The BTCJump strategy is a trading strategy implemented as a class called BTCJump, which inherits from the IStrategy class. It consists of three main functions: populate_indicators, populate_buy_trend, and populate_sell_trend. populate_indicators:
This function adds various technical analysis (TA) indicators to the input DataFrame.
The indicators used include:
'btc_gain': Percentage gain of BTC price within a 5-minute timeframe.
'btc_zgain': Difference between 'btc_gain' and a user-defined value called 'buy_btc_jump'.
'adx': Average Directional Index. 'dm_plus' and 'dm_minus': Plus and minus directional movement indicators. 'di_plus' and 'di_minus': Plus and minus directional indicators. 'dm_delta': Difference between 'dm_plus' and 'dm_minus'. 'di_delta': Difference between 'di_plus' and 'di_minus'. 'mfi': Money Flow Index. 'sma': Simple Moving Average with a time period of 40. 'macd': Moving Average Convergence Divergence. 'macdsignal': Signal line of the MACD. 'fastd' and 'fastk': Fast stochastic indicators. 'rsi': Relative Strength Index. 'fisher_rsi': Fisher Transform of the RSI. 'bb_upperband', 'bb_middleband', and 'bb_lowerband': Bollinger Bands. 'bb_gain': Percentage difference between the upper Bollinger Band and the closing price. 'ema5', 'ema10', 'ema50', and 'ema100': Exponential Moving Averages with different time periods. 'sar': Parabolic SAR. populate_buy_trend:
This function populates the 'buy' column of the DataFrame based on certain conditions. The conditions include:
'fisher_rsi' being less than or equal to a user-defined value called 'buy_fisher'. 'bb_gain' being greater than or equal to a user-defined value called 'buy_bb_gain'. Cross above zero for the 'btc_zgain' indicator. populate_sell_trend:
This function populates the 'sell' column of the DataFrame. Currently, it sets the 'sell' value to 0 for all rows where the 'close' price is greater than or equal to zero. Overall, the BTCJump strategy combines multiple TA indicators to generate buy signals based on specified conditions, while the sell signals are not explicitly defined in the provided code snippet.
