ML Strategy

XGB 5-SEED · 78 FEAT · 5D HOLD
About this strategy — what it is, what it looks for, how it operates

A gradient-boosted machine-learning ensemble. Five XGBoost models (different random seeds) each predict a stock's 10-day forward return relative to the cross-sectional median; their rank-averaged output drives the picks.

  • Looks for~89 features — technicals, options flow, volatility term structure, sector relative strength and earnings proximity — combined by the trees
  • Universethe top ~300 US stocks by options volume
  • Operateslongs the 10 highest-ranked names, shorts the 10 lowest, each day; 5-trading-day hold; walk-forward retrained
  • Regime gateopens new positions only in risk-on conditions
