Change ‘base’ environment to an environment named ‘quantra_py’
Error: name not found? I am able to change the environment to trade_the_fed

Hi,

If you were looking at the course “Trading Using LLM: Concepts and Strategies”, then you should activate the environment “trade_the_fed” so that the required python libraries are imported without any error. You can activate the “trade_the_fed” environment by using the code “conda activate trade_the_fed” in Anaconda prompt.

However, you can create a new virtual environment with the name quantra_py as well. You can go through the following blog link “Setting Up Python On Your System”.

Hope this helps.

that’s actually exactly my question. I can set up “trade_the_fed” enviroment by following your link provided, however, with the same step, I canot do set up for “quantra_py”. I don’t understand why?

Hi,

I just want to confirm once if you have done the following:

  1. Deactivate existing virtual environment and go to base environment
  2. In Anaconda prompt, type:

conda env create -f https://quantra.quantinsti.com/downloads/machinelearning/environment.yml

(This should be in one line and no line breaks)
3. Activate the environment by using the following code “conda activate quantra_py”
