I wish to, but I can't. Binance itself does not have API-intergration on Binance Testnet. And the reason is pretty simple, they want to earn our money.

Let's check the questions below:

Q1: Do we need a lot of time and money to do testing to have a high win rate Trading Bot? Answer: Definitely yes. We will lose a lot money while doing testing (Which I already did when I started this project)

Q2: If we have a 100% win rate trading bot, who will lose the money while we are winning? Answer: Binance is the one who loses money.

Q3: Do you think Binance will let me develop a high win rate trading bot without having me to risk my money? Answer: I guess you already know the answer.

Therefore, if you want to do testing, your have to spend your real money, with minimum trade amount, which is the recommended amount on config.py.

Good Luck and Happy Trading!

I think we can store in a variable like wallet_money and only send the request when production

Other with other cases just calculate and show on console log

Controlled some option on config.py live sandbox: true

But I totally agree with you on the above points 🔥

Need to test on real money

I've done this in the beginning, however, i couldn't find a way to check the current status if I do so, which will lead to trouble on double ordering.

If you like to see the entry or exit, you can set live_trade = False in config.py. This will not trigger order with real money. However, backtesting with historical data and see the PnL result on this futures-omax is nearly impossible due to the strategy itself requires real time candlestick formation in the unit of seconds.

You can retrieve the candlestick and almost everything but you can't place an order using Testnet API. You can join this Telegram group and chat around, many are complaining about Testnet not working blablabla since last year till now, it is not working for some reason.
