Tradomate Config

The configuration of your trading bot is done through the TradomateConfig object.

This object is passed to the strategy_info function, which is the first function that is called when your strategy is executed. You can setup the different configurations here.

It is also passed to your strategy function as the first argument. This allows you to access the configuration from within your strategy function.

Configuration options

Option	Type	Description	Default Value
symbols	List[str]	List of symbols to trade. This cannot be changed or set manually.	The symbol selected to trade
initial_capital	float	Initial capital to trade with	1000000

Custom configuration

You can add your own custom configuration options to the TradomateConfig object.

This can be done by adding a new key-value pair to the config object.

Example usage

strategy.py

import tradomate as tm

def strategy_info(config: tm.TradomateConfig):
    # Setting initial capital
    config.initial_capital = 1000

    # Creating a custom configuration option for length of EMA
    config.length = 14

@tm.strategy()
def my_handler(config: tm.TradomateConfig, data: tm.TradomateData):
    # Build your Trading Strategy here.

    # Get the length of EMA from the config
    ema = tm.ta.ema(data.close, timeperiod=config.length)

    # Rest of the strategy
    if tm.ta.cross_over(ema, data.close):
        tm.enter_long_position_market(
            quantity=config.quantity,
            comment="Long",
        )

    if tm.ta.cross_under(ema, data.close):
        tm.enter_short_position_market(
            quantity=config.quantity,
            comment="Short",
        )
