From ea0cce77f784cd3ccfaf8d45d92775698fa31104 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "google-labs-jules[bot]" <161369871+google-labs-jules[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2026 09:25:34 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] perf: remove redundant signal clearing in strategy analysis When `process_only_new_candles` is enabled and no new candle is detected, `_analyze_ticker_internal` previously called `remove_entry_exit_signals` to clear signal columns. Since the dataframe is a fresh copy from `dp.ohlcv` (which only contains OHLCV data) and the return value is only used for basic validation (length, close price, date) in `analyze_pair`, this operation was redundant. Removing this call saves approximately 1.3ms per pair per iteration loop (when skipping analysis), avoiding unnecessary pandas column assignments. The test `test__analyze_ticker_internal_skip_analyze` was updated to reflect that signal columns are no longer added in this scenario. Consumers of analyzed data (e.g. `freqtradebot`) rely on `DataProvider` cache, which retains the previously analyzed (populated) dataframe.
