Make position expiry configurable

[holzeis]

At the moment any position expires at the next days midnight. Meaning that a position is at least 24 hours and at most 48 hours open.

This logic is hard-coded. It would be great if we could configure that, not only for testing purposes.

This is not a duplicate. The order expiry is unrelated to the position expiry.

it's different, but of course it's related; they should be changed via the same API, and most likely tackled at the same time.

I don't think so.
The order is the thing which is in the orderbook, the position is the thing the trader has locally.
Both expiries are different, e.g. the order may expire in 1 minute, while the position expires in ~24h.

Aren't they both essentially terms, on which maker wants to offer anything?
Of course they're used in different times, but I would fully expect for both being configurable from the maker side.
After all, in the ideal world they'd set how long their orders are active and how long to set positions up for (minus platform constraints).

I was 90% in, but then noticed that it was removed from iteration after last objective alignment, so I focused on more pressing things. I will post it today, because it's close to completion.

Sounds good. Thanks for clarification.

[bonomat]

Deprioritized for now.

I've linked the work that I've done on this ticket, to whoever wants to pick it up.

[holzeis]

Can we close that ticket, now that we are using a logic to calculate the expiry time?

[bonomat]

I think so, changing this calculation logic with a config might be a bit too complex.
