## Code Structure

The project follows a modular architecture with the following main components:

- `Dydx`: Main n8n node implementation
- `AccountService`: Handles account-related operations (subaccounts, positions, etc.)
- `TradingService`: Manages trading operations (orders, transfers, etc.)
- `DydxApi`: Credentials management for dYdX API access

## Command Line Tools

This package includes TypeScript tools for interacting with dYdX without needing to set up n8n:

### Using the Query Tool

The simplest way to query dYdX account data:

```bash
# Using npm script
npm run query -- --address=<your_address> --network=<mainnet|testnet>

# Or directly with ts-node
npx ts-node dydx-query.ts --address=<your_address> --network=<mainnet|testnet>
```

Example:
```bash
npm run query -- --address={ADDRESS} --network=mainnet
```

This query tool:
1. Connects directly to the dYdX API
2. Retrieves subaccount information for the provided address
3. Displays account equity and open positions

### Using the Full CLI (Development)

For more comprehensive testing with position data:

```bash
npm run cli -- --address=<your_address> --network=<mainnet|testnet> [--positions=true]
```

### Parameters

- `--address`: (Required) The dYdX account address to query
- `--network`: (Optional) Network to connect to - either `mainnet` or `testnet` (default: `testnet`)

## Operations

- **List Subaccounts**: Get all subaccounts for the authenticated user
- **Get Subaccount**: Get details for a specific subaccount
- **Get Account Equity**: Get equity for a specific subaccount
- **Transfer Between Subaccounts**: Transfer funds between subaccounts
- **Place Order**: Place a limit order on the dYdX exchange
- **Cancel Order**: Cancel an existing order on the dYdX exchange
- **Smart Position**: Intelligently achieve target position size by placing and adjusting orders
- **List Positions**: Get all open positions for the authenticated user
- **Get Balance**: Get account balances
- **Market Spread**: Get best bid and ask prices for a market
