class Strategy

Bases: Actor

Strategy(config: StrategyConfig | None = None) The base class for all trading strategies.

This class allows traders to implement their own customized trading strategies. A trading strategy can configure its own order management system type, which determines how positions are handled by the ExecutionEngine.

Strategy OMS (Order Management System) types: : - UNSPECIFIED: No specific type has been configured, will therefore default to the native OMS type for each venue.
