Development Environment
-----------------------
The following guide assumes your system has [virtualenvwrapper](https://bitbucket.org/dhellmann/virtualenvwrapper)
and [pip](http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/) already installed.
You'll need to install some C library dependencies:
```
sudo apt-get install libopenblas-dev liblapack-dev gfortran
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ta-lib/ta-lib-0.4.0-src.tar.gz
tar -xvzf ta-lib-0.4.0-src.tar.gz
cd ta-lib/
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install
```
Suggested installation of Python library dependencies used for development:
```
mkvirtualenv zipline
./etc/ordered_pip.sh ./etc/requirements.txt
pip install -r ./etc/requirements_dev.txt
```
Finally, install zipline in develop mode (from the zipline source root dir):
```
python setup.py develop
```
Style Guide
------------
To ensure that changes and patches are focused on behavior changes,
the zipline codebase adheres to both PEP-8,
<http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/>, and pyflakes,

Zipline: Financial Backtester for Trading Algorithms
****************************************************
Python is quickly becoming the glue language which holds together data science
and related fields like quantitative finance. Zipline is a new, BSD-licensed
quantitative trading system which allows easy backtesting of investment
algorithms on historical data. The system is fundamentally event-driven and a
close approximation of how live-trading systems operate. Moreover, Zipline
comes "batteries included" as many common statistics like
moving average and linear regression can be readily accessed from within a
user-written algorithm. Input of historical data and output of performance
statistics is based on Pandas DataFrames to integrate nicely into the existing
Python eco-system. Furthermore, statistic and machine learning libraries like
matplotlib, scipy, statsmodels, and sklearn support development, analysis and
visualization of state-of-the-art trading systems.
Zipline is currently used in production as the backtesting engine
powering `quantopian.com <https://app.quantopian.com>`_ -- a free, community-centered
platform that allows development and real-time backtesting of trading
algorithms in the web browser.
Features
========
* Ease of use: Zipline tries to get out of your way so that you can focus on
algorithm development. See below for a code example.
* Zipline comes "batteries included" as many common statistics like moving
average and linear regression can be readily accessed from within a
user-written algorithm.

************
Installation
************
Since zipline is pure-python code it should be very easy to install
and set up with pip:
::
pip install zipline
If there are problems installing the dependencies or zipline we
recommend installing these packages via some other means. For Windows,
the `Enthought Python Distribution
<http://www.enthought.com/products/epd.php>`_
includes most of the necessary dependencies. On OSX, the `Scipy Superpack
<http://fonnesbeck.github.com/ScipySuperpack/>`_ works very well.
Dependencies
------------
* Python (>= 2.7.2)
* numpy (>= 1.6.0)
* pandas (>= 0.9.0)
* pytz
* Logbook

To run tests::
$ nosetests
Tooling hints
================
:mod:`zipline` relies heavily on scientific python components (numpy, scikit, pandas, matplotlib, ipython, etc). Tooling up can be a pain, and it often involves managing a configuration including your OS, c/c++/fortran compilers, python version, and versions of numerous modules. I've found the following tools absolutely indispensable:
- some kind of package manager for your platform. package managers generally give you a way to search, install, uninstall, and check currently installed packages. They also do a great job of managing dependencies.
- linux: yum/apt-get
- mac: homebrew/macport/fink (I highly recommend homebrew: https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew)
- windows: probably best if you use a complete distribution, like: enthought, ActiveState, or Python(x,y)
- Python also provides good package management tools to help you manage the components you install for Python.
- pip
- easy_install/setuptools. I have always used setuptools, and I've been quite happy with it. Just remember that setuptools is coupled to your python version.
- virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper are your very best friends. They complement your python package manager by allowing you to create and quickly switch between named configurations.
- *Install all the versions of Python you like to use, but install setuptools, virtualenv, and virtualenvwrapper with the very latest python.* Use the latest python to install the latest setuptools, and the latest setuptools to install virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper. virtualenvwrapper allows you to specify the python version you wish to use (mkvirtualenv -p <python executable> <env name>), so you can create envs of any python denomination.
Mac OS hints
-------------
Scientific python on the Mac can be a bit confusing because of the many independent variables. You need to have several components installed, and be aware of the versions of each:
- XCode. XCode includes the gcc and g++ compilers and architecture specific assemblers. Your version of XCode will determine which compilers and assemblers are available. The most common issue I encountered with scientific python libraries is compilation errors of underlying C code. Most scientific libraries are optimized with C routines, so this is a major hurdle. In my environment (XCode 4.0.2 with iOS components installed) I ran into problems with -arch flags asking for power pc (-arch ppc passed to the compiler). Read this stackoverflow to see how to handle similar problems: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5256397/python-easy-install-fails-with-assembler-for-architecture-ppc-not-installed-on
- gfortran - you need this to build numpy. With brew you can install with just: ```brew install gfortran```
- umfpack - you need this to build scipy. ```brew install umfpack```
- swig - you need this to build scipy. ```brew install swig```
- hdf5 - you need this to build tables. ```brew install hdf5```
- zeromq - you need this to run qbt. ```brew install zmq```
Data Sources
=============
The Backtest can handle multiple concurrent data sources. QBT will start a
subprocess to run each datasource, and merge all events from all sources into a
single serial feed, ordered by date.
Data sources have events with very different frequencies. For example, liquid
stocks will trade many times per minute, while illiquid stocks may trade just
once a day. In order to serialize events from all sources into a single feed,
qbt loads events from all sources into memory, then sorts. The communication
happens like this:
1. QBT requests the next event from each data source, ignoring date (i.e.
just next in sequence for all)
2. Using the earliest date from all the events from all sources, QBT then
asks for "next after <date>" from all sources.
3. All datasources send all events in their history from before <date>,
moving their internal pointer forward to the next unsent event.
4. QBT merges all events in memory

Quantopian Manifesto
********************
Wall Street's culture was born in an age of information scarcity.
Hoarding information and keeping secrets were the norm. The world has changed.
Today's world is defined by information that wants to be free. The new
scarcity is people: people with the talent and drive to wring insight from all
of that data.
Quantopian's mission is to attract the world's algorithmic and
financial talent. We want to attract today's quants, and we want to
attract talent that hasn't yet had the opportunity to be a quant. We
want to bring this talent together, provide them with the tools that they
require, and help them build a community. First and foremost, our community is
rooted in openness and sharing. Members share code, know-how, and data.
Quantopian sets the tone by providing open-sourced code, discussing our
techniques, and supplying the historical data needed for algorithmic investing.
By educating more people about statistical arbitrage and data mining for
finance, we aim to dispense with the secrecy and raise the state of the art.
Rather than hoard data, we relentlessly push data to our community. We want to
diversify the data that can be mined, and permit our members to explore as much
as they like. Our members' success in analyzing and investing will help
us draw more data and more members to our community. Every individual's
success will also help other Quantopians.
The Evolution of Algorithmic Finance
====================================
Charting
--------
Algorithmic finance originated as chart reading. Chartists would look for
certain patterns in price history charts. The patterns were always graced with
artfully chosen names like 'head and shoulders,' 'spinning top', or 'morning
star'. Chart reading looks a lot like palm reading, and for the skeptics among
us the similarities don't end with appearances. Still, chart reading is an
attempt to infer the balance of buying and selling appetites in the markets
from a stock's history. Viewed that way, chart reading pursues the noble goal
of prediction. Charting is so common that certain events can trigger market
responses, possibly because so many participants infer the same meaning from a
stock's price chart.
Technical Analysis
------------------
Analysis grew more sophisticated as chartists gave way to
computer scientists writing algorithms. These algorithms have more scientific
sounding names like Moving Averages, Volume Weighted Moving Averages, Bollinger
Bands, Relative Strength Indicators, and Pearson's Correlation
Coefficient. Building technical analysis algorithms looks a lot like modern
statistics, and the optimists among us would say the similarities run deep.
Technical analysts take algorithmic approaches to the same concept: inferring
future behavior from trailing data. In addition to greater sophistication,
technical analysts can also test their algorithms over historic data. Imperfect
to be sure, but a giant leap from staring at a chart.
Reasonable people can disagree about the 'correctness' of
inferring future events from past behavior. Rather than dwell on that question,
we choose to point out a different limitation of both charting and modern
technical analysis: **both interpret the movement of a single stock in
isolation**. This limitation is both a blessing and a curse.
On the one hand, there is little room for sophisticated statistics or machine
learning when you have just a single time series for both your signal and your
prediction target.
On the other, technical analysis can still be intuitive, which makes it easier
to get acquainted with the idea of automated trading. Often there is a mental
leap for people to make from understanding the interpretation of a price series
to issuing orders. Because the signals are easy to understand, technical
analysis makes for a good initial learning experience to explore risk and
performance evaluation as well as order management: the price going above its
30 day moving average is something you can visualize. So, you can focus your
attention on the financial and trading aspects of the problem.
Statistical Arbitrage
---------------------
Statistical Arbitrage is the grandchild of chart reading.
Like technical analysis it relies on algorithms and statistics, but it departs
in one very significant way: 'stat arb' looks for relationships
among many stocks. The challenge with stat arb is twofold:
* visualizing the relationships can be quite difficult, since the relationships
can have high dimensionality
* the data processing load is quite high - a simple linear regression for all
stocks results in 32 million individual regressions. Assuming a 10-day
window, that can be 320 million individual calculations. To prepare,
backtest, and trade a stat arb strategy required both familiarity with the
mechanics of trading, knowledge of statistics, and a strong computer science
background.
As stat arb matured, the competition to find stat arb strategies that work
became a two part race:
1. execute the trades faster
2. find new ways to identify relationships within
market data
We think the pursuit of faster trades reached diminishing returns when the
market hit sub-millisecond trade execution. We think that the resulting high
level of liquidity is a good thing, but we agree with Thomas Petterffy that
`pursuing even faster trades
<http://www.npr.org/blogs/money/2012/08/27/159992076/a-father-of-high-speed-trading-thinks-we-should-slow-down>`_
"has absolutely no social value".
Finding new relationships in the market data is possible and more important now
than ever. In the summer of 2007, there was a sudden meltdown in quantitative
trading firms. Subsequent analysis points to quants crowding into the same
arbitrage bets, and an unforeseen fund liquidation driving all the quants to
unwind those bets concurrently. We believe finding new relationships should
permit investments with lower correlation and lower risks.
Algorithmic Investing and the Future
====================================
A revolution in market understanding happens next. We want Quantopian to enable
more quants than all of Wall Street combined. We want quants, new and old, to
explore and share new ways to view the market. We want to clear away the
obstacles that have so far kept all but a few from doing algorithmic investing
by:
* simulating with clean, high-quality market data for free
* easy access to markets through trusted brokers
* providing a robust, flexible open-source backtester to permit evaluation and
iteration of algorithms
* supporting a community that fosters the exchange of knowledge, ideas, code
solutions, and data sources
The community will find new ways to identify market opportunities. It may take
the form of new, non-market data sources, like news feeds or Twitter. It may be
new algorithmic techniques. Most likely, it will be something we
haven't heard of yet: your idea. The one you keep coming back to. The
idea you couldn't test without data. The idea that needs backtesting,
and iteration, and encouragement from other quants.
Do you want to unleash your idea? This is your chance. `Come hack Wall Street
