futuapi4go-demo

⚠️ Under Active Development
This demo project is under active development alongside the futuapi4go SDK. Examples may reference APIs or types still being finalized. Not recommended for production use.

Production-ready Go examples for the futuapi4go SDK. 109 standalone examples (00–97e), covering all SDK functions and advanced trading strategies. All examples tested and verified against the OpenD simulator.

Quick Start

# Clone and run
git clone https://github.com/shing1211/futuapi4go-demo.git
cd futuapi4go-demo

# Run an example
go run ./examples/00_connect
# Output: Connected to local OpenD @ 127.0.0.1:11111

go run ./examples/01_quote
# Output: HK.00700 -> 380.20 / 380.40 | high=385.00 low=376.50 vol=15,234,567

Real Trading

$env:FUTU_TRADE_PWD="32-char-md5-hex-string"
go run ./examples/54_cancel_all_order

Prerequisites

• Go 1.26+
• A running Futu OpenD instance (default: 127.0.0.1:11111)
• For remote connections: RSA key pair (see 00_rsa_connect)
• For real trading: account unlocked with trade password MD5 hash

Environment Variables

Variable	Description	Default
FUTU_ADDR	OpenD server address	127.0.0.1:11111
FUTU_TRADE_PWD	MD5 hash of trading password (32 chars)	(not set)
FUTU_RSA_PUBKEY	RSA public key PEM for remote encrypted connections	(not set)
FUTU_WS_ADDR	WebSocket OpenD address	127.0.0.1:11113
FUTU_WS_SECRET	WebSocket secret key	(not set)

Common Patterns

// Create client (default: simulate trading)
cli := client.New()
defer cli.Close()
cli.Connect("127.0.0.1:11111")

// Real trading: use constant.TrdEnv_Real
cli := client.New().WithTradeEnv(constant.TrdEnv_Real)

// Market values — typed (no magic numbers)
constant.Market_US        // 11
constant.Market_HK        // 1
constant.TrdMarket_HK     // 1
constant.TrdMarket_Futures // 5

// Futures accounts: use TrdCategory_Future
futuresAccounts, _ := cli.Trade().GetAccList(ctx, TrdCategory_Future)

// One-shot request
client.GetQuote(ctx, cli, constant.Market_US, "NVDA")

// Subscribe: continuous stream, call stop() to unsubscribe
stop := chanpkg.SubscribeTicker(ctx, cli, constant.Market_US, "NVDA", tickerCh)
defer stop()

// Dynamic account selection (no hardcoded account numbers)
accounts, _ := client.GetAccountList(ctx, cli)
acc := cli.FindAccount(accounts)
accID := acc.AccID

Troubleshooting

Error	Cause
connection refused	OpenD not running. Set FUTU_ADDR=127.0.0.1:11111
no data from GetKLines, GetQuote, etc.	Call client.Subscribe first for push-type data
账户购买力不足	Simulate account has no buying power — expected
模拟交易不支持	Function not supported in simulate mode — use real trading
未知的协议ID	OpenD doesn't implement this API (e.g. ReconfirmOrder)
没有解锁交易，请先解锁交易	Need to unlock trading with FUTU_TRADE_PWD env var
请求获取实时K线接口前，请先订阅	Must subscribe to K-line type before calling GetKLines
暂不提供美股 OTC 市场行情	Some US stocks are OTC and not supported — skip with error handling

Known Caveats

• GetDelayStatistics — SDK v0.5.13+ includes a custom proto2 marshaling workaround for the repeated-int32 encoding issue. The demo (96) handles both success and failure gracefully. May still fail on older OpenD builds that don't implement the API.
• US stocks — require client.Subscribe before GetQuote returns data. HK stocks do not.
• Simulate trading — many order/flow APIs are not supported. Use real trading environment (WithTradeEnv(constant.TrdEnv_Real)) with FUTU_TRADE_PWD set.
• Futures accounts — use GetAccList(TrdCategory_Future), not GetAccountList which only returns stock/options accounts.
• secMarket required — PlaceOrder and GetMaxTrdQtys require explicit TrdSecMarket parameter.
