Difficulties to add a strategy

[faycalrakza]

Hello,

I created my own indicator in Java. I wanted to use your bot because I like the backtesting functionality. The problem is that I don't find where is the strategy. I thought I would find things like "rsi < 30 buy" etc. Can you do a tutorial to add an indicator ? The strategy is simple, it's just "buy under this price" and "take profit here"

Thanks

It isn't too complicated. This is where the indicators are added

TradeBot/src/main/java/trading/Currency.java

Lines 52 to 54 in 41bb4db

	indicators.add(new RSI(closingPrices, 14));
	indicators.add(new MACD(closingPrices, 12, 26, 9));
	indicators.add(new DBB(closingPrices, 20));

Then they get checked here

TradeBot/src/main/java/trading/Currency.java

Lines 142 to 144 in 41bb4db

	public int check() {
	return indicators.stream().mapToInt(indicator -> indicator.check(currentPrice)).sum();
	}

And the results are checked here

TradeBot/src/main/java/trading/Currency.java

Lines 135 to 137 in 41bb4db

	} else if (confluence >= CONFLUENCE_TARGET && BuySell.enoughFunds()) {
	BuySell.open(Currency.this, "Trade opened due to: " + getExplanations());
	}

All of the indicators are here

This is how it currently works but after the rework the config yaml file will contain the indicators you want to use.
