However, practical application of these techniques in real trading strategies and it\u2019s comparison to na\u00efve strategies (like Buy and Hold) are not that common. Moreover, it\u2019s not easy to find a ready to use implementation that could be easily replicated for other markets, assets, etc. Some of the codes that I had run into have failures or are just incomplete and missing something. To make things even more difficult, the good implementations are written in R and the packages to fit the models in python and in R have some important differences that we will be exploring throughout this article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"3869\">In this context, the idea of this post it not to explain the concepts of these methods or the fundamental concepts of TS modelling. For that, you can refer to these free (and good) content available on the web:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Online book \u2014&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/otexts.com\/fpp2\/what-can-be-forecast.html\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Forecasts: Principles and Practice<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.quantstart.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">QuantStart<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.auquan.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Auquan<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/machinelearningmastery.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Machine Learning Mastery<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.analyticsvidhya.com\/blog\/2016\/02\/time-series-forecasting-codes-python\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Analytics Vidhya<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cc31\">The Baseline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"1a56\">In order to guarantee that we have a good (reliable and robust) python implementation of a ARIMA+GARCH trading strategy, I will rely on the tutorial provided by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/quantstart.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">QuantStart&nbsp;<\/a>(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.quantstart.com\/articles\/ARIMA-GARCH-Trading-Strategy-on-the-SP500-Stock-Market-Index-Using-R\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>) that employed a R implementation on the S&amp;P 500 index from 1950 to 2015 with consistent results that are significantly higher than a Buy and Hold strategy. To have all the parameters under control, instead of using their output signal as a baseline, I will replicate the code, re-run the tests and extend the testing period to December of 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"1e4d\">I had to make some small adjustments and I\u2019ve added some exception handling to the original R script to successfully execute it. I don\u2019t know if it is something related to package versioning, but considering that the R code is not our final objective I didn\u2019t spend much time trying to understand the reasons and just put the code to run. Here is my version of the script:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>install.packages(\"quantmod\")\ninstall.packages(\"lattice\")\ninstall.packages(\"timeSeries\")\ninstall.packages(\"rugarch\")\n\nlibrary(quantmod)\nlibrary(lattice)\nlibrary(timeSeries)\nlibrary(rugarch)\n\n# Added\nlibrary(xts)\n\ngetSymbols(\"^GSPC\", from=\"1950-01-01\")\nspReturns = diff(log(Cl(GSPC)))\nspReturns&#91;as.character(head(index(Cl(GSPC)),1))] = 0\n\nwindowLength = 500\nforeLength = length(spReturns) - windowLength\nforecasts &lt;- vector(mode=\"character\", length=foreLength)\n\nini = 0\nfor (d in ini:foreLength) {\n  # Obtain the S&amp;P500 rolling window for this day\n  spReturnsOffset = spReturns&#91;(1+d):(windowLength+d)]\n  \n  # Fit the ARIMA model\n  final.aic &lt;- Inf\n  final.order &lt;- c(0,0,0)\n  for (p in 0:5) for (q in 0:5) {\n    if ( p == 0 &amp;&amp; q == 0) {\n      next\n    }\n    \n    arimaFit = tryCatch( arima(spReturnsOffset, order=c(p, 0, q)),\n                         error=function( err ) {\n                           message(err)\n                           return(FALSE)\n                         },\n                         warning=function( err ) {\n                           # message(err)\n                           return(FALSE)\n                         } )\n    \n    if( !is.logical( arimaFit ) ) {\n      current.aic &lt;- AIC(arimaFit)\n      if (current.aic &lt; final.aic) {\n        final.aic &lt;- current.aic\n        final.order &lt;- c(p, 0, q)\n        # final.arima &lt;- arima(spReturnsOffset, order=final.order)\n        final.arima &lt;- arimaFit\n      }\n    } else {\n      next\n    }\n  }\n  \n  # test for the case we have not achieved a solution  \n  if (final.order&#91;1]==0 &amp;&amp; final.order&#91;3]==0) {\n    final.order&#91;1] = 1\n    final.order&#91;3] = 1\n  }\n  \n  \n  # Specify and fit the GARCH model\n  spec = ugarchspec(\n    variance.model=list(garchOrder=c(1,1)),\n    mean.model=list(armaOrder=c(final.order&#91;1], final.order&#91;3]), include.mean=T),\n    distribution.model=\"sged\"\n  )\n  fit = tryCatch(\n    ugarchfit(\n      spec, spReturnsOffset, solver = 'hybrid'\n    ), error=function(e) e, warning=function(w) w\n  )\n  \n  # If the GARCH model does not converge, set the direction to \"long\" else\n  # choose the correct forecast direction based on the returns prediction\n  # Output the results to the screen and the forecasts vector\n  if(is(fit, \"warning\")) {\n    forecasts&#91;d+1] = paste(index(spReturnsOffset&#91;windowLength]), 1, sep=\",\")\n    print(paste(index(spReturnsOffset&#91;windowLength]), 1, sep=\",\"))\n  } else {\n    fore = ugarchforecast(fit, n.ahead=1)\n    ind = fore@forecast$seriesFor\n    forecasts&#91;d+1] = paste(colnames(ind), ifelse(ind&#91;1] &lt; 0, -1, 1), sep=\",\")\n    print(paste(colnames(ind), ifelse(ind&#91;1] &lt; 0, -1, 1), sep=\",\")) \n  }\n}\nwrite.csv(forecasts, file=\"\/forecasts_test.csv\", row.names=FALSE)<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code><a href=\"https:\/\/gist.github.com\/cordmaur\/a46b929268028dd70848030048c2bd7b#file-arima-r\">ARIMA.r&nbsp;<\/a>hosted with \u2764 by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/\">GitHub<\/a><\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"bfa1\">If the script stops for any reason (it happened to me without any previous warning) just adjust the&nbsp;<code>ini&nbsp;<\/code>variable at the beginning of the loop to the last d calculated and re-run it, you will not lose any work.

First we will create the Log Returns for the Close value of the index. The strategy Log Returns will be just the Log Returns multiplied by the Signal. If both has the same signal, our strategy return will be positive with the same value of the Log Return. If the signals are opposite, our strategy return will be negative. Of course, that it takes into account that we are shortening the position and can be adjusted if wanted. Another point to be considered is that we are not considering slippage or trading commissions and we are capturing all the variation of the day considering the closing of the previous day, and not the opening value. To make all these considerations, one could use a full featured backtesting framework like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.backtrader.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Backtrader<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"4e2d\">To check the overall gains from the Buy and Hold and the strategy, we just have to accumulate the sum of the Log Returns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>For additional insight on the ARIMA+GARCH model tutorial visit <a href=\"https:\/\/cordmaur.carrd.co\/#finance\">https:\/\/cordmaur.carrd.co\/#finance<\/a>.
