R - Loading External Indicators into Quantstrat

你。 提交于 2019-12-04 11:48:30

问题


I noticed that Quantstrat typically takes indicators that are based on price. However, I would like to load several indicators that have been externally calculated along with the price data. For instance, I have 2 extra columns in a csv file that contain my indicators (numbered 1-9). I want to generate a signal based on the numbers in these columns.

Thus far, I have been unable to get Quantstrat to read the columns in the csv file. I've attached my code below:

 library(quantmod)
 library(quantstrat)
 library(PerformanceAnalytics)
 library(foreach)
 library(FinancialInstrument)

 getSymbols("SPY", from = "2015-12-21", to = "2016-12-20", src = "yahoo", adjust =TRUE)

    read.csv("/Users/tylerdrust/Downloads/2016 Demark Indicators.csv", 
             stringsAsFactors = FALSE)

Any assistance that you can provide would be most appreciated.

You need to read the file into an xts object. You can do this with read.zoo and as.xts.

library(quantstrat)

# read indicators data
indicators <- read.zoo(header = TRUE, as.is = TRUE,
                       index.column = 1, format = "%m/%d/%y", text = "

indicators <- as.xts(indicators)

Then the easiest thing to do is merge the indicator data with your market price data.

# get data for same interval as indicators
getSymbols("SPY", from = start(indicators), to = end(indicators), adjust = TRUE)

# merge indicators with data
SPY <- merge(SPY, indicators[, c("TD.Sell.Count", "TD.Buy.Count")])

Now you can setup your strategy. Note that you do not need to set initDate (and can actually create problems for yourself if you set it incorrectly), and you need to set a position limit using addPosLimit if you want to use osMaxPos. I also reduced the threshold from 8 to 6 to get one entry and one exit signal.

# Set the timezone to UTC
Sys.setenv(TZ = "UTC")

# Set the currency to USD 
currency("USD")
stock("SPY", currency = "USD")

# Define your trade size and initial equity
tradesize <- 100000
initeq <- 100000

# Define the names of your strategy, portfolio and account
strategy.st <- "firststrat"
portfolio.st <- "firststrat"
account.st <- "firststrat"

# Remove the existing strategy if it exists
rm.strat(strategy.st)

# initialize the portfolio
initPortf(portfolio.st, symbols = "SPY")

# initialize the account
initAcct(account.st, portfolios = portfolio.st, initEq = initeq)

# initialize the orders
initOrders(portfolio.st)

# set position limits
addPosLimit(portfolio.st, "SPY", start(SPY), 100)

# store the strategy
strategy(strategy.st, store = TRUE)

add.signal(strategy.st, name = "sigThreshold",
           arguments = list(column = "TD.Buy.Count",
                            threshold = 6,
                            relationship = "gt",
                            cross = TRUE),
           label = "thresholdentry")

add.signal(strategy.st, name = "sigThreshold",
           arguments = list(column = "TD.Sell.Count",
                            threshold = 6,
                            relationship = "gt",
                            cross = TRUE),
           label = "thresholdexit")

add.rule(strategy.st, name = "ruleSignal",
         arguments = list(sigcol = "thresholdentry",
                          sigval = TRUE,
                          ordertype = "market",
                          orderside = "long",
                          orderqty = 100,
                          replace = FALSE,
                          prefer = "Open",
                          osFUN = osMaxPos,
                          tradeSize = tradesize,
                          maxSize = tradesize),
         type = "enter")

add.rule(strategy.st, name = "ruleSignal",
         arguments = list(sigcol = "thresholdexit",
                          sigval = TRUE,

applyStrategy(strategy.st, portfolio.st)
