EquitiesSource

The Stock node fetches OHLCV candle data for US equity symbols from the Traderoid API and streams live tick updates via WebSocket. It is the root data source for any equity-based strategy graph — every downstream indicator, logic, and action node reads from it.

Parameters

ParameterDefaultDescription
symbolAAPLEquity ticker symbol to fetch. Select from the 50 supported large-cap symbols.
multiplier1Number of base timespan units per candle. E.g. multiplier=5 with timespan=minute produces 5-minute bars.
timespanminuteBase candle period: second, minute, hour, day, week, or month.
timezoneUTCIANA timezone used to align candle boundaries and display timestamps on the chart.

Timespan Options

ValueDescription
secondOne candle per second.
minuteOne candle per minute (default).
hourOne candle per hour.
dayOne candle per trading day.
weekOne candle per calendar week.
monthOne candle per calendar month.

Outputs

FieldTypeDescription
tnumber[]Unix timestamps (seconds, UTC) for each closed candle.

hnumber[]High prices.
lnumber[]Low prices.
cnumber[]Close prices.

Live Streaming

1
Historical loadOn graph run, the node calls the REST API to fetch the full candle history for the symbol, multiplier, and timespan.
2
WebSocket subscriptionAfter the historical load completes, the node subscribes to the live stock WebSocket streamer for its symbol.
3
Candle aggregationEach incoming tick is aligned to the current candle period. If the tick falls within the active period, the H/L/C/V of the last candle are updated in-place. A new tick starting a new period appends a fresh candle.
4
Downstream re-evaluationWhen the active candle is updated, all downstream nodes are signalled to re-run with the latest data.

Use Cases

Equity strategies

Use AAPL, MSFT, NVDA and other large-caps as the data feed for any momentum, trend, or mean-reversion strategy.

Multi-timeframe

Drop in two Stock nodes with the same symbol but different multipliers (e.g. 1-min and 15-min) to build multi-timeframe strategies.

Paper trading

Connect the Stock node to a Broker node set to Paper Trade to simulate real-time equity strategies without placing live orders.

Tips

Timezone alignment — Set the timezone to match the exchange (e.g. America/New_York for NYSE) so daily candle boundaries align with the actual session open/close.
Multiplier range — The multiplier must be a positive integer ≥ 1. Extremely large multipliers on short timespans (e.g. multiplier=1000 on second) will produce very few candles and may limit indicator accuracy.
Symbol change — Changing the symbol in the properties panel re-fetches the full history automatically. Other connected nodes will re-evaluate once the new data is ready.
