This module provides a data client for backtesting.
class BacktestDataClient
Bases: DataClient
BacktestDataClient(ClientId client_id, MessageBus msgbus, Cache cache, Clock clock, config: NautilusConfig | None = None) Provides an implementation of DataClient for backtesting.

degrade(self) → void
Degrade the component.
While executing on_degrade() any exception will be logged and reraised, then the component
will remain in a DEGRADING
state.
WARNING
Do not override.
If the component is not in a valid state from which to execute this method, then the component state will not change, and an error will be logged.
