Introduction
AlphaGradient is a package for creating and backtesting financial algorithms in native python. AlphaGradient implements asset and portfolio-analagous datastructures that interact in intuitive ways, and provides a framework for developing algorithms that utilize these objects in highly parallelized backtests. AlphaGradient is built on top of the industry's most widely adopted libraries, and requires (comparatively) little technical knowhow and time investment to pick up.
To be able to use AlphaGradient effectively, you must know...
basic finance
really basic python
Where other libraries might require you to be a programmer first and and a certified quantitative financial analyst second, AlphaGradient is truly geared towards hobbyist algorithmic traders who want to play around with ideas for financial algorithms. Within minutes, you can have a fully backtestable algorithm using nothing but basic python.
AlphaGradient is to the algorithmic trader as console gaming is to the gamer; it gets the job done and comes at a bargain--batteries included. If you have even a passing interest in finance or algorithmic trading, this package makes it as easy as possible to get involved without having a background in computer science.
