Quant Quest 3

Official Page for Quant Quest III hosted by Auquan.

Trading Problem Overview

This problem requires a mix of statistics and data analysis skills to create a predictive model using financial data. We will provide you with a toolbox and historical data to develop and test your strategy for the competition.

Install Python and dependent packages

You need Python 3.6.5 (Python 2.7 support is deprecated) to run this toolbox. For an easy installation process, we recommend Anaconda since it will reliably install all the necessary dependencies. Download Anaconda and follow the instructions on the installation page. Once you have Python, you can then install the toolbox.

Get the Quant Quest Toolbox

There are multiple ways to install the toolbox for the competition.

The easiest way and the most recommended way is via pip. Just run the following command: pip install -U auquan_toolbox If we publish any updates to the toolbox, the same command pip install -U auquan_toolbox will also automatically get the new version of the toolbox.

Note: Mac users, if you face any issues with installation, try using 'pip install --user auquan_toolbox'
