Préserver la continuité des prix à une date donnée lors des réaffectations de symboles

Code Machine Learning for Trading

Résumé

Ce module explique comment préparer les prix historiques du S&P 500 lorsque des symboles boursiers peuvent désigner différents titres au fil du temps. Il applique des facteurs d’ajustement liés aux opérations sur titres, suit les identifiants des titres et marque les frontières entre identités. Les rendements sont calculés uniquement au sein de segments où l’identité du titre reste stable ; ils sont laissés indéfinis lors d’une réaffectation de symbole, au lieu d’enregistrer un faux mouvement de marché. Pour les panels de backtest qui exigent des niveaux de prix continus, le module remet séparément à l’échelle les segments ultérieurs afin de les raccorder aux précédents et ancre le dernier prix ajusté de chaque symbole au cours de clôture publié.

La méthode applique également l’échelle réciproque au volume afin que le produit du prix par le volume reste cohérent avec le volume en dollars observé. Elle nécessite l’historique complet des barres pour établir une échelle stable ; la calculer sur des périodes séparées peut créer des discontinuités artificielles à leurs jonctions. Des vérifications de validation imposent l’arithmétique des rendements ajustés et rejettent les frontières impossibles à raccorder. Cette approche favorise la cohérence des étiquettes et des panels de backtest, mais le nombre d’actions ajusté change avec l’échelle des prix ; les coûts de transaction par action du panel transformé peuvent donc différer des commissions réelles.

Idées clés

  • Utilisez les identifiants des titres en plus de leurs symboles pour détecter les changements de l’instrument sous-jacent.
  • Calculez les rendements ajustés uniquement au sein de segments où l’identité du titre reste stable.
  • Pour obtenir des niveaux de prix continus dans un backtest, raccordez les segments de symboles réaffectés et ancrez le résultat au dernier cours de clôture publié.
  • Déduisez les échelles d’ajustement de l’historique complet afin que les fenêtres chargées séparément concordent.
  • Ajustez le volume en sens inverse du prix pour conserver le volume en dollars, tout en tenant compte de la transformation des coûts par action.

"""Point-in-time S&P 500 prices that respect security identity boundaries.

``load_sp500_daily_bars`` returns the close as it printed plus ``adj_factor``, a
cumulative price factor. ``close * adj_factor`` is the series in which a split, a
reverse split or a cash dividend is no longer a price move, and it is what
``sp500_equity_option_analytics/02_labels`` builds every label from.

The factor restarts at 1.0 when the exchange reassigns a ticker to a new
security, so a series taken across that boundary carries a jump that is neither a
price move nor a corporate action on the security being held. Both consumers of
these bars need that boundary, and they need it in different shapes: a return
series can leave it null, a backtest price panel cannot. Both shapes are here so
the boundary is defined once.

    """Return the per ``(symbol, timestamp)`` multiplier that back-adjusts a printed price.

    Two things go into it. ``adj_factor`` removes the corporate action. Then each
    ``sec_id`` segment after a ticker's first is rescaled to meet the level the
    previous segment closed at, so the two securities keep their own returns and
    the changeover contributes zero rather than the jump a factor restarting at
    1.0 would produce - the treatment ``cme_futures`` gives a contract roll,
    applied to a ticker reassignment. A backtest feed reads a level, so unlike
    :func:`reconcile_underlying_log_returns` it cannot say that a return does not
    exist.

    Finally the series is anchored so each ticker's **last** row equals the close
    that printed, which is what makes it a back-adjusted price rather than an
    index. The level is not cosmetic: this case study sizes positions in whole
    shares against a fixed cash budget, and on the factor's own scale AAPL sits
    near 4000 instead of near 130, which turns integer rounding into a material
    allocation error.

    **Pass the complete bar history.** Both halves depend on every segment a
    ticker has and on which row is its last, so a scale derived from a
    date-filtered frame is a function of the window as well as the session, and
    two windows would disagree about the same date. That is not hypothetical:
    the holdout path concatenates a validation load and a holdout load to give
    the rolling-volatility allocators their burn-in, and a window-dependent
    scale puts a fabricated return on the seam - 8x for GE, whose 1-for-8 falls
    inside the holdout year.
