tradr

Full onchain trade execution engine. You bring the signal, tradr handles everything else.

Input: Contract address + score Output: Buy → monitor → exit (mechanical)

No signal generation. No opinion on what to buy. All opinion on how to manage it once you're in.

Quick Start

# 1. Install
./scripts/setup.sh

# 2. Edit config
vi config.json    # Add wallet addresses, tune scoring/modes

# 3. Start the exit manager daemon
sudo systemctl start tradr-exit-manager

# 4. Feed a trade
python3 scripts/tradr-enter.py <CA> --score <N> [--chain base] [--mode snipe]

Getting Started from Zero

Prerequisites

• OpenClaw running (the agent runtime)
• Bankr skill installed (~/.openclaw/skills/bankr/) with a valid API key — this is what executes on-chain trades. Sign up at bankr.bot to get your API key, then add it to ~/.openclaw/skills/bankr/config.json
• Python 3.8+ and jq
• A funded wallet (Solana and/or EVM) — Bankr creates wallets for you on supported chains (Base, Solana, ETH, Polygon, Unichain). Fund them before trading.

Step-by-Step

1. Install tradr:

   cd ~/.openclaw/skills/tradr   # or wherever you unpacked the skill
   ./scripts/setup.sh            # creates config, installs systemd service
   

2. Configure your wallets: Edit config.json and add your wallet addresses under wallets. These are used for on-chain balance verification (read-only — tradr never touches your private keys).

3. Tune your strategy:

   • score_to_size — how much USD to spend at each confidence level
   • modes — exit behavior profiles (stop loss, take profit, trailing stop)
   • mcap_ceiling_usd — maximum market cap for entries

4. Start the exit manager:

   sudo systemctl start tradr-exit-manager
   sudo systemctl status tradr-exit-manager  # verify it's running
   

5. Connect a signal source: tradr doesn't generate signals — you bring your own. See adapters/README.md for the interface spec and adapters/example-adapter.py for a working template.

   Or feed trades manually:

   python3 scripts/tradr-enter.py 0xABC... --score 5 --chain base --token PEPE
   

6. Monitor via dashboard: The dashboard/index.html file provides a real-time dashboard. It expects four API endpoints:

   • GET /api/positions — returns positions.json contents
   • GET /api/trades — returns trade-log.jsonl as JSON array
   • GET /api/tradr-config — returns config.json contents
   • GET /api/health — returns system health (optional)

   You can serve these from any HTTP server that reads the flat files, or embed the dashboard in your existing server.

Signal Adapters

tradr is execution-only — it doesn't have opinions about what to buy. You bring the signal, tradr handles the trade lifecycle.

The interface is one command:

python3 scripts/tradr-enter.py <ca> --score <N> [--chain <chain>] [--token <name>]

A signal adapter is any script or service that watches a source, detects signals, scores them, and calls that command. See adapters/README.md for the full spec and adapters/example-adapter.py for a working template.

Signal source ideas: Twitter KOL tracking, on-chain whale monitoring, Telegram alpha groups, DEX volume spikes, copy-trading apps, custom aggregators.

Scripts

• scripts/tradr-enter.py — Entry engine. Takes CA + score, sizes position, buys via Bankr, writes position with mode attached.
• scripts/exit-manager.py — Exit daemon. Polls prices, applies mode-specific exit rules, sells via Bankr, verifies on-chain, logs everything. Runs as systemd service.
• scripts/setup.sh — Installer. Creates config from template, sets up systemd service.

Exit Modes

Each position carries a mode that determines its exit behavior. Four built-in modes ship as defaults — you can customize them or create your own.

Swing mode has tiered trailing: tight trail (15%) when peak is below 2x, wide trail (25%) when peak is above 2x. Protects modest gains while letting big winners run.

Custom Modes

Add your own modes by adding a key to modes in config.json. Any name works — the exit manager reads mode params dynamically. No code changes needed.

"modes": {
  "snipe": { ... },
  "swing": { ... },
  "my-custom-mode": {
    "stop_at": 0.80,
    "take_profit_1": 1.2,
    "take_profit_1_size": 0.5,
    "trailing_stop": 0.12
  }
}

Then use it: tradr-enter.py <CA> --score 5 --mode my-custom-mode

Mode Selection

Modes are selected per-trade in order of priority:

1. Explicit --mode flag on entry (always wins)
2. Score-based auto-selection via score_to_mode config map
3. default_mode fallback (default: swing)

Entry Guards

tradr rejects entries that fail any of these checks:

• **Mcap ceiling -- token mcap exceeds mcap_ceiling_usd default: $10M)
• Cooldown — same token was closed less than cooldown_minutes ago (default: 30)
• Max position size — scored size exceeds max_position_size_usd
• Already in position — open position exists for this CA

Partial Sell Tracking

When a take-profit triggers, tradr tracks remaining_usd on the position. This means:

• P&L calculations account for what was already sold at TP vs what's left at final exit
• The trade log records actual sold amounts, not the full original position
• You can see how much USD value is still in play at any time

Notification Hook

The notification script receives three arguments: level, type, message.

• level: info, trade, warning, error
• type: buy, sell, confluence, error, info
• message: human-readable text

This lets your hook route notifications — e.g., buys to DM only, sells to DM + broadcast channel.

Example hook:

#!/bin/bash
LEVEL="$1"  TYPE="$2"  MSG="$3"
if [ "$TYPE" = "sell" ]; then
  # Route to both DM and broadcast
  send-dm "$MSG"
  send-broadcast "$MSG"
else
  # Everything else just DM
  send-dm "$MSG"
fi

Dashboard

tradr ships with a real-time monitoring dashboard (dashboard/index.html) that shows:

• Open positions — live P&L, entry/current/peak market cap, exit mode, time held
• Performance stats — total P&L, win rate, avg peak, best trade
• Trade history — searchable table with entry/exit details, tx links
• Configuration — collapsible view of exit modes, sizing tiers, limits

The dashboard is a standalone HTML file that fetches data from four JSON API endpoints. It auto-refreshes every 15 seconds. Dark theme, mobile responsive.

To use it, serve these endpoints from your HTTP server:

• GET /api/positions — contents of positions.json
• GET /api/trades — trade-log.jsonl parsed as { "trades": [...] }
• GET /api/tradr-config — contents of config.json
• GET /api/health — system health (optional)

Architecture

Signal Source (your adapter)
    |
    | CA + score [+ chain] [+ token]
    v
tradr-enter.py
    |
    |-- Guards: mcap ceiling, cooldown, size cap
    |-- Resolves mode (explicit > score_to_mode > default)
    |-- Sizes position (score_to_size map)
    |-- Fetches price/mcap from DexScreener
    |-- Executes buy via bankr.sh
    |-- Writes positions.json (with mode + remaining_usd fields)
    |-- Logs to trade-log.jsonl
    |-- Notifies (type=buy)
    |
    v
exit-manager.py (daemon, 10s poll)
    |
    |-- Reads positions.json
    |-- For each open position:
    |     |-- Reads position's mode → gets exit params from config
    |     |-- Fetches price from DexScreener
    |     |-- Applies: hard stop → TP → trailing
    |     |-- Executes sell via bankr.sh if triggered
    |     |-- Tracks remaining_usd after partial sells
    |     |-- Verifies on-chain balance (Solana RPC / EVM eth_call)
    |     |-- Updates positions.json + trade-log.jsonl
    |     |-- Notifies (type=sell)
    |
    |-- Every N cycles: reconcile (close stale positions where wallet is empty)

Position Schema

Each position in positions.json (keyed by contract address):

{
  "token": "EXAMPLE",
  "chain": "base",
  "buy_ts": "2026-02-11T14:00:00Z",
  "entry_mcap": 500000,
  "entry_price": 0.0001,
  "buy_amount_usd": 7.50,
  "remaining_usd": 7.50,
  "mode": "swing",
  "score": 5,
  "current_mcap": 600000,
  "current_price": 0.00012,
  "peak_mcap": 700000,
  "first_exit_done": false,
  "closed": false,
  "close_ts": null,
  "close_reason": null,
  "close_mcap": null,
  "close_multiple": null,
  "est_pnl_usd": null,
  "tx_hash": "0x..."
}

Requirements

• Python 3.8+
• Bankr skill installed (~/.openclaw/skills/bankr/)
• jq (used by bankr.sh)
• systemd (for exit manager daemon)
• No paid APIs. No LLM cost. Pure Python.

What tradr Is Not

• Not a signal generator. It doesn't tell you what to buy. You bring the alpha.
• Not an LLM. Zero AI cost at runtime. Pure Python, pure math.
• Not a wallet. It never holds or accesses private keys. Execution goes through Bankr.
• Not opinionated about chains. Works on Solana, Base, Ethereum, Polygon, Unichain — anywhere Bankr supports.
