtest statistics
payload = {
    "projectId": project_id,  # ID of the project
    "backtestId": backtest_id  # ID of the backtest to read
}
# Send a POST request to the /backtests/read endpoint to get statistics

# Parse the JSON response into python managable dict
result = response.json()
# Check if the request was successful and print the statistics
if result['success']:
    print("Backtest Statistics:")
    print(result)

### Update Backtest
# Send a POST request to the /backtests/update endpoint to update backtest details
response = post(f'{BASE_URL}/backtests/update', headers=get_headers(), json={
    "projectId": project_id,  # ID of the project
    "backtestId": backtest_id,  # ID of the backtest to update
    "name": f"Backtest_{backtest_id}",  # New name for the backtest
    "note": "The new backtest name is awesome!"  # Additional note
})
# Parse the JSON response into python managable dict
result = response.json()
# Check if the request was successful and print the result
if result['success']:

    print(result)

### Delete Backtest
# Prepare data payload to delete the backtest
payload = {
    "projectId": project_id,  # ID of the project
    "backtestId": backtest_id  # ID of the backtest to delete
}
# Send a POST request to the /backtests/delete endpoint to delete the backtest
response = post(f'{BASE_URL}/backtests/delete', headers=get_headers(), json=payload)
# Parse the JSON response into python managable dict
result = response.json()
# Check if the request was successful and print the result
if result['success']:
    print("Backtest Deleted Successfully:")
    print(result)

### List Backtests
# Prepare data payload to list backtests with statistics
payload = {
    "projectId": project_id,  # ID of the project
    "includeStatistics": True  # Include statistics in the response
}
# Send a POST request to the /backtests/list endpoint to list backtests
response = post(f'{BASE_URL}/backtests/list', headers=get_headers(), json=payload)
# Parse the JSON response into python managable dict
result = response.json()
# Check if the request was successful and print the list
if result['success']:
    print("List of Backtests:")
