I've made a simple trading strategy, which executes every 30 seconds. I've defined the strategy in a function:
def strategy():
# strategy
time.sleep(30)
print(f'The Result from the Trade is: {result}')
Then I run it through a while loop:
while True:
strategy()
It's definitely not the best implementation, but it works for only testing a strategy. It shows me the result from each trade. However, I want to let it run through the whole day and accumulate and store the result from each trade in a variable, so I have the final result from all the trades from the whole day.
I've been looking at how to make this happen, but I can't find anything for the structure I have. Can someone help, please?
If you want to sum up the value returned you can do the following
strategy_output = 0
while True:
strategy_output =+ strategy()
If you want to save all the values till the last loop you can mantain the value in a dictionary corresponding to execution time
from datetime import datetime
strategy_output_dict = {}
while True:
now = datetime.now()
current_time = now.strftime("%H:%M:%S")
strategy_output = strategy()
strategy_output_dict[current_time] = strategy_output
