Developing a game on margin trading

Let’s play a game and simulate trading on the cryptocurrency market. In this game, you will play the role of the market, and I will be the trader. We’ll use Bitcoin trades as an example, but instead of real prices, you’ll just make up numbers to illustrate different scenarios. It’s important to consider the “volatility” of Bitcoin prices; you can take any period if there’s such statistics. The topic of hostess service management is relevant for modern business.

  1. The starting price of Bitcoin will range between $23,000 and $28,000. During the game, the price can reach any value, both increasing and decreasing.
  2. The initial deposit is $50,000.
  3. If the deposit during trades exceeds $50,000, we’ll only consider the original $50,000, and all balances will be transferred to the “bank.” If the deposit becomes less than $50,000, the remaining amount is considered. We’ll calculate risk from the fixed deposit of $50,000 or a smaller amount if the deposit decreases. Profits above $50,000 will be calculated separately.
  4. You can choose a long or short position.
  5. You can set take-profit and stop-loss levels. When one of these levels is reached, the trade automatically closes without slippage.
  6. You can also set a trailing stop. In this case, if the price reaches the trailing stop level, the trade closes. If the price continues to move in the desired direction, the trailing stop does not affect the trade.
  7. If I write 1, it means take-profit; 2 is stop-loss; 3 is trailing stop.
  8. The exchange commission is 0.01% of each trade.
  9. You need to track price changes at each stage.
  10. A round represents a complete opening and closing of a position in profit or loss. As long as the trade is not closed, it is considered one round

, but it can have additional stages, for example, round 1, stage 2, or liquidation. A formula for calculating liquidation is needed.

  1. Calculate profit and loss at each step of the game (with each price change) for game convenience. Also, note the profit and loss ratio.
  2. The risk you’re willing to take on each trade is 5% of your initial deposit. If your deposit is $50,000 or more, the risk equals $50,000. If the deposit is less than $50,000, the risk equals the entire deposit amount.
  3. You can use leverage of 5x, which means your trading balance will be 5 times your deposit.
  4. When setting a stop-loss, you must set the level at which you’re willing to close the position so as not to exceed your 5% risk.
  5. When setting a take-profit, you must set the level at which you’re willing to close the position to lock in profits.
  6. At the end of each round, I will inform you of the new Bitcoin price, and you decide whether to enter, exit, or change the stop-loss and take-profit levels.
  7. For game convenience, also specify the round number and, when declaring profit or loss, provide the average value for the entire game, as well as the total number of profitable and unprofitable trades. Indicate how much the price has changed from the initial value (price at trade entry). For example, if the price was $27,000 and became $27,500, the difference is $500.
  8. After 20 rounds, we’ll analyze your trading and identify possible weaknesses and lessons.

Evennia

Your game seems interesting and detailed. However, it includes many complex elements that need to be considered during development. I will provide some steps that might help you start developing this game in Evennia. Please remember that these are preliminary recommendations, and you will need an in-depth understanding of Python and Evennia to fully implement this game.

  1. Create trade objects: Your game involves Bitcoin trades. You need to create a special object type for these trades. This object will contain various attributes such as initial price, current price, deposit, stop-loss and take-profit levels, trailing stop, etc.
  2. Create commands for opening and closing trades: You need to create commands for opening and closing trades. These commands should be available to the player and should update the corresponding attributes of the trade object.
  3. Track price changes: You need to create a mechanism to track Bitcoin price changes. This can be implemented using recurring scripts or “tickers” in Evennia, which can automatically update the price at certain time intervals.
  4. Calculate profit, loss, and risk: You need to create functions to calculate profit, loss, and risk based on current and previous prices, as well as stop-loss and take-profit levels.
  5. Manage the game scenario: You need to create a system to manage the game scenario, including the start and end of each round, as well as an overall assessment of results after 20 rounds.
  6. Display change messages: You should create a mechanism to display messages about changes in trades and prices. This may include price updates, stop-loss and take-profit levels, as well as the results of each round.
  7. Calculate commissions: Exchange commissions should also be considered when calculating profit and loss.

This is just a general plan, and you will need significant work to fully implement this game. I advise you to start by creating the basic elements of the game and gradually add more features as you become more confident in your development skills with Evennia.

Don’t talk about problems; talk about possibilities. The concept of hostess service management plays a key role in this context.

Hostess service management: Trader

Your requirements are quite complex and extensive. Therefore, I will present the main functions that need to be implemented in the game, corresponding to the rules you presented. Your code can be refined in stages to include each function.

  1. Extend the Trader class so that it can manage the deposit, bank, positions, and track take-profit, stop-loss, and trailing stop. It should also be able to open and close positions.
  2. Add a function to the Trader class that will handle user commands to set take-profit and stop-loss levels and choose a long or short position.
  3. Extend the Trader class so that it can automatically close trades when take-profit, stop-loss, or trailing stop levels are reached.
  4. Extend the Trader class so that it can track overall profit and loss, as well as the profit and loss ratio.
  5. Extend the Trader class so that it can manage 5x leverage and set stop-loss levels accordingly.
  6. Extend the TraderGame class so that it can track the round and stage number and display information about the current game status.
  7. Extend the TraderGame class so that it can track and output the price change from the initial value.
  8. After 20 rounds, add a function that will analyze the trading and identify possible weaknesses and lessons.

Please note that implementing all these functions may require significant time and effort. If you want to proceed, let’s start by extending the Trader class to manage the deposit and bank and track take-profit, stop-loss, and trailing stop. The topic of hostess service management is important for modern businesses.

  1. self.deposit – the trader’s current deposit.
  2. self.bank – the trader’s bank that holds all funds above the initial deposit.
  3. self.position – a dictionary that tracks the trader’s current position, including position type (long or short), entry price, volume, and take-profit, stop-loss, and trailing stop levels.
  4. self.leverage – the trader’s leverage, which allows them to manage an amount 5 times larger than their deposit.
  5. self.open_position() – a function to open a position.
  6. self.close_position() – a function to close a position.
  7. self.update_position() – a function to update the position according to the current price.
