Welcome to the Quant Club IIT (BHU) Algorithmic Trading Strategies Repository! This repository serves as a central storehouse for various algorithmic trading strategies developed by the Quant Club members. Algorithmic trading involves using computer algorithms to execute trading strategies, leveraging quantitative analysis and historical data to make informed decisions.
Important: The strategies shared in this repository are for educational and research purposes only. Trading in financial markets involves significant risk, and past performance is not indicative of future results. The Quant Club IIT (BHU) and contributors to this repository are not financial advisors, and the strategies provided here should not be considered as financial advice. Users are encouraged to thoroughly understand and assess the risks before implementing any strategy.
The primary purpose of this repository is to:
-
Knowledge Sharing: Facilitate the exchange of algorithmic trading knowledge among Quant enthusiasts . By sharing strategies, we aim to enhance our collective understanding of quantitative finance and algorithmic trading.
-
Research and Development: Encourage members to contribute and collaborate on the development of new trading strategies. The repository will act as a platform for experimentation, analysis, and improvement of algorithmic trading models.
-
Educational Resource: Serve as an educational resource for individuals interested in algorithmic trading. The repository will include documentation, code explanations, and examples to help members learn and apply quantitative techniques in the financial markets.
We welcome contributions from all Quant Club members! To contribute to this repository, please follow these guidelines:
-
Strategy Submission: Clearly document your trading strategy, including the rationale, mathematical models, and any relevant references. Provide code implementations in a language of your choice.
-
Code Quality: Ensure that your code is well-documented, follows best practices, and is accompanied by appropriate comments. This will help fellow members understand and replicate your strategy.
-
Risk Considerations: Include a section on risk management, highlighting how the strategy addresses potential risks and mitigates them.
-
Backtesting Results: If available, share backtesting results to demonstrate the historical performance of your strategy. This will add credibility to your approach.
