Can I use intraday data to trigger stop losses?

Yes, by enabling the 'touched_exit' parameter, the system checks high/low prices to see if stops or take-profit targets were hit during the trading day.

What performance metrics are included in the backtest report?

The report provides total return, CAGR, max drawdown, Sharpe and Sortino ratios, win ratio, and monthly return tables, among other metrics.

Does it support transaction costs like fees and taxes?

Yes, you can configure fee_ratio for all transactions and tax_ratio specifically for sell orders to simulate realistic trading environments.

What data format is required for polars-backtest?

The library requires a 'long format' DataFrame where each row represents a unique (date, symbol) pair containing price data and position weights or signals.

How does it handle rebalancing frequency?

It supports multiple resampling frequencies including daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly, and allows for custom offsets to simulate execution delays.
