zenbot | Zenbot is a command-line cryptocurrency trading bot | Cryptocurrency library

• Have I written custom code (as opposed to using zenbot vanilla): I have added a strategy and lib files. The strategy uses the lib files to make a pull from the Twitter API and calculate the sentiment of it.
• OS Platform and Distribution (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 16.04): Ubuntu 16.04
• Zenbot version (commit ref, or version): v4.1.0
• Zenbot branch:unstable
• NodeJS version:v8.11.2
• Python version (when using a python script): python 2.7.12, 3.5.2
• Exact command to reproduce (include everything): ./zenbot.sh trade --paper --strategy sentiment_strat --days 2 --period=10m
• Did I make any changes to conf-sample.js?: No -**Extra libraries used - twitter npm - v1.7.1, vader-sentiment -v1.1.3

The issue is that once the twitter API pull is made the Zenbot will keep printing the same BTC value. It doesn't seem to exit past the onPeriod() function in the strategy. Having the support of pulling from Twitter is a feature request because this would allow users to perform sentiment analysis or perform other types of analysis to make trades. I am close to making it work but I'm stuck on why this is happening. I'm assuming it has something to do with the fact that I'm using an async function - I have to do this because if I don't wait for the return value, the sentiment will be calculated on an undefined value.

I have placed a console.log() in the onPeriod() function after I call main() but as you see from the errorlog.txt, it doesn't get to that point - it is stuck inside main() even though main() has completed and the determination of whether to hold, buy or sell has been performed - See lines 20, 21, 22 (Line 23 is the repeating output of the same BTC price until I exited the process.) errorlog.txt

After running the debugger and seeing that it endlessly loops inside async_hooks.js and net.js - what I found was that the onPeriod() function is called inside an async.queue(). Is having an async call inside another async call a problem? Or is it something else?
