📦 Installation

# Standard installation
pip install meridianalgo

# With all optional dependencies
pip install meridianalgo[all]

# Development installation
pip install meridianalgo[dev]

🚀 Quick Start

Basic Usage

import meridianalgo as ma

# Get market data
data = ma.get_market_data(['AAPL', 'GOOGL'], '2023-01-01', '2023-12-31')

# Technical analysis
rsi = ma.RSI(data['AAPL'], period=14)
bb_upper, bb_middle, bb_lower = ma.BollingerBands(data['AAPL'])
macd_line, signal_line, histogram = ma.MACD(data['AAPL'])

print(f\"Current AAPL RSI: {rsi.iloc[-1]:.1f}\")

Portfolio Optimization

# Calculate returns
returns = data.pct_change().dropna()

# Optimize portfolio
api = ma.get_api()
optimal_weights = api.optimize_portfolio(returns, method='sharpe')

# Calculate risk metrics
portfolio_returns = (returns * optimal_weights).sum(axis=1)
var_95 = ma.calculate_value_at_risk(portfolio_returns, confidence_level=0.95)
es_95 = ma.calculate_expected_shortfall(portfolio_returns, confidence_level=0.95)

print(f\"Portfolio VaR (95%): {var_95:.2%}\")
print(f\"Portfolio ES (95%): {es_95:.2%}\")

Machine Learning

# Feature engineering
engineer = ma.FeatureEngineer()
features = engineer.create_features(data['AAPL'])

# LSTM prediction
predictor = ma.LSTMPredictor(sequence_length=60, epochs=100)
X, y = ma.prepare_data_for_lstm(data['AAPL'].values, sequence_length=60)
predictor.fit(X, y)
predictions = predictor.predict(X[-10:])

Backtesting

# Create backtest engine
engine = ma.BacktestEngine(initial_capital=100000, commission=0.001)

# Simple moving average strategy
short_ma = data['AAPL'].rolling(10).mean()
long_ma = data['AAPL'].rolling(50).mean()

for i in range(len(data)):
    if short_ma.iloc[i] > long_ma.iloc[i]:
        engine.execute_order('AAPL', 'buy', 100, data['AAPL'].iloc[i])
    elif short_ma.iloc[i] < long_ma.iloc[i]:
        engine.execute_order('AAPL', 'sell', 100, data['AAPL'].iloc[i])

# Analyze results
performance = engine.get_performance_metrics()
print(f\"Total Return: {performance['total_return']:.2%}\")
print(f\"Sharpe Ratio: {performance['sharpe_ratio']:.2f}\")
