Importing Local Market Data for VeighNa Backtests

Summary

This brief forum exchange answers how to run a backtest with locally stored market data in VeighNa. The suggested workflow is to first import the data into the database through the DataManager, then run the backtest using that stored data. The questioner was unsure whether local data should be configured through the CTP backtesting interface; the reply instead points to the platform’s data-management documentation.

The exchange provides a basic setup direction, but it does not explain import parameters, supported data formats, database configuration, or how to select the local data within a particular backtesting app. It also gives no example run or troubleshooting steps. Readers may need to consult the referenced VeighNa documentation for the detailed procedure and confirm that their data is correctly imported and available to the backtesting component they use.
