ta4j Strategy Parser

ta4j Strategy Parser is a library to parse Technical Analysis strategies into ta4j using antlr4.

Strategies

Strategies are defined as combination of GOLONG and GOSHORT combined signals.

A signal could be a combination of indicator expressions and logical expressions.

(((DEMA[5] >= SMA[45]) OR ((TEMA[30] <= 1.3) OR ((DEMA[74] >= 0.3637) OR (CCI[30] <= 0.5)))) AND ((TEMA[30] <= 1.3) OR ((DEMA[74] >= 0.3637) OR (CCI[30] <= 0.5)))) [GO_LONG] 
; 
((TEMA[30] <= 1.3) OR ((DEMA[74] >= 0.3637) OR (CCII[30] <= 0.5))) [GO_SHORT]",

Logical expressions must be inserted between parentheses

• correct

((DEMA[74] >= 0.3637) OR (CCII[30] <= 0.5))

• incorrect

(DEMA[74] >= 0.3637) OR (CCII[30] <= 0.5)

Use

import org.ambulando.strategy.ta4j.parser.*;
...     String input = "(RSI[5] <= 7.5) [GOLONG] ; (CCII[5] >= 7.9) [GOSHORT]";     try     {       BarSeries barSeries = getBarSeries();       Strategy strategy = parser.parse(input, barSeries);     }     catch (ParserException e)     {       List<ParserError> errors = e.getErrors();       //handle errors     }     ...

Operators

• Logic operators between signals

• mathematical operators between indicators:

Indicators

Use of the indicator can be found in ta4j docs At now, the following indicators are recognized by the parser:

|INDICATOR |USE| |----------|---| | [Close Price]()|CPRICE| | [Volume]()|VOLUME| | Simple Moving Average - SMA|SMA[timeframe:int]| | Double Exponential Moving Average - DEMA|DEMA[timeframe:int]| | Exponential Moving Average - EMA|EMA[timeframe:int]| | Triple Exponential Moving Average – TEMA|TEMA[timeframe:int]| | Weighted Moving Average WMA|WMA[timeframe:int]| | William's R - WILLIAMS|WILLIAMS[timeframe:int]| | Commodity Channel Index - CCI|CCI[timeframe:int]| | Relative Strength Index - RSI|RSI[timeframe:int]| | Ulcer Index - UI|UI[timeframe:int]| | Average Directional Index - ADX|ADX[timeframe:int]| | Hull Moving Average HMA|HMA[timeframe:int]| | Zero-Lag Exponential Moving Average - ZLEMA|ZLEMA[timeframe:int]| | Kaufman's Adaptive Moving Average - KAMA|KAMA[timeframe:int,timeframe:int,timeframe:int]| | Moving Average Convergence Divergence - MACD|MACD[timeframe:int,timeframe:int]| | Percentage price oscillator - PPO|PPO[timeframe:int,timeframe:int]| | Volume-Weighted Average Price - VWAP|VWAP[timeframe:int]| | Chaikin Oscillator - COI|COI[timeframe:int,timeframe:int]| | Accumulation Distribution - ADI|ADI| | Intraday Intensity Index - III|III| | Chaikin Money Flow - CMF|CMF[timeframe:int]| | Moving Volume Weighted Average Price - MVWAP|MVWAP[timeframe:int,timeframe:int]| | Negative Volume Index - NVI|NVI| | Rate Of Change of Volume - ROCV|ROCV[timeframe:int]| | Positive Volume Index - PVI|PVI| | On Balance Volume - OBV|OBV|
