DLL load failed when importing _ssl

[pchilvers361]

Inside xloil console the "import _ssl" also fails whereas within the environement itself it works.

This is likely related to the specifics of your python env and it suggests that certain DLLs are missing from the search path or that there is a bitness conflict. In fact googling the error message gives hits at python's bug tracker amongst other places. If possible try with an official python dist to ensure everything works as it should. If you want to use a different environment (I've tried conda and official but not others) it may be necessary to add paths to PATH in xloil.ini.
