    This is used by the simulation runner to answer questions about the data,

    calls.

    Parameters
    ----------
    asset_finder : zipline.assets.assets.AssetFinder
        The AssetFinder instance used to resolve assets.
    trading_calendar: zipline.utils.calendar.exchange_calendar.TradingCalendar
        The calendar instance used to provide minute->session information.
    first_trading_day : pd.Timestamp
        The first trading day for the simulation.
    equity_daily_reader : BcolzDailyBarReader, optional
        The daily bar reader for equities. This will be used to service
        daily data backtests or daily history calls in a minute backetest.
        If a daily bar reader is not provided but a minute bar reader is,
        the minutes will be rolled up to serve the daily requests.
    equity_minute_reader : BcolzMinuteBarReader, optional
        The minute bar reader for equities. This will be used to service
        minute data backtests or minute history calls. This can be used
        to serve daily calls if no daily bar reader is provided.
    future_daily_reader : BcolzDailyBarReader, optional
        The daily bar ready for futures. This will be used to service
        daily data backtests or daily history calls in a minute backetest.
        If a daily bar reader is not provided but a minute bar reader is,
        the minutes will be rolled up to serve the daily requests.
    future_minute_reader : BcolzFutureMinuteBarReader, optional
        The minute bar reader for futures. This will be used to service
        minute data backtests or minute history calls. This can be used
        to serve daily calls if no daily bar reader is provided.
    adjustment_reader : SQLiteAdjustmentWriter, optional
        The adjustment reader. This is used to apply splits, dividends, and
        other adjustment data to the raw data from the readers.
