Technical Architecture

Factory Canister (factory)

The Factory Canister is the entry point for the entire quantitative trading system, developed in Rust. It is responsible for:

  • Managing strategy deployments: Deploys new trading strategies.

  • Collecting deployment fees: Charges a fee of 1 ICP per deployment.

  • Maintaining a registry: Keeps a record of all deployed strategies.

Strategy Common Library

The Strategy Common Library is a shared library that provides common functionalities and type definitions for all strategy implementations, ensuring consistency and maintainability across the system.

Dollar Cost Averaging Strategy

The DCA Strategy Canister implements the dollar-cost averaging method, a strategy that involves continuously investing a fixed amount at regular time intervals.

Value Averaging Strategy

The Value Averaging Strategy Canister implements a value averaging strategy, which involves periodic investments based on a predetermined target growth path for the account’s value.

Fixed Balance Strategy

The Fixed Balance Strategy Canister maintains a constant account balance or total asset value by periodically adjusting fund allocations.

Limit Orders Strategy

The Limit Orders Strategy Canister implements a limit order strategy, enabling users to set specific prices for buying or selling assets.

Self-Hedging Strategy

The Self-Hedging Strategy Canister implements a self-hedging strategy, where the system acts as both buyer and seller to increase the trading volume of a specific asset.

Common Interface for Strategy Canisters

Each Strategy Canister implements a basic set of functionalities, including:

  • Initialization

  • Start/Pause Execution

  • Executing Strategy Logic

  • Recording Execution History

  • Managing Cycles

Additionally, each canister incorporates unique trading logic tailored to its specific strategy type.
