How to quickly build a universal multi-currency trading strategy after FMZ upgrade

The Foreword

The inventors of the quantitative trading platforms were very early in their development, when exchanges and currencies were very limited, and there were not many trading models, so the initial API design was relatively simple, focusing on single-currency trading strategies. After many years of iteration, especially the most recent version, it has become more sophisticated, and the commonly used exchange API can be completed with packaged functions. In particular, the multi-currency strategy, access to transactions, accounts and transactions have been much simplified than before, no longer requiring IO functions to access the exchange's API interface.

The host needs to upgrade to 3.7 for full support, and information about new API interface features has been updated in sync to the inventor's API documentation for the QT platform:

Obtaining accuracy

Currently, the API has a unified access precision function, which is presented here as a perpetual contract example.

//全局的变量，储存数据，SYMBOLS代表要交易的币种，格式如"BTC,ETH,LTC", QUOTO为基础货币，永续合约常见的有USDT，USDC，INTERVAL代表循环的间隔。
var Info = { trade_symbols: SYMBOLS.split(","), base_coin: QUOTO, ticker: {}, order: {}, account: {}, precision: {}, 
            position: {}, time:{}, count：{}, interval:INTERVAL}
function InitInfo() {
    //初始化策略
    if (!IsVirtual() && Version() < 3.7){
        throw "[trans]FMZ平台升级API，需要下载最新托管者|Update to neweset docekr[/trans]";
    }
    Info.account = {init_balance:0};
    Info.time = {
        update_ticker_time: 0,
        update_pos_time: 0,
        update_profit_time: 0,
        update_account_time: 0,
        update_status_time: 0,
        last_loop_time:0,
        loop_delay：0,
    };
    for (let i = 0; i < Info.trade_symbols.length; i++) {
        let symbol = Info.trade_symbols[i];
        Info.ticker[symbol] = { last: 0, ask: 0, bid: 0 };
        Info.order[symbol] = { buy: { id: 0, price: 0, amount: 0 }, sell: { id: 0, price: 0, amount: 0 } };
        Info.position[symbol] = { amount: 0, hold_price: 0, unrealised_profit: 0, open_time: 0, value: 0 };
        Info.precision[symbol] =  {};
    }
}
//获取精度
function GetPrecision() {
    let exchange_info = exchange.GetMarkets();
    for (let pair in exchange_info) {
        let symbol = pair.split('_')[0]; //永续合约交易对的格式为 BTC_USDT.swap
        if (Info.trade_symbols.indexOf(symbol) > -1 && pair.split('.')[0].endsWith(Info.base_coin) && pair.endsWith("swap")) {
            Info.precision[symbol].tick_size = exchange_info[pair].TickSize;
            Info.precision[symbol].amount_size = exchange_info[pair].AmountSize;
            Info.precision[symbol].price_precision = exchange_info[pair].PricePrecision
            Info.precision[symbol].amount_precision = exchange_info[pair].AmountPrecision
            Info.precision[symbol].min_qty = exchange_info[pair].MinQty
            Info.precision[symbol].max_qty = exchange_info[pair].MaxQty
            Info.precision[symbol].min_notional = exchange_info[pair].MinNotional
            Info.precision[symbol].ctVal = exchange_info[pair].CtVal; //合约价值，如1张代表0.01个币
            if (exchange_info[pair].CtValCcy != symbol){ //价值的计价货币，这里不处理币本位的情况，如1张价值100美元
                throw "[trans]不支持币本位|Don't support coin margin type[/trans]"
            }
        }
    }
}

Access to the market

It is necessary to access the entire market to design a multi-variety strategy. This aggregated market interface is essential, and the GetTickers function supports most mainstream exchanges.

function UpdateTicker() {
    //更新价格
    let ticker = exchange.GetTickers();
    if (!ticker) {
        Log("[trans]获取行情失败|Fail to get market[/trans]", GetLastError());
        return;
    }
    Info.time.update_ticker_time = Date.now();
    for (let i = 0; i < ticker.length; i++) {
        let symbol = ticker[i].Symbol.split('_')[0];
        if (!ticker[i].Symbol.split('.')[0].endsWith(Info.base_coin) || Info.trade_symbols.indexOf(symbol) < 0 || !ticker[i].Symbol.endsWith('swap')) {
            continue;
        }
        Info.ticker[symbol].ask = parseFloat(ticker[i].Sell);
        Info.ticker[symbol].bid = parseFloat(ticker[i].Buy);
        Info.ticker[symbol].last = parseFloat(ticker[i].Last);
    }
}

Access account position information

Futures account information has been added to the Equity Total Equity and UPnL fields, without the incompatibility caused by additional processing. The GetPositions function also supports the acquisition of all positions, a detail is that the number of positions to be multiplied by the value of a contract to obtain the real number, such as OKX Permanent.

function UpdateAccount() {
    //更新账户
    if (Date.now() - Info.time.update_account_time < 60 * 1000) {
        return;
    }
    Info.time.update_account_time = Date.now();
    let account = exchange.GetAccount();
    if (account === null) {
        Log("[trans]更新账户失败|Fail to get account[/trans]");
        return;
    }
    Info.account.margin_used = _N(account.Equity - account.Balance, 2);
    Info.account.margin_balance = _N(account.Equity, 2); //当前余额
    Info.account.margin_free = _N(account.Balance, 2);
    Info.account.wallet_balance = _N(account.Equity - account.UPnL, 2);
    Info.account.unrealised_profit = _N(account.UPnL, 2);
    if (!Info.account.init_balance) {
        if (_G("init_balance") && _G("init_balance") > 0) {
            Info.account.init_balance = _N(_G("init_balance"), 2);
        } else {
            Info.account.init_balance = Info.account.margin_balance;
            _G("init_balance", Info.account.init_balance);
        }
    }
    Info.account.profit = _N(Info.account.margin_balance - Info.account.init_balance, 2);
    Info.account.profit_rate = _N((100 * Info.account.profit) / init_balance, 2);
}

function UpdatePosition() {
    let pos = exchange.GetPositions(Info.base_coin + ".swap");
    if (!pos) {
        Log("[trans]更新仓位超时|Fail to get position[/trans]");
        return;
    }
    Info.time.update_pos_time = Date.now();
    let position_info = {};
    for (let symbol of Info.trade_symbols) {
        position_info[symbol] = {
            amount: 0,
            hold_price: 0,
            unrealised_profit: 0
        }; //有的交易所没有仓位返回空
    }
    for (let k = 0; k < pos.length; k++) {
        let symbol = pos[k].Symbol.split("_")[0];
        if (!pos[k].Symbol.split(".")[0].endsWith(Info.base_coin) || Info.trade_symbols.indexOf(symbol) < 0) {
            continue;
        }
        if (position_info[symbol].amount != 0){
            throw "[trans]需要单向持仓|Position need net Mode:[/trans]";
        }
        position_info[symbol] = {
            amount: pos[k].Type == 0 ? pos[k].Amount * Info.precision[symbol].ctVal : -pos[k].Amount * Info.precision[symbol].ctVal,
            hold_price: pos[k].Price,
            unrealised_profit: pos[k].Profit
        };
    }
    Info.count = { long: 0, short: 0, total: 0, leverage: 0 };
    for (let symbol in position_info) {
        let deal_volume = Math.abs(position_info[symbol].amount - Info.position[symbol].amount);
        let direction = position_info[symbol].amount - Info.position[symbol].amount > 0 ? 1 : -1;
        if (deal_volume) {
            let deal_price = direction == 1 ? Info.order[symbol].buy.price : Info.order[symbol].sell.price;
            Log(
                symbol,
                "[trans]仓位更新：|Position update:[/trans]",
                _N(Info.position[symbol].value, 1),
                " -> ",
                _N(position_info[symbol].amount * Info.ticker[symbol].last, 1),
                direction == 1 ? "[trans], 买|. Buy[/trans]" : "[trans], 卖|, Sell[/trans]",
                "[trans], 成交价:| Deal price: [/trans]",
                deal_price,
                "[trans], 成本价：| Hold price: [/trans]",
                _N(Info.position[symbol].hold_price, Info.precision[symbol].price_precision),
            );
        }
        Info.position[symbol].amount = position_info[symbol].amount;
        Info.position[symbol].hold_price = position_info[symbol].hold_price;
        Info.position[symbol].value = _N(Info.position[symbol].amount * Info.ticker[symbol].last, 2);
        Info.position[symbol].unrealised_profit = position_info[symbol].unrealised_profit;
        Info.count.long += Info.position[symbol].amount > 0 ? Math.abs(Info.position[symbol].value) : 0;
        Info.count.short += Info.position[symbol].amount < 0 ? Math.abs(Info.position[symbol].value) : 0;
    }
    Info.count.total = _N(Info.count.long + Info.count.short, 2);
    Info.count.leverage = _N(Info.count.total / Info.account.margin_balance, 2);
}

The deal

The transaction also handles the issue of the number of orders, which is made much easier by using the latest CreateOrder function.

function Order(symbol, direction, price, amount, msg) {
    let ret = null;
    let pair = symbol + "_" + Info.base_coin + ".swap"
    ret = exchange.CreateOrder(pair, direction, price,  amount, msg)
    if (ret) {
        Info.order[symbol][direction].id = ret;
        Info.order[symbol][direction].price = price;
    }else {
        Log(symbol, direction, price, amount, "[trans]下单异常|Error on order[/trans]");
    }
}

function Trade(symbol, direction, price, amount, msg) {
    price = _N(price - (price % Info.precision[symbol].tick_size), Info.precision[symbol].price_precision);
    amount = amount / Info.precision[symbol].ctVal;
    amount = _N(amount - (amount % Info.precision[symbol].amount_size), Info.precision[symbol].amount_precision);
    amount = Info.precision[symbol].max_qty > 0 ? Math.min(amount, Info.precision[symbol].max_qty) : amount;
    let new_order = false;
    if (price > 0 && Math.abs(price - Info.order[symbol][direction].price) / price > 0.0001) { //两次订单有差价了才撤单
        new_order = true;
    }
    if (amount <= 0 || Info.order[symbol][direction].id == 0) { //传入amount为0 撤单
        new_order = true;
    }
    if (new_order) {
        if (Info.order[symbol][direction].id) { //原有订单撤销
            CancelOrder(symbol, direction, Info.order[symbol][direction].id);
            Info.order[symbol][direction].id = 0;
        }
        if ( //延时过高不下单
            Date.now() - Info.time.update_pos_time > 2 * Info.interval * 1000 ||
            Date.now() - Info.time.update_ticker_time > 2 * Info.interval * 1000 ||
        ) {
            return;
        }
        if (price * amount <= Info.precision[symbol].min_notional || amount < Info.precision[symbol].min_qty) {
            Log(symbol, "[trans]下单量太低|amount is too small[/trans]", price * amount);
            return;
        }
        Order(symbol, direction, price, amount, msg);
    }
}

State of play

}

Logic of the transaction

Once the scaffolding is in place, the core trading logic code is simple, and here's a simple iceberg-breaking strategy.

function MakeOrder() {
    for (let i in Info.trade_symbols) {
        let symbol = Info.trade_symbols[i];
        let buy_price = Info.ticker[symbol].bid;
        let buy_amount = 50 / buy_price;
        if (Info.position[symbol].value < 2000){
            Trade(symbol, "buy", buy_price, buy_amount, symbol);
        }
    }
}

Main cycle

function OnTick() {
    try {
        UpdateTicker();
        UpdatePosition();
        MakeOrder();
        UpdateStatus();
    } catch (error) {
        Log("[trans]循环出错: | Loop error: [/trans]" + error);
    }
}

function main() {
    InitInfo();
    while (true) {
        let loop_start_time = Date.now();
        if (Date.now() - Info.time.last_loop_time > Info.interval * 1000) {
            OnTick();
            Info.time.last_loop_time = Date.now();
            Info.time.loop_delay = Date.now() - loop_start_time;
        }
        Sleep(5);
    }
}
