Backtrader 简介

先说几句题外话，Backtrader 到底谁在用？一下内容转自backtrader官方网站中References部分：https://www.backtrader.com/home/references/who-is-using-it/
Who is using it
我简单说几点：

1. 2家 Eurostoxx50 银行
2. 6家量化私募
   不过这些都是很早以前的数据，还有一些做能源交易的对冲基金。
   reddit里面有个algo trading 板块，里面有人提了backtrader到底有多火的问题？一下引用了部分：
   No. There is not a list. This is actually outdated: the number of banks remains at 2 (there may be more, but I don’t know it), but there are more than 6 firms using it for internal purposes, including for example companies working in energy markets, due to the compensation feature which allows buying and selling different assets which compensate each other (this is probably not available in zipline) which allows to model using spot and futures prices (this is a particularity of energy markets to avoid having the actual goods delivered to you)

The thing here is that one would have to define usage. I can for example quote what someone from one of those banks told me: “we use backtrader to quickly prototype our ideas and backtest them. If they prove to be what we expected and after further refinement, they will be rewritten in Java and put into our production system”

This is actually the same scheme which one of the Quant firms (which I personally visited) used: prototyping in backtrader and production in Java.

As you may imagine I don’t track the lifes of those using backtrader, so it may also be that some of the banks and companies decided to no longer use backtrader.

I do also guess that some banks and quant firms use zipline following the same scheme.
