Implementing the Technical library in freqtrade

[kobertkirk]

I'm trying to implement the Ichimoku cloud indicator in a strategy from https://cryptocue.io/ichimoku-strategy-with-freqtrade/.

ichi.py

`
from freqtrade.strategy.interface import IStrategy
from pandas import DataFrame
from technical.indicators import accumulation_distribution
from technical.util import resample_to_interval, resampled_merge

import talib.abstract as ta
import freqtrade.vendor.qtpylib.indicators as qtpylib
import numpy # noqa
from technical.indicators import ichimoku

class ichis(IStrategy):

# Minimal ROI designed for the strategy.
# This attribute will be overridden if the config file contains "minimal_roi"
minimal_roi = {

    "0": 1
}

# Optimal stoploss designed for the strategy
# This attribute will be overridden if the config file contains "stoploss"
stoploss = -0.1

# trailing stoploss
trailing_stop = True
trailing_stop_positive = -0.15
trailing_stop_positive_offset = 0.20 # Disabled / not configured
trailing_only_offset_is_reached = True

# Optimal ticker interval for the strategy
ticker_interval = '15m'

# run "populate_indicators" only for new candle
process_only_new_candles = False

# Experimental settings (configuration will overide these if set)
use_sell_signal = True
sell_profit_only = False
ignore_roi_if_buy_signal = False

# Optional order type mapping
order_types = {
    'buy': 'limit',
    'sell': 'limit',
    'stoploss': 'market',
    'stoploss_on_exchange': False
}

# Optional order time in force
order_time_in_force = {
    'buy': 'gtc',
    'sell': 'gtc'
}

    """

    return []

   :param dataframe: DataFrame populated with indicators

   :return: DataFrame with buy column
   """
   
    dataframe.loc[
        (
            (dataframe['tenkan'].shift(1)<dataframe['kijun'].shift(1)) &
            (dataframe['tenkan']>dataframe['kijun']) &
            (dataframe['cloud_red']==True)

        ),
        'buy'] = 1

    return dataframe

    return dataframe`

I'm getting the error

freqtrade - ERROR - Impossible to load Strategy 'ichi'. This class does not exist or contains Python code errors.

I can get the default strategy to run. This error doesn't give me much to go off of. Is there a better place to get support using freqtrade and the technical library? I'm not finding much on google.

Impossible to load Strategy 'ichi'

class ichis(IStrategy):

Align the usage: ichi/ichis ^^

The class name (not the name of the python file) should be used in the --strategy option

Thanks for the quick response! I will try it now.

[kobertkirk]

I am getting this error now
freqtrade.resolvers.iresolver - WARNING - Could not import /home/kobert/freqtrade/user_data/strategies/ichi.py due to 'No module named 'technical''

I have the technical in the the .local/lib/python3.6/... and the freqtrade/.env/lib/...

I'm lost.

I figured it out. I deleted the thechnical folder in my enviroment and reinstalled it. Thanks for your help.

it's better ask such small questions in our Slack channels
