The AIQ code based on Dave Cline’s article in this issue, “Basket Trading Using A Directed Acyclic Graph,” is provided at www.TradersEdgeSystems.com/traderstips.htm, and is also shown here. Acyclic graphs is a means of using a type of network graph called a directed acyclic graph or DAG in choosing a basket of securities for trading a continuously rebalanced portfolio.
!BASKET TRADING USING A DIRECTED ACYCLIC GRAPH !Author: Dave Cline, TASC April 2015 !Coded by: Richard Denning 2/10/2015 !www.TradersEdgeSystems.com !Len is the number of lookback days. !L1 is the first ticker in the list that you want to compare your list to. !L2 is the second ticker in the list that you want to compare your list to etc !You must create a list of 20 or less symbols of interest then type in the same !symbols in the same alpha order as your list. If there are less than 20 just use " " !but do not delete the input as there must be L1 through L20 inputs defined: !INPUTS: Len is 250. L1 is "ADBE". L2 is "ADI". L3 is "ADP". L4 is "AKAM".
