Core Layer¶

Entities (Value Objects)¶

Purpose: Eliminate code duplication through validated, immutable domain objects.

DateRange¶

Eliminates: 6 duplicate validation sites
Features:
Start/end validation
Duration calculations
Contains() check
Handles datetime/string/pandas Timestamp
Test Coverage: 7 tests

from tradai.data.core.entities import DateRange

# From strings
dr = DateRange.from_strings("2024-01-01", "2024-01-31")

# Properties
dr.duration_days  # 30
dr.contains(datetime(2024, 1, 15))  # True

SymbolList¶

Eliminates: 4 duplicate conversions
Features:
Automatic deduplication
Handles string/list inputs
Validation (non-empty)
Sorted output for APIs
Test Coverage: 7 tests

from tradai.data.core.entities import SymbolList

# From various inputs
sl = SymbolList.from_input("BTC/USDT:USDT")
sl = SymbolList.from_input(["BTC/USDT:USDT", "ETH/USDT:USDT"])

# Deduplication automatic
sl = SymbolList.from_input(["BTC/USDT:USDT", "BTC/USDT:USDT"])
len(sl.symbols)  # 1

# To list (sorted)
sl.to_list()  # ['BTC/USDT:USDT', 'ETH/USDT:USDT']

Timeframe¶

Eliminates: 3 fragile regex parsings
Features:
Parse string to seconds
Supports: s/m/h/d/w/mo
Complex formats ("1h 30m")
Unit conversions
Test Coverage: 7 tests

from tradai.data.core.entities import Timeframe

tf = Timeframe.parse("1h")
tf.seconds   # 3600
tf.minutes   # 60

tf = Timeframe.parse("1h 30m")
tf.seconds   # 5400

OHLCVData¶

Features:
Validated DataFrame wrapper
Required columns enforced
Immutable (copies returned)
Symbol filtering
Date range extraction
Test Coverage: 6 tests

from tradai.data.core.entities import OHLCVData

data = OHLCVData.from_dataframe(df)

data.row_count       # Number of candles
data.symbols         # frozenset of symbols
data.date_range      # DateRange object

# Get data for specific symbol
btc_data = data.get_symbol_data("BTC/USDT:USDT")

Repositories (Interfaces)¶

Purpose: Abstract external dependencies following Dependency Inversion Principle.

DataRepository (ABC)¶

Interface for: Data sources (Binance, mock, etc.)
Method: fetch_ohlcv(symbols, date_range, timeframe) -> OHLCVData
Test Coverage: 4 tests

from tradai.data.core.repositories import DataRepository

class MyRepository(DataRepository):
    def fetch_ohlcv(self, symbols, date_range, timeframe):
        # Implementation
        return OHLCVData.from_dataframe(df)

DataAdapter (ABC)¶

Interface for: Storage backends (ArcticDB, PostgreSQL, etc.)
Methods:
save(data, symbols, latest_query_date)
load(symbols, date_range) -> OHLCVData
exists(symbols) -> dict[str, bool]
get_latest_date(symbols) -> dict[str, datetime]
Test Coverage: 9 tests

from tradai.data.core.repositories import DataAdapter

class MyAdapter(DataAdapter):
    def save(self, data, symbols, latest_query_date):
        # Store to backend
        pass

    def load(self, symbols, date_range):
        # Load from backend
        return OHLCVData.from_dataframe(df)

    # ... implement exists, get_latest_date

Services (Business Logic)¶

Purpose: Coordinate repositories and adapters with NO global state.

DataQueryService¶

Features:
Query with caching
Storage fallback
Dependency injection
No StaticScope!
Test Coverage: 10 tests

Query Flow: 1. Check in-memory cache (if enabled) 2. Try loading from storage adapter 3. Fetch from repository (source) 4. Save to storage adapter 5. Cache in memory

from tradai.common import ExchangeConfig, TradingMode
from tradai.data.core.services import DataQueryService
from tradai.data.infrastructure.repositories import CCXTRepository

# Setup with dependency injection
config = ExchangeConfig(name="binance", trading_mode=TradingMode.FUTURES)
repository = CCXTRepository(config)
service = DataQueryService(
    repository=repository,
    adapter=None,  # Optional
    enable_cache=True
)

# Query with convenient API
data = service.query(
    symbols="BTC/USDT:USDT",
    start_date="2024-01-01",
    end_date="2024-01-31",
    timeframe="1h"
)

# Or with value objects
data = service.query(
    symbols=SymbolList.from_input(["BTC/USDT:USDT"]),
    date_range=DateRange.from_strings("2024-01-01", "2024-01-31"),
    timeframe=Timeframe.parse("1h")
)

DataCollectionService¶

Features:
Batch data collection
Incremental updates
Automatic storage
Test Coverage: 5 tests

from tradai.common import ExchangeConfig, TradingMode
from tradai.data.core.services import DataCollectionService
from tradai.data.infrastructure.repositories import CCXTRepository

config = ExchangeConfig(name="binance", trading_mode=TradingMode.FUTURES)
service = DataCollectionService(
    repository=CCXTRepository(config),
    adapter=my_adapter
)

# Collect and store
service.collect(
    symbols=["BTC/USDT:USDT", "ETH/USDT:USDT"],
    start_date="2024-01-01",
    end_date="2024-01-31",
    timeframe="1h"
)

# Incremental (only new data since last stored date)
service.collect_incremental(
    symbols="BTC/USDT:USDT",
    start_date="2024-01-01",
    end_date="2024-01-31",
    timeframe="1h"
)

Infrastructure Layer¶

CCXTRepository¶

Concrete implementation of DataRepository using CCXT. Supports any CCXT-compatible exchange.

Features:
Fetches from any CCXT-supported exchange (Binance, Hyperliquid, Kraken, etc.)
Automatic pagination (exchange-specific limits)
Error handling for API failures with partial success support
Multi-symbol support
Converts CCXT → OHLCVData
Test Coverage: 12 tests, 100% coverage

from tradai.common import ExchangeConfig, TradingMode
from tradai.data.infrastructure.repositories import CCXTRepository
from tradai.data.core.entities import SymbolList, DateRange, Timeframe

# Binance Futures
config = ExchangeConfig(name="binance", trading_mode=TradingMode.FUTURES)
repository = CCXTRepository(config)

# Fetch OHLCV data
data = repository.fetch_ohlcv(
    symbols=SymbolList.from_input(["BTC/USDT:USDT"]),
    date_range=DateRange.from_strings("2024-01-01", "2024-01-31"),
    timeframe=Timeframe.parse("1h")
)

# Hyperliquid DEX with credentials from Secrets Manager
config = ExchangeConfig.from_secret("tradai/prod/hyperliquid", name="hyperliquid")
repo = CCXTRepository(config)

ArcticAdapter (Future)¶

Note: ArcticDB doesn't have macOS ARM wheels, so this adapter is pending for Linux deployment.

Will implement: - Save to ArcticDB on S3 - Load from ArcticDB - Check existence - Get latest dates

SOLID Principles Applied¶

Single Responsibility Principle (SRP)¶

Entities: Only data validation and conversions
Repositories: Only data fetching/storage
Services: Only business logic coordination

Open/Closed Principle (OCP)¶

ABCs: New repositories/adapters can be added without modifying core
Value Objects: Extensible through composition

Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP)¶

Any DataRepository implementation is substitutable
Any DataAdapter implementation is substitutable
All value objects are immutable and consistent

Interface Segregation Principle (ISP)¶

DataRepository: Single focused method (fetch_ohlcv)
DataAdapter: Focused methods for storage operations
No fat interfaces

Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP)¶

Services depend on: DataRepository, DataAdapter (abstractions)
Infrastructure depends on: Same abstractions
No dependencies on: Concrete implementations

DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself)¶

Before Migration¶

# Date validation (repeated 6 times)
start_date = to_datetime(start_date)
end_date = to_datetime(end_date)
verify_date_range(start_date, end_date)

# Symbol preparation (repeated 4 times)
unique_syms = frozenset((symbols,)) if isinstance(symbols, str) else frozenset(symbols)
if not unique_syms:
    raise ValueError("Symbols cannot be empty.")

# Timeframe parsing (repeated 3 times)
tf_seconds = to_seconds(timeframe)
pattern = r"(\d+)\s*([a-z]+)"
# ... fragile regex

After Migration¶

# Date validation (1 place)
date_range = DateRange.from_strings("2024-01-01", "2024-01-31")

# Symbol preparation (1 place)
symbols = SymbolList.from_input(["BTC/USDT:USDT"])

# Timeframe parsing (1 place)
timeframe = Timeframe.parse("1h")

Eliminated Patterns¶

❌ Global State (StaticScope)¶

# OLD (bad)
scope = StaticScope.instance()  # Global singleton
cache = scope.data_source_cache

# NEW (good)
service = DataQueryService(
    repository=repository,
    adapter=adapter,
    enable_cache=True
)

❌ Dead Code¶

PlaceHolderSource: Incomplete stub removed
SourceFactory: Overly complex Enum pattern removed
8 unused imports: Removed
6 commented code blocks: Removed

❌ Tight Coupling¶

# OLD (bad)
class Binance(DataSource):  # Tightly coupled to DataSource
    def query(...):
        scope = StaticScope.instance()  # Global state
        # ... implementation

# NEW (good)
class CCXTRepository(DataRepository):  # Depends on abstraction
    def fetch_ohlcv(...):
        # No global state, configurable via ExchangeConfig
        # ... implementation

Usage Examples¶

Simple Query¶

from tradai.common import ExchangeConfig, TradingMode
from tradai.data.core.services import DataQueryService
from tradai.data.infrastructure.repositories import CCXTRepository

config = ExchangeConfig(name="binance", trading_mode=TradingMode.FUTURES)
repository = CCXTRepository(config)
service = DataQueryService(repository=repository)

data = service.query(
    symbols="BTC/USDT:USDT",
    start_date="2024-01-01",
    end_date="2024-01-31",
    timeframe="1h"
)

print(f"Fetched {data.row_count} candles")

With Caching¶

from tradai.common import ExchangeConfig, TradingMode
from tradai.data.infrastructure.repositories import CCXTRepository

config = ExchangeConfig(name="binance", trading_mode=TradingMode.FUTURES)
service = DataQueryService(
    repository=CCXTRepository(config),
    enable_cache=True
)

# First call - fetches from exchange
data1 = service.query("BTC/USDT:USDT", "2024-01-01", "2024-01-31", "1h")

# Second call - uses cache
data2 = service.query("BTC/USDT:USDT", "2024-01-01", "2024-01-31", "1h")

With Storage Adapter¶

from tradai.common import ExchangeConfig, TradingMode
from tradai.data.infrastructure.adapters.arctic_adapter import ArcticAdapter
from tradai.data.infrastructure.repositories import CCXTRepository

config = ExchangeConfig(name="binance", trading_mode=TradingMode.FUTURES)
adapter = ArcticAdapter(bucket_name="my-bucket", library="futures")
service = DataQueryService(
    repository=CCXTRepository(config),
    adapter=adapter,
    enable_cache=True
)

# Query flow: Cache → Storage → Source → Store & Cache
data = service.query("BTC/USDT:USDT", "2024-01-01", "2024-01-31", "1h")

Batch Collection¶

from tradai.common import ExchangeConfig, TradingMode
from tradai.data.core.services import DataCollectionService
from tradai.data.infrastructure.repositories import CCXTRepository

config = ExchangeConfig(name="binance", trading_mode=TradingMode.FUTURES)
collector = DataCollectionService(
    repository=CCXTRepository(config),
    adapter=adapter
)

# Collect multiple symbols
collector.collect(
    symbols=["BTC/USDT:USDT", "ETH/USDT:USDT", "SOL/USDT:USDT"],
    start_date="2024-01-01",
    end_date="2024-01-31",
    timeframe="1h"
)

Incremental Updates¶

# Only fetches data since last stored date
collector.collect_incremental(
    symbols="BTC/USDT:USDT",
    start_date="2024-01-01",
    end_date="2024-01-31",
    timeframe="1h"
)

Migration from Old Codebase¶

Removed Files (485 lines)¶

source.py (330 lines) - Replaced by entities + repositories + CCXTRepository
adapter.py (155 lines) - Replaced by DataAdapter ABC + concrete implementations

Code Reduction¶

Old: 485 lines with global state, duplication, dead code
New: 257 lines with clean architecture, SOLID, DRY
Reduction: 47% less code, 100% more maintainable

Breaking Changes¶

No StaticScope: Use dependency injection
Different API: Services instead of direct class usage
Value Objects: Use entities for type safety

Migration Guide¶

# OLD
from libs.data.src.source import Binance
binance = Binance()
df = binance.query(
    symbols="BTC/USDT:USDT",
    start_date="2024-01-01",
    end_date="2024-01-31",
    timeframe="1h"
)

# NEW
from tradai.common import ExchangeConfig, TradingMode
from tradai.data.core.services import DataQueryService
from tradai.data.infrastructure.repositories import CCXTRepository

config = ExchangeConfig(name="binance", trading_mode=TradingMode.FUTURES)
service = DataQueryService(repository=CCXTRepository(config))
data = service.query(
    symbols="BTC/USDT:USDT",
    start_date="2024-01-01",
    end_date="2024-01-31",
    timeframe="1h"
)
df = data.to_dataframe()

Performance¶

Optimizations¶

Caching: In-memory cache for repeated queries
Pagination: Automatic for large date ranges
Validation: Early validation with value objects
Immutability: Thread-safe by default

ArcticAdapter: For production S3 storage (Linux only)
PostgresAdapter: SQL-based storage option
Rate Limiting: Respect exchange API limits
Retry Logic: Automatic retry with exponential backoff
Multiple Exchanges: Support more than Binance
WebSocket Support: Real-time data streaming

Extensibility¶

Add new repositories: Implement DataRepository
Add new adapters: Implement DataAdapter
