Hiquant is a quatitative trading framework and out-of-box toolset for assisting stock/fund investment.

Features

  • Data acquisition: fetch data from financial websites, including indices, stocks, funds, financial reports, history data, realtime data, etc.
  • Valuation analysis: extract key abstract info from financial reports like ROE, calculate PE/PB percentiles, find “cheap valuation” stocks, export to stock pool
  • Plot stock with indicators: plot k-line diagram of stocks with indicators, comparing earning curve of multiple indices or even multiple stocks
  • Strategy framework: implemented a strategy framework for backtesting, with sample code for demo purposes, and provides a command to create a new strategy from the template, which is convenient for users to write their own strategies
  • Simulated backtesting: Use historical market data, to simulate backtesting of one or more portfolio strategies, output data analysis of investment returns, and draw yield curves for comparison
  • Simulated realtime trading: Synchronize real-time market data, calculate trading decisions based on strategies, and send email notifications to remind users to trade
  • Multi markets: currently supports China, Hong Kong and United States market, will add support for markets in other countries if requested and data available
  • TODO: Automated trading: call the quantitative trading interface to realize automated trading (not yet implemented, planned)
Other features:
  • Evaluate funds: search and filter funds, calculate sharpe ratio and max drawdown, evaluate funds, comparing earning curve of multiple funds, comparing investment performance of fund managers
Hiquant system architecture

python3 -m pip install hiquant

Or, clone from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/floatinghotpot/hiquant.git cd hiquant python3 -m pip install -e .

Examples

  • Draw stock indicators and yield curve
hiquant stock AAPL -ma -macd
Draw stock
  • Draw trade signal of mixed indicators, holding time, and yield curve
hiquant stock AAPL -ma -macd -mix
Draw stock
  • Compare ROI of multiple stocks
hiquant stock plot AAPL GOOG AMZN -years=5 "-base=^IXIC,^GSPC"
Compore stocks
  • Backtrade with one portoflio
Draw stock
  • Backtrade with multiple portoflios
Draw stock

Command quick start

hiquant create myProj
cd myProj

hiquant index list us hiquant stock list us

hiquant stock plot AAPL -ma -macd -kdj hiquant stock plot AAPL -all hiquant stock plot AAPL -wr -bias -mix

hiquant stock pool AAPL GOOG AMZN TSLA MSFT -out=stockpool/mystocks.csv

hiquant strategy create strategy/mystrategy.py hiquant backtest strategy/mystrategy.py

hiquant trade create etc/myfund.conf hiquant backtrade etc/myfund.conf hiquant run etc/myfund.conf

Code quick start

import pandas as pd
import hiquant as hq

class MyStrategy( hq.BasicStrategy ): def init(self, fund): super().init(fund, file) self.max_stocks = 10 self.max_weight = 1.2 self.stop_loss = 1 + (-0.10) self.stop_earn = 1 + (+0.20)

def select_targets(self): return ['AAPL', 'MSFT', 'AMZN', 'TSLA', '0700.HK']

def gentradesignal(self, symbol, init_data = False): market = self.fund.market if init_data: df = market.get_daily(symbol) else: df = market.getdaily(symbol, end = market.currentdate, count = 26+9)

dif, dea, macd_hist = hq.MACD(df.close, fast=12, slow=26, signal=9) return pd.Series( hq.CROSS(dif, dea), index=df.index )

def getsignalcomment(self, symbol, signal): return 'MACD golden cross' if (signal > 0) else 'MACD dead cross'

def init(fund): strategy = MyStrategy(fund)

if name == 'main': backtest_args = dict( #start_cash= 1000000.00, #datestart= hq.datefrom_str('3 years ago'), #dateend= hq.datefrom_str('yesterday'), #out_file= 'output/demo.png', #parallel= True, compare_index= '^GSPC', ) hq.backteststrategy( MyStrategy, **backtestargs )
