Backtest-stream-loads-not-all-Alpaca-symbols-on-Daily-data

How do you determine exactly that only a "small amount" is loaded? Is this partal data being loaded for all symbols, or some symbols have no data at all, or... you name it. Cannot decipher it from your problem report. Attach some screenshots of a chart, strategy window, Data Manager to show what's not right in your opinion. Right click to copy and paste data-related errors from the Log Viewer. Give us at least something to work with.

is aplaca working for daily chart

in all new data set I have hundreds of symbols, but only 6 are loaded, I just run it but I don't see any error in log viewer

It looks like an authentication issue, the response to Alpaca was "Forbidden."

It's working at our end:

Is this an Alpaca paper account? If so, try generating a new key and replacing the key in WL8.

I don't see any error logviewer today, the error was last night. 60 minutes works. daily not working. only loads 6 symbols today. no error logs

what does it mean use live data sip

Try generating a new paper account key in Alpaca and replacing the key in WL8.

for 60 minutes, it is loading data, but in the end, only give backtest result of 10 symbols. no error in log viewer

The "Live Data" option only works if you have a non-paper account AND you've subscribed to their paid data plan. If you haven't subscribed to Alpaca paid data, turn that Live Data option off.

I have turn off alpaca use wealth data, or yahoo, same problem

can you please create a dataset as mine and do a backtest

I suspect some of the symbol might cause the trouble

In the Data Manager, highlight your unlinked DataSet to activate the table view. Note how many bars the stocks have, are they up to date, and what is the source (the data is coming from). It's all there.

1. Wealth-Data only covers stock symbols in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 (and other selected stocks and ETFs).

2. Q-Data, Y!, and Alpaca will cover all the U.S. stock symbols.

3. You don't have a provider that will return the currency data in that format (e.g. USD/MXN)

Anyway, check ALL of the providers for the best chance to get all the data when you run a backtest with Daily bars. Alpaca can return some intraday data with the free API key, but it is sparse - only about 2% of the trading (so it's not a good choice). More about data here: https://www.wealth-lab.com/blog/wealthlab-data-providers

Note:
The first time Q-Data is used, there will be a 90-second delay, so you might want to leave that one unchecked.

I have 2 accounts of alpaca, one paper, one real money. How can I see both account? I only see paper account now

You would UNCHECK the box that says Use Paper Broker Account.
