Since we can and want to eventually allow remote control of pretty much all UIs, this drafts out a new `.ui._remote_ctl` module with a new `@tractor.context` called `remote_annotate()` which simply starts a msg loop which allows for (eventual) initial control of a `SelectRect` through IPC msgs. Remote controller impl deats: - make `._display.graphics_update_loop()` set a `._remote_ctl._dss: dict` for all chart actor-global `DisplayState` instances which can then be controlled from the `remote_annotate()` handler task. - also stash any remote client controller `tractor.Context` handles in a module var for broadband IPC cancellation on any display loop shutdown. - draft a further global map to track graphics object instances since likely we'll want to support remote mutation where the client can use the `id(obj): int` key as an IPC handle/uuid. - just draft out a client-side `@acm` for now: `open_annots_client()` to be filled out in up coming commits. UI component tweaks in support of the above: - change/add `SelectRect.set_view_pos()` and `.set_scene_pos()` to allow specifying the rect coords in either of the scene or viewbox domains. - use these new apis in the interaction loop. - add a `SelectRect.add_to_view()` to avoid having annotation client code knowing "how" a graphics obj needs to be added and can instead just pass only the target `ChartView` during init. - drop all the status label updates from the display loop since they don't really work all the time, and probably it's not a feature we want to keep in the longer term (over just console output and/or using the status bar for simpler "current state / mkt" infos). - allows a bit of simplification of `.ui._fsp` method APIs to not pass around status (bar) callbacks as well! |

piker
trading gear for hackers.
piker
is a broker agnostic, next-gen FOSS toolset for real-time computational trading targeted at hardcore Linux users .
we use as much bleeding edge tech as possible including (but not limited to):
- latest python for glue
- trio & tractor for our distributed, multi-core, real-time streaming structured concurrency runtime B)
- Qt for pristine high performance UIs
- pyqtgraph for real-time charting
polars
numpy
andnumba
for fast numerics- apache arrow and parquet for time series history management persistence and sharing
- (prototyped) techtonicdb for L2 book storage
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.
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; join the cause.
sane install with poetry
TODO!
rigorous install on nixos
using poetry2nix
TODO!
hacky install on nixos
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 develop.nix
this will setup the required python environment to run piker, make sure to run:
pip install -r requirements.txt -e .
once after loading the shell
install wild-west style via pip
piker
is currently under heavy pre-alpha development and as such should be cloned from this repo and hacked on directly.
for a development install:
git clone git@github.com:pikers/piker.git
cd piker
virtualenv env
source ./env/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt -e .
check out our charts
bet you weren't expecting this from the foss:
piker -l info -b kraken -b binance chart btcusdt.binance --pdb
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 buyd
/ctl-d
to stage sella
to stage alert
search_mode
(ctl-l
orctl-space
to open,ctl-c
orctl-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:
pikerd -l info --pdb
connect your chart:
piker -l info -b kraken -b binance chart xmrusdt.binance --pdb
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
.
if anyone asks you what this project is about
you don't talk about it.
how do i get involved?
enter the matrix.
how come there ain't that many docs
suck it up, learn the code; no one is trying to sell you on anything. also, we need lotsa help so if you want to start somewhere and can't necessarily write serious code, this might be the place for you!
