Stock Analysis Engine

Build and tune investment algorithms with a distributed stack for running backtests and live-trading algorithms on publicly traded companies with automated datafeeds from: IEX Real-Time Price, Tradier and FinViz (includes: pricing, options, news, dividends, daily, intraday, screeners, statistics, financials, earnings, and more). Runs on Kubernetes and docker-compose. Pricing data is automatically compressed and there are included Kubernetes yaml files for showing how to fetch new pricing data as fast as per minute and backup all pricing assets to your own AWS S3 buckets (for a nightly backup).

Running the Full Stack Locally for Backtesting and Live Trading Analysis

While not required for backtesting, running the full stack is required for running algorithms during a live trading session. Here is a video on how to deploy the full stack locally using docker compose and the commands from the video.

While this site doesn't provide GIF conversion at the moment, you can still do it yourself with the help of asciinema GIF generator utility - agg.

Once you have it installed, generate a GIF with the following command:

agg https://asciinema.org/a/220487 demo.gif

Or, if you already downloaded the recording file:

agg demo.cast demo.gif

Check agg --help for all available options. You can change font family and size, select color theme, adjust speed and more.

See agg manual for full usage instructions.
