Gareth Kirwan 16d2d9f35a Config: AssetEnabled upgrade (#1735)
* Config: Move assetEnabled upgrade to Version management

* Assets: Do not error on asset not enabled, or disabled

This became more messy with Disabling something that's defaulted to
disabled.
Taking an idealogical stance against erroring that what you want to have
done is already done.

* CurrencyManager: Set AssetEnabled when StorePairs(enabled)

* RPCServer: Fix tests expecting StoreAssetPairFormat to enable the asset

Also assertifies

* Bitfinex: Fix tests for MarginFunding subs

* GCTWrapper: Improve TestMain clarity

* BTSE: Add futures to testconfig

* Exchanges: Rename StoreAssetPairStore

Previously we were calling it "Format", but accepting everything from
the PairStore.
We were also defaulting to turning the Asset on.

Now callers need to get their AssetEnabled set as they want it, so
there's no magic

This change also moves responsibility for error wrapping outside to the
caller.

* Config: AssetEnabled upgrade should respect assetTypes

Previously we ignored the field and just turned on everything.
I think that was because we couldn't get at the old value.
In either case, we have the option to do better, and respect the
assetEnabled value

* Config: Improve exchange config version upgrade error messages

Exchange package overview

The exchange eventhandler is responsible for calling the engine package's ordermanager to place either a fake, or real order on the exchange via API.

The following steps are taken for the ExecuteOrder function:

  • Calculate slippage. If the order is a sell order, it will reduce the price by a random percentage between the two values. If it is a buy order, it will raise the price by a random percentage between the two values
    • If RealOrders is set to false:
      • It will estimate the slippage based on what is in the config file under min-slippage-percent and max-slippage-percent.
      • It will be sized within the constraints of the current candles OHLCV values
      • It will generate the exchange fee based on what is stored in the config for the exchange asset currency pair
    • If RealOrders is set to true, it will use the latest orderbook data to calculate slippage by simulating the order
  • Place the order with the engine order manager
  • If RealOrders is set to false it will submit the order with no calls to the exchange's API, use no API credentials and it will always pass
  • If RealOrders is set to true it will submit the order via the exchange's API and if successful, will be stored in the order manager
  • If an order is successfully placed, a snapshot of all existing orders in the run will be captured and store for statistical purposes
