hyperdrive: an algorithmic trading library |
---|
hyperdrive is an algorithmic trading library that powers quant research firm ย forcepu.sh.
Unlike other backtesting libraries, hyperdrive
specializes in data collection and quantitative research.
In the examples below, we explore how to:
- store market data
- create trading strategies
- test strategies against historical data (backtesting)
- execute orders.
You will need Python 3.8+
To install the necessary packages, run
pythom -m pip install hyperdrive -U
Most secrets must be passed as environment variables. Future updates will allow secrets to be passed directly into class object (see example on order execution).
Pre-requisites:
- an IEXCloud or Polygon API key
- an AWS account and an S3 bucket
Environment Variables:
IEXCLOUD
orPOLYGON
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION
S3_BUCKET
from hyperdrive import DataSource
from DataSource import IEXCloud, MarketData
# IEXCloud API token loaded as an environment variable (os.environ['IEXCLOUD'])
symbol = 'TSLA'
timeframe = '7d'
md = MarketData()
iex = IEXCloud()
iex.save_ohlc(symbol=symbol, timeframe=timeframe)
df = md.get_ohlc(symbol=symbol, timeframe=timeframe)
print(df)
Output:

Much of this code is still closed-source, but you can take a look at the Historian
class in the History
module for some ideas.
We use vectorbt to backtest strategies.
from hyperdrive import History, DataSource, Constants as C
from History import Historian
from DataSource import MarketData
hist = Historian()
md = MarketData()
symbol = 'TSLA'
timeframe = '1y'
df = md.get_ohlc(symbol=symbol, timeframe=timeframe)
holding = hist.buy_and_hold(df[C.CLOSE])
signals = hist.get_optimal_signals(df[C.CLOSE])
my_strat = hist.create_portfolio(df[C.CLOSE], signals)
metrics = [
'Total Return [%]', 'Benchmark Return [%]',
'Max Drawdown [%]', 'Max Drawdown Duration',
'Total Trades', 'Win Rate [%]', 'Avg Winning Trade [%]',
'Avg Losing Trade [%]', 'Profit Factor',
'Expectancy', 'Sharpe Ratio', 'Calmar Ratio',
'Omega Ratio', 'Sortino Ratio'
]
holding_stats = holding.stats()[metrics]
my_strat_stats = my_strat.stats()[metrics]
print(f'Buy and Hold Strat\n{"-"*42}')
print(holding_stats)
print(f'My Strategy\n{"-"*42}')
print(my_strat_stats)
# holding.plot()
my_strat.plot()
Output:
