Rounding of stock prices #5

Open mayankrasu opened 6 years ago

mayankrasu commented 6 years ago

The returned bricks have rounded stock prices. Can the rounding be turned off/made optional by any chance? For a stock with lower notional stock price, this rounding can have significant impact on the P&L.

By the way...great job so far.

Did you try with a brick_size of 0.5 or smaller?

mayankrasu commented 6 years ago

yes I did. Refer below snapshot for example. Brick size is 0.25. The open, high, low and close prices have been rounded before adding the delta.
