Database package overview

This package is responsible for the loading of kline data via a user's existing GoCryptoTrader database. It can load existing data from the candles and trades tables. For more information on the GoCryptoTrader database, read this readme. Ensure that your database has data and has been seeded with exchanges. For more information on this, please see this readme.

Database credentials

Defaults

The default database will be loaded from your GoCryptoTrader config. See this for database configuration and implementation.

Overriding the GoCryptoTrader config

Database configuration details can be overridden in the .strat config file to allow other sources to be used and not rely on existing GoCryptoTrader configuration. See this readme for details on config customisation
