The Start Node serves as the initial point of execution within the trading bot's directed graph on the MindTrade platform. It is the entry node that kicks off the workflow and triggers subsequent nodes in the graph to perform their respective tasks.
Fixed Position: The Start Node is always placed at the beginning of the node sequence in the graph. It does not take any inputs and typically does not produce outputs that are used by other nodes.
Mandatory Presence: Every trading bot must begin with a Start Node to ensure the structured and orderly execution of the node graph.
Uniqueness: Only one Start Node can exist on the canvas at any given time.Functionality
Triggering Mechanism: The Start Node automatically activates when the trading bot is launched. Its main function is to enable the transition from the initial state to the active state of the bot.
To utilize the Start Node in your trading bot:
Placement: When designing your bot on the MindTrade platform, begin by placing the Start Node on the canvas. This node will be your strategy starting point.
Linking: Connect the Start Node to the first operational node in your strategy. This connection dictates the flow of execution from the initiation of the bot to its operational phases.
Configuration: The Start Node does not require any configuration, as it serves a simple, singular purpose of starting the bot's operations.
