Superalgos - Process Definition

Process Definition

The process definition node groups all definitions required for a process to function. The Multi-Time-Frame-Market Process deals with time frames of one hour and above. The Multi-Time-Frame-Daily Process deals with time frames of 45 minutes and below.

Content

As hinted above, most bots—in particular indicators—have two different processes. The reason is that different data structures need to be handled in different manners. The process handles daily files, while the process handles market files.

The process deals with time frames of one hour and above. Because these time frames produce relatively small numbers of records, the process builds one single file per time frame spanning the whole market history—hence the name .

On the other hand, the process deals with time frames below one hour. These time frames produce huge numbers of records, therefore, the corresponding data must be fragmented in multiple files. The process builds one file per day for each time frame—hence the name .

Note: The way in which datasets are structured by each of the processes is determined by the corresponding dataset definitions.

Warning: When editing process definitions, pay attention to running tasks using these. For modifications to be effective, you have to stop/start the concerned tasks
