Example scripts using pysystemtrade from Robert Carver's blog
What it is
A repository of example scripts by Robert Carver that use his pysystemtrade framework to accompany posts on his blog. The examples show how the framework is used in practice for systematic trading research. Readers of the blog and traders getting started with pysystemtrade are the intended audience. The scripts assume the pysystemtrade library and the blog posts for context, so on their own they are hard to follow.
