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
