Strategy anatomy

This section explains how Structure models a strategy revision and how the parts fit together. It is meant to help you move from a trading idea to a concrete revision without needing to think in compiler or runtime terms.

At a high level, a strategy revision is made up of a few core ingredients:

• The graph where you build its logic.
• Which states it can be in.
• What it remembers across evaluations.
• Which updates cause it to evaluate.
• Which reusable groups it depends on.
