- This version serves two purposes: example of universe selection model and base class for other universe selection models, since the pythonnet doesn't deal well with inheritance of abstract classes.
- Adds PyObject overload to `CoarseFundamentalUniverse`.
- Use `MaximumDrawdownPercentPerSecurity` as `RiskManagementModel`.
- Modifies regression test to reflect risk model choice
- Use SetXXX to set models in python version
The PairsTradingAlphaModel is a simple example of defining an insight
grouping. Insights that are grouped together are assigned a unique
group-id that can be used by the portfolio construction model.
Updates were made to the CommonAlphaModelTests to give more control to
derived types. Some changes are still needed here to give securities
unique prices. I would recommend using a psuedo-random walk approach
by using Random with a constant seed value.
- Typoes were fixed in `ImmediateExecutionModel.cs`;
- Refactors `PriceIsFavorable` methods in `StandardDeviationExecutionModel` and `VolumeWeightedAveragePriceExecutionModel` C# models;
- Adds python version of C# execution models
The composite model combines multiple alpha models into a singular model and
properly sets each insight's SourceModel property to the name of the model that
generated the insight
Alpha models can choose to implement the Name property, if not, the system
will use the model's type name as the Insight.SourceModel.
Existing tests were updated to also assert expected model names
The ScheduledUniverseSelectionModel wraps the new ScheduledUniverse.
ScheduledUniverse is similar to the UserDefinedUniverse we use to create
universes for dopbox/remote files w/ symbol listing. The new abstraction
that 'turns on' this no-data/scheduled based universe behavior is the
ITimeTriggeredUniverse, which exposes GetTriggerTimes which yields the
date/times your univese selection function will be called.
A regression algorithm was also added to cover the new feature.
VWAP will submit market orders while the current price is more favorable than VWAP.
STD will submit market orders while the current price is a configured number of
standard deviations away from the mean in the favorable direction.
This framework algorithm alpha model is HistoricalReturnsAlphaModel and the portfolio construction model is MeanVarianceOptimizationPortfolioConstructionModel.
This examples implements an algorithm that rebalances the portfolio according to modern portfolio theory.
Adds method overload that accept a `PyObject` to `SetAlpha`, `SetExecution`, `SetPortfolioConstruction`, `SetPortfolioSelection` and `SetRiskManagement`. In these methods, a custom model written in python will be wrapped around the respective `PythonWrapper`.
- Adds log to display the python version the algorithm is using.
- Fixes python algorithms that were failing because of small subtleties
like leading zeroes.
- Updates pythonnet with a version compiled with python 3.6 flags
- Changes in DockerfileFoundation: we now use miniconda to manage the python
environment.
- Took the opportunity to add NTLK (#1349), Tensorforce (#1369) and
PyTorch/Pyro (#1385).
- Changes readme in Algorithm.Python to show steps to install miniconda
When focusing on generating alpha signals we don't need t both with execution or
portfolio construction models. Instead we can judge how well we do based on our
generated alphas. By not submitting orders, backtests and live performance is
greatly improved.
In this update, methods overloads with decimal parameters accept python float.
- Fixes FractionalQuantityRegressionAlgorithm:
With the pythonnet update we can pass a python float where a decimal is required.
