It seems you are importing, could you post your import config?

This is the only file I've altered. Poloniex is returning an error also when trying to run the bot.

Strange, for me it works fine:

When you say:

Now, when I launch the bot it displays an error while trying to gather GDAX history.

What exactly are you doing with Gekko? What command are you running etc?

ElscottHavoc commented 7 years ago

Odd...so I deleted the folder and pulled a fresh copy from GitHub, copy and pasted my config file and now it seems to be running fine.

I'm really not sure what the problem was.

askmike commented 7 years ago

great stuff!

Dedicated62 commented 6 years ago

Hate to tag onto an old thread, but I'm getting this error on Windows 10...and I did download the ZIP again into a new folder and the manual import still gives me error. The length of records is changing on "Scanning Back", meaning it doesn't fail import command line in the same place each time. It fails in the UI too. I'm attaching the screenshots

import command line

child has died

greenbigfrog commented 6 years ago

@Dedicated62 unless I'm completly mistaken, this is in no way related to the issue described here. YOu should rather open a new issue.
