Hi. Does anybody know how I can download crypto currency data so I can backtest it in Designer?
NK
I want to test the software before purchasing
NK
Is there a way to do this?
DZ
Hi! Do you want to download data using S#? Or you want to obtain data in csv using any way?
NK
hi Denis
NK
I would prefer to stay in one of StockSharp's programs
NK
But I get this
DZ
In current S# version some codes became not open-source and not-free.
DZ
What program/connector you use and see this message?
DZ
For backtesting you may find some data here: http://api.bitcoincharts.com/v1/csv/
DZ
Currently S#.API is open source only. Some app/connectors are free for use but without code.
NK
What program/connector you use and see this message?
This is for Kraken
NK
I will try with the CSV link you send above
JR
If you are ready for csv, one of possible way to obtain prices for most popular crypto-currencies (BTC, BCH, ETH etc) is to open trading account with one of MT5-enabled forex-brokers (IC Markets, Just2Trade etc), which supports crypto-trading, and after that to extract data from MT5 terminal.

@JaguarRX but prices from MT-brokers will be different from original as they usually include broker's "spread".
NK
@JaguarRX Ok thanks I'll look into that
NK
I have the Kraken data downloaded as CSV. Is there a help document on how to upload that into Designer? Any easy way?
DZ
It's better to backtest on data from stock on which you are going to trade. Brokers don't not always tell what stock they use.
