Issue with version control - lumibot.backtesting not working!

[AAlhendi1707]

I was folloing the instructions, I have created conda env and all required installed successfully with no error.

conda create -n trader python=3.10
conda activate trader
pip install lumibot timedelta alpaca-trade-api
pip install torch torchvision torchaudio transformers

I've added my alpaca API key then when I run tradingbot.py hit the following error, which seems to be associated with

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Creating indicators plot...

After that I tried to track down the issue so I started with example here on https://lumibot.lumiwealth.com/backtesting.yahoo.html

from datetime import datetime

from lumibot.backtesting import BacktestingBroker, YahooDataBacktesting
from lumibot.strategies import Strategy
from lumibot.traders import Trader

# A simple strategy that buys AAPL on the first day
class MyStrategy(Strategy):
    def on_trading_iteration(self):
        if self.first_iteration:
            aapl_price = self.get_last_price("AAPL")
            quantity = self.portfolio_value // aapl_price
            order = self.create_order("AAPL", quantity, "buy")
            self.submit_order(order)

# Pick the dates that you want to start and end your backtest
# and the allocated budget
backtesting_start = datetime(2020, 11, 1)
backtesting_end = datetime(2020, 12, 31)

# Run the backtest
trader = Trader(backtest=True)
data_source = YahooDataBacktesting(
    datetime_start=backtesting_start,
    datetime_end=backtesting_end,
)
broker = BacktestingBroker(data_source)
strat = MyStrategy(
    broker=broker,
)
trader.add_strategy(strat)
trader.run_all()

which also results in similar error shown below

So I think it is the issue with lumibot version I would suggest that update the installation section with requirements.txt so that we can that we can replicate your work.. e.g.

# from nicknochnack pc
pip freeze > requirements.txt

then on our to replicate your work we can run

# using pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

# using Conda
conda create --name trader --file requirements.txt

Looking forward to your reply.. thank you
