Hi,
Help needed for runing simple macd algo on local csv daily candles data.
Folowing the tuto I've put my zip containing one csv file as folows:
.../Data/future/usa/daily/sb.zip (with sb.csv file inside the zip)
And inside my algo template initialization I'm calling
var future = AddFuture(Futures.Softs.Sugar11);
and of course overriding OnData(Slice data) method.
But still 0 data points processed after running backtest.
Anyone managed to use local csv data?
Thanks

Hi Dimitar; I'm not sure futures daily data works. We only support up to minute resolution in the QuantConnect system so there's been no testing at that level. I can't make any recommendations if it'll work or not..

Hi Jared, thank you.
Actually i'm trying to backtest some strategies on back/forward- adjusted (panama) daily series so it's just like any other kind of daily candle data.
May be I will try to use it as any other kind of "equities" data.
Will give feedback on...
