Since we now support universe selection and by convention never remove a security
object, we can't rely on the counts of the security manager to perform limits on
data subscriptions, this logic was moved deeper into the engine, where we perform
UniverseSelection, which is the path taken to add new data subscriptions
Removed ISetupHandler.SetErrorHandler, this is replaced by
brokerage.Message += (sender, message) => algorithm.BrokerageMessageHandler.Handle(message)
allowing algorithm direct access to managing the brokerage messages
Adds the ScheduleManager which allows an algorithm to add/remove scheduled events
Check out the ScheduledEventsAlgorithm for syntax
ScheduledEvents are at their core an IEnumerator<DateTime> that defines the event times coupled with a callback
IDateRule defines dates for events
ITimeRule defines time(s) on a given date for events
Time sync:
* Data feeds are required to time sync in UTC time
* TimeSlice.Time is now in UTC
IAlgorithm
* Time is now exclusively the algorithm's local time zone
* Added UtcTime
* SetDateTime( DateTime ) accepts a UTC time and is internally converted
SubscriptionDataConfig
* Adds market and time zone as required ctor parameters
SecurityExchange
* Now passes most calls directly through to SecurityExchangeHours class
SecurityExchangeHours
* Holds market hours for each day of week (LocalMarketHours)
* Talks in terms of local times in the SecurityExchangeHours.TimeZone time zone
Data/market-hours/
* New data folder to hold market hour information
* Includes market-hours-database.csv to hold market hours per market/symbol/security (see doc in file)
* Includes holidays-usa.csv to hold holidays for 'usa' market
+ The holiday files follow the pattern 'holidays-*.csv' where * is the market
TimeKeeper
* Receives updates in UTC time
* Passes that to LocalTimeKeeper's who lazily evaluate the time in their respective time zones
* Eventually this can grow to be the sole source of time in the algorithm's scope
MISC:
* Fixes exception thrown when exiting LiveTradingDataFeed
* Fixes exception thrown when exiting FileSystemDataFeed
* Fixes exception thrown when exiting StatusPing
* Simplify FillForwardEnumerator logic with GetNextMarketOpen
* Adds many time zones, see TimeZones.cs
Changed system to use Margin Models, removing leverage wherever possible allowing for dynamic margin models.
Created first portfolio fill model for FOREX which treats it as a currency swap through the cashbook instead of a tradable asset.
Updated the Securities/SecurityPortfolioManager to use cashbook value + holdings removing FOREX virtual positions.
Created a new benchmark system for comparing quantconnect builds.
