Exception is triggered by backtesting 20210301-20210501 range with BAKE/USDT pair (binance). Pair data starts on 2021-04-30 12:00:00 and after adjusting for startup candles pair dataframe is empty.
Solution: Since there are other pairs with enough data - skip pairs with no data and issue a warning.
Exception:
```

otherwise doing something like:
```py
dataframe = super().populate_indicators(dataframe, ...)
```
won't work, because `dataframe` becomes `None`.
This is needed if one of those methods uses dataframe.copy() instead of
just working on reference. e.g. using `merge_informative` in
`populate_indicator` in a nested class hierarchy
