focus and features:
|
||||
*******************
|
||||
- 100% federated: your code, your hardware, your data feeds, your broker fills.
|
||||
- zero web: low latency, native software that doesn't try to re-invent the OS
|
||||
- maximal **privacy**: prevent brokers and mms from knowing your
|
||||
planz; smack their spreads with dark volume.
|
||||
- zero clutter: modal, context oriented UIs that echew minimalism, reduce
|
||||
thought noise and encourage un-emotion.
|
||||
- first class parallelism: built from the ground up on next-gen structured concurrency
|
||||
primitives.
|
||||
- traders first: broker/exchange/asset-class agnostic
|
||||
- systems grounded: real-time financial signal processing that will
|
||||
make any queuing or DSP eng juice their shorts.
|
||||
- non-tina UX: sleek, powerful keyboard driven interaction with expected use in tiling wms
|
||||
- data collaboration: every process and protocol is multi-host scalable.
|
||||
- fight club ready: zero interest in adoption by suits; no corporate friendly license, ever.

a sane install with `uv`
|
||||
************************
|
||||
bc why install with `python` when you can faster with `rust` ::
|
||||
|
||||
uv lock
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
hacky install on nixos
|
||||
**********************
|
||||
`NixOS` is our core devs' distro of choice for which we offer
|
||||
``NixOS`` is our core devs' distro of choice for which we offer
|
||||
a stringently defined development shell envoirment that can be loaded with::
|
||||
|
||||
nix-shell default.nix
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
check out our charts
|
||||
********************
|
||||
bet you weren't expecting this from the foss::
|
||||
start a chart
|
||||
*************
|
||||
run a realtime OHLCV chart stand-alone::
|
||||
|
||||
piker -l info -b kraken -b binance chart btcusdt.binance --pdb
|
||||
piker -l info chart btcusdt.spot.binance xmrusdt.spot.kraken
|
||||
|
||||
this runs a chart UI (with 1m sampled OHLCV) and shows 2 spot markets from 2 diff cexes
|
||||
overlayed on the same graph. Use of `piker` without first starting
|
||||
a daemon (`pikerd` - see below) means there is an implicit spawning of the
|
||||
multi-actor-runtime (implemented as a `tractor` app).
|
||||
|
||||
For additional subsystem feats available through our chart UI see the
|
||||
various sub-readmes:
|
||||
|
||||
- order control using a mouse-n-keyboard UX B)
|
||||
- cross venue market-pair (what most call "symbol") search, select, overlay Bo
|
||||
- financial-signal-processing (`piker.fsp`) write-n-reload to sub-chart BO
|
||||
- src-asset derivatives scan for anal, like the infamous "max pain" XO
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
this runs the main chart (currently with 1m sampled OHLC) in in debug
|
||||
mode and you can practice paper trading using the following
|
||||
micro-manual:
|
||||
|
||||
``order_mode`` (
|
||||
edge triggered activation by any of the following keys,
|
||||
``mouse-click`` on y-level to submit at that price
|
||||
):
|
||||
|
||||
- ``f``/ ``ctl-f`` to stage buy
|
||||
- ``d``/ ``ctl-d`` to stage sell
|
||||
- ``a`` to stage alert
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
``search_mode`` (
|
||||
``ctl-l`` or ``ctl-space`` to open,
|
||||
``ctl-c`` or ``ctl-space`` to close
|
||||
) :
|
||||
|
||||
- begin typing to have symbol search automatically lookup
|
||||
symbols from all loaded backend (broker) providers
|
||||
- arrow keys and mouse click to navigate selection
|
||||
- vi-like ``ctl-[hjkl]`` for navigation
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
you can also configure your position allocation limits from the
|
||||
sidepane.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
run in distributed mode
|
||||
***********************
|
||||
start the service manager and data feed daemon in the background and
|
||||
connect to it::
|
||||
spawn a daemon standalone
|
||||
*************************
|
||||
we call the root actor-process the ``pikerd``. it can be (and is
|
||||
recommended normally to be) started separately from the ``piker
|
||||
chart`` program::
|
||||
|
||||
pikerd -l info --pdb
|
||||
|
||||
the daemon does nothing until a ``piker``-client (like ``piker
|
||||
chart``) connects and requests some particular sub-system. for
|
||||
a connecting chart ``pikerd`` will spawn and manage at least,
|
||||
|
||||
connect your chart::
|
||||
- a data-feed daemon: ``datad`` which does all the work of comms with
|
||||
the backend provider (in this case the ``binance`` cex).
|
||||
- a paper-trading engine instance, ``paperboi.binance``, (if no live
|
||||
account has been configured) which allows for auto/manual order
|
||||
control against the live quote stream.
|
||||
|
||||
piker -l info -b kraken -b binance chart xmrusdt.binance --pdb
|
||||
*using* an actor-service (aka micro-daemon) manager which dynamically
|
||||
supervises various sub-subsystems-as-services throughout the ``piker``
|
||||
runtime-stack.
|
||||
|
||||
now you can (implicitly) connect your chart::
|
||||
|
||||
enjoy persistent real-time data feeds tied to daemon lifetime. the next
|
||||
time you spawn a chart it will load much faster since the data feed has
|
||||
been cached and is now always running live in the background until you
|
||||
kill ``pikerd``.
|
||||
piker chart btcusdt.spot.binance
|
||||
|
||||
since ``pikerd`` was started separately you can now enjoy a persistent
|
||||
real-time data stream tied to the daemon-tree's lifetime. i.e. the next
|
||||
time you spawn a chart it will obviously not only load much faster
|
||||
(since the underlying ``datad.binance`` is left running with its
|
||||
in-memory IPC data structures) but also the data-feed and any order
|
||||
mgmt states should be persistent until you finally cancel ``pikerd``.
