导读

投资标的:SPY、BIL。再平衡:每月。Universe: SPY, BIL. Parameters: rebalance=monthly.

策略概要

该策略投资于标普500指数,在每年每个月的16日买入并持有该指数。

经济逻辑

其机制很可能与发薪密切相关。员工通常在月末领薪,许多人会通过退休缴费自动把一部分工资投入市场,或因新工资带来资金盈余而买入。许多公司每月发薪两次,分别在15日和月末。因此,若月末效应成立,月中也应出现类似模式,因为员工每次发薪都会做退休缴费。结果确认月中确实存在异常收益。研究显示,每月16日不仅整体是当月第三好的交易日,而且自1950年代以来每个十年排名都单调上升,直到最近的2010年代。尽管越来越多企业改为双周发薪,平均时薪最高的仍是半月发薪,其次才是月薪,这有利于该策略,因此效应不应轻易消失。另一种可能是,其他发薪日异象已被文献充分讨论,实践者争相利用后市场效率赶上、效应减弱。因此这一较新异象相对其他日期仍有较强表现,至少尚未被交易掉。

入场与出场

入场

每月由 make_on_day 决定目标权重。当前宇宙:SPY, BIL。请对照实验室代码中的 engine.set_target_weights。

出场

权重被设为空或该标的权重为 0 即视为出场。引擎按 5 bps 佣金 + 2 bps 滑点执行。

所需行情数据

需要 SPY, BIL 至少 60 根复权收盘价,才能形成第一个有效信号。ETF 仅交易日有行情。 实验室通过 backtest.data.load_daily_prices 读取 Yahoo Finance。

标的

SPY, BIL

频率

每日 · 日频复权收盘价;信号按月再平衡(用当月最后一个有效交易日)

所需历史

每个标的至少 60 根交易日 K 线(约 3 个交易月),外加数根缓冲才能发出第一个信号。

字段

  • 复权收盘价(Adj Close / auto_adjust Close)
  • 交易日日期索引

凭证

  • 回测与实验室:无需密钥
  • 实盘下单才需要券商 / 交易所 API

Set target weights
Weights should sum to about 1.0. Empty dict = 100% cash.
