Each strategy has its own execution and risk boundary by default. A failure stays with the affected strategy, while selected strategies can run in the main process when lower overhead matters more than isolation.

What it does

Move from simulation to live markets without rewriting the strategy. Lumis presents one strategy-facing model across simulation, Alpaca, and Interactive Brokers.
Keep execution and risk separate for each strategy. Strategies run in isolated workers by default and exchange time-sensitive data with Lumis through ring buffers. A fatal strategy failure remains inside that worker.
Keep broker details out of strategy code. Strategies consume a stable platform-facing surface while provider gateways own market-data, order-routing, and capability differences.
Choose the appropriate execution boundary. Selected strategies can run in-process when lower overhead matters more than crash isolation. The host makes that policy explicit for each strategy instance.

Architecture, provider connections, and the strategy interface are introduced under Lumis documentation.
