Tyler Goodlet 38469bd6ef Slight rework: shm API Add an internal `_Token` to do interchange (un)packing for passing "references" to shm blocks between actors. Part of the token involves providing the `numpy.dtype` in a cross-actor format. Add a module variable for caching "known tokens" per actor. Drop use of context managers since they tear down shm blocks too soon in debug mode and there seems to be no reason to unlink/close shm before the process has terminated; if code needs it torn down explicitly, it can.		2020-10-02 12:13:50 -04:00

piker

trading gear for hackers.

piker is an attempt at a pro-grade, broker agnostic, next-gen FOSS toolset for real-time trading and financial analysis targetted at hardcore Linux users.

it tries to use as much bleeding edge tech as possible including (but not limited to):

latest Python for glue and business logic
trio for structured concurrency
tractor for distributed, multi-core, real-time streaming
marketstore for historical and real-time tick data persistence and sharing
techtonicdb for L2 book storage
Qt for pristine high performance UIs
pyqtgraph for real-time charting
numpy and numba for fast numerics

Focus and Features:

zero web
zero pump
zero "backtesting" (aka yabf)
zero "cloud"
100% federated: your code, your hardware, your broker's data feeds
privacy
broker/exchange agnostic
built on a structured concurrent actor model
production grade, highly attractive native UIs
expected to be used from tiling wms
sophisticated rt charting
emphasis on collaboration through UI and data sharing
zero interest in adoption by suits
not built for sale; built for people
no corporate friendly license, ever.

fitting with these tenets, we're always open to new framework suggestions and ideas.

building the best looking, most reliable, keyboard friendly trading platform is the dream. feel free to pipe in with your ideas and quiffs.

Install

piker is currently under heavy pre-alpha development and as such should be cloned from this repo and hacked on directly.

A couple bleeding edge components are being used atm pertaining to new components within trio.

For a development install:

git clone git@github.com:pikers/piker.git
cd piker
pip install -e .

Broker Support

For live data feeds the in-progress set of supported brokers is:

Questrade which comes with effectively free L1
IB via ib_insync
Webull via the reverse engineered public API
Kraken for crypto over their public websocket API

If you want your broker supported and they have an API let us know.

Check out our charts

bet you weren't expecting this from the foss bby:

piker chart -b kraken XBTUSD

If anyone asks you what this project is about

tell them it's a broken crypto trading platform that doesn't scale.

How do i get involved?

coming soon.
