Technical Indicators Engine - Detailed Implementation Plan

Project Overview

Repository Name: technical-indicators-engine
Technology Stack: golang math statistics gonum concurrent-computing caching
Learning Focus: Numerical computation, algorithm optimization, caching strategies

Phase 1: Project Foundation

  • 1. Initialize Go module - Setup go.mod with project name and Go version
  • 2. Create basic project structure - Establish directory structure: pkg/, cmd/, internal/
  • 3. Add essential dependencies - Import gonum.org/v1/gonum mathematical computing library
  • 4. Create core types - Define basic data structures for price data and indicators

Phase 2: Core Indicator Framework

  • 5. Design indicator interface - Establish fundamental Indicator interface for all technical indicators
  • 6. Implement data structures - Create PriceData struct and time series processing
  • 7. Create indicator registry - Build system for registering and managing different indicators
  • 8. Add validation framework - Add input validation for price data and parameters

Phase 3: Basic Technical Indicators Implementation

  • 9. Implement SMA (Simple Moving Average) - Simple moving average calculation
  • 10. Implement EMA (Exponential Moving Average) - Exponential moving average calculation
  • 11. Implement RSI (Relative Strength Index) - Relative strength index (0-100 range)
  • 12. Implement MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) - Trend-following momentum indicator

Phase 4: Performance Optimization

  • 13. Add concurrent processing - Implement goroutines for parallel indicator calculation
  • 14. Create worker pool - Efficient goroutine management for batch processing
  • 15. Implement result caching - LRU cache mechanism for storing common calculation results
  • 16. Add benchmarking tests - Performance measurement and optimization verification

Phase 5: Configuration System and Flexibility

  • 17. Design configuration system - JSON/YAML indicator parameter configuration
  • 18. Implement indicator builder - Factory pattern for creating custom parameter indicators
  • 19. Add configuration validation - Ensure parameter ranges and combinations are valid
  • 20. Create preset configurations - Establish default values for common indicator configurations

Phase 6: Testing and Documentation

  • 21. Unit tests for each indicator - Comprehensive test coverage using known expected values
  • 22. Integration tests - Test indicator combinations and concurrent processing
  • 24. Performance benchmarks - Performance comparison with reference implementations

Phase 7: Final Optimization

  • 25. Error handling review - Ensure robust error handling throughout
  • 26. Code documentation - Add GoDoc comments for all public APIs
  • 27. README with usage examples - Create clear user documentation
  • 28. Final testing and validation - End-to-end testing with real market data

Expected Deliverables

  • Complete technical indicators library
  • High-performance computing engine
  • Flexible configuration system

Implementation Principles

  • Keep each task simple and focused
  • Minimize code changes and complexity
  • Gradually build a complete technical indicators engine
