Great video. Is it possible to feed the animate function with live data in a fixed length dataframe that has the current candle changing price in realtime? sort of adapting the code to live strategy testing rather than back testing.

Great content! In this video, you have used matplotlib library for plotting charts. I am making candlestick charts using plotly library. I too want to make the chart interactive but seems plotly doesn't allow that. Is matplotlib better than plotly to make the chart more interactive?
