CycleDuration

API documentation for tradeexecutor.strategy.cycle.CycleDuration Python class in Trading Strategy framework.

class CycleDuration

Bases: Enum

Strategy cycle duration options.

This enum defines what strategy cycle durations backtesting and live testing engine supports.

It is also the value you can enter as trading_strategy_cycle option for your strategies.

All cycles are aligned to the wall clock time. E.g. 24h cycle is always run at 00:00.

See Strategy cycle for more information.

to_timedelta()

Get the duration of the strategy cycle as Python timedelta object.

Return type:

timedelta

to_timebucket()

Convert to trading-strategy client format.

TODO: Try to avoid tightly coupling and leaking trading-strategy client here.

Unlike TimeBucket, CycleDuration may have “unknown” value that is presented by None

Return type:

Optional[TimeBucket]

get_yearly_periods()

How many decision cycle periods a year has.

This metric is used to calculate Sharpe, other metrics.

See tradeexecutor.analysis.advanced_metrics.calculate_advanced_metrics() for more information.

Return type:

float

static from_timebucket(bucket)

Convert from OHLCV time frame.

Parameters:

bucket (TimeBucket) –

Return type:

Optional[CycleDuration]
