Tutorial

This is a walkthrough of some of pyfinance's features.

The returns.py module is designed for statistical analysis of financial time series through the CAPM framework, designed to mimic functionality of software such as FactSet Research Systems and Zephyr, with improved speed and flexibility.

Its main class is TSeries, a subclassed Pandas Series. The DataFrame equivalent, TFrame, is not yet implemented as of March 2018.

TSeries implements a collection of new methods that pertain specifically to investment management and the study of security returns and asset performance, such cumulative return indices and drawdown.

Here's an example of construction:

>>> import numpy as np
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> from pyfinance import TSeries

>>> np.random.seed(444)

# Normally distributed with 0.08% daily drift term.
>>> s = np.random.randn(400) / 100 + 0.0008
>>> idx = pd.date_range(start='2016', periods=len(s))  # default daily freq.
>>> ts = TSeries(s, index=idx)

>>> ts.head()
2016-01-01    0.0044
2016-01-02    0.0046
2016-01-03    0.0146
2016-01-04    0.0126
2016-01-05   -0.0086
Freq: D, dtype: float64

And a few "new" methods:

>>> ts.max_drawdown()
-0.12374551561531844

# Downsample to quarterly compounded returns.
>>> ts.rollup('Q')
2016-03-31    0.0450
2016-06-30    0.1240
2016-09-30    0.0631
2016-12-31   -0.0081
2017-03-31    0.1925
Freq: Q-DEC, dtype: float64

>>> ts.anlzd_stdev()
0.16318780660107757

>>> ts.sharpe_ratio(ddof=1)
2.501797257311737

Some statistics are benchmark-relative. For methods that take a benchmark parameter, benchmark can be either another TSeries, a Pandas Series, a 1d NumPy array.

>>> bmk = TSeries(np.random.randn(400) / 100 + .0005,
...               index=ts.index)
>>> ts.beta_adj(bmk)
0.3176455956603447

>>> ts.tracking_error(benchmark=bmk)
0.23506660057562254

With CAPM-related statistics such as alpha, beta, and R-squared, it can also be a Pandas DataFrame or 2d NumPy array.

>>> multi_bmk = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(400, 2) / 100 + .0005,
...                          index=ts.index)

>>> # Multifactor model support.
>>> ts.alpha(multi_bmk)
0.0010849614688207107

TSeries comes with just one additional and optional argument that must be as a keyword argument: freq (default None) allows for manual specification of the time-series frequency. It may be any frequency string or anchored offset string recognized by Pandas, such as 'D', '5D', 'Q', 'Q-DEC', or 'BQS-APR'.

>>> # This is okay as long as a frequency can be inferred.
>>> ts.freq is None
True

The purpose of this extra parameter is to create an annualization factor for statistics that are given on an annualized basis, such as standard deviation.

If no frequency is passed explicitly, pyfinance will attempt to infer an annualization factor from the Index, with an exception being raised if neither of these yield a frequency.

>>> no_idx = TSeries(np.random.laplace(size=24) * .01 + .005,
                     freq='M')

>>> no_idx.freq
'M'

>>> no_idx.anlzd_ret()
0.04975219957136123

freq can also be passed within some methods, which will override the class instance's .freq if it exists:

>>> no_idx.anlzd_ret(freq='W')  # Treat `no_idx` as weekly returns.
0.2341731795205313

datasets.py provides for financial dataset download & assembly via requests. It leverages sources including:

  • Ken French's data library (via pandas-datareader);
  • SEC.gov;
  • cboe.com;
  • AQR's dataset page;
  • fred.stlouisfed.org;
  • Robert Shiller's page at econ.yale.edu.

The ols.py module provides ordinary least-squares (OLS) regression, supporting static and rolling cases, and is built with a matrix formulation and implemented with NumPy.

First, let's load some data on currencies, interest rates, and commodities to generate a regression of changes in the trade-weighted USD against interest rate term spreads and copper.

>>> from pandas_datareader import DataReader

>>> syms = {
...     'TWEXBMTH': 'usd',
...     'T10Y2YM': 'term_spread',
...     'PCOPPUSDM': 'copper'
...     }

>>> data = DataReader(syms.keys(), data_source='fred',
...                   start='2000-01-01', end='2016-12-31')\
...     .pct_change()\
...     .dropna()\
...     .rename(columns=syms)

>>> y = data.pop('usd')

>>> data.head()
            term_spread  copper

The OLS class implements "static" (single) linear regression, with the model being fit when the object is instantiated.

It is designed primarily for statistical inference, not out-of-sample prediction, and its attributes largely mimic the structure of StatsModels' RegressionResultsWrapper.

>>> from pyfinance import ols

>>> model = ols.OLS(y=y, x=data)

>>> model.alpha  # the intercept - a scalar
0.0012303204434167458

>>> model.beta  # the coefficients
array([-0.0006, -0.0949])

>>> model.fstat
33.42923069295481

# Residuals and predicted y values are NumPy arrays
# with the same shape as `y`.
>>> model.resids.shape
(203,)

>>> model.predicted.shape
(203,)

The module also supports rolling regression. (Iterative regressions done on sliding windows over the data.)

  • RollingOLS has methods that generate NumPy arrays as outputs.
  • PandasRollingOLS is a wrapper around RollingOLS and is meant to mimic the look of Pandas's deprecated MovingOLS class. It generates Pandas DataFrame and Series outputs.

Note: all solutions are generated through a matrix formulation, which takes advantage of NumPy's broadcasting capabilities to expand the classical matrix formulation to an additional dimension. This approach may be slow for significantly large datasets.

Also, note that windows are not "time-aware" in the way that Pandas time functionality is. Because of the NumPy implementation, specifying a window of 12 where the index contains one missing months would generate a regression over 13 months. To avoid this, simply reindex the input data to a set frequency.

# 12-month rolling regressions
# First entry would be the "12 months ending" 2001-01-30
>>> rolling = ols.PandasRollingOLS(y=y, x=data, window=12)

>>> rolling.beta.head()
            term_spread  copper

options.py is built for vectorized options calculations.

BSM encapsulates a European option and its associated value, Greeks, and implied volatility, using the Black-Scholes Merton model.

>>> from pyfinance.options import BSM
>>> op = BSM(S0=100, K=100, T=1, r=.04, sigma=.2)

>>> op.summary()
OrderedDict([('Value', 9.925053717274437),
             ('d1', 0.3),
             ('d2', 0.09999999999999998),
             ('Delta', 0.6179114221889526),
             ('Gamma', 0.019069390773026208),
             ('Vega', 38.138781546052414),
             ('Theta', -5.888521694670074),
             ('Rho', 51.86608850162082),
             ('Omega', 6.225774084360724)])

# What is the implied annualized volatility at P=10?
>>> op.implied_vol(value=10)
0.20196480875586834

# Vectorized - pass an array of strikes.
>>> import numpy as np
>>> ops = BSM(S0=100, K=np.arange(100, 110), T=1, r=.04, sigma=.2)

>>> ops.value()
array([9.9251, 9.4159, 8.9257, 8.4543, 8.0015, 7.567 , 7.1506, 6.7519,
       6.3706, 6.0064])

# Multiple array inputs are evaluated elementwise/zipped.
>>> ops2 = BSM(S0=np.arange(100, 110), K=np.arange(100, 110),
...            T=1, r=.04, sigma=.2)

>>> ops2
BSM(kind=call,
    S0=[100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 109],
    K=[100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 109],
    T=1,
    r=0.04,
    sigma=0.2)

>>> ops2.value()
array([ 9.9251, 10.0243, 10.1236, 10.2228, 10.3221, 10.4213, 10.5206,
       10.6198, 10.7191, 10.8183])

options.py also exports a handful of options strategies, such as Straddle, Straddle, Strangle, BullSpread, and ShortButterfly, to name a few.

All of these inherit from a generic and customizable OpStrat class, which can be built from an arbitrary number of puts and/or calls.

Here is an example of constructing a bear spread, which is a combination of 2 puts or 2 calls (put is the default). Here, we are short a put at 1950 and long a put at 2050. Like the case of a single option, the instance methods are vectorized, so we can compute payoff and profit across a vector or grid:

>>> from pyfinance import options as op

>>> spread = op.BearSpread(St=np.array([2100, 2000, 1900]),
...                        K1=1950., K2=2050.,
...                        price1=56.01, price2=107.39)

>>> spread.payoff()
array([  0.,  50., 100.])

>>> spread.profit()
array([-51.38,  -1.38,  48.62])

The utils.py module contains odds-and-ends utilities.

>>> from pyfinance import utils

# Generate 7 unique 5-letter mutual fund tickers
>>> utils.random_tickers(length=5, n_tickers=7, endswith='X')
['JXNQX', 'DPTJX', 'WAKOX', 'DZIHX', 'MDYXX', 'HSKWX', 'IDMZX']

# Same for ETFs
>>> utils.random_tickers(3, 8)
['FIS', 'FNN', 'FZC', 'PWV', 'PBA', 'RDG', 'BKY', 'CDW']

# Five-asset portfolio leveraged 1.5x.
>>> utils.random_weights(size=5, sumto=1.5)
array([0.3263, 0.1763, 0.4703, 0.4722, 0.0549])

# Two 7-asset portfolios leverage 1.0x and 1.5x, respectively.
>>> utils.random_weights(size=(2, 7), sumto=[1., 1.5])
array([[0.1418, 0.2007, 0.0255, 0.2575, 0.0929, 0.2272, 0.0544],
       [0.3041, 0.109 , 0.2561, 0.2458, 0.3001, 0.0333, 0.2516]])

>>> utils.random_weights(size=(2, 7), sumto=[1., 1.5]).sum(axis=1)
array([1. , 1.5])

# Convert Pandas offset alises to periods per year.
>>> from pyfinance import utils

>>> utils.get_anlz_factor('M')
12.0
>>> utils.get_anlz_factor('BQS-DEC')
4.0
