When running GOOG example, no stats table is visible

[trogloditee]

Expected Behavior

Stats table should appear on bt.run()

Actual Behavior

Only the .html chart is visible.
Run window only shows Process finished with exit code 0.

Additional info

Running this on PyCharm (latest, MacOS), latest Backtesting version.
Running GOOG script from PyCharm directly (ie, not using Terminal)

Brute force solution was to modify def run() on backtesting.py (line 724) from:

        self._results = self._compute_stats(broker, strategy)
        return self._results

to:

        self._results = self._compute_stats(broker, strategy)
        print(self._results.to_string())
        return self._results

The supposedly relevant PyCharm bug is marked obsolete. Maybe update PyCharm? Certainly I think it's their issue. Python works as advertised. 😄

I understand.
PyCharm I'm using is 2020.1 (latest version).

@mptorr I think that you could simply print(bt.run()) or capture the stats like stats = bt.run() and either use the stats or print(stats)

Indeed, Backtest.run() just returns the stats series. It's on you then to print/use it.
