Why Blankly?

Blankly is an ecosystem for algotraders enabling anyone to build, monetize and scale their trading algorithms for stocks, crypto, futures or forex. The same code can be backtested, paper traded, sandbox tested and run live by simply changing a single line. Develop locally then deploy, iterate and share using the blankly platform.

The blankly package is designed to be extremely precise in both simulation and live trading. The engineering considerations for highly accurate simulation are described here

Getting started is easy - just pip install blankly and blankly init.

Check out our website and our docs.

Trade Stocks, Crypto, Futures, and Forex

from blankly import Alpaca, CoinbasePro

stocks = Alpaca()
crypto = CoinbasePro()
futures = BinanceFutures()

# Easily perform the same actions across exchanges & asset types
stocks.interface.market_order('AAPL', 'buy', 1)
crypto.interface.market_order('BTC-USD', 'buy', 1)
# Full futures feature set
futures.interface.get_hedge_mode()

Backtest your trades, events, websockets, and custom data

import blankly
"""
This example shows how backtest over tweets
"""

class TwitterBot(blankly.Model):
    def main(self, args):
        while self.has_data:
            self.backtester.value_account()
            self.sleep('1h')

    def event(self, type_: str, data: str):
        # Now check if it's a tweet about Tesla
        if 'tsla' in data.lower() or 'gme' in data.lower():
            # Buy, sell or evaluate your portfolio
            pass


if __name__ == "__main__":
    exchange = blankly.Alpaca()
    model = TwitterBot(exchange)

    # Add the tweets json here
    model.backtester.add_custom_events(blankly.data.JsonEventReader('./tweets.json'))
    # Now add some underlying prices at 1 month
    model.backtester.add_prices('TSLA', '1h', start_date='3/20/22', stop_date='4/15/22')

    # Backtest or run live
    print(model.backtest(args=None, initial_values={'USD': 10000}))

Quickstart

Installation

First install Blankly using pip. Blankly is hosted on PyPi.

$ pip install blankly

Next, just run:

$ blankly init

This will initialize your working directory.

The command will create the files keys.json, settings.json, backtest.json, blankly.json and an example script called bot.py.

If you don't want to use our init command, you can find the same files in the examples folder under settings.json and keys_example.json

From there, insert your API keys from your exchange into the generated keys.json file or take advantage of the CLI keys prompt.

More information can be found on our docs

Directory format

The working directory format should have at least these files:

project/
   |-bot.py
   |-keys.json
   |-settings.json

Additional Info

Make sure you're using a supported version of python. The module is currently tested on these versions:

Python 3.7
Python 3.8
Python 3.9
Python 3.10

For more info, and ways to do more advanced things, check out our getting started docs.
