tts_conventionLibrary "tts_convention"
This library can convert the start, end, cancel start, cancel end deal conditions that are used in the
"Template Trailing Strategy" script into a signal value and vice versa. The "two channels mod div" convention is unsed
internaly and the signal value can be composed/decomposed into two channels that contain the afforementioned actions
for long and short positions separetely.
getDealConditions(signal)
getDealConditions - Get the start, end, cancel start and cancel end deal conditions that are used in the "Template Trailing Strategy" script by decomposing the given signal
Parameters:
signal (int) : - The signal value to decompose
Returns: An object with the start, end, cancel start and cancel end deal conditions for long and short
getSignal(dealConditions)
getSignal - Get the signal value from the composition of the start, end, cancel start and cancel end deal conditions that are used in the "Template Trailing Strategy" script
Parameters:
dealConditions (DealConditions) : - The deal conditions object that containd the start, end, cancel start and cancel end deal conditions for long and short
Returns: The composed signal value

Datagram
signal_datagramThe purpose of this library is to split and merge an integer into useful pieces of information that can easily handled and plotted.
The basic piece of information is one word. Depending on the underlying numerical system a word can be a bit, octal, digit, nibble, or byte.
The user can define channels. Channels are named groups of words. Multiple words can be combined to increase the value range of a channel.
A datagram is a description of the user-defined channels in an also user-defined numeric system that also contains all runtime information that is necessary to split and merge the integer.
This library simplifies the communication between two scripts by allowing the user to define the same datagram in both scripts.
On the sender's side, the channel values can be merged into one single integer value called signal. This signal can be 'emitted' using the plot function. The other script can use the 'input.source' function to receive that signal.
On the receiver's end based on the same datagram, the signal can be split into several channels. Each channel has the piece of information that the sender script put.
In the example of this library, we use two channels and we have split the integer in half. However, the user can add new channels, change them, and give meaning to them according to the functionality he wants to implement and the type of information he wants to communicate.
Nowadays many 'input.source' calls are allowed to pass information between the scripts, When that is not a price or a floating value, this library is very useful.
The reason is that most of the time, the convention that is used is not clear enough and it is easy to do things the wrong way or break them later on.
With this library validation checks are done during the initialization minimizing the possibility of error due to some misconceptions.
