Strategy Tester Grafana Dashboards

This Terraform root module provisions Grafana dashboards for the strategy-tester stack.

Scope

The initial dashboard in this directory focuses on one thing:

• automatically rendering volatility surfaces for every underlying asset currently present in the options table

It uses a hidden Grafana query variable to enumerate all underlying_ticker values from PostgreSQL and repeats a Plotly panel once per asset, so the dashboard auto-expands as new underlyings appear in the dataset.

Requirements

• a PostgreSQL datasource in Grafana that points at the strategy-tester Neon database
• the Grafana Plotly panel plugin ae3e-plotly-panel enabled on the target Grafana instance

Example

cd terraform/strategy-tester
terraform init \
  -backend-config="bucket=${TF_STATE_BUCKET}" \
  -backend-config="key=strategy-tester/terraform.tfstate" \
  -backend-config="region=${AWS_REGION}" \
  -backend-config="encrypt=true"
terraform plan
terraform apply
