Trading terminal

Trading terminal (trade-term) is a commercial tool for trading on crypto exchanges, with a web interface: live charts with indicators, a paper (simulated) account, backtesting, and Pulse — its own scripting language for writing indicators and strategies.

<note important> Technical preview. Trading terminal is proprietary commercial software, used under a subscription licence — not free or open-source software, and not under the GPL. </note>

Install

sudo apt install trade-term

This also installs trade-term-pulse (the Pulse standard library). The optional handbook:

sudo apt install trade-term-handbook

Open the web interface at https://<your-host>:8444 and sign in. A valid subscription licence for the feature “trade-term” is required to operate; licences are handled by stratum-license (hardware ID, licence request, signed licence file).

What it does

  • Live charts — candlesticks from public exchange data (through CCXT), with built-in indicators (EMA, RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands).
  • Paper trading — a simulated account with market orders, fees and slippage; no real orders.
  • Backtesting — run strategies over historical candles with return, drawdown and trade statistics.
  • Pulse — a small, safe Pine-like language for your own indicators and strategies, with a live editor (syntax highlighting, as-you-type checking, an inputs form) and a standard library of ready-made scripts.
  • Exchange API keys — stored encrypted on the server; used only with trade-only keys.
  • Live trading — place real orders under strict safeguards: per-order and daily limits, an allowed-symbols list, a two-step confirmation and a kill-switch. Off by default.
  • Trading sessions — attach a Pulse strategy to a market and let it trade automatically on each closed candle; several sessions run at once, in paper or live mode.

Packages

  • trade-term — the application (non-free).
  • trade-term-pulse — the Pulse standard library (required dependency).
  • trade-term-handbook — the user guide and the Pulse language reference, shown as a Handbook tab inside the web interface (optional).

Handbook and design

The handbook (package trade-term-handbook) covers the web interface and the Pulse language, with a complete function reference and worked examples. See also the design notes.
