Debut - Trading Framework

Debut is an ecosystem for developing and launching trading strategies. An analogue of the well-known ZenBot, but with much more flexible possibilities for constructing strategies. All you need to do is come up with and describe the entry points to the market and connect the necessary plugins to work. Everything else is a matter of technology: genetic algorithms - will help you choose the most effective parameters for the strategy (period, stops, and others), ticker selection module - will help you find an asset suitable for the strategy (token or share), on which it will work best.

Debut is based on the architecture of the core and add-on plugins that allow you to flexibly customize any solution. The main goal of the entire Debut ecosystem is to simplify the process of creating and launching working trading robots on various exchanges.

Features

  • Multiple exchanges API
  • Backtesting with historical data
  • Backtesting results visualization
  • Backtesting live preview
  • Strategy optimisation (genetic algorithms, multi thread)
  • Stretegy overfitting control (Walk-Forward)
  • Cross timeframe candles access
  • Simple working with data using callbacks e.g. onCandle, onTick, onDepth ...
  • Written in TypeScript (JavaScript), may be executed in browser
  • Customizable with plugins
  • Can use community edition for free with limitations

Available brokers

Alpaca API Binance API Tinkoff API (Russia only) Interactive Brokers (beta)

Didn't see your broker? You can donate for support.

Community edition

We believe in the power of the community! That is why we decided to publish the project. The community version is free, but it has some limitations in commercial use (income from trading startups is not commerce), as well as technical differences in testing strategies. Join the community, join the developer chat

Enterprise edition

(Available by subscription for $20/mo)

  • Cross timeframe candles access (from lower to higher candles)
  • Advanced tick emulation in backtesting (60+ ticks per candle)
  • Tinkoff and Alpaca supports all timeframes (programmaticaly solved broker issue)

Live orders streaming

We broadcast our experiments on telegram channels, where you can see our orders on cryptocurrencies and stocks.

Disclaimer

  • Debut does not guarantee 100% probability of making a profit. Use it at your own peril and risk, relying on your own professionalism.
  • Cryptocurrency is a global experiment, so Debut is also. That is, both can fail at any time.

Quick Start Guide

Step 1: Install

Fork the repository and install dependencies by npm i

Step 2: Get broker API keys Follow broker instruction and get API access token. The access level is required only for trading, be careful when choosing access settings.

Broker API guides: Tinkoff instructions or Binance instructions For interactive brokers you need to copose docker image from this repo

Then create tokens file .tokens.json in root directory via copy and rename file .token.example.json. Just replace placeholders by you broker API access tokens and remove unused.

.tokens.exapmle.json listing:

{
    "binance": "YOU_BINANCE_TOKEN",
    "binanceSecret": "YOU_BINANCE_SECRET",
    "tinkoff": "YOU_TINKOFF_TOKEN",
    "tinkoffAccountId": "YOU_TINKOFF_ACCOUNT",
    "alpacaKey": "YOU_ALPACA_KEY",
    "alpacaSecret": "YOU_ALPACA_SECRET"
}

Step 3: Create strategy

Execute command npm run create in root project directory and enter name of strategy. This command creates empty strategy file structure with next files:

  • src/strategies/{name}/bot.ts - Main strategy file for strategy logic
  • src/strategies/{name}/cfgs.ts - Store for strategy configuration objects
  • src/strategies/{name}/meta.ts - Meta information for creating, optimising, backtesting and executing

Also file schema.json will be modified with strategy path description

Step 4: Describe strategy

In bot.ts file you can start working with strategy runtime. MyStrategy class for working with anything around you own trading strategy, this class extended from core Debut which provided runtime methods and data.

// bot.ts file example
import { Debut } from '@debut/community-core';

// Basic strategy runtime
export class MyStrategy extends Debut {
    // this - is strategy runtime for working with broker and runtime data or methods
}

Step 5: Configure strategy Before launching, you need to add a strategy configuration setting for the selected instrument and broker.

Step 6: Backtesting

Use historical simulation to evaluate the trading performance of your strategy. Backtesting can be started with the command:

npm run compile && npm run testing -- --ticker=TSLA --bot=MyStrategy --days=200 --olhc

For results visualisation use Report Plugin See detailed command descriptions in strategy tester docs


Documentation

Runtime public methods

registerPlugins

Contract: this.registerPlugins(plugins: PluginInterface[]);

Description: Register plugins. It can be called at any convenient moment, but it is recommended to register all the necessary plugins at the stage of creation in the strategy constructor or in the environment constructor in the meta file

Command Line Modules

Genetic Optimizer

It is based on the async-genetic module of genetics, which allows you to find optimal solutions for various problems. The genetic optimizer is able to select the best parameters much more efficiently, compared to simple random enumeration of values ​​(Brutforce).

Single genetic

A single call to the genetic optimizer, used to tune a strategy for optimization during development. For example, to check the correctness of the optimization scheme, other stages of creating a robot and its work during optimization as a whole.

But it can also be used as a one-time optimization on a previously known instrument, for a quick result.

Started by calling the command:

npm run genetic -- [...args]

Run options

Parameter: --bot=...

Description: Name of the trading robot from the file schema.json

Example: --bot=SpikesG


Parameter: --ticker=...

Description: Tool for work, must be in the file cfgs.ts, in the directory of the strategy

Example: --ticker=AAPL, --ticker=BTCUSDT


Parameter: --amount=...

Description: Initial amount for trading (from it is equityLevel) schema.json

Example: --amount=500


Parameter: --days=...

Description: Number of days to download history, if any. The loaded history is saved in the ./History directory for reuse

Example: --days=200


Parameter: --gap=...

Description: How many days to deviate from today before starting the history request

Recommendations: Used to create a non-training interval. If we passed the --days=150 setting and the --gap=50 setting, then 50 days of history will be formed to run in the tester and test on untrained data, it will be enough to pass --days=200 in the tester, then we will capture the entire training period, plus a new 50 days of indentation

Example: --gap=20


Parameter: --pop=...

Description: Population size in the genetic algorithm (population is the number of strategies created)

Recommendations: It is recommended to set the population size in the range from 100 to 1500, but bigger is not always better! The meaning is very individual, large populations increase the likelihood of mutations and other random phenomena. Focus on the number of generations

Example: --pop=500


Parameter: --gen=...

Description: Number of generations in optimization

Recommendations: Strength of genetics in generations, recommended values are from 10 to 100, more is better. However, watch out for overtraining by testing the strategy against new historical data. There is a high probability of adaptation to specific conditions of price changes, with a very large number of generations.

Example: --gen=20


Parameter: --ohlc

Description: The mechanism is designed for closer accurate tracking of price changes. Splits each candle in history into 4 ticks.

Example: --ohlc


Parameter: --best=...

Description: How many best results to output to the console at the end of optimization, by default 30

Example: --best=20


Parameter: --log

Description: Whether to output each generation statistics to the console

Example: --log


Parameter: --maxThreads

Description: Limit cpu usage (no limits by default)

Example: --maxThreads=8


Parameter: --wfo

Description: Use walk forward optimisation. Available values: rolling, anchored. See rolling and anchored modes description here

Example: --wfo=rolling


Parameter: --gaType

Description: Available next values: islands and classic, Enables genetic island mode. See about it here

Example: --gaType=islands


Parameter: --gaContinent

Description: Use continent for genetical optimiser, by default false, available only when --gaType passed

Example: --gaContinent


Run example:

npm run compile && npm run genetic -- --bot=SpikesG --ticker=CRVUSDT --days=180 --gap=20 --gen=20 --pop=100 --log --amount=500 --wfo=rolling --maxThreads=8

Find tickers finder

This is a module for selecting a ticker for a strategy, it enumerates all available tickers for stocks from the file ./Stocks.json, for cryptocurrency from the file./Crypt.json For each ticker, genetic selection of parameters is performed in the process. As a result, you get ready-made results for each ticker. Convenient to leave overnight.

The results will be generated as reports in JSON format configuration + its statistics. Reports are stored in the folder ./public/reports/...

Analyze the report data as follows. In the file with the name of the ticker, you will see 30 configuration options that showed the best results after genetic optimization. The json file ranks the results from top to bottom, from worst to best. The best results are always from below. The id field in the config allows you to establish a connection with the result, this will allow you to understand which config was selected to run.

When working, the files stocks.json or crypt.json are modified, do not forget to roll back the changes after the selection of tickers is complete.

Run by calling the command:

npm run finder -- [...args]

Run options

The main parameters are the same as for genetic, with one difference

Parameter: --crypt

Description: Whether to use the file crypt.json for work (the default is stocks.json with a list of stocks)

Example: --crypt

Recommendations: The process finishes after processing one ticker, for cyclic restarts use pm2, below are examples of starting the ticker search process.

Mac/Linux

npm run compile && pm2 start finder -n instance -- --ticker=NDAQ --bot=SpikesG --amount=1000 --days=1000 --log --useTicks --pop=100 --gen=50 --wfo-rolling

Windows:

npm run compile && pm2 start node_modules/@debut/enterprise-core/lib/cli/finder.js -f -- --ticker=ZILUSDT --bot=SpikesG --amount=500 --gen=50 --pop=300 --days=180 --gap=20 --log --useTicks --crypt --wfo=rolling

Strategy tester tester

This is a strategy testing module. It is used during development, to check the opening and closing of positions in the right places and the operation of the stregia in general. Also for creating visualizations of ready-made algorithmic strategies.

Launched by calling the command:

npm run testing - [... args]

Run Options

Parameter: --bot=...

Description: Name of the trading robot from the file schema.json

Example: --ohlc

Run example:

npm run compile && npm run testing -- --ticker=TSLA --bot=SpikesG --days=200 --olhc

Plugin development

The architecture of plugins is based on the use of calls to certain functions (hereinafter hooks), in order to intercept events occurring in the system. Some types of hooks allow you to stop events, some have a passive status without affecting what is happening. The plugin architecture should be structured in such a way as not to affect performance in the genetic optimizer.

The whole plugin is a function that returns an object containing the name field - this is the name of the plugin, it must be unique within the plugins used, api are external plugin methods for calls inside the strategy, well, the rest of the object fields are a set of hooks.

export function pluginConstructor (): PluginInterface {
    const variable = 23;
    return {
        name: 'MyPluginName',
        api: {
            getVariable () {
                return variable;
            },
        // ... hooks
    };

Hook: [async onMajorCandle]: (tick: Candle, timeframe: TimeFrame) => Promise<void>;

Description: A new candlestick has been formed for the higher timeframe, which was specified by the user when calling the this.useMajorCandle ('1h'); method in the strategy implementation. Plugins can also independently invoke a subscription to use major frames using the plugin context this.debut.useMajorCandle or ctx.debut.useMajorCandle ('1h');

onMajorTick

(Only for Enterprise version)

Hook: [async onMajorTick]: (tick: Candle, timeframe: TimeFrame) => Promise<void>;

Description: A new tick has been formed for the higher timeframe

Execution context

All hooks are executed in the plugin context, calls to this. inside any hook will be bound to the object below. All hook arguments are mutable, so be careful.

The strategy itself is available as this.debut and you have access to all public methods and kernel attributes.

this.debut.orders - a list of active deals, this.debut.closeOrder - will close a deal, this.debut.opts - will help to access the strategy settings.

Context interface

interface PluginCtx {
    findPlugin <T extends PluginInterface> (name: string): T;
    debut: DebutCore;
}

Examples

Simple plugin

Let's consider an example of one of the simplest plugins that adds the profit to the existing balance of the strategy.

import {PluginInterface} from '@debut/types';
import {orders} from '@debut/plugin-utils';

export function reinvestPlugin (): PluginInterface {
    // this = undefined here
    // but you can use deferred assignment like this:
    let ctx: PluginCtx;

    return {
        name: 'reinvest',

        onInit () {
            ctx = this;
        },

        async onClose (order, closing) {
            // this = PluginCtx here
            if (! order.openPrice) {
                return;
            }

            const profit = orders.getCurrencyProfit (closing, order.price) - order.commission.value;

            // this -> PluginCtx
            this.debut.opts.amount +=profit;
        },
    };
}

Plugin step by step

Create a generic plugin type and export it

export interface DynamicTakesPlugin extends PluginInterface {
    name: 'dynamicTakes';
    api: Methods;
}

Export the type with plugin parameters to connect it to debut.opts

export type DynamicTakesPluginOptions = {
    trailing ?: boolean;
    ignoreTicks ?: boolean;
    maxRetryOrders ?: number;
};

Separately declare the interface of public methods of the plugin (it is private, there is no export)

interface Methods {
    setForOrder (orderId: string, takePrice: number, stopPrice: number): void;
    getTakes (orderId: string): OrderTakes;
}

Exporting the plugin API for calling via this.plugins.dynamicTakes.setForOrder () from the strategy

export interface DynamicTakesPluginAPI {
    dynamicTakes: Methods;
}
  • NB !: All public methods of plugins will be accessible from the strategy by calling this.plugins [plugin name] *

Data Types @debut/types

Data types are located in a separate package, to install, run the command

npm i --save-dev @debut/types

Candle

Market data presentation form. It is used both for ticks and for formed candles. Unified standard, independent of the choice of the trading platform.

interface Candle {
    o: number;
    c: number;
    h: number;
    l: number;
    v: number;
    time: number;
}

DepthOrder

Order data in the order book

interface DepthOrder {
     price: number;
     qty: number;
}

Depth

Order-book dataset

interface Depth {
     bids: DepthOrder [];
     asks: DepthOrder [];
};

TimeFrame

A unified timeframe format for the strategy, the list contains only supported formats.

type TimeFrame = '1min' | '3min' | '5min' | '15min' | '30min' | '1h' | '2h' | '4h' | 'day' | 'week' | 'month';

WorkingEnv

Runtime environment variables. It is necessary to separate all stages of production. Tk for different environments requires a different configuration of plugins and modes of operation. Tunable environment variables allow you to initialize only the mechanisms required for a given environment.

enum WorkingEnv {
    'genetic', // strategy works in genetic optimization mode
    'tester', // the strategy works in backtesting mode
    'production', // the strategy works in real trading mode
}

DebutOptions

Basic options for any trading strategy.

interface DebutOptions {
    broker: 'tinkoff' | 'binance'; // Broker type
    ticker: string; // Ticker
    currency: string; // Currency
    interval: TimeFrame; // Time interval
    amount: number; // Amount for the strategy to work
    fee ?: number; // Tax for the operation in fractions
    id ?: number; // configuration id
    sandbox ?: boolean; // Is sandbox mode active or real money trading
    margin?: boolean; // Switching to margin account in binance
    instrumentType ?: 'SPOT' | 'FUTURES'; // Type of the traded instrument (for now only for binance), by default SPOT
    lotsMultiplier ?: number; // Lot multiplier, for example, if you need to make x2 or x3 purchases, by default 1
    equityLevel ?: number; // Sklko available from the total deposit for the current strategy
}

DebutMeta

Base class for defining strategy meta information. Used in all meta.ts files containing meta data.

interface DebutMeta {
    parameters: GeneticSchema; // Strategy optimization parameters
    score: (bot: DebutCore) => number; // Method for calculating efficiency in genetic optimization
    validate: (cfg: DebutOptions) => false | DebutOptions; // Validate the configuration
    stats: (bot: DebutCore) => unknown; // Method for getting statistics on a robot, any statistics plugin can be used
    create: (transport: BaseTransport, cfg: DebutOptions, env: WorkingEnv) => Promise<DebutCore>; // Strategy creation method
    ticksFilter?: (solution: DebutOptions) => (tick: Candle) => boolean; // Filtering ticks, to remove them from history during testing, also works for a geneticist
}

GeneticSchema

An object consisting of Descriptors fields, describing the ranges of the ranking of the fields and the data types in them. Used to generate random values, during mutation in a genetic algorithm, or initially to create the first random dataset.

Example:

const parameters: GeneticSchema <SpikesGOptions> = {
    stopLoss: {min: 10, max: 30}, // float: numbers from 10 to 30 with any fractional part
    usePeaks: {bool: true}, // boolean: true or false
    bandsPeriod: {min: 10, max: 80, int: true}, // int: integers from 10 to 80
    minus: {min: -10, max: -5, int: true}, // int: negative integers from -10 to -5
};

SchemaDescriptor

A data ranking format for randomly generating values. The number, float and boolean types are supported.

type SchemaDescriptor = SchemaNumberDescriptor | SchemaBoolDescriptor;

type SchemaNumberDescriptor = {
    min: number; // initial value
    max: number; // final value
    int ?: boolean; // integer
    odd ?: boolean; // odd
};

type SchemaBoolDescriptor = {
    bool: true; // boolean
};

OrderType

Supported deal types. * Currently only market trades are supported *

enum OrderType {
    'BUY' = 'BUY', // Buy by market
    'SELL' = 'SELL ', // Sell by market or short, in case of no positions and margin trading is allowed
}

interface ExecutedOrder {
    // Unique client generated identifier
    cid: number;

    // Ticker of the instrument on the exchange
    ticker: string;
    // Time of the candle on which it was executed
    time: number;
    // Identifier of the asset on the exchange, if supported by the exchange
    figi ?: string;
    // Operation currency in which the balance is measured for example:
    // ticker XRPBTC - the transaction currency will be BTC,
    // ticker BTCUSDT - currency is USDT,
    // in case of buying shares, this is fiat for which the share will be sold.
    currency: string;
    // Timeframe of candles on which we work
    interval: TimeFrame;
    // Strategy signature (name)

    lotSize: number;
    // Pip size (Minimum price change)
    pipSize: number;
    // Sandbox Ftag (Used in Enterprise version)
    sandbox: boolean;
    // Whether the deal is closing, that is, canceling the previously opened one.
    // For such transactions, the openId and openPrice fields will be filled
    close: boolean;
    // Opening price. Only for deals that close the position
    openPrice ?: number;
    // Identifier of the deal that created the position. For closing deals only
    openId ?: string;
    // Lot multiplier, lots were multiplied by it for purchase. Used for the convenience of working with martingale systems.
    lotsMultiplier ?: number;
    // How much money we take from the allocated strategy, the value as a percentage is calculated from the opts.amout field
    // Example: 0-1, 0 - 0%, 1 - 100%. 0.25 = 25%.
    equityLevel ?: number;
    // Whether a deal was executed in the training phase on test data
    learning ?: boolean;
    // For Binance only - whether a cross margin account was used
    margin ?: boolean;
    // For Binance only - whether a cross futures account was used
    futures ?: boolean;
    // Trade ID
    orderId: string;
    // How many lots were purchased may differ in quantity from the requested ones, due to the reasons of the exchange
    executedLots: number;
    // Commission data, commission currency and size
    commission: {currency: string; value: number};
    // Initiate the execution of transactions in the market for this deal.
