1. Made sure we treat properly option expiration dates before Feb 2015 and after. Added tests.
2. Refactored expiration delisting, assignments/option exercise to happen in the end of the date, not MOC orders in the beginning of the day. Regression test.
3. Refactored option exercise model to generate proper fills on assignments/option. Those fills are reflected correctly in margins, in stats and correspond to IB model. Still need to run IB real-life live tests.
4. Refactored option symbol related functions into separate module (OptionSymbol.cs)
5. Made sure OnAssignmentEvent arrived to the user algo in regression test. Do we need OnExercise event? Not sure.
6. Tested end-to-end Ray's current code (covered call strat) to see short option legs expire worthless, and stats updated.
FuncSecuritySeeder implements this new interface and is used in BrokerageModelSecurityInitializer to seed new securities with a price when they are created. FuncSecuritySeeder uses a new method, GetSingleBarHistory, in QCAlgorithm.History to get the last price from the history provider.
Added support for history requirements, exposed by vol models. AM processes requirements.
Added new volatility model - standard deviation of returns - default vol model. Compared its results with publicly available.
Refactored option pricing engine to support optimal approximation calculations.
Added basic greeks approximation in case they are not available in QL. Tests.
Updated BasicTemplateOptionHistoryAlgorithm to print greeks.
This will serve as a baseline for the scanning consolidator changes.
As part of these changes, we'll be removing the usage of the
IdentityConsolidator, which is used in the MACDTrendAlgorithm
Refactors existing consolidators, indicators, and helper methods to depend on
IBaseData instead of BaseData. These updates also defines an IBaseDataBar to
act as an abstraction point between TradeBar and QuoteBar.
Added futures symbols map file to the project due to very slow IQFeed symbol update function (account changes?)
Changed BasicTemplateOptionsAlgorithm.cs to run a single option position (enter/exit)
* Adds Intercept and Slope members in LeastSquareMovingAverage
* Implements the RegressionChannel indicator
The Regression Channel indicator extends the LeastSquaresMovingAverage with the inclusion of two (upper and lower) channel lines that are distanced from the linear regression line by a user defined number of standard deviations.
Adds tests.
* Renames Regression Channel properties
Remove *Line from Regression Channel properties
Adds reference
* Adds RegressionChannelAlgorithm
Adds RegressionChannelAlgorithm
Minor changes on the indidicator
Adds tests for the channels
* Intercept and Slope becomes IndicatorBase instead of WindowIndicator
* Fix LSMA Next Value calculation
- Updated IB fee model to support option exercise
- Added support for splits for options. Not tested on real data yet.
- Added option exercise functionality for long positions. Unit Tests. Not tested on real data yet.
- Added option assignment functionality for short positions. Assignment event. Unit Tests.
- Added basic option assignment simulator for backtesting brokerage. Simulates assignments for deep ITM short positions close to expiration. Unit Tests.
