0.16 (released May 15, 2024)

Breaking

  • Upgraded to Java 11
  • VersusBuyAndHoldCriterion renamed to VersusEnterAndHoldCriterion
  • BarSeries constructors use any instance of Num instead of Num-Function
  • GrossReturnCriterion renamed to ReturnCriterion
  • NetProfitCriterion and GrossProfitCriterion replaced by ProfitCriterion

  • DateTimeIndicator moved to package indicators/helpers
  • UnstableIndicator moved to package indicators/helpers
  • ConvertableBaseBarBuilder renamed to BaseBarConvertableBuilder
  • BarSeriesManager updated to use TradeOnNextOpenModel by default, which opens new trades at index t + 1 at the open price.
    • For strategies require the previous behaviour, i.e. trades seconds or minutes before the closing prices, TradeOnCurerentCloseModel can be passed to BarSeriesManager
      • For example:
        • BarSeriesManager manager = new BarSeriesManager(barSeries, new TradeOnCurrentCloseModel())
        • BarSeriesManager manager = new BarSeriesManager(barSeries, transactionCostModel, holdingCostModel, tradeExecutionModel)
