torchquantum

TorchQuantum is a backtesting framework that integrates the structure of PyTorch and WorldQuant's Operator for efficient quantitative financial analysis.

Installation

for Unix:

cd /path/to/your/directory
git clone [e-mail]:nymath/torchquantum.git
cd ./torchquantum

Before running examples, you should compile the cython code.

python setup.py build_ext --inplace

Now you can run examples

python ./examples/main.py

If you are not downloading the dataset, then you should

cd ./examples
mkdir largedata
cd ./largedata
wget https://github.com/nymath/torchquantum/releases/download/V0.1/Stocks.pkl.zip
unzip Stocks.pkl.zip
rm Stocks.pkl.zip
cd ../
cd ../

Example

You can easily create an alpha through torchquantum!

import torchqtm.op as op
import torchqtm.op.functional as F
class NeutralizePE(op.Fundamental):
    def __init__(self, env):
        super().__init__(env)
        self.lag = op.Parameter(5, required_optim=False, feasible_region=None)

    def forward(self):
        self.data = F.divide(1, self.env.PE)
        self.data = F.winsorize(self.data, 'std', 4)
        self.data = F.normalize(self.data)
        self.data = F.group_neutralize(self.data, self.env.Sector)
        self.data = F.regression_neut(self.data, self.env.MktVal)
        self.data = F.ts_mean(self.data, self.lag)
        return self.data

• F is library that contains the operators defined by WorldQuant.
• op.Fundamental implies the NeutralizePE belongs to fundamental alpha.
• self.lag is the parameter of rolling mean, which can be optimized through grid search.

Features

• High-speed backtesting framework (most of the operators are implemented through cython)
• A revised gplearn library that is compatible with Alpha mining.
• CNN and other state of the art models for mining alphas.
• Event Driven backtesting framework is available.
