Connect to exchanges, manage risk, execute strategies. ## Quick Start ```bash # Check exchange connectivity (no trades) python3 scripts/agent-trading-bot.py status # Paper trade (simulated) with a strategy python3 scripts/agent-trading-bot.py paper --strategy dca --pair BTC/USDT # Live trade (requires API keys configured) python3 scripts/agent-trading-bot.py trade --strategy dca --pair BTC/USDT --amount 100 # Risk dashboard — current positions, exposure, P&L python3 scripts/agent-trading-bot.py risk # Kill switch — close all positions immediately python3 scripts/agent-trading-bot.py kill ``` ## ⚠️ Safety First **This skill includes multiple safety layers:** 1. Paper trading mode by default — no real money until explicitly enabled 2. Maximum position size limits (configurable) 3. Stop-loss on every position (default: 5%) 4. Maximum drawdown circuit breaker (default: 10% of portfolio) 5. Kill switch to close all positions instantly 6. API keys never stored in skill files — environment variables only **The agent never trades without explicit user approval for live mode.** ## Commands ### `status` — Exchange Connectivity Check Tests API connections without trading: - Verifies API key validity - Checks account balances - Reports exchange status (maintenance, rate limits) - Shows available trading pairs ### `paper` — Paper Trading (Simulated) Runs strategy with fake money to test before going live: - Simulates order execution at market prices - Tracks P&L, win rate, Sharpe ratio - Logs every trade decision with reasoning - Options: `--strategy`, `--pair`, `--duration`, `--capital` ### `trade` — Live Trading Executes strategy with real funds: - Requires explicit `--live` flag (double confirmation) - All safety limits enforced - Every trade logged with timestamp, reasoning, and fills - Options: `--strategy`, `--pair`, `--amount`, `--live` ### `risk` — Risk Dashboard Real-time risk overview: - Open positions with unrealized P&L - Portfolio exposure by asset - Current drawdown vs maximum allowed - Margin utilization (for futures) - Daily/weekly/monthly P&L ### `kill` — Emergency Kill Switch Immediately closes all open positions: - Market sells all spot positions - Closes all futures positions - Cancels all pending orders - Logs everything - Requires confirmation unless `--force` flag ### `backtest` — Strategy Backtesting Test a strategy against historical data: - Options: `--strategy`, `--pair`, `--start`, `--end` - Reports: total return, max drawdown, Sharpe ratio, win rate ## Strategies ### Built-in Strategies | Strategy | Description | Risk Level | |----------|-------------|------------| | `dca` | Dollar-Cost Average — buy fixed amount at intervals | Low | | `grid` | Grid trading — buy low, sell high in a price range | Medium | | `momentum` | Trend following with moving average crossovers | Medium | | `funding` | Funding rate arbitrage (perpetual futures) | Medium | | `mean-revert` | Buy oversold, sell overbought (RSI-based) | High | See `references/strategies.md` for detailed strategy documentation. ### Custom Strategies Create a strategy file at `strategies/<name>.json`: ```json { "name": "my-strategy", "entry": { "indicator": "rsi", "condition": "below", "value": 30 }, "exit": { "indicator": "rsi", "condition": "above", "value": 70 }, "risk": { "stop_loss_pct": 3, "take_profit_pct": 9, "max_position_pct": 5 } } ``` ## Configuration Set exchange API keys via environment variables: ```bash export BINANCE_API_KEY="your-key" export BINANCE_API_SECRET="your-secret" export HYPERLIQUID_API_KEY="your-key" export HYPERLIQUID_API_SECRET="your-secret" ``` Risk limits in `~/.openclaw/trading-config.json`: ```json { "max_position_pct": 10, "max_drawdown_pct": 10, "default_stop_loss_pct": 5, "max_daily_trades": 20, "allowed_pairs": ["BTC/USDT", "ETH/USDT", "SOL/USDT"] } ```
