# MidasTrader
[](LICENSE)
[](https://pypi.org/project/midastrader/)
MidasTrader is a robust trading system designed for seamless transitions between backtesting and live trading without requiring changes to user code. It integrates a flexible architecture combining a data engine, execution engine, and core components that streamline the strategy development process. The system is built with a multi-threaded design where each component communicates via a shared message bus.
### Key Components
1. **Core Engine**:
- Central to the system, the Core Engine includes:
- **Order Book**: Tracks market depth and price movements.
- **Portfolio Server**: Manages and tracks portfolio allocations and positions.
- **Performance Tracking**: Calculates and monitors key trading metrics.
- **Order Management System**: Handles order placement, modifications, and cancellations.
- **Base Strategy**: A foundation for user-defined strategies.
2. **Data Engine**:
- Connects to user-defined data sources:
- **Midas Server**: Access historical data via the Midas ecosystem.
- **Binary Data Files**: Handles local files encoded with the Midas Binary Encoding Library.
- **External Sources**: Currently supports Databento, with more integrations planned.
3. **Execution Engine**:
- Facilitates live trading by connecting to brokers:
- Currently supports Interactive Brokers.
- Users can configure broker details in the `config.toml` file.
## Installation
You can install `midastrader` directly from [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/midastrader/):
```bash
pip install midastrader
```
## Configuration
### Configuration File (`config.toml`)
Define system parameters, including data sources, execution settings, and strategy configuration.
- Example : [config.toml](example/config.toml)
### Strategy File (`logic.py`)
Strategies are implemented by extending the `BaseStrategy` class. Define your custom logic in Python.
- Example : [logic.py](example/logic.py)
## Usage
#### CLI Mode
Run the system using the following commands:
```bash
# Backtest Mode
midas path/to/config.toml backtest
# Live Mode
midas path/to/config.toml live
```
#### Application Mode
Alternatively, you can use the system programmatically in your application:
```python
from midas.cli import run
# Backtest Mode
run("path/to/config.toml", "backtest")
# Live Mode
run("path/to/config.toml", "live")
```
