+ ## Why Apache 2.0 rather than MIT
10
+
11
+ The same two clauses that settled it for the other Kamakura Quant Lab packages,
12
+ and both matter more for a library than for a command-line tool.
13
+
14
+ **Section 6 withholds trademark rights explicitly.** qate is published as the
15
+ library a reader can check a backtest against, and it is published on the claim
16
+ that it cannot reach an exchange. That claim is attached to the name, so the
17
+ licence grants the code and not the name.
18
+
19
+ **Section 4(b) requires a modified file to say it was modified.** A fork that
20
+ adds live connectivity — which is precisely what has been kept out of this
21
+ package — has to declare the file it changed. That is worth more here than the
22
+ brevity MIT would buy.

66
+
67
+ "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
68
+ form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
69
+ editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
70
+ represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
71
+ of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
72
+ separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
73
+ the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
74
+
75
+ "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including

94
+ this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,

99
+
100
+ 3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of

106
+ by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
107
+ Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
108
+ with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
109
+ institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
110
+ cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
111
+ or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
112
+ or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
113
+ granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
114
+ as of the date such litigation is filed.
115
+
116
+ 4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
117
+ Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
118
+ modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
119
+ meet the following conditions:

+
121
+ (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
122
+ Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
123
+
124
+ (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
125
+ stating that You changed the files; and
126
+
127
+ (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
128
+ that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
129
+ attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
130
+ excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
131
+ the Derivative Works; and
132
+
133
+ (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
134
+ distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
135
+ include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
136
+ within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
137
+ pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
138
+ of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
139
+ as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
140
+ documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
141
+ within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
142
+ wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
143
+ of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
144
+ do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
145
+ notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
146
+ or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
147
+ that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
148
+ as modifying the License.
149
+
150
+ You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
151
+ may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
152
+ for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
153
+ for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
154
+ reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
155
+ the conditions stated in this License.
156
+
157
+ 5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
158
+ any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
159
+ by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
160
+ this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
161
+ Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
162
+ the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
163
+ with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
164
+
165
+ 6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
166
+ names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
167
+ except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
168
+ origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
169
+
170
+ 7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
171
+ agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
172
+ Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
173
+ WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
174
+ implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
175
+ of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
176
+ PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
177
+ appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
178
+ risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
179
+
180
+ 8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
181
+ whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
182
+ unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
183
+ negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
184
+ liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
185
+ incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
186
+ result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
187
+ Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
188
+ work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
189
+ other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
190
+ has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
191
+
192
+ 9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
193
+ the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
194
+ and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
195
+ or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
196
+ License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
197
+ on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
198
+ of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
199
+ defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
200
+ incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
201
+ of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

34
+ # qate
35
+
36
+ A quantitative trading library, built to be backtested. It provides the event
37
+ loop, order lifecycle, strategy base class, charts and indicators, inventory and
38
+ PnL tracking, and a simulator that fills orders against recorded order books.
39
+
40
+ It reaches no exchange. That is a property of the install, not a promise in a
41
+ README: there is no HTTP client and no WebSocket client anywhere in its dependency
42
+ tree, no venue endpoint in its source, and no request-signing or account code. A
43
+ venue arrives only as a separate package that registers an adapter, and without
44
+ one there is no code here that could connect anywhere.
45
+
46
+ It also does not know where market data lives, or what format it is in. That
47
+ belongs to whoever owns the data. `qate` defines what an order book and a trade
48
+ *are*; something else reads them and hands them over.
49
+
50
+ ```bash
51
+ pip install kamakuraquantlab-qate
52
+ ```
53
+
54
+ For Kamakura Quant Lab data: [Komachi](https://github.com/kamakuraquantlab/Komachi)
55
+ downloads it, [Hase](https://github.com/kamakuraquantlab/Hase) derives features
56
+ from it, and [Enoshima](https://github.com/kamakuraquantlab/Enoshima) backtests
57
+ over it. This is the library Enoshima sits on.
58
+
59
+ It also has no notion of a deployment — no run directory, no host, no credential.
60
+ That is [qate-env](https://github.com/kamakuraquantlab/qate-env), which both
61
+ Enoshima and a live runner use to turn a directory of JSON into a run.
62
+
63
+ ## Layout
64
+
65
+ | Package | Holds |
66
+ |---|---|
67
+ | `qate.core` | Event loop, models, order lifecycle, and the interfaces a venue implements |
68
+ | `qate.trading` | Strategy base class and its config contract, gateways (live and simulated), the replay queue, bars and charts, indicators, inventory, PnL, the metric log, and the `Runtime` a live process runs in |
69
+ | `qate.strategy` | Two worked strategies, shipped to be read |
70
+ | `qate.exchange` | The adapter contract and registry. No venue lives here |
71
+ | `qate.util` | Date ranges, counters, encoding, replay-aware logging |
72
+
73
+ Run directories, credentials and the loader that reads them are not here; they are
74
+ `qate-env`. Nothing in this package names a path, a host or a key.
75
+
76
+ ## Two worked strategies
77
+
78
+ An abstract base class is a poor teacher, so `qate` ships two complete strategies:
79
+
80
+ | Strategy | Is | Shows |
81
+ |---|---|---|
82
+ | `qate.strategy.corvus` | Read a list of orders, place them, exit | The order lifecycle alone — place, reprice, cancel, fill, stop |
83
+ | `qate.strategy.pisces` | Cross-exchange arbitrage, maker one side and taker the other | A real idea, plus what startup, inventory and shutdown actually cost |
84
+
85
+ Read **corvus** first: it has no signal, no inventory and no schedule, so what is
86
+ left is the machinery every strategy needs and the part that is fiddly.
87
+
88
+ **pisces** is the same framework carrying a real trading idea, and its largest file
89
+ does no trading at all — it works out whether the strategy can start, because
90
+ exchanges have no sub-accounts and a strategy cannot assume the balance it left
91
+ behind. That ratio is the lesson, and it is what example strategies usually omit.
92
+
93
+ Neither is tuned and neither is a recommendation. Backtesting them needs nothing
94
+ but `qate`; trading them live needs an exchange adapter, which is a separate
95
+ install by design.
96
+
97
+ See [knowledge/05_corvus.md](knowledge/05_corvus.md) and
98
+ [knowledge/04_pisces.md](knowledge/04_pisces.md), and
99
+ [knowledge/03_writing_strategy.md](knowledge/03_writing_strategy.md) for the
100
+ `Variant` contract to write your own.
101
+
102
+ ## Market data comes from outside
103
+
104
+ There is no reader here, deliberately. Reading recorded data means knowing a
105
+ storage layout, and a layout has an owner — for Kamakura Quant Lab data that is
106
+ `komachi`, which writes it. A trading library that also knew the layout would be a
107
+ second implementation of one question, and the day the two disagree is the day a
108
+ backtest silently skips a date the downloader thinks it has.
109
+
110
+ So a replayer hands `qate` events. `Enoshima` is the one that joins the two: it
111
+ asks `komachi` where the files are, reads them, and produces
112
+ `qate.core.model.OrderBook` and `Trade`. Anything that can produce those objects
113
+ works the same way.
114
+
115
+ `qate.util.dt_range.DtRange` is the shared vocabulary for *when*: it yields the ISO
116
+ date partition keys the bronze layer is laid out by, so a range maps onto files
117
+ with no conversion.
118
+
119
+ ## Running a backtest
120
+
121
+ A replay is single-threaded on purpose: the events already exist, in order, and
122
+ two runs of the same data must give the same result. One queue in place of the
123
+ live ones collapses the threading into a single loop, so the same `Trader`,
124
+ `Strategy` and gateway code runs unchanged:
125
+
126
+ ```python
127
+ from qate.trading.gateways import SimulatorGateway
128
+ from qate.trading.replay import ReplayQueue
129
+ from qate.trading.trader import Trader
130
+
131
+ # events: an iterable of (EventType, OrderBook | Trade), in timestamp order.
132
+ # Where they come from is not qate's business — see above.
133
+
134
+ gateway = SimulatorGateway(ExchangeName.GMO, slippage_rate=0.0) # fills in place
135
+
136
+ trader = Trader(strategy, ReplayQueue(events)) # market data + own events
137
+ trader.add_gateway(gateway)
138
+ trader.register(EventType.MARKET_ORDER_BOOK, gateway.handle_order_book)
139
+ trader.run() # returns when the data ends
140
+ ```
141
+
142
+ Two behaviours are worth knowing before reading a result:
143
+
144
+ - **An order fills on the book after the one it was created on.** The simulator
145
+ matches against the next snapshot, never the one the strategy was looking at
146
+ when it decided. That is the latency model, and it is why a strategy cannot
147
+ trade on information it could not have had.
148
+ - **`Trader` runs a warmup pass first**, draining events into
149
+ `Strategy.warmup_*` until the strategy reports `is_ready`. Indicators get their
150
+ history before anything trades, and the warmup events are not traded on.
151
+
152
+ `tests/test_backtest_end_to_end.py` is this whole path in one file, from parquet
153
+ on disk to results on disk, and is the shortest complete example.
154
+
155
+ ## Reporting a run as it happens
156
+
157
+ A `MetricLog` records everything for later; a `Reporter` is the other direction —
158
+ the few things a person wants to see while a strategy runs.
159
+
160
+ ```python
161
+ from qate.trading.reporter import Reporter
162
+ from qate.trading.runtime import Runtime
163
+
164
+ class Printer(Reporter):
165
+ def on_order(self, order_response):
166
+ print(order_response.summary)
167
+
168
+ runtime = Runtime(strategy) # the loop a live run sits in: conns, gateways, metrics
169
+ runtime.add_reporter(Printer())
170
+ ```
171
+
172
+ One method per kind of outcome — `on_order`, `on_pnl_update`, `on_summary`,
173
+ `on_exception`, `on_message`, `on_start`, `on_stop` — and every one is a no-op by
174
+ default, so implement what you care about. Several reporters can be added and each
175
+ sees everything. A reporter that raises is logged and ignored: a run does not
176
+ depend on anyone being told.
177
+
178
+ No implementation ships here — a destination is a dependency, and a chat client in
179
+ this package would be one nobody backtesting asked for. A live runner adds its own.
180
+
181
+ ## What a run records
182
+
183
+ A local, append-only log of metric records, and nothing else:
184
+
185
+ ```python
186
+ from qate.trading.metrics import MetricLog, RotationInterval
187
+
188
+ log = MetricLog(RotationInterval.FIVE_MINUTE, 256, "Metrics")
189
+ ```
190
+
191
+ A running strategy appends to a file and never waits on a network; a finished run
192
+ is self-contained. Reading it back is `read_metrics_dir`.
193
+
194
+ Shipping that log anywhere — InfluxDB for charting, parquet for analysis — is a
195
+ later and separate step belonging to whoever wants it. `qate` has no storage layer
196
+ and no database client, which is why a run cannot fail because a backend is down.
197
+ Enoshima is the worked example of the other half.
198
+
199
+ ## Supplying an exchange
200
+
201
+ Live trading needs an adapter package. It declares an entry point and registers
202
+ one `ExchangeAdapter` per venue:
203
+
204
+ ```toml
205
+ [project.entry-points."qate.exchanges"]
206
+ my_venues = "my_venues:register"
207
+ ```
208
+
209
+ ```python
210
+ from qate.core.model import ExchangeName
211
+ from qate.exchange import ExchangeAdapter, register
212
+
213
+ def register_all():
214
+ register(ExchangeAdapter(
215
+ exchange_name=ExchangeName.GMO,
216
+ create_api=GMOApi,
217
+ create_gateway=GMOGateway,
218
+ create_public_connection=GMOPublicConn,
219
+ create_private_connection=GMOPrivateConn,
220
+ ))
221
+ ```
222
+
223
+ Every hook is optional, and a venue is resolved lazily on first use. Asking for
224
+ one that is not installed raises `UnknownExchange` naming what is; asking an
225
+ adapter for something it does not provide raises
226
+ `UnsupportedExchangeCapability` naming the hook. Set `QATE_EXCHANGE_PLUGINS` to
227
+ load an adapter from a checkout that is not installed.
228
+
229
+ ### What a fill costs
230
+
231
+ An adapter carries what its venues charge, alongside the hooks — a fee schedule is
232
+ venue knowledge in exactly the way an endpoint is, and `qate` ships the shape of a rate
233
+ and no rate:
234
+
235
+ ```python
236
+ register(ExchangeAdapter(
237
+ exchange_name=ExchangeName.GMO,
238
+ create_api=GMOApi,
239
+ ...
240
+ fee_rates={Symbol.BTC_SPOT: FeeSchedule(maker=-0.0001, taker=0.0005)},
241
+ ))
242
+ ```
243
+
244
+ Fractions of notional, and **a negative maker rate is a rebate** — the fee comes back
245
+ negative and a `PnlUpdate` that subtracts it is correct.
246
+
247
+ `factory.get_fee_rate(market)` is how a run asks, and it is the one call in `factory`
248
+ that builds nothing: it reads a number off an adapter, so a replay may use it. A
249
+ `PnlTracker` resolves a rate per market, once, at setup:
250
+
251
+ ```python
252
+ tracker = PnlTracker()
253
+ tracker.register_fee(maker_market) # bitbank, say
254
+ tracker.register_fee(taker_market) # and GMO
255
+ ```
256
+
257
+ One tracker covers several markets deliberately — pisces shares one between a maker
258
+ venue and a taker venue, which is what makes its round-trip PnL a round trip — so the
259
+ rate is per market and a fill is costed with the rate of the market it happened on. An
260
+ `Inventory` registers its own market, so a strategy built the usual way needs none of
261
+ this.
262
+
263
+ A market no rate was found for is costed at **zero**, with one warning: a venue whose
264
+ fees a run does not know is a configuration gap, not a reason to kill a live strategy
265
+ mid-position. It does mean a run with no adapter installed reports no fees at all,
266
+ which flatters any strategy whose edge is thinner than its costs. Rates were hardcoded
267
+ here once, and the price of their being right is that the package that speaks to a
268
+ venue is the one that has to say.
269
+
270
+ ## Settings
271
+
272
+ There are none. `qate` reads no configuration file, consults no environment
273
+ variable, and holds no default path — a `Strategy` is handed its config object and
274
+ its params dict by whatever constructed it, and that is the whole of it.
275
+
276
+ Run directories, credential files and the loader that turns them into those objects
277
+ are [qate-env](https://github.com/kamakuraquantlab/qate-env). A backtest therefore
278
+ asks for no credential because there is nothing here that could ask: an
279
+ unauthenticated fallback is not a thing this package can express.
280
+
281
+ There is no market-data setting either. `qate` does not read market data, so it has
282
+ no opinion about where it is.
