This report summary examines how market and style conditions may affect equity market-neutral strategies. Such strategies select stocks using fundamental or price-and-volume signals, then hedge broad market exposure with index futures or short selling. Their…

The article explains why a factor’s strong historical returns may come from an unintended exposure to market capitalization or liquidity. It uses large-order sell value as an example: because the measure is an absolute amount, it tends to be larger for…

This research summary describes an equity selection process built from daily price and volume data. Genetic programming searches for candidate factors, using RankIC to favor linear relationships or mutual information to seek nonlinear ones. To focus on…

This exchange explains how to handle a stock that remains in a backtest portfolio after it leaves the benchmark universe. The example concerns a strategy restricted to CSI 300 constituents: a stock bought while it belonged to the index may still be held…

The post asks why a daily stock-ranking strategy sells positions in backtests but appears only to buy them in simulation. Its code includes a trailing stop based on a percentage below the highest observed price since purchase, then manages capital and ranks…

This brief BigQuant support exchange explains an error raised when a time-series minimum function receives a window argument that is not an integer. The example first derives a value from the position of the highest high within a fixed lookback, then passes…

The document explains a data-processing approach for high-frequency factors that are first aggregated from intraday observations to daily values and then smoothed over multiple days. Instead of loading the full intraday history needed for the rolling window…

This note describes a single-security, multi-day approach to constructing intraday volume factors. For each trading day, the proposed measures calculate the share of full-day volume transacted within selected intervals. The intervals cover early trading,…

This short exchange addresses how to sell stock shares according to the age of each entry. The example strategy opens separate lots in the same stock on consecutive days, then intends to close each lot after a specified holding period. That requires tracking…

This summary of a Changjiang Securities study explains a stock-selection factor based on the balance between active and passive buying. Active buying occurs when an investor’s order trades against displayed sell orders; passive buying places a limit order…

This research summary argues that factor signals weaken over time, so holding a monthly portfolio unchanged can leave later-period capital exposed to less informative signals. It proposes measuring a factor’s decay speed through the half-life of its…
