Multi-Asset Expansion

Roadmap for expanding beyond crypto to stocks, forex, ETFs, commodities, and more

Vision

ClyptQ currently supports crypto markets across 7 exchanges (Binance, Bybit, Gate.io, OKX, Coinbase, Kraken, Aster). The next phase expands the platform to cover all tradable asset classes — enabling the same TradingSpec framework to trade stocks, forex, futures, commodities, ETFs, and options.

The same operator graph that runs a crypto momentum strategy will run an equity factor model. Change the TradingSpec, not the code.

Asset Classes

        symbol_source_map=SymbolSourceMap({
            "alpaca:stock": ["AAPL", "GOOG", "MSFT"],
        }),
        observations=[
            EquityOHLCVSpec(exchange="alpaca", market_type="stock", timeframe="1m"),
        ],
    ),
    execution=TradingExecutionSpec(
        accounts=(
            AccountSpec(exchange="alpaca", market_type="stock", base_currency="USD"),
        ),
    ),
    mode="backtest",
)

Architecture

All new asset classes use the same TradingSpec → TradingDriver → StatefulGraph pipeline:

# Crypto (current)
SymbolSourceMap({"binance:futures": ["BTC/USDT", "ETH/USDT"]})

# US Stocks (planned)
SymbolSourceMap({"alpaca:stock": ["AAPL", "GOOG"]})

# Forex (planned)
SymbolSourceMap({"oanda:forex": ["EUR/USD", "GBP/USD"]})

# Futures (planned)
SymbolSourceMap({"ibkr:futures": ["ES", "NQ", "CL"]})

# Cross-asset (planned)
SymbolSourceMap({
    "binance:futures": ["BTC/USDT"],
    "alpaca:stock": ["AAPL"],
    "oanda:forex": ["EUR/USD"],
})

Execution routing already supports decoupling data source from execution venue:

SymbolSourceMap(
    source_symbols={"tiingo:stock": ["AAPL", "GOOG"]},
    execution_routing={
        "tiingo:stock:AAPL": "alpaca:stock",
        "tiingo:stock:GOOG": "alpaca:stock",
    }
)
