EasyXT is a comprehensive quantitative trading toolkit for Chinese A-share markets, built on top of the Xuntou QMT broker platform. It provides a modular ecosystem that includes data management (multi-source with automatic fallback via DuckDB, Tushare, BaoStock, QMT DAT files, etc.), factor research (Alpha101/Alpha191 engines, IC/IR analysis, layered backtesting, Fama-French factors), backtesting engines (vectorized and event-driven with T+1 enforcement), live trading capabilities (auto-login, signal bridges, real-time quote providers, WebSocket push, monitoring), and multiple strategy implementations (grid trading, small-cap, convertible bonds, Xueqiu portfolio following). The system also features a PyQt5 desktop GUI and a Streamlit web app for factor analysis and strategy configuration. While primarily an application framework for executing trading strategies, it contains significant data research components for alpha factor development and performance analysis, making it a hybrid tool with a focus on production deployment. The codebase is large and actively maintained, with well-designed abstractions like data source adapters, cache backends, and a config manager, but also exhibits some duplication, hardcoded paths, and mixed Chinese/English naming that may hinder portability.
This repository is a comprehensive knowledge base and research platform for quantitative finance, primarily focused on Chinese A-share markets. It contains hundreds of blog posts, course materials, and technical articles covering factor investing, machine learning strategies, backtesting frameworks, and data engineering. The codebase includes reusable data pipelines (ParquetUnifiedStorage, CalendarModel), a custom backtesting framework (Moonshot), and numerous factor analysis scripts. It also hosts a sophisticated set of AI-assisted academic research skills (paper writing, review, deep research) defined as Claude skill files. The repository serves as both an educational resource and a personal research lab, with content spanning from beginner Python tutorials to advanced factor construction and model training. While the code is functional and demonstrates solid data engineering patterns, it is tightly coupled to Chinese financial data APIs (Tushare, akshare) and contains hardcoded paths, limiting portability. The repository is actively maintained but shows signs of technical drift in some dependencies and content duplication.
