- Fix backtesting_service compilation after merging dead code removal - Remove orphaned trait impl methods (check_data_availability, get_sentiment_data, create_backtest_record, update_backtest_status, store_time_series_data) - Wire up OHLCV fields (open/high/low/volume) in baseline strategies: MA crossover uses bar range for volatility filter and bullish bar detection, buy-and-hold adds volume-based liquidity filter - Remove TimeFrame enum (unused, all data is minute bars) - Simplify NewsEvent to unit struct (sentiment fields were never populated) - Remove dead extract_features method and bar_history buffer from MLPoweredStrategy Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

- gRPC API for Backtest Execution: Exposes a clear API for submitting and managing backtesting jobs.
- Strategy Testing and Validation: Enables comprehensive testing of various trading strategies under different market conditions.
- Performance Reporting: Generates detailed reports including metrics like P&L, Sharpe ratio, drawdown, and win rate.
- Data Replay Engine: Accurately replays historical market data, simulating real-world order book dynamics and trade execution.
- Results Persistence: Stores backtesting results and reports for historical analysis and comparison.
gRPC API
The backtesting_service exposes a gRPC API for initiating and retrieving backtest results. Key endpoints include:
RunBacktest- Submit backtest configuration and strategyGetBacktestResults- Retrieve results for completed backtestsListAvailableStrategies- List registered strategiesGetBacktestReport- Get detailed performance report
Running the service
To run the backtesting_service binary:
cargo run --bin backtesting_service
Data Requirements
