Lumibot - A Backtesting and Trading Library for Stocks, Options, Crypto, Futures, FOREX and More!
Lumibot is a backtesting and trading library for stocks, options, crypto, futures and more. It is made so that the same code you use for backtesting can be used for live trading, making it easy to transition from backtesting to live trading. Lumibot is a highly flexible library that allows you to create your own strategies and indicators, and backtest them on historical data. It is also highly optimized for speed, so you can backtest your strategies quickly and efficiently.
IMPORTANT: This library requires data for backtesting. Our recommended data source is [ThetaData](https://www.thetadata.net/) because they provide the deepest historical coverage we’ve found and directly support BotSpot. Use the promo code `BotSpot10` at checkout for 10% off the first order (the code also tells ThetaData you were referred by us).
Contributor note: ReadAGENTS.mdbefore running anything Theta-related. That file spells out the hard rules—never launch ThetaTerminal or the shared downloader locally, always point LumiBot at the AWS-hosted downloader, and wrap all long commands with/Users/robertgrzesik/bin/safe-timeout. Breaking these rules kills the only licensed Theta session.
Introducing BotSpot: No-Code AI Trading Bots
[BotSpot](https://botspot.trade/?utm_source=lumibot+docs&utm_medium=documentation&utm_campaign=GitHub+Readme) is our platform built on top of Lumibot that lets you build, backtest, and deploy trading strategies without writing any code. Just describe what you want in plain English and BotSpot's AI handles the rest.
- Build strategies using natural language -- the AI writes production-ready Lumibot code for you
- Backtest against years of historical data with a single click
- Deploy to live trading with real brokers (Alpaca, Interactive Brokers, and more)
- Browse a marketplace of proven, community-built strategies you can run immediately

Don't lose this
Three weeks from now, you'll want Lumibot again. Will you remember where to find it?
Save it to your library and the next time you need Lumibot, it’s one tap away — from any AI app you use. Group it into a bench with the rest of the team for that kind of task and you can pull the whole stack at once.
⚡ Pro tip for geeks: add a-gnt 🤵🏻♂️ as a custom connector in Claude or a custom GPT in ChatGPT — one click and your library is right there in the chat. Or, if you’re in an editor, install the a-gnt MCP server and say “use my [bench name]” in Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, or Windsurf.
