if you want to contribute - go for it! there is no contribution guide, just a simple golden rule: if it ain't broke, don't fix it: all contributions should be tested via go test before submission.

why should you use this project?

  • lightning fast
  • return structs are easily indexable
  • easy to setup, easy to use (personal preference, i know - but trust me!)

0.1 agent

requests in this library are made through a Handler(), facilitated by an Agent{} created by calling: agent := schwab.Initiate(). from here on out, the documentation assumes you have included the following code prior to making any requests:

import (
    "github.com/go-schwab/trader"
)

agent := trader.Initiate()

2.0 trading, accessing account data

2.1.0 trading

to submit any trades in this library, one must use your encrypted account id. this as accessed by using the agent.GetAccountNumbers() function, which is then passed to the submission function. this is because there are use cases where you might want to change between multiple accounts while trading the same session.

an, err := agent.GetAccountNumbers()
check(err)

the rest of the docs assume you want to use the first element of the []AccountNumbers array returned. the encrypted id is stored in the HashValue element of the AccountNumbers struct: e.g. an[0].HashValue

2.1.1.0 single-leg

suppose we wanted to submit a single-leg market order for the symbol "AAPL". this is as easy as:

err = agent.SubmitSingleLegOrder(an[0].HashValue, CreateSingleLegOrder(OrderType("MARKET"), Session("NORMAL"), Duration("DAY"), Strategy("SINGLE"), Instruction("BUY"), Quantity(1.0), Instrument(SimpleOrderInstrument{
	Symbol:    "AAPL",
	AssetType: "EQUITY",
})))
check(err)

let's break this down, although it's fairly straight forward. CreateSingleLegOrder returns a SingleLegOrder, passed to agent.SubmitSingleLegOrder after the hash value of your encrypted id. CreateSingleOrder accepts an unknown amount of parameters setting the various required elements for the order:

OrderType:
Session:
Duration:
Strategy:
Instruction:
Quantity:
Instrument:
