Alpaca Backtrader #43

Hello, I was reading https://alpaca.markets/learn/backtrader-01/ and tried to implement it, but the alpaca backtrader api seems to be outdated. Are you still using it or have you moved on from Alpaca and Backtrader?

Hi there -- I have indeed moved on. I still think backtrader is great.

Do you happen to know how I can still use Backtrader with Alpaca with live/paper trading, not backtesting? And not using alpaca_backtrader_api

leosmigel commented 1 year ago

There were a few traders running backtrader with Alpaca in the Alpaca Community. I would check there.
