Superalgos - Accessing Runtime Data

Accessing Runtime Data

Summary: The makes every piece of information processed available to Systems in the data structure of the hierarchy.

To access the value of any of the nodes in the from within conditions and formulas, the syntax follows the ramifications of the data structure, exactly as seen in the visual representation of the hierarchy on the .

For example, let’s say you wish to access the value of the node under . The path to that node, as denoted by the structure of the hierarchy below, is:

 tradingEngine.tradingCurrent.strategyOpenStage.begin.value

If you wish to go one step lower and access the value of the under the , then the path is:

 tradingEngine.tradingCurrent.strategyOpenStage.stageQuotedAsset.targetSize.value

Note: As usual, make sure you follow the JavaScript camel case notation by which the first word is in lower case and the rest in uppercase.

Copy Node Path

For ease of use, you may copy the path of any node that holds a valid value directly from within the node’s menu. Simply use the Copy Node Path button.

Formula Example

Let’s say you wish to set a take profit 3% above the initial target rate you defined in the open stage of your strategy.

That value is stored in the node under the Current .

So, the formula for the take profit phase is:

 tradingEngine.tradingCurrent.position.entryTargetRate.value * 1.03

Tip: All of this will become clear when you study the hierarchy!
