no module named cryptoalgotrading #10

Closed Chau1985 closed 3 years ago

Chau1985 commented 3 years ago

When running cryptoalgotrading.py file I get the following error: import cryptoalgotrading.var as var ImportError: No module named var

And other files says there is no module named cryptoalgotrading.

Are you trying to run cryptoalgotrading.py or you got this error importing it? Have you tried the 'How to start' section in README.md?

I have tried two things:

  1. I tried to run test.py file, where I got the message that there is 'no module named cryptoalgotrading'
  2. I also tried running the cryptoalgotrading.py and I got the 'import cryptoalgotrading.var as var ImportError: No module named var' message.

I have followed the README.md till the script section. Actually after that I don't really understand how to activate the program. I am just trying to figure it out with the knowledge I have on Python

You shouldn't run cryptoalgotrading as a program. Instead, you need to import cryptoalgotrading to be able to use it in your programs. Cryptoalgotrading alone will not do anything, it is a lib. You can follow the examples in here. You can run it using Python3, in Ipython or Jupyter notebook for example.
