# @senpi/trading-recipe

[![npm version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/@senpi/trading-recipe.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@senpi/trading-recipe)

Event-driven automated trading plugin for OpenClaw. Orchestrates scanners, LLM-based trade decisions, and a DSL trailing stop-loss exit engine.

## Prerequisites

- **OpenClaw** >= 2026.2.0
- **Node** >= 22
- **Senpi API key** (for live trading)

## Install

```bash
openclaw plugins install @senpi/trading-recipe
```

## Configure

Add the plugin to your OpenClaw config (e.g. `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json` or via `openclaw config set`). Use the plugin **id** `trading-recipe` as the key:

```json
{
  "plugins": {
    "entries": {
      "trading-recipe": {
        "enabled": true,
        "config": {
          "stateDir": "~/.openclaw/senpi-state",
          "apiKey": "YOUR_SENPI_API_KEY"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
```

## Notifications

- **Strategy-level:** Set `notifications.telegram_chat_id` in your strategy YAML to receive alerts (e.g. open/close, decision errors, scanner watchdog). The plugin sends messages via the OpenClaw gateway `message` tool (`action: send`, `target: telegram:<chatId>`).
- **Lifecycle (plugin start/stop):** Set `SENPI_LIFECYCLE_TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID` in the **gateway** environment (e.g. in Docker: add to `docker-compose` and `.env`) to receive "Senpi started. Strategy running." when the plugin service starts and "Senpi shutting down." when it stops. Requires `OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN` (and optionally `OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_URL`) in the same environment.

## Quickstart

1. Copy a minimal recipe template and set your wallet:
   ```bash
   cp $(openclaw plugins path @senpi/trading-recipe)/examples/strategies/minimal.yaml ~/my-recipe.yaml
   # Edit my-recipe.yaml: replace ${WALLET_ADDRESS} or set WALLET_ADDRESS in env
   ```

2. Set environment variables (e.g. `.env`): `SENPI_API_KEY`, `WALLET_ADDRESS`.

3. Load the recipe (hot-loads; no gateway restart):
   ```bash
   openclaw senpi trading-recipe create -p ~/my-recipe.yaml
   ```

4. List recipes:
   ```bash
   openclaw senpi trading-recipe list
   ```

5. Watch gateway logs for scanner runs and signal processing.

## Strategy templates

| File | Style | Scanners | Use case |
|------|-------|----------|----------|
| minimal.yaml | Watch-only | emerging_movers | Verify setup; no positions |
| wolf.yaml | Aggressive | emerging_movers | Early entry on FIRST_JUMP |
| viper.yaml | Moderate | prescreener + momentum | Candle-based breakouts |
| fox.yaml | OI-driven | prescreener + oi_tracker | OI-driven entries |
| dsl-showcase.yaml | DSL reference | emerging_movers | Annotated exit config |

Templates live under `examples/strategies/` in the package. See [examples/strategies/README.md](examples/strategies/README.md).
