Easy way to iterate over trades?

[flexelem]

Hi there,

I want to persist each trade my strategy is applying. I am getting trades from stats object returned from backtest.run() method. I couldn't figure out an easy way to iterate over the list trades instead I found myself trying to figure out getting values of each attribute like the way below;

bt = Backtest(df,
              WTCross,
              cash=10000,
              commission=.002,
              exclusive_orders=True,
              trade_on_close=True)
stats = bt.run()

print(stats)
print(stats._strategy)
print(stats._trades)

for ind in range(len(stats._trades)):
    trade_row = stats._trades.iloc[[ind]]
    print(trade_row['ExitPrice'])

My question is, is there a better way to get the list of trades?

Thanks,
Burak

stats._trades is a pandas DataFrame, so you're looking for how to iterate over DataFrame rows ...
