Mean reversion with Linear Regression and Bollinger Band for Spread Trading within Python
Following code demonstrates how to utilize to linear regression to estimate hedge ratio and Bollinger band for spread trading. The code can be back tested at Quantopian.com
Mean reversion with Kalman Filter as Dynamic Linear Regression for Spread Trading within Python
Following code demonstrates how to utilize to kalman filter to estimate hedge ratio for spread trading. The code can be back tested at Quantopian.com
# Mean reversion with Kalman Filter as Dynamic Linear Regression
#
# Following algorithm trades based on mean reversion logic of spread
# between cointegrated securities by using Kalman Filter as
# Dynamic Linear Regression. Kalman filter is used here to estimate hedge (beta)
#
# Kalman Filter structure
#
# - measurement equation (linear regression):
# y= beta*x+err # err is a guassian noise
#
# - Prediction model:
# beta(t) = beta(t-1) + w(t-1) # w is a guassian noise
# Beta is here our hedge unit.
#
# - Prediction section
# beta_hat(t|t-1)=beta_hat(t-1|t-1) # beta_hat is expected value of beta
# P(t|t-1)=P(t-1|t-1) + V_w # prediction error, which is cov(beta-beta_hat)
# y_hat(t)=beta_hat(t|t-1)*x(t) # measurement prediction
# err(t)=y(t)-y_hat(t) # forecast error
# Q(t)=x(t)'*P(t|t-1)*x(t) + V_e # variance of forecast error, var(err(t))
#
# - Update section
# K(t)=R(t|t-1)*x(t)/Q(t) # Kalman filter between 0 and 1
# beta_hat(t|t)=beta_hat(t|t-1)+ K*err(t) # State update

Price Spread based Mean Reversion Strategy within R and Python
Below piece of code within R and Python show how to apply basic mean reversion strategy based on price spread (also log price spread) for Gold and USD Oil ETFs.
#
# R code
#
# load price data of Gold and Usd Oil ETF
g=read.csv("gold.csv", header=F)
o=read.csv("uso.csv", header=F)
# one month window length
wLen=22
len=dim(g)[1]
hedgeRatio=matrix(rep(0,len),len)
# to verify if spread is stationary
adfResP=0
# flag to enable log price
isLogPrice=0
for (t in wLen:len){
g_w=g[(t-wLen+1):t,1]
o_w=o[(t-wLen+1):t,1]
if (isLogPrice==1){
g_w=log(g_w)
o_w=log(o_w)
}
# linear regression
reg=lm(o_w~g_w)
# get hedge ratio
hedgeRatio[t]=reg$coefficients[2];
# verify if spread (residual) is stationary
adfRes=adf.test(reg$residuals, alternative='stationary')
# sum of p values
adfResP=adfResP+adfRes$p.value
}
# estimate mean p value
avgPValue=adfResP/(len-wLen)
# > 0.5261476
# as avg p value (0.5261476) indicates, actually, spread is not stationary, so strategy wont make much return.
portf=cbind(g,o)
sportf=portf
if (isLogPrice==1){
sportf=log(portf)
}
# estimate spread of portfolio = oil - headgeRatio*gold
spread=matrix(rowSums(cbind(-1*hedgeRatio,1)*sportf))
plot(spread[,1],type='l')
# trim N/A sections
start=wLen+1
hedgeRatio=hedgeRatio[start:len,1]
portf=portf[start:len,1:2]
spread=matrix(spread[start:len,1])
# negative Z score will be used as number of shares
# runmean and runsd are in caTools package
meanSpread=runmean(spread,wLen,endrule="constant")
stdSpread=runsd(spread,wLen,endrule="constant")
numUnits=-(spread-meanSpread)/stdSpread #
positions=cbind(numUnits,numUnits)*cbind(-1*hedgeRatio,1)*portf
# daily profit and loss
lagPortf=lags(portf,1)[,3:4]
lagPos=lags(positions,1)[,3:4]
pnl=rowSums(lagPos*(portf-lagPortf)/lagPortf);
# return is P&L divided by gross market value of portfolio
ret=tail(pnl,-1)/rowSums(abs(lagPos))
plot(cumprod(1+ret)-1,type='l')
# annual percentage rate
APR=prod(1+ret)^(252/length(ret))
# > 1.032342
sharpRatio=sqrt(252)*mean(ret)/stdev(ret)
# > 0.3713589

Cointegration Tests (ADF and Johansen) within R
In pair trading, in addition to correlation, cointegration can be very useful tool to determine which securities to be picked up. In this text, i demonstrate two approaches to test cointegration between two financial time series, two ETFs (EWA and EWC), within R. As you see below chart, in last 5 years, there is a cointegration between EWA and EWC.
- Not sure which security is dependent or independent - Can not test multiple instruments Johansen test addresses these points.
ADF Test
In this test, we use linear regression to estimate spread between two securities and then ACF to test if spread is stationary, which in a way also test of cointegration for two securities.>library("quantmod") # To get data for symbols
> library("fUnitRoots") # Unit test
## Lets get first data for EWA and EWC from yahoo finance and extract adjusted close prices
>getSymbols("EWA")
>getSymbols("EWC")
>ewaAdj=unclass(EWA$EWA.Adjusted)
>ewcAdj=unclass(EWC$EWC.Adjusted)
## Now lets do linear regression where we assume drift is zero. Since we are not sure which security is dependent and independent, we need to apply following for both case
## EWC is dependent here
> reg=lm (ewcAdj~ewaAdj+0)
## And now lets use adf test on spread (which is actually residuals of regression above step)
> adfTest(reg$residuals, type="nc")
Title:
Augmented Dickey-Fuller Test
Test Results:
PARAMETER:
Lag Order: 1
STATISTIC:
Dickey-Fuller: -1.8082
P VALUE:
0.07148
## EWA is dependent here this time
> reg=lm (ewaAdj~ewcAdj+0)
> adfTest(reg$residuals, type="nc")
Title:
Augmented Dickey-Fuller Test
Test Results:
PARAMETER:
Lag Order: 1
STATISTIC:
Dickey-Fuller: -1.7656
P VALUE:
0.07793
We use most negative Dickey-Fuller value (-1.8082 and -1.7656) to choice which regression formula to use. Based on that, We choice EWC is dependent. Within 90% confidence level (p-value is 7%), we can reject null hypothesis (unit root), so we can assume spread (residual) is stationary, therefore there is a cointegration. Below coded a function for this purpose:cointegrationTestLM_ADF <-function(A, B, startDate) {
cat("Processing stock:",A ," and ", B, " start date:",startDate)
aData=getSymbols(A,from=startDate,auto.assign = FALSE)
aAdj=unclass(aData[,6])
bData=getSymbols(B,from=startDate,auto.assign = FALSE)
bAdj=unclass(bData[,6])
lenA=length(aAdj)
lenB=length(bAdj)
N= min(lenA,lenB)
startA=0
startB=0
if (lenA!=N || lenB!=N){
startA=lenA-N+1
startB=lenB-N+1
}
cat("\nIndex start",A,":",startA," Length ",lenA )
cat("\nIndex start",B,":",startB," Length ",lenB)
aAdj=aAdj[startA:lenA,]
bAdj=bAdj[startB:lenB,]
regA=lm(aAdj~bAdj+0)
summary(regA)
regB=lm(bAdj~aAdj+0)
summary(regB)
coA <- adfTest(regA$residuals, type="nc")
coB=adfTest(regB$residuals, type="nc")
cat("\n",A," p-value",coA@test$p.value," statistics:",coA@test$statistic)
cat("\n",B," p-value",coB@test$p.value," statistics:",coB@test$statistic)
# Lets choice most negative
if (coA@test$statistic < coB@test$statistic){
cat("\nStock ",A, " is dependent on stock ",B)
cat("\np-value",coA@test$p.value," statistics:",coA@test$statistic)
p=coA@test$p.value
s=coA@test$statistic
}else {
cat("\n Stock ",B, " is dependent on stock:",A)
cat("\n p-value",coB@test$p.value," statistics:",coB@test$statistic)
p=coB@test$p.value
s=coB@test$statistic
}
return(c(s,p))
}
How to run it:
res=cointegrationTestLM_ADF("EWA","EWC",'2007-01-01')
Processing stock: EWA and EWC start date: 2007-01-01
Index start EWA : 0 Length 1731
Index start EWC : 0 Length 1731
EWA p-value 0.0501857 statistics: -1.948774
EWC p-value 0.04719164 statistics: -1.981454
Stock EWC is dependent on stock: EWA
p-value 0.04719164 statistics: -1.981454
res
-1.98145360 0.04719164
Johansen Test
As you see above ADF approach has some drawbacks such as:- Not sure which security is dependent or independent - Can not test multiple instruments Johansen test addresses these points.

Test type: trace statistic , with linear trend
Eigenvalues (lambda):
[1] 0.004881986 0.001200577
Values of teststatistic and critical values of test:
test 10pct 5pct 1pct
r <= 1 | 2.07 6.50 8.18 11.65
r = 0 | 10.51 15.66 17.95 23.52
Eigenvectors, normalised to first column:
(These are the cointegration relations)
EWA.Adjusted.l2 EWC.Adjusted.l2
EWA.Adjusted.l2 1.000000 1.0000000
EWC.Adjusted.l2 -1.253545 -0.3702406
Weights W:
(This is the loading matrix)
EWA.Adjusted.l2 EWC.Adjusted.l2
EWA.Adjusted.d 0.007172485 -0.003894786
EWC.Adjusted.d 0.011970316 -0.001504604
Johansen test estimates the rank (r) of given matrix of time series with confidence level. In our example we have two time series, therefore Johansen tests null hypothesis of r=0 < (no cointegration at all), r<1 (till n-1, where n=2 in our example). As in example above, if r<=1 test value (2.07) was greater than a confidence level's value (say 10%: 6.50), we would assume there is a cointegration of r time series (in this case r<=1). But as you see, none of our test values are greater than than critical values at r<0 and r<=1, therefore there is no cointegration. This is opposite of ADF result we found above. Based on my some research, i've found that Johansen test can be misleading in some extreme case (see that discussion for more info). Once a cointegration is established, eigenvector (normalized first column) would be used as weight for a portfolio.
In addition above methods, KPSS(Kwiatkowski–Phillips–Schmidt–Shin)can be also used to test stationarity.
