A config-driven backtesting framework for algorithmic trading built on Backtrader, with 20+ built-in strategies and multi-market support (US/Taiwan stocks, crypto, forex). It includes a CLI for running backtests and fetching market data, plus an integrated MCP server so LLM assistants like Claude can run backtests and analyze strategies.

- run algorithmic trading backtests from yaml config files
- fetch historical market data for stocks crypto and forex
- let claude run backtests via mcp server
- test technical indicator strategies like sma crossovers
- build custom trading strategies in python
- quick backtest on a csv of price data

- you need multi-market support across US stocks, Taiwan stocks, crypto, and forex
- you want LLM/AI assistants to trigger and analyze backtests through MCP
