Recently, some of our platform users are looking forward to transplanting a MyLanguage strategy into a JavaScript strategy, which can flexibly add many optimization ideas. Even expand the strategy to multi-species versions. Because the MyLanguage strategy is usually a trend strategy, and many of them are executed based on the closing price model. The API interface of the strategy request exchange is not very frequent, which is suitable for transplanting to multi-species strategy version. In this article, we will take a simple MyLanguage strategy as an example to transplant it into a simple version of JavaScript language. The main purpose is teaching and backtesting research. If you want to make a real bot, you may need to add some details (order price, quantity accuracy, order quantity control, order by asset percentage, status information display, etc.), and also need real bot test.
The Strategy of the MyLanguage to be Transplanted
TR:=MAX(MAX((H-L),ABS(REF(C,1)-H)),ABS(REF(C,1)-L));
ATR:=EMA(TR,LENGTH2);
MIDLINE^^EMA((H + L + C)/3,LENGTH1);
UPBAND^^MIDLINE + N*ATR;
DOWNBAND^^MIDLINE - N*ATR;
BKVOL=0 AND C>=UPBAND AND REF(C,1)<REF(UPBAND,1),BPK;
SKVOL=0 AND C<=DOWNBAND AND REF(C,1)>REF(DOWNBAND,1),SPK;
BKVOL>0 AND C<=MIDLINE,SP(BKVOL);
SKVOL>0 AND C>=MIDLINE,BP(SKVOL);
// stop loss
// stop loss
C>=SKPRICE*(1+SLOSS*0.01),BP;
C<=BKPRICE*(1-SLOSS*0.01),SP;
AUTOFILTER;
The trading logic of this strategy is simple. First, calculate ATR according to the parameters, then calculate the average of the highest, lowest and closing prices of all K-line BARs, and then calculate the EMA indicator according to the average data. Finally, combine ATR and coefficient N in parameters to calculate the upBand and downBand.
Opening and selling positions are based on the closing price. Open long positions when it surmount the upBand and sell the opening position (when holding short positions). Open short positions when it surmount the downBand and sell the opening position.
When the closing price reaches the midline, the position will be closed, and when the closing price reaches the stop loss price, the position will also be closed (stop loss according to the SLOSS, SLOSS is 1, that is 0.01, that is, 1%).
The strategy is executed in a closing price model.
OK, if we understand the strategic requirements and ideas of MyLanguage, we can start to transplant them.
Transplant and Design Strategy Prototype
There are not many strategy prototype codes, ranging from 1 to 200 lines. In order to facilitate the learning of strategy writing ideas, comments are directly written in the strategy code.
