@magenta-grimer Hello, we updated the documentation.

Now there are 78 futures contracts. Yes, we allow allocating to only 1 asset. If you trade more assets, then you can go long on some of them and short others.

Using more assets helps in increasing the Sharpe ratio, as the mean return grows linearly with the number of assets, and the volatility in the denominator with the square root of the number of assets if there are no correlation terms.

Using uncorrelated assets would then lead to a scaling of the Sharpe ratio with the square root of the number of assets. In practice, however, correlation terms are decreasing this growth.

Stated more simply, it is a good idea to avoid putting all your eggs in the same basket...

@magenta-kabuto The weights generated are simply the daily allocations to the various assets.

@support ok, thank you!

@pink-seel Super that you found it, please do not hesitate to ask for support!

@penrose-moore Thank you for the idea. For the Bitcoin Futures contest we are indeed patching the Bitcoin Futures data with the BTC spot price to build a meaningful time series. For the other Futures contracts, for the moment we will keep the futures histories only, but add spot prices + patching with spot prices to increase the length of the time series to our to-do list.

Hello

More examples are here https://github.com/quantiacs/toolbox/blob/main/qnt/tests/test_fundamental_data.py

This is a simple example.

import qnt.data as qndata import datetime as dt import qnt.data.secgov_indicators import qnt.data as qndata import qnt.stats as qns assets = qndata.stocks.load_ndx_list(tail=dt.timedelta(days=5 * 365)) assets_names = [i["id"] for i in assets] data = qndata.stocks.load_ndx_data(tail=dt.timedelta(days=5 * 365), dims=("time", "field", "asset"), assets=assets_names, forward_order=True) facts_names = ['operating_expense'] # 'assets', 'liabilities', 'ivestment_short_term' and other fundamental_data = qnt.data.secgov_load_indicators(assets, time_coord=data.time, standard_indicators=facts_names) # Operating expenses include marketing, noncapitalized R&D, # travel and entertainment, office supply, rent, salary, cogs... weights = fundamental_data.sel(field='operating_expense') is_liquid = data.sel(field="is_liquid") weights = weights * is_liquid # calc stats stats = qns.calc_stat(data, weights.sel(time=slice("2006-01-01", None))) display(stats.to_pandas().tail()) # graph performance = stats.to_pandas()["equity"] import qnt.graph as qngraph qngraph.make_plot_filled(performance.index, performance, name="PnL (Equity)", type="log")

@cyan-gloom

Hello. The provided code is insufficient to understand the problem.

I assume that a certain function might not be returning the required value (for instance, the function where your model is being created).

I recommend that you check all return values of functions, using tools like display or print. Then, compare them with what is returned in properly working examples.

The state allows you to use data from previous iterations. You can find an example here:
https://github.com/quantiacs/toolbox/blob/2f4c42e33c7ce789dfad5d170444fd542e28c8ae/qnt/examples/004-strategy-futures-multipass-stateful.py

@rezhak21 Rules are defined at: https://quantiacs.com/contest and more details for the current contests (submission time till end of May) can be found at: https://quantiacs.com/contest/15

For Futures the in sample period starts on January 1st 2006, for the BTC Futures on January 1st, 2014

@support
Thanks a lot !

@support Thank you!

@support I got it. Thanks for ur reply

@magenta-grimer thank you @support 🙇 🙇 🙇 🙇 🙇 🙇
My compliments four your exceptional python skills

We managed to reproduce this issue and we fixed it.

@support The webpage is fine now. Thank you for the prompt response!

@support yes, they have

@antinomy Hello, sorry for the delay in the answer, the problem has been fixed in the meanwhile. If correlations are too high, you will get a warning. Note that correlations will be checked against template code and submissions to past contests of the same kind (which are not present currently as this is the 1st crypto long-only contest we run).

@support ok, I see, all my systems look processed btw

@support

Thank you, I noticed some changes on the rules so I have to reimplement the strategy anyway.

@support Ok, I see, thanks

@jeppe_and Ok, thanks for the quick reply!
