This keyword will fetch a particular instrument. It is generally found within another keyword and is one of the most versatile keywords of Tradetron. If this keyword is not entered correctly or is left blank, the strategy may not be able to execute. This keyword has five distinct inputs a user can make:

Exchange
Underlying
Expiry
Option type
Strike Price

Exchange:

This is the first level of segregation when you can choose what instrument you need. Tradetron offers NSE, NFO, MCX and CDS for Indian stock markets. We also offer BITBNS for crypto, FX for forex and NASDAQ-eq. One thumb rule to follow here is that, if you need to do anything related to cash market or stock equity, you can select NSE. If you list needs to take entries based on cash segment you can select NSE too. NFO can be selected if you need to do anything related to futures and options.

Underlying:

Once you select an exchange you get the flexibility to select an instrument for the same too. Here you can either select one instrument or a list of instruments. If you are selecting an equity instrument, these are the only two field that need to be filled and the other fields will automatically get disabled for you. If you are selecting an Index like Nifty 50 or Nifty Bank you can do so by selecting NFO, and then the respective index. This will fetch the spot price of that index.

Expiry:

For derivative instruments, like futures and options which have expiries, selecting these field will enable the Tradetron engine to check conditions in the relevant expiry. When selecting Nifty 50 and Nifty Bank, when you select 'Current month expiry' you will fetch the futures of the same. The same is true for MCX and CDX. In order to streamline the selection of expiry, one has the option of selecting the current week or current month expiry. Upon clicking on the same the +n th expiry dialog box opens where 0 is the current week/ month expiry, 1 is the next week/ month, 2 is the week/ month after that.

Option type:
This has two inputs, CE or PE which you can select according to what is needed.

Strike Price:

This is used to fetch the strike price of the instrument required. One can directly select a strike price or allow the same to be based on a variable, in this case ATM. When you select ATM, the at the money strike is always selected based on the current month futures of the instrument. Upon clicking on ATM, you get the option to select +/- n Steps from ATM. Here you can select a positive or negative integer to shift a strike x steps from the ATM strike. Thus +2 will fetch ATM +2 strike and so on.

Leg TSL and Leg Exit to be used only if the entry legs will trade once, it will not work for reentries. Thus you need to make sure you have added a relevant keyword to logic to avoid a re-entry to prevent the strategy from going into a loop if the keywords are used in set exit. Our suggestion would be to use it in repair once.

Using Tradetron you can now build a Trailing Stoploss on each leg of your strategy. In order to add this keyword follow the steps shared below:

Add the entry conditions and positions in your strategy

Search for keyword "Leg SL trail" in your Universal exit, repair once, set exit.

Click on the keyword and select the name of the instrument and input the location of the same

Select your TSL type:

SL - Points will calculate all values in points. (not rupees)

SL - Percentage will calculate all values in %

This is the start point of your Trail logic.

Example: If you bought a PUT at 100 and select 20 points in "stoploss", the SL will be 80. If the price goes below 80, it will exit the leg.

Now add your "Increase profit by"

This is the minimum move in your favour before which the SL will be modified from the stoploss point.
Example: If you select 5 points.Once the put goes to 105, your SL shift will be triggered.

Now add your "Increase TSL by"

The TSL will move by the points or percentage indicated here.

Example: If you select 5 points.Once the put goes to 105, your SL shift from 80 to 85 and so on.

Leg SL trail to be used only if the entry legs will trade once, it will not work for reentries. Thus you need to make sure you have added a relevant keyword to logic to avoid a re-entry to prevent the strategy from going into a loop if the keywords are used in set exit. Our suggestion would be to use it in a repair once.

This is what your final condition will look like, no need to add comparators, just Leg SL trail condition.

TSL - Percentage will calculate all values in %

This is the start point of your TSL.

Example: If you bought a PUT at 100 and select 20 points in "activate at", the TSL will begin only when your PUT trades above 120.

This will exit your position if the price moves against you for more than the selected % or points from the activate at level.

Example: If your bought PUT's TSL is activated at 20 points the LTP begins to move below 110, "Lock profit at" will exit at 10 points or 10% in profit.

Now add your "Increase profit by"

This is the minimum move in your favour before which the TSL will be modified.

Now add your "Increase TSL by"

The TSL will move by the points or percentage indicated here.

This keyword is used to perform a mathematical operation on two inputs/keywords. The output of math operation keyword is a float.

It can also be used under the round keyword to get a rounded output rather than a decimal value.

In the example shared above, we are adding 5 and 15, so the output will be 20

This keyword is used to perform a mathematical operation on two series data types. Since we are performing a mathematical operation on two series values, you need to use Position keyword here and select math series operation in the same.

In the example shared above, we are taking the difference between the 20 period EMA of daily Nifty 50 spot candles and the 25 period SMA of daily Nifty 50 spot candles.

This keyword returns the maximum value of the two inputs.

The above condition will return the maximum value, in this case, 1500

You can also input different series like CLOSE, EMA and find the maximum of the two. Make sure to use the position keyword while selecting series as input

This keyword will fetch the maximum loss achieved by the strategy during one run counter of the same. Max loss is a strategy level keyword and will take into account the total realized and unrealized loss of all positions taken. Max loss should ideally be multiplied with the multiplier as shown in the image below in the Universal exit of a strategy.

In the example below it is checking that if max loss is greater than 1000 then condition will be true

This keyword will return the instrument with the maximum open interest at that instant. You can input the underlying instrument, expiry and option type. Your request will be processed and a response will be fetched. At the moment it is only available for indices.

The above image shows how to fetch the instrument with max OI for Nifty Bank, current month put options.

This keyword will return a numerical value of the strike of the instrument with the maximum open interest at that instant. You can input the underlying instrument, expiry and option type. Your request will be processed and a numeric response will be fetched. At the moment it is only available for indices. This keyword can also be used in the strike fx of the position builder.

The above image shows how to fetch the maximum OI strike for Nifty 50, current week call options.

This keyword will fetch the maximum profit achieved by the strategy during one run counter of the same. Max profit is a strategy level keyword and will take into account the total realized and unrealized profit of all positions taken. It is suggested to use Max profit to define a custom trailing stop loss on a strategy. Max profit should ideally be multiplied with the multiplier as shown in the image below in the Universal exit of a strategy.

Another utility for this keyword is to build a custom trailing stoploss logic. This is very similar to the TSL feature in the advance settings however certain customizations in the same are not possible. Using the Max profit keyword one can customize the levels at which TSL gets triggered.

In the example share above, the condition on line one checks if the max profit of the strategy is greater than 2500. This is the activation price of the TSL mechanism. One can thus select any number at which he wants his TSL to get activated.

Line number two checks the difference between the values of the max profit and the PNL of the strategy. If the difference between the two is greater than 1000, the universal exit will be activated. This number can also be modified based on the logic of a strategy. Thus if you need the TSL to be very sensitive the number can be a smaller number like 200 or 500. If you need the TSL to be more accommodative, you can select a larger number.

We are multiplying the two by multiplier to scale the same up or down as per the position sizing selected.

This keyword returns the monthly futures expiry date of the instrument as a string in the format YYYY-MM-DD

This keyword can be used in condition builder as well as in expiry FX of the position builder

Multiplier is the keyword used when we want to multiply any value in the strategy as per the multiplier selected during that deployment.

Useful, if the user wants to deploy using different multiplier like 2X,5X etc

If deployment is under 2X, multiplier will return 2

This keyword is used to multiply a value to the entire series /array of the selected instrument. This keyword is used under the position keyword

The above example will multiply 10 to all the close values of the NIFTY 50 series

This keyword will return Net Delta of open positions of the selected underlying for the strategy

If a position is long CE = Net Delta of CE position will be positive

If a position is short CE = Net Delta of CE position will be negative

If a position is long PE = Net Delta of PE position will be negative

If a position is short PE = Net Delta of PE position will be positive

Net delta will give the summation of all open positions (quantity) multiplied by their respective delta for that underlying

This keyword will return Net Gamma of open positions of the selected underlying for the strategy

It returns the Net quantity/Open Quantity of that particular instrument in that strategy. Please note that this keyword will give you Net Quantity of that instrument in whole strategy not at Set Level.

The above example will return the net quantity of ADANIENT in the strategy.

The above example will return the net quantity of the instrument traded in leg 1 of set 1 in the entry which has NIFTY50 as underlying. It will take that particular leg reference and fetch what is the instrument being Traded. Following that it will scan full strategy and return Net Quantity of that particular instrument.

Suppose 1 lot NIFTY 17000CE is sold in entry leg 1, it will return -50

If the same traded instrument is squared off it in some other condition, it will return 0

This keyword returns the Net Theta of open positions in selected underlying for strategy.

Eg. Net Theta('NIFTY 50') as float

This keyword will return Net Vega of open positions of the selected underlying for the strategy

Next Trading Day returns the next trading date in string format. It cannot be equated with any number. The keyword you are comparing with should also return a string only

It will return the current date as a string in format YYYY-MM-DD

It can be used as follows:

This will check if tomorrow is the next trading day. If yes the conditions will be true.

The above logic can be used in case of situations when there is a holday on a day before expiry. The above logic will help you ensure your tade happens one day previos to the expiry date accounting for the holiday.

This keyword returns current date and time as an integer as YYYYMMDDHHMM.

This keyword is the simplest of all and just returns the number that is input by the user.

This keyword can be used to define or compare with a value output of an existing keyword

In the above condition, the number keyword is used to check if the PNL keyword is more than 500.

This keyword returns the value of the On Balance Volume of the selected Instrument. This keyword is to be used under the position keyword

You can plot Choppiness Index on any candle of an instrument, like in the above example, you can also plot OBV of previous (-1) day candle of Nifty 50 futures

This keyword can be used for all series based technical indicator's. It will fetch the value of a particular candle in series for two independent instruments and find the difference of the same values. You can thus check the difference in premium of two strikes. This difference could be either positive or negative.

This keyword is nested within most series or technical indicators. In order to OHLC spread, you need to select position keyword and then select the series/indictor for which you need to find the spread between the two instruments. Post that click on the indicator to select keyword 'OHLC Spread'.

As shown in the above example, you can find the previous 5 minute open of the current week ATM CE and PE for the weekly option for Nifty Bank and find the difference in the same values.

This keyword can be used for all series based technical indicator's. It will fetch the value of a particular candle in series for two different instruments and sum it up. You can thus check the combined premium of two strikes.

This keyword is nested within most series or technical indicators. In order to OHLC sum, you need to select position keyword and then select the series/indictor for which you need to find the spread between the two instruments. Post that click on the indicator to select keyword 'OHLC Sum'.

As shown in the above example, you can find the previous 5 minute close of the current week ATM CE and PE for the weekly option for Nifty 50 and sum it up.

This keyword returns the Open value of the selected Instrument. This keyword is to be used under the position keyword

The above keyword will return previous day Open price of ABFRL

This keyword will look at all the open positions within the strategy that you have defined and return an absolute integer number. The values it will fetch here will be Boolean values. Thus this keyword can only check if there is an open position for an instrument. If there is an open position then it will fetch 1, else 0.

Assume you trade one lot of RELIANCE futures. When you enter into RELIANCE, the Open Positions keyword will return number 1 as you have 1 open position. Assume you square off the position in RELIANCE futures, the Open Positions keyword will return number 0.

Through the above keywords, one can check if there are no Open Positions for RELIANCE

Through the above keywords, one can check if there are Open Positions for RELIANCE

The Open Positions keyword should not be used restrict the number of positions taken in a strategy as shown below.

To understand the rationale behind the same, take this example:

A strategy took an entry in RELIANCE futures and then exited from the same. Post that it takes a re entry in RELIANCE futures. In this case logically speaking, the number of open positions returned should be 1. However the Tradetron engine will not consider the open positions as 1 and will return 3 as it detects three unique entries.

This keyword will help you fetch the Open, High, Low, Close or Volume of any particular timeframe. It is important to execute the ORB keyword only after the mentioned time has passed. Thus it is suggested to add a time condition along with the ORB condition as an AND.

In the example share above, we are looking for the condition where the LTP of Nifty 50 spot is greater than the high between 915 AM and 930AM. We are also looking for the same to execute only if its 930AM.

You can have a look at this video for more details.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-TVjzmh9NpQ

This keyword will return a numerical value of the PUT-CALL ratio based on open interest at that instant. You can input the underlying instrument and expiry. Your request will be processed and a numeric response will be fetched. At the moment it is only available for indices.

The above image shows how to build a condition to check the PCR Nifty 50, current week options and take a trade if the same is greater than or equal to 1.25.

This keyword returns the Percentage Price Oscillator of any period of any series of the selected Instrument. This keyword is to be used under the position keyword

You can plot Percentage Price Oscillator on any series, like close in the above example, you can also plot EMA of RSI, OPEN etc

This keyword will return the Percentile value of the selected value from series of the particular instrument. Percentile Rank keyword need not be used under the position keyword

This keyword has 3 inputs, one is to select the series, another one to select the period which is the no. of previous values to consider or the sample and the final to input the value whose percentile needs to be found

The above condition will return the Percentile Rank of 250 value of the ITC close series, considering the sample data of the past 20 candles

Eg- Suppose 250 is the highest close value of ITC in past 20 candles, then it will return 100, as it is 100 percentile

This keyword returns the Pivot Points value of the selected Instrument for the selected timeframe. This keyword is to be used under the position keyword

In this keyword, you can select from 3 types of pivot points

Standard
Fibonacci
Camarilla

The above keyword will return the Fibonacci pivot value of NIFTY 50 based on day before yesterdays daily candle, if you want to find pivot for current day, use position 0 and it will automatically create pivot based on previous day's data

The general rule of thumb is to calculate pivots based on the previous day daily timeframe for the current day

For eg, If you are trading in 15min timeframe, you will still use pivots based on the daily timeframe

A pivot point is a technical analysis indicator, or calculations, used to determine the overall trend of the market over different time frames.

Read more about Pivot Points here - https://www.investopedia.com/terms/p/pivotpoint.asp

This keyword will return profit/loss of the strategy for that counter

Generally used when the user wants to exit the strategy when the target/stop loss amount reached for that particular strategy as a whole if we keep the condition in the universal exit.

PNL is a strategy level keyword, generally kept in universal exit, even if kept in set exit, it will still return the overall profit/loss combining all the sets.

This keyword will reset only after universal exit.

Please click on this link for more and examples - https://qna.tradetron.tech/t/how-to-use-pnl-keyword/635

The above code if put in universal exit, will exit the strategy if it makes 500 Rs + profit

It is also advisable to use PNL keyword with multiplier to make sure that the targets/ stoploss is scaled up based on the multiplier selected.

This keyword will return profit/loss of the strategy for that counter for only the instrument that has been selected here.

Generally used when the user wants to exit the strategy when the target/stop loss amount reached for that particular strategy as a whole if we keep the condition in the set exit.

PNL is a strategy level keyword, generally kept in set exit, to exit all open positions of the underlying instrument while keeping all other positions untouched.

This keyword will reset only after universal exit.

In the example share above, the system will trigger and exit when the PNL of all HDFCBANK instruments are greater than or equal to 500.

Position keyword one of the most fundamental and most used keyword in Tradetron

Position keyword is used to pinpoint and get the data of a particular position from a series

Most technical indicators, OHLCV data is retrieved using this position keyword

Position keyword has 2 inputs, one is to select the data series like close, EMA, SMA etc and the next is to pinpoint the position to retrieve the data

Selecting -1 indicates the previous candle. -2 indicates previous to the previous candle and so on.

Selecting 0 indicates the current candle, so basically, position( close)0 is the same as LTP

Please note position input cannot be positive, it has to be 0 or a negative number

In the above example, the position keyword is used to get the previous day close value of the Nifty 50 futures chart

Pls read this blog for more clarity - https://blog.tradetron.tech/node/21

The position detail keyword is one of the most important and versatile keywords of Tradetron. The same keyword can be used in various ways to control what your strategy does in a very precise ways. This keyword is a strategy level keyword which means that is is independent of sets and will take into consideration, all the positions within a strategy. In most keywords, a users is typically adds an input and hence receives an output in the form of the result. However while using position detail, one must first think of what is the output that the user wants to achieve and then built and input in position detail for the same.

Position detail has 4 inputs namely Condition type, Transaction Type, Instrument type and Underlying and 3 outputs Value, Quantity and Count of which anyone can be selected at a time

In order to explain the same consider the following cases:

Assume you buy one lot of Nifty 50 Monthly CE that has a lot size of 50.

Now if you use the position detail keyword with these settings, it will fetch number +50 as the system is looking at all the conditions in the strategy, all transactions and all instrument types.

However if I modify the filter to check for only entries and sell type transactions, the position detail keyword will return 0. This is because even though there is an entry here, there is no Sell in the strategy thus fetching 0.

Similarly if I modify the same keyword to look for entries of Buy transactions but the instrument is selected as PE, it will again return 0. This is because no PE has been currently traded in the strategy.

Now assume that the same Nifty 50 Monthly CE has been squared off by the repair once condition.

Now if I add the same keyword, with the settings shown above, it will fetch 0. This is because we are looking for the positions of 'all' condition types in the strategy. Thus the entry condition will fetch number +50(since we went long) and the repair condition will fetch -50(since we went short). When we look for the summation of all the condition types, we get (+50) + (-50) thus returning 0

If I select repair once as the condition type and keep the transaction and instrument type as all, the same keyword will return -50 and there was a short position taken in the repair once trade.

Using the above cases we are trying to point to the fact that position detail can be used effectively to check if certain positions are taken or not taken. Based on the same you get granular logical control over the positions being taken by your strategy at every point.

Position detail in a strategy level keyword and not a set level keyword. No matter which set you use it in, it will return the output based on all the sets ie. the strategy.

Let us understand the use of position detail with an example

#Example 1

Suppose you have 2 sets in a NIFTY 50 straddle strategy where each set is selling a straddle and you want that only 1 set must be active at a time, then you can use the below position detail configuration in the entry of both the sets

In the above configuration, we are basically checking the net quantity of the strategy whether it is 0 or not. If it is 0, that means no set is active and anyone set can be active.

Suppose set 2 enters then position detail will return -100 as it is CE and PE sell each 1 lot so net quantity is -100. Now after some time set exit happens and positions are squared off then the net quantity becomes 0.

#Example 2

Suppose you have a 1 set strategy where you are building a long straddle. Now you wish that set 1 enters only once per day.

So in set 1 since it is buying CE and PE, we will use the below configuration in set 1 entry conditions

In this arrangement, we are selecting Entry and B because when buy legs are traded for the first time, Position detail keyword will return 0 as no trades have occurred and thus it will allow first entry. Now as soon as set 1 entry happens the position detail keyword will return 100 as ENTRY, B, ALL, Quantity = 100, thus condition will not be satisfied for the second entry, preventing re-entry for set 1

The above keyword will scan only the Entry blocks of both sets and return the Buy quantity

#Example 3

Suppose you are trading a list of stocks and want to limit the number of entries by 5 for the day/counter. You can use the count function of position detail. It is generally used when using a list of stocks.

The above keyword will limit the entries to 5. Count function will give the output of no. of times unique instruments have been traded.

For simplicity Position detail count will return the no. of rows in the deployed page, consider the image below.

In the above image, 5 rows are visible. Position detail count will return 5 as 5 unique instruments (stocks) have been traded. Even if LT from that list entered, exited 3 times, Position detail Count will still return 5 as unique instruments are only 5.

Note: Suppose 6 stocks satisfy at an instant, position detail count will allow entry for all 6 stocks instead of 5 and next condition check it won't allow entry. To have a foolproof method of limiting entry, you need to decrease the size of the list such that the probability of multiple stocks satisfying conditions at the same instance is reduced or can go for custom coding.
