## {{.CapitalName}} package overview
|
|
|
|
This is a custom strategy for the GoCryptoTrader Backtester. It is a simple example of a strategy that trades a pair of assets and is used to highlight how strategies can be loaded from external sources.
|
|
|
|
### Designing a strategy
|
|
- File must contain `main` package.
|
|
- Custom strategy plugins must adhere to the strategy.Handler interface. See the [strategy.Handler interface documentation](./backtester/eventhandlers/strategies/README.md) for more information.
|
|
- Must contain function `func GetStrategies() []strategy.Handler` to return a slice of implemented `strategy.Handler`.
|
|
- If only using one custom strategy, can simply `return []strategy.Handler{&customStrategy{}}`.
|
|
|
|
### Building
|
|
See [here](./backtester/plugins/README.md) for details on how to build the plugin file.
|
|
|
|
### Running
|
|
Plugins can only be loaded via Linux, macOS and WSL. Windows itself is not supported.
|
|
|
|
To run this strategy you will need to use the following flags when running the GoCryptoTrader Backtester:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./backtester -strategypluginpath="path/to/strategy/example.so"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To run this specific example strategy, use:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./backtester --strategypluginpath="./plugins/strategies/example/example.so"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Upon startup, the GoCryptoTrader Backtester will load the strategy and run it for all events.
