});

Basic Portfolio Analysis

import * as qs from 'quantstats-js';

// Convert prices to returns
const prices = [100, 102, 101, 105, 103, 108, 106, 112];
const returns = qs.utils.toReturns(prices);

// Calculate comprehensive metrics (simple array format)
const metrics = qs.reports.metrics(returns);

console.log('Portfolio Analysis:', {
  totalReturn: `${(metrics.totalReturn * 100).toFixed(2)}%`,
  cagr: `${(metrics.cagr * 100).toFixed(2)}%`,
  sharpe: metrics.sharpe.toFixed(2),
  maxDrawdown: `${(metrics.maxDrawdown * 100).toFixed(2)}%`,
  winRate: `${(metrics.winRate * 100).toFixed(2)}%`
});

Risk Analysis

// Risk metrics
const var95 = qs.stats.valueAtRisk(returns, 0.05);
const cvar95 = qs.stats.cvar(returns, 0.05);
const skewness = qs.stats.skew(returns);
const kurtosis = qs.stats.kurtosis(returns);

console.log('Risk Analysis:', {
  var95: `${(var95 * 100).toFixed(2)}%`,
  cvar95: `${(cvar95 * 100).toFixed(2)}%`,
  skewness: skewness.toFixed(2),
  kurtosis: kurtosis.toFixed(2)
});

Generate HTML Report

// Create comprehensive HTML report
const htmlReport = qs.reports.basic(
  returns,
  'My Portfolio Analysis'
);

// Save to file (Node.js)
import fs from 'fs';
fs.writeFileSync('portfolio_report.html', htmlReport);

Visualization Data

// Generate data for charts
const plotData = qs.plots.dashboard(returns);

// Equity curve data
const equityCurve = plotData.equityCurve;
console.log('Equity curve data points:', equityCurve.data.length);

// Drawdown data
const drawdown = plotData.drawdown;
console.log('Max drawdown:', Math.min(...drawdown.data));

// Monthly returns heatmap
const heatmap = plotData.monthlyHeatmap;
console.log('Monthly data:', heatmap.data.length);

📊 Data Formats

For Complete Tearsheets (Recommended)

// Returns with dates (required for time-series analysis)
const returnsData = {
  values: [0.01, -0.005, 0.02, -0.01, 0.015], // Daily returns array
  index: [Date1, Date2, Date3, Date4, Date5]   // Corresponding dates
};

// Generate professional tearsheet
const tearsheet = qs.reports.basic(returnsData, null, 'My Strategy');

For Basic Calculations

// Simple array format (for basic metrics only)
const returns = [0.01, -0.005, 0.02, -0.01, 0.015];

// Calculate basic metrics
const metrics = qs.reports.metrics(returns);
const sharpe = qs.stats.sharpe(returns);

📅 Date Handling

// Create date array from start date
const createDateRange = (startDate, numDays) => {
  return Array.from({length: numDays}, (_, i) => {
    const date = new Date(startDate);
    date.setDate(date.getDate() + i);
    return date;
  });
};

// Example usage
const dates = createDateRange(new Date('2023-01-01'), returns.length);
const returnsData = { values: returns, index: dates };

📈 Mathematical Accuracy

All calculations in QuantStats.js are mathematically identical to the Python QuantStats library:

• Sharpe Ratio: (mean_return * √252) / (std_return * √252)
• Sortino Ratio: (mean_return * √252) / (downside_std * √252)
• CAGR: (ending_value / beginning_value) ^ (1/years) - 1
• Maximum Drawdown: min(cumulative_returns / running_max - 1)
• Value at Risk: percentile(returns, confidence_level)

Performance Optimizations

QuantStats.js is optimized for performance:

1. Efficient Algorithms: Uses optimized mathematical calculations
2. Minimal Memory Usage: Streaming calculations where possible
3. Fast Array Operations: Leverages JavaScript's native array methods
4. Lazy Evaluation: Calculations only performed when needed
5. Caching: Results cached for repeated calculations

v1.3.0

🎉 Complete Python Compatibility - Now 100% structurally identical to Python QuantStats!

• Fixed Drawdown Details: Now returns detailed period-by-period data like Python (not summary stats)
• Added Missing Functions: All Python functions now implemented (omega, informationRatio, greeks, etc.)
• Enhanced Utility Functions: Added toPrices, toLogReturns, toExcessReturns, rebase, exponentialStdev
• Complete Function Parity: Added outliers, removeOutliers, best, worst, consecutiveWins, consecutiveLosses, exposure, etc.
• Data Structure Compatibility: All return formats now match Python's DataFrame/Series structures exactly
• Smart Ratios: Added smartSharpe, smartSortino with autocorrelation penalty

Breaking Changes:

• drawdownDetails() now returns array of period objects instead of summary statistics
• All functions now have identical signatures and return formats as Python QuantStats
• Function names match Python exactly (camelCase to match JavaScript conventions)

v1.2.0

🎉 Major Accuracy Improvements - Now 100% mathematically compatible with Python QuantStats!

• Fixed CAGR Calculation: Now uses calendar days method (like Python) instead of trading days
• Enhanced Max Drawdown: Uses expanding maximum method matching Python's implementation exactly
• Improved Time Handling: Added optional dates parameter for precise time period calculations
• Mathematical Precision: All statistical functions now use sample standard deviation (ddof=1) like Python
• Formula Alignment: All calculations now match Python QuantStats formulas exactly

Breaking Changes:

• CAGR calculations may differ slightly from v1.1.0 due to improved accuracy
• Max drawdown calculations now use price-based method (more accurate)
• For exact backward compatibility, use trading days method: cagr(returns) (no dates)
