This looks super cool!

I would love to play around with this, but the docs are a little light at the moment (unless I missed them). Would definitely recommend pushing docs and content on how to build custom strats, extend the main framework with custom reporting or new exchanges.

It does Binance but it's unclear to me what product types (I'm assuming spot markets).

Things I recommend exploring: (high latency) arbitrage between derivs and spot (for example cash and carry arbitrage). Or super simple funding arb on coinmargined perps (short 1x into synthetic usd). Pure directional is hard, and besides that there is a ton of alpha in more market neutral stuff.

A long while back I created a framework with a lot of overlapping functionality called Gekko (not trying to shill, I haven't maintained it for years). It took what I learned from that experience and build a prop trading firm called Folkvang. Crypto has a sea of opportunities ready to seize and in a bull market like we've seen in the last few months there is plenty of fish for everyone (yes there is a free lunch, even for those without a decade of quant/HFT experience from wall street).

Yes, for now it supports only spot market. The docs are very poor for now, the project is recent (a couple of weeks), but I will try to create a website for it, soon.

I used Gekko for a long time, it is a great project.!


Where can I learn more about the concepts you mentioned? I find it quite hard to acquire knowledge in that area as I don‘t even get to formulate the right questions.
