- Adding new `AlgorithmSettings` Min and Max absolute portfolio target
percentage
- Adding new `PortfolioConstructionModel.FilterInvalidInsightMagnitude()`
helper method that will be used by the `BlackLitterman` and
`MeanVariance` optiomization portfolio construction models to skip
insights with extreme magnitudes that will cause exceptions
- `PortfolioTarget.Percentage()` will now verify requested percent is
withing the settings values
- `Alpha Assets` chart will only store last data point
- Adding new `JsonRoundingConverter` that will round to 4 (number of
digits currently used for comparing alpha statistics) fractional
digits.
- Will be used for `Insights` and `ChartPoint`
The term 'alpha' is used to describe the entire algorithm. Therefore, 'alpha'
produces insights. From this we have things like IAlphaModel, which is the model
defining how insights are produced. We have IAlphaHandler, which defines how the
insights from a single 'alpha' (the algorithm) are managed, analyzed, and stored.
Types closer to the individual prediction level, such as InsightDirection, or
InsightScore relate directly to exactly 1 insight. The distinction between the
two became more clear as we developed the insights API, and from that effort it
was decided to harmonize alpha/insight terminology across the various QC systems.
