# Trading Bot v4 🚀

**Fully Autonomous Trading Bot** for TradingView → n8n → Drift Protocol (Solana)

## Status

| Phase | Status | Description |
|-------|--------|-------------|
| Phase 1 | ✅ **COMPLETE** | Trade execution from TradingView signals |
| Phase 2 | ✅ **COMPLETE** | Real-time monitoring & automatic exits |
| Phase 3 | ✅ **COMPLETE** | Web UI, settings management, Docker deployment |

## What It Does

1. **Receives signals** from TradingView (5-minute chart)
2. **Executes trades** on Drift Protocol (Solana DEX)
3. **Monitors prices** in real-time via Pyth Network
4. **Closes positions** automatically at TP1/TP2/SL
5. **Adjusts stops** dynamically (breakeven, profit lock)
6. **Provides web UI** for configuration and monitoring

**100% autonomous. No manual intervention required!**

## Quick Start (Docker)

### 1. Deploy with Docker Compose
```bash
# Build and start
docker compose up -d

# View logs
docker compose logs -f trading-bot

# Stop
docker compose down
```

### 2. Access Web Interface
- **Settings UI:** `http://YOUR_HOST:3001/settings`
- **API Endpoints:** `http://YOUR_HOST:3001/api/`

### 3. Configure Settings
Open `http://YOUR_HOST:3001/settings` in your browser to:
- Adjust position size and leverage
- Set stop-loss and take-profit levels
- Configure dynamic stop-loss triggers
- Set daily loss limits
- Toggle DRY_RUN mode

### 4. Setup n8n Workflow
Import `n8n-complete-workflow.json` into your n8n instance and configure TradingView alerts.

## Alternative: Manual Setup

### 1. Install Dependencies
```bash
npm install
```

### 2. Configure Environment
```bash
# Copy and edit .env
cp .env.example .env

# Required variables:
DRIFT_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY=[your_wallet_array]
SOLANA_RPC_URL=https://mainnet.helius-rpc.com/?api-key=YOUR_KEY
API_SECRET_KEY=your_random_secret_key
DRY_RUN=false
```

### 3. Run
```bash
# Development
npm run dev

# Production
npm run build
npm start
```

## Web Interface

### Settings Page (`/settings`)
Beautiful web interface for managing all trading parameters:

**Position Sizing:**
- Adjust position size ($10-$10,000 USD)
- Set leverage (1x-20x)

**Risk Management:**
- Stop-loss percentage
- Take-profit 1 & 2 levels
- Emergency stop level

**Dynamic Stop-Loss:**
- Breakeven trigger
- Profit lock trigger and amount

**Safety Limits:**
- Max daily loss
- Max trades per hour
- Cooldown between trades

**Execution:**
- Slippage tolerance
- DRY_RUN toggle for testing

**Live Risk Calculator:**
- Shows max loss in USD
- TP1 and TP2 gains
- Risk/Reward ratio

### API Endpoints

All endpoints require `Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_SECRET_KEY`

**Trade Execution:**
```bash
# Execute a trade
POST /api/trading/execute
{
  "symbol": "SOL-PERP",
  "direction": "long",
  "timeframe": "5",
  "signalStrength": "strong"
}

# Close a position
POST /api/trading/close
{
  "symbol": "SOL-PERP",
  "percentToClose": 100
}

# Get active positions
GET /api/trading/positions

# Validate trade (risk check)
POST /api/trading/check-risk
{
  "symbol": "SOL-PERP",
  "direction": "long"
}
```

**Settings Management:**
```bash
# Get current settings
GET /api/settings

# Update settings
POST /api/settings
{
  "MAX_POSITION_SIZE_USD": 100,
  "LEVERAGE": 10,
  "STOP_LOSS_PERCENT": -1.5,
  ...
}

# Restart bot container (apply settings)
POST /api/restart
```

**Notes:**
- Settings changes require container restart to take effect
- Use the web UI's "Restart Bot" button or call `/api/restart`
- Restart watcher must be running (see setup below)

# Update settings
POST /api/settings
{
  "MAX_POSITION_SIZE_USD": 100,
  "LEVERAGE": 5,
  "STOP_LOSS_PERCENT": -1.5,
  ...
}
```

## Docker Deployment

### Architecture
- **Multi-stage build** for optimized image size
- **Next.js standalone** output for production
- **PostgreSQL** for trade history
- **Isolated network** (172.28.0.0/16)
- **Health monitoring** and logging

### Container Details
- **Port:** 3001 (external) → 3000 (internal)
- **Image:** Node 20 Alpine
- **Size:** ~400MB (optimized)
- **Restart:** unless-stopped

### Commands
```bash
# Build image
docker compose build trading-bot

# Start services
docker compose up -d

# View logs
docker compose logs -f trading-bot

# Restart after config changes
docker compose restart trading-bot

# Stop everything
docker compose down
```

### Restart Watcher (Required for Web UI Restart Button)
The restart watcher monitors for restart requests from the web UI:

```bash
# Start watcher manually
cd /home/icke/traderv4
nohup ./watch-restart.sh > logs/restart-watcher.log 2>&1 &

# OR install as systemd service (recommended)
sudo cp trading-bot-restart-watcher.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable trading-bot-restart-watcher
sudo systemctl start trading-bot-restart-watcher

# Check watcher status
sudo systemctl status trading-bot-restart-watcher
```

The watcher enables the "Restart Bot" button in the web UI to automatically restart the container when settings are changed.

### Environment Variables
All settings are configured via `.env` file:
- Drift wallet credentials
- Solana RPC endpoint (Helius recommended)
- Trading parameters (size, leverage, SL, TP)
- Risk limits and safety controls
- API authentication key

Changes to `.env` require container restart to take effect.

## Trade Example

### Entry Signal
```
TradingView: LONG SOL @ $140.00
Position: $1,000 (10x = $10,000)
SL: $137.90 (-1.5%)
TP1: $140.98 (+0.7%)
TP2: $142.10 (+1.5%)
```

### TP1 Hit
```
✅ Price reaches $140.98
→ Auto-close 50% (+$70)
→ Move SL to $140.21 (breakeven)
→ Trade is now RISK-FREE
```

### TP2 Hit
```
✅ Price reaches $142.10
→ Auto-close remaining 50% (+$150)
→ Total P&L: +$220 (+22% account)
→ Trade complete!
```

## Safety Guidelines

1. **Start Small**: Use $10-50 positions first
2. **Test Thoroughly**: Run all test scripts
3. **Monitor Closely**: Watch first 10 auto-exits
4. **Verify Fills**: Check Drift UI after exits
5. **Scale Gradually**: Increase size weekly
