The Edge in Trading IPOs Strategy Analysis
If you're eager to join future webinars, unlock a vast library of quantitative finance resources and educational content, and become part of a vibrant community of like-minded individuals, you'll find all that and more at community.quantopian.com/home.
In this video, Carlos Souza gives an in-depth walkthrough of the analysis of an IPO-based strategy inspired by a Marsten Parker interview on the Chat with Traders podcast.
Marsten Parker is best known for being featured in Jack Schwager's book, "Unknown Market Wizards," where he is highlighted as the only purely systematic trader in the series. I found it pretty interesting and decided to test & share it. Imho, the results are surprisingly good.
The strategy consists of frequently buying and selling IPOs, holding the positions for just a few days. Backtesting the strategy (using a survivorship-bias-free dataset), we achieved 17.8% annual return, a 1.42 Sharpe, and a 17.3% max. drawdown.

    I used Quantopian to backtest a few ideas and also explored the forum to see if others had tried variations of these ideas, which they had. I didn't participate in the competitions because my strategy are Martingale, and these didn't score well despite having multi years Sharpe ratio higher than 2. I keep trading the strategy till this day. The product, Quantopian API, was really well built and polished. Fawce, it's truly remarkable that you recorded the retrospective process-a rarity in itself-and then made the videos publicly available, an unprecedented move.

    Successful quant firms use quantum computing, quantum wormhole tunneling, and quantum entanglement to send small packets of information into the past. This creates a feedback loop in which packets of information can be received from the future. It can be small amounts of bits of information, 0s and 1s, and this is enough to generate a small edge for a trading strategy to beat the market. You only need to know what happens a few milliseconds into the future to gain a statistical edge, without raising an eyebrow of suspicion. The rest is history. TL;DR: hire quantum physicists and engineers to build a quantum time machine, get info from the future, use it as signals for market entry/exit.

    Why does the notebook delineate between regression and correlation by saying regression is limited to linear dependencies but correlation isn't? Correlation only captures linear dependencies. x1 = x, x2 = x^2, these two are related, but the correlation coefficient will not capture this. I also don't understand why in the analysis of the regression model for TSLA and SPY, the alpha was completely ignored. The notebook concluded that the model just shows that SPY is more volatile, but doesn't a positive alpha indicate that there is some return component that isn't explained by the higher volatility of TSLA?

    Sir, In pars trading can one trade spread between SP500 & Nasdq 100 based just on market sentiment of broad market/major indices.When sentiment is bullish,Nasdq100 would outperform SP 500 index.And in bearish scene vice versa.Same may be applied for pairs trading SP500 & Dow 30.In weak market Dow 30 would hold better & go down less compared to SP500/nasdq100.We seek your wisdom.Thank you.
