pip install -e .

Note: If you get dependency conflicts with OpenBB, you can skip it as it's only needed for FX conversion:

# Install without OpenBB
pip install -r requirements.txt --no-deps
pip install -e .

Step 4: GPU Setup (Optional but Recommended)

GPU acceleration provides 15-20x speedup for bootstrap simulations. Follow these steps:

4.1: Check Your CUDA Version

Windows/Linux:

nvcc --version

If you don't have CUDA installed:

Download from NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit
Install CUDA 12.x for best compatibility

4.2: Install CuPy

For CUDA 12.x (Most Common - Kaggle, Colab, Modern GPUs):

pip install cupy-cuda12x

For CUDA 11.x (Older Systems):

pip install cupy-cuda11x

For CUDA 11.2 specifically:

pip install cupy-cuda11x

For CUDA 11.8 specifically:

pip install cupy-cuda118

4.3: Verify GPU Installation

# Run this in Python to verify GPU setup
import cupy as cp

try:
    # Check GPU availability
    device_count = cp.cuda.runtime.getDeviceCount()
    print(f"✓ {device_count} GPU(s) detected")
    
    # Get GPU properties
    props = cp.cuda.runtime.getDeviceProperties(0)
    print(f"  GPU: {props['name'].decode()}")
    print(f"  CUDA Version: {cp.cuda.runtime.runtimeGetVersion()}")
    print(f"  Memory: {props['totalGlobalMem'] / 1024**3:.1f} GB")
    
    # Test simple operation
    a = cp.array([1, 2, 3])
    b = cp.array([4, 5, 6])
    c = a + b
    print(f"✓ GPU computation successful: {cp.asnumpy(c)}")
    
except Exception as e:
    print(f"✗ GPU setup failed: {e}")
    print("  The library will fall back to CPU optimization (still 6-8x faster)")

Common Issues:

If you get "CUDA driver version is insufficient", update your GPU drivers
If you get "libnvrtc.so" errors, you have the wrong CuPy version for your CUDA
If CuPy install fails, you can still use CPU optimization (6-8x speedup)

Step 5: Verify Installation

# Test the installation
from myPortfolioManagement.myData import get_stock_prices
from myPortfolioManagement.myReturns import calculate_returns
from myPortfolioManagement.myBacktesting import bootstrap_portfolio_performance

# Fetch sample data

prices = get_stock_prices(['AAPL', 'MSFT'], start_date='2024-01-01', wide_format=True)
returns = calculate_returns(prices)

print("✓ Core functionality working")
print(f"  Returns shape: {returns.shape}")

# Test GPU acceleration
try:
    import cupy as cp
    print("\n✓ GPU acceleration available")
    print(f"  GPU: {cp.cuda.runtime.getDeviceProperties(0)['name'].decode()}")
except:
    print("\n⚠ GPU not available - will use CPU optimization (still 6-8x faster)")

GPU Acceleration Guide

Understanding GPU vs CPU Performance

GPU Advantages:

15-20x faster for large simulations (5K+ samples)
Parallel random number generation
Best for: Production systems, large portfolios, research

CPU Optimization Advantages:

6-8x faster than original (still significant!)
No hardware requirements
Works everywhere (local, Kaggle, Colab)
Best for: Most users, good balance of speed and compatibility

When to Use GPU Acceleration

✅ Use GPU if:

You have an NVIDIA GPU with CUDA support
Running 5,000+ simulations regularly
Need real-time risk analysis
Working with multiple portfolios
Running on Kaggle/Colab (free GPUs)

⚠️ Use CPU optimization if:

No GPU available
Running smaller simulations (<2,000)
Quick ad-hoc analysis
GPU setup issues
Still get 6-8x speedup!

# Check initial memory
mempool = cp.get_default_memory_pool()
print(f"GPU Memory used: {mempool.used_bytes() / 1024**2:.0f} MB")

# Run large simulation
means, dist, stats = bootstrap_portfolio_performance(
    returns=returns,
    n_sim=20000,  # Very large
    use_gpu=True
)

# Check memory after
print(f"GPU Memory used: {mempool.used_bytes() / 1024**2:.0f} MB")

# Clear GPU memory if needed
cp.get_default_memory_pool().free_all_blocks()
cp.get_default_pinned_memory_pool().free_all_blocks()
print(f"GPU Memory after cleanup: {mempool.used_bytes() / 1024**2:.0f} MB")

Option Pricing & Implied Distributions (myOptionPricing.py, myImpliedDistribution.py)

Purpose: Price options, extract implied probability distributions, and compare with historical bootstrapped distributions to identify mispricing opportunities

Key Functions:

`black_scholes_call(S, K, T, r, sigma)` & `black_scholes_put(S, K, T, r, sigma)`

Price European call and put options using Black-Scholes model

Example:

from myPortfolioManagement.myOptionPricing import black_scholes_call, black_scholes_put

S = 100  # Current stock price
K = 100  # Strike price
T = 1.0  # Time to expiration (years)
r = 0.05  # Risk-free rate
sigma = 0.25  # Volatility

call_price = black_scholes_call(S, K, T, r, sigma)
put_price = black_scholes_put(S, K, T, r, sigma)

`implied_volatility(option_price, S, K, T, r, option_type='call')`

Calculate implied volatility from option market price

Example:

from myPortfolioManagement.myOptionPricing import implied_volatility

iv = implied_volatility(option_price=10.45, S=100, K=100, T=1.0, r=0.05)
print(f"Implied Volatility: {iv:.2%}")

`create_option_chain(S, T, r, sigma, strike_range=(0.7, 1.3), num_strikes=20)`

Create synthetic option chain for assets without traded options

Example:

from myPortfolioManagement.myOptionPricing import create_option_chain

# Create synthetic options for any asset
option_chain = create_option_chain(
    S=100,
    T=5.0,  # 5-year horizon
    r=0.05,
    sigma=0.25,
    strike_range=(0.6, 1.4),
    num_strikes=30
)

`extract_implied_distribution(option_chain, S, r, T)`

Extract implied probability distribution using Breeden-Litzenberger formula

Example:

from myPortfolioManagement.myImpliedDistribution import extract_implied_distribution

implied_dist = extract_implied_distribution(
    option_chain=option_chain,
    S=100,
    r=0.05,
    T=5.0,
    option_type='call'
)
# Returns DataFrame with 'price_level' and 'probability_density'

`bootstrap_future_distribution(returns, S0, T, n_sim=10000)`

Bootstrap future price distribution from historical returns

Example:

from myPortfolioManagement.myImpliedDistribution import bootstrap_future_distribution

bootstrap_dist = bootstrap_future_distribution(
    returns=historical_returns,
    S0=100,
    T=5.0,
    n_sim=10000,
    bootstrap_method='iid'
)

`compare_distributions(implied_dist, bootstrap_dist, S0)`

Compare implied and bootstrapped distributions to find insights

Example:

from myPortfolioManagement.myImpliedDistribution import compare_distributions

comparison = compare_distributions(
    implied_dist=implied_dist,
    bootstrap_dist=bootstrap_dist,
    S0=100
)
# Shows quantile differences and percentage deviations

`find_mispricing_opportunities(comparison, threshold_pct=10.0)`

Identify potential mispricing opportunities

Example:

from myPortfolioManagement.myImpliedDistribution import find_mispricing_opportunities

mispricings = find_mispricing_opportunities(comparison, threshold_pct=5.0)
# Returns opportunities where implied differs significantly from bootstrap

`plot_distribution_comparison(implied_dist, bootstrap_dist, S0)`

Visualize comparison between distributions

Example:

from myPortfolioManagement.myImpliedDistribution import plot_distribution_comparison

fig = plot_distribution_comparison(
    implied_dist=implied_dist,
    bootstrap_dist=bootstrap_dist,
    S0=100,
    title="5-Year Price Distribution Comparison",
    save_path='distribution_comparison.png'
)

Complete Workflow Example:

# 1. Get historical data
from myPortfolioManagement.myData import get_stock_prices
from myPortfolioManagement.myReturns import calculate_returns

prices = get_stock_prices(['AAPL'], start_date='2019-01-01', wide_format=True)
returns = calculate_returns(prices).squeeze()
S0 = prices.iloc[-1, 0]

# 2. Create option chain (for assets without traded options)
from myPortfolioManagement.myOptionPricing import create_option_chain

historical_vol = returns.std() * np.sqrt(252)
option_chain = create_option_chain(S0, T=5.0, r=0.05, sigma=historical_vol)

# 3. Extract implied distribution
from myPortfolioManagement.myImpliedDistribution import (
    extract_implied_distribution,
    bootstrap_future_distribution,
    compare_distributions,
    find_mispricing_opportunities,
    plot_distribution_comparison
)

implied_dist = extract_implied_distribution(option_chain, S0, 0.05, 5.0)

# 4. Create bootstrap distribution
bootstrap_dist = bootstrap_future_distribution(returns, S0, 5.0, n_sim=10000)

# 5. Compare and find opportunities
comparison = compare_distributions(implied_dist, bootstrap_dist, S0)
mispricings = find_mispricing_opportunities(comparison, threshold_pct=5.0)

# 6. Visualize
plot_distribution_comparison(implied_dist, bootstrap_dist, S0)

Use Cases:

Asset Allocation: Compare forward-looking (implied) vs historical expectations
Options Trading: Identify over/underpriced options relative to historical patterns
Risk Management: Assess tail risk differences between distributions
Market Sentiment Analysis: Gauge market expectations vs historical norms
Mispricing Detection: Find assets where options imply significantly different futures

Troubleshooting

Common Installation Issues

Issue 1: NumPy Version Conflicts

Error:

ERROR: cesium 0.12.4 requires numpy<3.0,>=2.0, but you have numpy 1.26.4

Solution:

# Uninstall old NumPy
pip uninstall numpy -y

# Install NumPy 2.x
pip install "numpy>=2.0.0"

# Reinstall requirements
pip install -r requirements.txt

Issue 2: CUDA/CuPy Version Mismatch

Error:

CuPy failed to load libnvrtc.so.11.2: cannot open shared object file

Solution:

Check your CUDA version:

nvcc --version
# Or on Kaggle/Colab:
!nvcc --version

Install matching CuPy:

# For CUDA 12.x (Kaggle, most Colab, modern GPUs)
pip uninstall cupy cupy-cuda11x cupy-cuda12x -y
pip install cupy-cuda12x

# For CUDA 11.x
pip install cupy-cuda11x

# For CUDA 11.2 specifically
pip install cupy-cuda112

Verify installation:

import cupy as cp
print(f"CuPy version: {cp.__version__}")
print(f"CUDA version: {cp.cuda.runtime.runtimeGetVersion()}")

Issue 3: GPU Not Detected

Error:

CuPy is available but GPU not detected

Solution:

# Diagnostic script
import subprocess
import sys

print("GPU Diagnostic:")
print("="*50)

# Check NVIDIA driver
try:
    result = subprocess.run(['nvidia-smi'], capture_output=True, text=True)
    print(result.stdout)
except:
    print("✗ nvidia-smi not found - GPU driver may not be installed")
    
# Check CUDA
try:
    result = subprocess.run(['nvcc', '--version'], capture_output=True, text=True)
    print(result.stdout)
except:
    print("✗ CUDA toolkit not found")

# Check CuPy
try:
    import cupy as cp
    print(f"✓ CuPy installed: {cp.__version__}")
    device_count = cp.cuda.runtime.getDeviceCount()
    print(f"✓ GPUs detected: {device_count}")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"✗ CuPy error: {e}")

On Kaggle/Colab:

Make sure GPU is enabled in settings
Kaggle: Session options → Accelerator → GPU T4 x2
Colab: Runtime → Change runtime type → GPU

Issue 4: Bootstrap Returns All NaN

Error: All metrics return NaN values

Solution:

# Clean data before passing to bootstrap
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

# Remove NaN values
portfolio_clean = portfolio_returns.squeeze().dropna()
benchmark_clean = benchmark_returns.squeeze().dropna()

# Find common date range
common_start = max(portfolio_clean.index[0], benchmark_clean.index[0])
common_end = min(portfolio_clean.index[-1], benchmark_clean.index[-1])

# Filter to common range
portfolio_clean = portfolio_clean[
    (portfolio_clean.index >= common_start) & 
    (portfolio_clean.index <= common_end)
]
benchmark_clean = benchmark_clean[
    (benchmark_clean.index >= common_start) & 
    (benchmark_clean.index <= common_end)
]

# Align using inner join
df_aligned = pd.DataFrame({
    'portfolio': portfolio_clean,
    'benchmark': benchmark_clean
}).dropna()

# Verify no NaN values
print(f"Portfolio NaN count: {df_aligned['portfolio'].isna().sum()}")
print(f"Benchmark NaN count: {df_aligned['benchmark'].isna().sum()}")

# Use cleaned data
means, dist, stats = bootstrap_portfolio_performance(
    returns=df_aligned['portfolio'],
    returns_benchmark=df_aligned['benchmark'],
    n_sim=5000,
    use_gpu=True
)

Issue 5: "Too many indexers" Error

Error:

pandas.errors.IndexingError: Too many indexers

Solution:

The GPU module expects Series, not DataFrame:

# Convert DataFrame to Series if needed
if isinstance(returns, pd.DataFrame):
    if returns.shape[1] == 1:
        returns = returns.squeeze()  # Single column
    else:
        returns = returns.mean(axis=1)  # Or select specific column

# Now it will work
means, dist, stats = bootstrap_portfolio_performance(
    returns=returns,  # Now a Series
    n_sim=5000
)

Issue 6: Slow Performance Despite GPU

Problem: GPU seems slow or not faster than CPU

Solutions:

Check if GPU is actually being used:

import cupy as cp
from myPortfolioManagement.myBacktesting import GPU_AVAILABLE

print(f"GPU Available: {GPU_AVAILABLE}")

# Monitor GPU during execution
# In another terminal run: watch -n 1 nvidia-smi

Ensure enough simulations:

# GPU has overhead - needs many simulations to show benefit
# Too few simulations: CPU might be faster
n_sim = 100  # GPU overhead dominates - CPU faster
n_sim = 5000  # GPU shines - 15-20x faster

Check data size:

# Very short time series don't benefit from GPU
print(f"Time series length: {len(returns)}")
# Optimal: 500+ observations

Use CPU optimization for small jobs:

# For quick analyses, CPU optimization is better
if n_sim < 1000:
    use_gpu = False  # Avoid GPU overhead
else:
    use_gpu = True  # GPU advantage kicks in

Issue 7: Memory Errors on GPU

Error:

CuPy: Out of memory

Solution:

import cupy as cp

# 1. Clear GPU memory before large operations
cp.get_default_memory_pool().free_all_blocks()
cp.get_default_pinned_memory_pool().free_all_blocks()

# 2. Reduce simulation count
n_sim = 10000  # Reduce if getting memory errors

# 3. Check available GPU memory
mempool = cp.get_default_memory_pool()
print(f"GPU Memory: {mempool.used_bytes() / 1024**3:.2f} GB used")
print(f"GPU Total: {cp.cuda.Device().mem_info[1] / 1024**3:.2f} GB")

# 4. Fall back to CPU for very large simulations
try:
    means, dist, stats = bootstrap_portfolio_performance(
        returns=returns,
        n_sim=20000,
        use_gpu=True
    )
except cp.cuda.memory.OutOfMemoryError:

        use_gpu=False
    )

Issue 8: Joblib Warnings on Kaggle

Warning:

UserWarning: Could not find the number of physical cores

Solution:

This is harmless but can be suppressed:

import warnings
warnings.filterwarnings('ignore', category=UserWarning)

# Or set n_jobs explicitly
means, dist, stats = bootstrap_portfolio_performance(
    returns=returns,
    n_sim=5000,
    n_jobs=4  # Explicit core count (Kaggle has 4 vCPUs)
)
