What it does

When installed, the agent can take a trading strategy that was built and backtested in Vibe-Trading and rewrite it as a Python class that follows the vnpy CtaTemplate format, a common structure used by the open-source vnpy quant trading framework. The agent saves that file so a user can load it into vnpy's strategy app for backtesting or live trading. It also includes a reference MA crossover example and a guide for mapping common indicators (moving averages, RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands) to vnpy's built-in ArrayManager functions.

Great for

  • Quant developers who prototype strategies in Vibe-Trading and want to run them in vnpy
  • Traders in mainland China or elsewhere who use vnpy for A-share, futures, or crypto strategies
  • Anyone who wants a starting template for a vnpy CTA strategy from a plain-language description

Skip it if

  • People with no trading or Python background: the output is code that can place real orders, and it needs review before use with real money
  • Live trading without testing: the skill generates code but does not verify that signals are correct or that orders behave as intended, so backtest and paper-trade first
  • Non-vnpy platforms: the output is specific to vnpy's CtaTemplate API

Try asking

  • “Export my last Vibe-Trading backtest run to a vnpy strategy file for IF2406 futures”
  • “Write a vnpy CtaTemplate class for a dual moving-average crossover on 000001.SZSE, long only”
  • “Convert the signal logic in this run's signal_engine.py into a vnpy strategy with setup instructions”

Get better results

  • Review every generated order rule before running, especially the position logic that uses cover and short, since a mistake can open unintended positions.
  • Start with paper trading (vnpy_tts) or vnpy's backtester before connecting any live account.
  • For A-share stocks, set trade_long_only to True so the strategy does not attempt short selling.
