Hi Louis , and thank you for the amazing tutorials,
Just having a hard time achieving the :
if (self.Time - self.stopMarketOrderFillTime).days < 30:
The number is very large , something like 736771 ??
I am using lean CLI with Pycharm debug, Do I need to use the portal to satisfy the condition? maybe time zone?
Best Regards

Hello,
I am getting an error saying, 'QCAlgorithm' not defined.
I have entered the code myself, and copied it from here.
Does QCAlgorithm not exist anymore?
Thank you,
Anthony

Hello Louis!
I get error on this line: self.entryTime = datetime.min
Seems like lowercase “datetime” is not defined and has no attribute “min”

Hello Shahrokh Kamyab
I was not able to see any error with “self.entryTime = datetime.min” while cloning and running the older code.
The only thing missing in the code was “from AlgorithmImports import *”
Let me know if you still face the same issue!

I have resolved the date time issue, but every time I run the back test it only completes one order. The past data should be the same, so it should result in the same number of orders. Where am I going wrong?
