Coin Trader is a Java-based backend for algorithmically trading cryptocurrencies. It provides data collection and export, complex event processing and triggering, and backtesting - paper trading - live trading.

PREANNOUNCING COINTRADER 2

I'm currently developing an all-new v2 of Cointrader in Python. It's not quite ready for initial release, but hopefully in the next month or two an initial version will get posted.

Use this original Cointrader project if you want Java, or if you need something stable now.

Setup Instructions

Support

See the Wiki for more information.
There's no mailing list, so open a new issue for anything, help or just discussion. Tag it with "Question" and I'll follow through with you.

Automated Trading

To implement signals and automated strategies, you connect Esper event queries to Java code like this:

@When( "select avg(priceAsDouble) from Trade.win:time(30 sec)" )
void checkMovingAverage( double avg )
{
  if( avg > trigger )
    context.publish( new MyIndicator(5.31) );
}

@When( "select * from MyIndicator where myIndicatorValue > 5.0" )
void enterTrade( MyIndicator s )
{
  orders.create( Listings.BTC_USD, 1.0 )
        .withLimit( 650.25 )
        .place();
}

You then attach this class to a Context to receive Esper event rows as method invocations.

24Hr OHLC Bars

Strategy needs to implement a .getInterval() method to return a double in seconds of the size of the bar.

Default simple statful stretegy is 86400 (24Hr) cointrader-esper.cfg.xml

<plugin-view factory-class="org.cryptocoinpartners.esper.OHLCBarPlugInViewFactory" name="ohlcbar" namespace="custom"/>  

epl

• Create an esper named window to add the OHLC bars into

create window OHLCShortWindow.win:length(10)
as
	select *
from
	Bar;

• Add the OHLC bars to it

insert into OHLCShortWindow
select * 
 from  Trade.custom:ohlcbar(timestamp, priceCountAsDouble, market,TestStrategy.getInterval());
 

• Select values from OHLC bar window

select * from OHLCShortWindow as ohlc 

TALIB Set Up

cointrader-esper.cfg.xml

<plugin-aggregation-function name="talib" function-class="org.cryptocoinpartners.esper.GenericTALibFunction"/>  

epl

select coalesce(talib("atr", max, min, last, 9),0) as atr from OHLCShortWindow;
