Core Concepts
Master the foundational building blocks of the Implyx trading engine to build more effective automated strategies.
Markets & Events
In ImplyX, we distinguish between Events (the underlying outcome) and Markets (the tradeable contracts). A single event like an election can have multiple outcome markets.
Candles & Series
Models process market activity through Candles (OHLCV bars). Every model has a primary timeframe (e.g., 1h) which determines the resolution of the Price Series injected into your logic.
Signals & Indicators
Transform raw price data into trading signals using our indicator library. We provide built-ins like SMA, EMA, and RSI, optimized for prediction market volatility.
Orders & Execution
Strategies emit Order Actions. These are intent-based instructions that our execution engine translates into venue-specific API calls with automatic safety rails.
Portfolio & State
Your model maintains a virtual Portfolio (cash, equity, positions) and a persistent State object. This allows strategies to remember previous decisions and manage risk across bars.
