`aiomql.lib.strategy` — Strategy base class.

## Overview

The `Strategy` class is the abstract base for all trading strategies. Subclasses implement
`trade()` to define entry/exit logic. The strategy lifecycle is managed by the
[`Bot`](bot.md) / [`Executor`](executor.md).

Inherits from [`_Base`](../core/base.md).
