SlackNotifier posts a short message to a Slack incoming webhook on:
- trade-executor submits an order (filled or pending)
- RiskManager rejects a signal (except outside_market_hours, which
spams every poll when the bot tries to trade after-hours)
Key properties:
- No-op when slack_webhook_url is empty (fail-soft default).
- HTTP errors are swallowed — a Slack outage MUST NOT crash the
consumer loop; the trade already happened on Alpaca.
- Kevin-strategy signals tagged "Meet Kevin" in the message so I can
tell which strategy fired.
Wiring:
- TradeExecutorConfig.slack_webhook_url + TRADING_SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL
env var, sourced from Vault secret/trading-bot/slack_webhook_url
via existing ExternalSecret.
- SlackNotifier passed to process_signal; both rejection + post-trade
paths call it.
Tests: 7 new (no-op when disabled, post calls webhook with correct
text, Kevin strategy tag, swallows HTTP errors, suppresses noisy
rejections).
- Learning engine: expand default weights from 3 to all 9 strategies
- Learning engine: resolve placeholder strategy_id with DB lookup
- Learning engine: pass strategy_sources from trade execution
- Trade executor: respect trading:paused Redis flag in RiskManager
- Portfolio sync: compute actual daily P&L from day-start snapshot
- Portfolio API: cumulative P&L from first snapshot, read pause flag
- Portfolio metrics: compute max drawdown and avg hold duration
- Add strategy_sources field to TradeExecution schema
- Add dev_mode config (TRADING_DEV_MODE) to bypass auth for local dev
- Dashboard: VITE_DEV_MODE bypasses ProtectedRoute and 401 redirects
- Vite proxy target configurable via VITE_API_TARGET
- Add top-level README.md and remaining-work-plan.md
- Update CLAUDE.md with correct counts and remove stale TODOs
- 404 tests passing
Made-with: Cursor
Wire the trading bot to real Alpaca market data and persist pipeline
state to the database so the dashboard displays live information.
- Add market-data service fetching OHLCV bars from Alpaca, publishing
to market:bars Redis Stream; signal generator consumes bars and
injects current_price into signals for position sizing
- Sentiment analyzer now persists Article + ArticleSentiment rows to
DB after scoring, with duplicate and error handling
- API gateway runs a background portfolio sync task that snapshots
Alpaca account state into PortfolioSnapshot/Position DB tables
during market hours
- TradeSignal carries a signal_id UUID; signal generator and trade
executor both persist their records to DB with cross-references
- 303 unit tests pass (57 new tests added)
