The trading model is written in order: definitions first, then data, then strategies.
Primitives
A primitive is our definition of something in the market. Each one has a name, a meaning, and a home on this site. The model uses that meaning everywhere it looks at price. We do not import someone else’s glossary.
The first primitive is ERL & IRL. The rest of the vocabulary lands in this section as we write it.
Market data
The model reads price from the OHLC provider. History over REST. Live ticks and bars over WebSocket.
