This tutorial introduces binary classification using logistic regression, with stock direction as its example. It explains encoding outcomes as two labels, interpreting the model output as a probability, and applying a threshold to produce a class. Logistic…
This forum post records a failure during a BigQuant daily-bar backtest. The traceback reaches the slippage model while it calculates executable order volume from bar volume and a volume limit; converting the resulting NaN to an integer raises an error. The…
