data — OHLCV Collection

from AlgoTradeKit.data import Collector

collector = Collector(
    exchange="binance_futures",
    symbol="BTCUSDT",
    timeframes=["1h", "4h"],
    save_dir="data/",
)
data = collector.fetch(start="2024-01-01", end="2024-12-31")
# data["1h"] → pd.DataFrame  columns: timestamp(UTC ms), open, high, low, close, volume

Load from an existing CSV:

import pandas as pd
data = {"1h": pd.read_csv("data/binance-futures_BTCUSDT_1h.csv")}

Normalizing non-standard CSVs (v0.7.2)

Broker / MT5 exports often use Unix-second timestamps and omit optional columns. Normalizer converts any OHLCV CSV to the library standard automatically:

from AlgoTradeKit.data import Normalizer

# Accepts: timestamp in seconds OR milliseconds (auto-detected)
# Required columns: timestamp, open, high, low, close
# Optional: volume (defaults to 0 if absent)
norm = Normalizer("USDJPY_1m.csv")
norm.start = "2022/01/01"   # optional date filter
norm.end   = "2024/01/01"

# Return as DataFrame (no file written)
df = norm.normalize()

# Save as library-standard CSV
path = norm.save(destination="data/")

# One-liner: normalize + save
df, path = Normalizer("USDJPY_1m.csv").normalize_and_save(destination="data/")

---

indicator — Technical Indicators

All indicators are built from scratch — no third-party TA wrappers.

from AlgoTradeKit.indicator import ATR, RSI, MACD, EMA, SMA, Ichimoku

close = df["close"]   # pd.Series

rsi  = RSI(close, length=14)           # rsi.rsi
macd = MACD(close, fast=12, slow=26, signal=9)
                                        # macd.macd, .signal, .histogram
ema  = EMA(close, length=20)           # ema.ema
sma  = SMA(close, length=50)           # sma.sma
atr  = ATR(df["high"], df["low"], close, period=14)  # atr.atr, atr.tr
ichi = Ichimoku(df["high"], df["low"], close)
                                        # ichi.tenkan / kijun / senkou_a / senkou_b
                                        # ichi.chikou / cloud_future_a / cloud_future_b
                                        # ichi.span_a_raw / span_b_raw  ← v0.7.2

ATR — Average True Range (v0.7.2)

Wilder's smoothing (RMA, alpha = 1/period). Matches TradingView ta.atr().

atr = ATR(df["high"], df["low"], df["close"], period=14)
df["atr"] = atr.atr.values   # Wilder-smoothed ATR
df["tr"]  = atr.tr.values    # raw True Range

Ichimoku.span_a_raw / .span_b_raw (v0.7.2)

Unshifted Senkou Span A and B (at the current bar, before the displacement shift is applied). Useful in strategy logic where you need the live cloud value:

ichi = Ichimoku(high, low, close, displacement=26)
# ichi.senkou_a   = span_a_raw.shift(26)  — displayed cloud (forward-shifted)
# ichi.span_a_raw = (tenkan + kijun) / 2  — current bar value (unshifted)

---

strategy — Signal Generation

Subclass BaseStrategy, implement two methods, and return Signal objects.

from AlgoTradeKit.strategy import BaseStrategy, Signal, StrategyMode

class EMAStrategy(BaseStrategy):

    def prepare_indicators(self, data):
        df = data["1h"].copy()
        df["ema20"] = EMA(df["close"], 20).value
        return {**data, "1h": df}

    def generate_signals(self, data):
        df, signals = data["1h"], []
        for i in range(1, len(df)):
            r, p = df.iloc[i], df.iloc[i - 1]
            if p["close"] < p["ema20"] and r["close"] >= r["ema20"]:
                signals.append(Signal(
                    direction="long",
                    entry_price=r["close"],
                    stop_loss=r["close"] * 0.98,
                    take_profit=r["close"] * 1.04,
                    timestamp=int(r["timestamp"]),
                    candle_index=i,
                    timeframe="1h",
                ))
        return signals

result = EMAStrategy().run(data, mode=StrategyMode.BACKTEST)

Strategy Drawings (v0.7.0)

Strategies can attach visual drawings so they appear on the candle chart:

# In generate_signals or prepare_indicators:
self._drawings.append({
    "type": "hline", "price": 42000.0,
    "color": "#58a6ff", "label": "Support",
})

# Return them in StrategyResult:
return StrategyResult(..., drawings=self._drawings)

Built-in Strategies

Strategy	Import
MACD Crossover	from AlgoTradeKit.strategy.builtin.macd import MACDCrossoverStrategy

from AlgoTradeKit.strategy.builtin.macd import MACDCrossoverStrategy

strategy = MACDCrossoverStrategy(fast=12, slow=26, signal=9,
                                  sl_atr_multiplier=1.5, timeframe="1h")
result = strategy.run(data)

---

simulate — Backtesting Engine

Replay StrategyResult signals candle-by-candle and produce a SimulateReport.

Basic Usage

from AlgoTradeKit.simulate import Simulate, SimulateConfig

config = SimulateConfig(
    initial_balance=10_000,
    symbol="btcusdt",
    leverage=10,
    commission=0.001,         # 0.1% per side
    risk_per_trade=1.0,       # 1% of balance at risk
    tp_mode="fixed_rr",
    tp_rr=2.0,
    primary_timeframe="1h",
)
report = Simulate(config).run(strategy_result)
print(report)

Auto Visualisation (v0.7.0)

config = SimulateConfig(
    ...
    show_chart=True,          # open candle chart with position boxes
    report_mode="both",       # "none" | "webpage" | "save" | "both"
    report_save_path="report.html",
)
report = Simulate(config).run(strategy_result)
# → two browser tabs open: candle chart and report page
# → report.html saved to disk

SimulateConfig Key Fields

Field	Default	Description
initial_balance	10 000	Starting wallet balance
leverage	1.0	Leverage multiplier
commission	0.001	0.1% per side (percentage mode)
risk_per_trade	1.0	% of balance at risk per trade
tp_mode	"signal"	"signal"/"fixed_rr"/"multi_rr"/"none"
tp_rr	2.0	R:R ratio for fixed_rr mode
tp_levels	[1,2,3]	R levels for multi_rr mode
tp_level_close_fractions	None	v0.7.3 Fraction of original size to realise at each tp_levels entry (multi_rr only) — see below
sl_mode	"signal"	"signal" or "trailing"
risk_free_enabled	False	Move SL to break-even at risk_free_at_rr
show_chart	False	v0.7.0 Open candle chart after run
report_mode	"none"	v0.7.0 Post-run report rendering
report_save_path	"report.html"	v0.7.0 HTML save path

Per-Signal Sizing & Partial Take-Profit (v0.7.3)

Signal.risk_multiplier scales one signal's size relative to the run's sizing config — useful for varying risk by context, or for splitting one trade idea into several sub-positions whose sizes sum to one risk unit:

# Three signals at the same candle, each risking 1/3 of a normal trade,
# targeting 1R / 2R / 3R — equivalent to scaling out of one position.
for i, tp_r in enumerate([1, 2, 3], start=1):
    signals.append(Signal(
        direction="long", entry_price=entry, stop_loss=sl,
        take_profit=entry + tp_r * (entry - sl),
        timestamp=ts, candle_index=idx, timeframe="1h",
        risk_multiplier=1 / 3,
    ))

SimulateConfig.tp_level_close_fractions turns multi_rr into a true scale-out — each level realises a real, partial close instead of only moving the SL:

config = SimulateConfig(
    ...,
    tp_mode="multi_rr",
    tp_levels=[1.0, 2.0, 3.0],
    tp_level_close_fractions=[1 / 3, 1 / 3, 1 / 3],  # bank 1/3 at each level
)

Set every fraction to 0.0 instead to get the opposite pattern — SL walks through every level but nothing closes until the position is eventually stopped out, letting winners run with a trailing stop and no fixed target.

Batch Sweep

from AlgoTradeKit.simulate import run_batch

reports = run_batch(strategy, data, [
    SimulateConfig(tp_rr=1.5),
    SimulateConfig(tp_rr=2.0),
    SimulateConfig(tp_rr=3.0),
])
best = max(reports, key=lambda r: r.sharpe_ratio)

Multi-Pair Portfolio

from AlgoTradeKit.simulate import run_multi

report = run_multi([
    (btc_strategy, btc_data, SimulateConfig(symbol="btcusdt")),
    (eth_strategy, eth_data, SimulateConfig(symbol="ethusdt")),
], initial_balance=10_000)

SimulateReport

report.total_pnl          # float
report.win_rate           # float (%)
report.profit_factor      # gross profit / gross loss
report.sharpe_ratio       # annualised Sharpe
report.sortino_ratio
report.calmar_ratio
report.max_drawdown       # DrawdownPeriod

visual — Interactive Chart

Interactive candlestick chart served locally, based on TradingView's lightweight-charts.

from AlgoTradeKit.visual import Chart

chart = Chart.from_csv("data/binance-futures_BTCUSDT_1h.csv")
chart.show(block=True)

Candle range filter (v0.7.2)

Restrict which candles are visible without modifying the source data:

# Show a specific datetime range
chart = Chart.from_csv("data/btc_1h.csv",
    candle_range={"start": "2024/01/01", "end": "2024/06/01"})

# From a date to the last candle
chart = Chart.from_csv("data/btc_1h.csv",
    candle_range={"start": "2024/06/01"})

# From the first candle to a date
chart = Chart.from_csv("data/btc_1h.csv",
    candle_range={"end": "2024/01/01"})

# Last / first N candles
chart = Chart.from_csv("data/btc_1h.csv", candle_range={"last_n": 500})
chart = Chart.from_csv("data/btc_1h.csv", candle_range={"first_n": 200})

# Also available on set_data()
chart.set_data(df, candle_range={"start": "2023/01/01", "end": "2024/01/01"})

Add Indicators

from AlgoTradeKit.visual import add_rsi, add_macd, add_ma, add_ichimoku
from AlgoTradeKit.indicator import RSI, MACD, EMA, Ichimoku

add_rsi(chart,  RSI(df["close"]),             timestamps=df["timestamp"])
add_macd(chart, MACD(df["close"]),            timestamps=df["timestamp"])
add_ma(chart,   EMA(df["close"], 20),         timestamps=df["timestamp"], name="EMA 20")
add_ichimoku(chart, Ichimoku(df["high"], df["low"], df["close"]),
                              timestamps=df["timestamp"])

Drawings

chart.add_hline(price=42_000, label="Support")
chart.add_box(time1=1700000000, price1=41_000,
              time2=1700007200, price2=43_000, opacity=0.1)
chart.add_signal(time=1700000000, side="buy")

Position Boxes (v0.7.0)

TradingView-style position boxes showing SL/TP zones with R:R labels:

from AlgoTradeKit.visual.indicator_renderer import add_simulation_positions

chart = Chart.from_csv("data/binance-futures_BTCUSDT_1h.csv")
add_simulation_positions(chart, report, opacity=0.15, config=sim_config)
chart.show(block=True)

Dynamic SL/TP lines (v0.7.4) — when config is passed, coloured horizontal lines are drawn on the chart for every trade where the SL moved:

Colour	Meaning
🔴 Red	SL is in the loss zone (below entry for long)
🟡 Amber	SL is at break-even (entry price)
🔵 Cyan	SL is in profit territory
🟢 Green	Next TP target (multi_rr only)

The position box's profit-zone boundary is also corrected to show the TP target that was active at the moment of closing rather than the initial TP at entry. For trailing-SL trades the box top is set to peak_price (the highest price the trailing SL ever chased).

Manual single box:

chart.add_position_box(
    open_time=1700000000, close_time=1700003600,
    entry_price=50_000, stop_loss=49_500, take_profit=51_000,
    direction="long", net_pnl=100.0, close_reason="tp",
    trade_id=1, rr_ratio=2.0,
)

Indicator Toolbar (v0.7.4)

The chart toolbar now has an Add Indicator (📈) button. Clicking it opens a panel where indicators can be added interactively at runtime — no code required:

• Moving averages: EMA, SMA, WMA, SMMA, DEMA, TEMA, HMA, VWMA, VWAP
• Oscillators: RSI (with optional MA), MACD, ATR
• Trend: Ichimoku Cloud

Each type shows its own parameter form. After clicking Add to Chart, the server computes the indicator from the OHLCV data and the chart updates immediately. Indicators added this way work exactly like those added via add_ma() / add_rsi() / etc. in Python code.
