StopLimitOrders seems to be coded improperly. The buy order had the limit price below the stop price, and the sell order had the limit prive above the stop price. By reversing the two, we can guarantee a sell limit at 0.25% below the close price and a buy limit at 0.25% above the close price, with a stop price at -0.1% and 0.1% respectively.
Changed function of BasicTemplateFuturesConsolidatorAlgorithm.py to use OnSecuritiesChanged to add/remove consolidators. Wrote equivalent algorithm for options data
- Adding new `SetAccountCurrency()` for backtesting. Has to be called
before adding any `Security` or calling `SetCash()`, else will throw.
- Adding new Non account currency unit tests for `CashBuyingPower`,
`SecurityPortfolioModel`, `SecurityMarginModel`,
`SecurityPortfolioManager`, `Future/OptionMarginBuyingPowerModels`
- Adding new C# regression test using `SetAccountCurrency()`, one for
`CashBuyingPowerModel` and one for `SecurityMarginModel`
- Adding new Py and C# basic regression algorithms using
`SetAccountCurrency()`
- `Options` and `Futures` will use not use `AccountCurrency` as quote
Cash.
- `SecurityBenchmark` value will be in account currency
- Requires a new PythonNet 1.0.5.15 package where the different `.dll` are in a
specific folder: `\win` `\linux` and `\osx`
- Removed not present `decimal.py` from `Algorithm.Python` project. It
was moved into `Common`.
- Replace `xbuild` for `msbuild` required for using the `System.Runtime.InteropServices`.
Also note the `xbuild` on travis prints:
> >>>> xbuild tool is deprecated and will be removed in future updates, use msbuild instead <<<<
In the new package:
- C# decimal conversion will use C# double and python float due to the big performance impact of converting C# decimal to python decimal;
- This commit is related to PR 19 in QC/pythonnet
- C# decimal will be cast to C# double and converted into python
float
- Adding new `decimal.py` into the python algorithm project. This is
required for backwards compatibility with users performing operations
over expected decimal types (like `Price`)
- Updating two python regression test algorithms using custom python
execution models to be aware and ignore floating point precision errors
when handling order sizing.
- The HistoryRequestBenchmark will now perform a daily and minute history
request at end of day.
- C# performance is at ~15k data points per second
- Python performance is at ~11k data points per second
Explictly implements the indexert `this[string]` to all classed that inherit from `DataDictionary` since pythonnet was not able to access the indexer from the parent class.
- Changes DividentAlgorithm.py to test the fix.
- Moving `UniverseSelection.EnsureCurrencyDataFeeds` call into the
`IResultHandler` implementation through usage of the new `SetupHandlerHelper`
class, that will also set an initial conversion rate if none present.
- Adding regression test, that reproduces original issue
- Disabling C# and Py `BasicTemplateIntrinioEconomicData` regression
test. Free user credentials are invalid because Intrinio has now a 30 day trial for free users
- `CashBook[NullCurrency] { get; }` will throw an exception
- Revert `Currencies.USD` changes in user facing algorithms
- Improve some documentation
- Revert some format changes
- Adding more asserts for regression test
- Adding new regression tests using a custom fee model which returns
`OrderFee.Zero`
- Adding a non-usd account currency test to the cash book tests
- Adding some unit tests for `NullCurrency` and `OrderFee.Zero`
- Removing `AccountCurrency` from `Cash` and `Brokerage` classes.
`ICurrencyConverter` will now provide the `AccountCurrency`
- Adding new static `OrderFee.Zero` which will return a 0 order fee in
`NullCurrency`
- Adding static `Currencies.USD` value, replacing all "USD".
- Addin new static `Currencies.NullCurrency`
- Updating Bitfinex `FeeModel` so it return fees in quote currency.
Adding unit tests
- Refactoring `IFeeModel`. *This is a breaking change* for implementations
inheriting directly from the interface. Deleting old and adding a new method
`OrderFee GetOrderFee(OrderFeeParameters parameters)` that will use a parameter
and a result object.
- Refactoring `CashAmount` so it does not embed a `ICurrencyConverter`
instance.
- Updating unit tests
- The `Security.QuoteCurrency`, a `Cash` instance, will provide access
to the `AccountCurrency` as a property.
- Will maintain backwards compatibility with old python custom
FeeModels, Adding unit test.
> Note that for now, consumers will ignore the currency, as before, and
directly consume the amount
