Run hierarchical risk parity algorithms
A recursive implementation of the Hierarchical Risk Parity (hrp) approach
by Marcos Lopez de Prado.
We take heavily advantage of the scipy.cluster.hierarchy package.
Here’s a simple example
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> from pyhrp.hrp import build_tree
>>> from pyhrp.algos import risk_parity
>>> from pyhrp.cluster import Asset
>>> prices = pd.read_csv("src/tests/resources/stock_prices.csv", index_col=0, parse_dates=True)
>>> prices.columns = [Asset(name=column) for column in prices.columns]
>>> returns = prices.pct_change().dropna(axis=0, how="all")
>>> cov, cor = returns.cov(), returns.corr()
# Compute the dendrogram based on the correlation matrix and Ward's metric
>>> dendrogram = build_tree(cor, method='ward')
>>> dendrogram.plot()
# Compute the weights on the dendrogram
>>> root = risk_parity(root=dendrogram.root, cov=cov)
>>> ax = root.portfolio.plot(names=dendrogram.names)
For your convenience you can bypass the construction of the covariance and
correlation matrix, and the construction of the dendrogram.
>>> from pyhrp.hrp import hrp
>>> root = hrp(prices=prices, method="ward", bisection=False)
You may expect a weight series here but instead the hrp
function returns aNode
object. The node
simplifies all further post-analysis.
>>> weights = root.portfolio.weights
>>> variance = root.portfolio.variance(cov)
# You can drill deeper into the tree
>>> left = root.left
>>> right = root.right
Starting with
make install
will install uv and create
the virtual environment defined in
pyproject.toml and locked in uv.lock.
We install marimo on the fly within the aforementioned
virtual environment. Executing
make marimo
will install and start marimo.
