description

Investment management skill — portfolio construction, analysis, and execution. Compounds finance-substrate (accounting/tax) + wealth-management (projections/goals) into a full financial framework. Covers traditional investing (stocks, ETFs, bonds), alternatives (crypto, prediction markets, real estate, VC), quantitative analytics (factor models, Monte Carlo, optimization), and platform integration (Alpaca, Coinbase, Polymarket, agent-browser for Colombian platforms). Embodies philosophies from Buffett, Dalio, Bogle, Munger, and Marks. Use when: (1) building or analyzing a portfolio, (2) screening stocks/ETFs/crypto, (3) running backtests or factor analysis, (4) executing trades or rebalancing, (5) tracking investments across platforms, (6) researching market data or fundamentals, (7) making investment decisions with structured frameworks. Triggers on 'investment', 'portfolio', 'stocks', 'ETF', 'bonds', 'crypto', 'trading', 'backtest', 'factor model', 'rebalance', 'Polymarket', 'Alpaca', 'asset allocation'.

Investment Philosophies (Built-in Frameworks)

The skill embeds decision frameworks from legendary investors. Each philosophy is a scoring lens that can be applied to any investment.

Value (Buffett/Graham/Munger)

Principle	Implementation
Economic moat analysis	Score competitive advantage: brand, network, switching cost, scale
Margin of safety	Require 25%+ discount to intrinsic value (DCF, owner earnings)
Circle of competence	Flag unfamiliar sectors; require deeper research threshold
Owner earnings	Net income + depreciation - capex (not GAAP earnings)
Quality over price	ROIC > WACC, consistent ROE > 15%, low debt/equity

Systematic (Dalio/AQR)

Principle	Implementation
All-Weather allocation	Risk-parity: equal risk contribution from growth, inflation, deflation
Factor exposure	Decompose returns into market, value, momentum, quality, size
Risk parity	Weight by inverse volatility, target equal risk contribution
Regime awareness	Detect growth/inflation quadrant, adjust allocation
Correlation regime	Monitor rolling correlations; diversification fails in crises

Passive/Index (Bogle)

Principle	Implementation
Three-fund portfolio	Total market + international + bonds; rebalance annually
Minimize costs	Flag any fund with expense ratio > 0.20%
Tax efficiency	Index funds in taxable, bonds in tax-deferred
Stay the course	Reject market timing; dollar-cost average
Simple beats complex	Baseline comparison for every active strategy

Second-Level Thinking (Marks)

Principle	Implementation
Consensus vs reality	Flag positions where market consensus is priced in
Risk is not volatility	Focus on permanent capital loss, not price fluctuation
Market cycles	Track Shiller CAPE, yield spreads, sentiment indicators
Asymmetric outcomes	Seek situations where upside >> downside
Know what you don't know	Confidence-weighted recommendations

Barbell (Taleb)

Principle	Implementation
85% ultra-safe + 15% high-convexity	Split portfolio into safe (CDTs, treasuries) + optionality (crypto, VC, prediction markets)
Antifragile positions	Identify investments that benefit from volatility
Avoid the middle	Skip mediocre risk-return profiles
Small bets, big payoffs	Position size by max loss tolerance, not expected return

Skill Modes

1. screen — Security Screening

Search and filter stocks, ETFs, crypto, and other securities by criteria.

Script: scripts/screener.py

Screening criteria:

• Fundamental: P/E, P/B, EV/EBITDA, FCF yield, ROIC, ROE, debt/equity, dividend yield
• Technical: RSI, MACD signal, price vs 200-day MA, 52-week range position
• Quality: earnings consistency, revenue growth, margin stability
• Momentum: 1/3/6/12-month returns, relative strength
• Value composite: Piotroski F-Score, Greenblatt Magic Formula rank
• Size: market cap filters

Data sources: yfinance, Financial Modeling Prep, OpenBB

2. research — Deep Investment Research

In-depth analysis of a specific security or market.

Script: scripts/research.py

Analysis includes:

• Company overview and business model
• Financial statement analysis (3-5 year trends)
• Valuation: DCF, comparable companies, dividend discount
• Competitive landscape and moat assessment
• Risk factors and bear case
• Catalyst identification
• Philosophy alignment score (which frameworks support/oppose)

Data sources: yfinance fundamentals, SEC EDGAR (edgartools), news sentiment (FinBERT)

3. factor — Factor Analysis

Decompose portfolio returns into systematic factor exposures.

Script: scripts/factor_analysis.py

Factors analyzed:

• Fama-French 5 factors: Market, Size (SMB), Value (HML), Profitability (RMW), Investment (CMA)
• Momentum (UMD)
• Quality (QMJ from AQR)
• Alpha: residual return not explained by factors

Output: Factor loadings, R², alpha significance, factor exposure drift over time

4. backtest — Strategy Backtesting

Test investment strategies against historical data.

Script: scripts/backtest.py

Built-in strategies:

• Buy and hold (benchmark)
• Equal-weight rebalanced
• Risk parity (inverse vol)
• Momentum (top N by 12-1 month return)
• Value (top N by composite score)
• All-Weather (Dalio's 4-quadrant allocation)
• Custom (user-defined rules)

Metrics: CAGR, Sharpe, Sortino, max drawdown, Calmar, win rate, average gain/loss

5. optimize — Portfolio Optimization

Find optimal portfolio weights given constraints.

Script: scripts/portfolio_optimizer.py

Methods:

• Mean-variance (Markowitz efficient frontier)
• Black-Litterman (market equilibrium + personal views)
• Hierarchical Risk Parity (HRP, no covariance inversion)
• Risk budgeting (equal risk contribution)
• Maximum Sharpe, minimum volatility, target return
• CVaR optimization (tail-risk aware)

Constraints: Long-only, sector limits, position size caps, turnover limits, tax-awareness

Libraries: PyPortfolioOpt, Riskfolio-Lib, cvxpy

6. risk — Risk Analysis

Comprehensive risk assessment of current or proposed portfolio.

Script: scripts/risk_analysis.py

Metrics:

• Value at Risk (parametric, historical, Monte Carlo)
• Conditional VaR (Expected Shortfall)
• Maximum drawdown analysis
• Stress tests: 2008 GFC, 2020 COVID, 2022 rates, COP devaluation
• Correlation regime analysis (rolling correlations)
• GARCH volatility forecast
• Concentration risk and single-name exposure

7. trade — Trade Execution

Execute trades via supported platform APIs.

Script: scripts/trade.py

Supported platforms:

Features:

• Paper trading mode (default) — no real money until explicitly confirmed
• Order types: market, limit, stop-loss
• Position sizing: Kelly criterion, fixed fractional, risk-budget
• Pre-trade checks: liquidity, spread, portfolio impact

8. track — Multi-Platform Position Tracking

Aggregate positions across all investment platforms.

Script: scripts/tracker.py

Sources (in priority order):

1. API-connected platforms (Alpaca, Coinbase) — real-time
2. finance-substrate certificates (Skandia, Davivienda, etc.) — periodic
3. Browser-automated platforms (Tyba, Trii, Davivienda Corredores) — via agent-browser
4. Manual entries (portfolio.json) — user-maintained

Output: Unified position list with cost basis, current value, unrealized gain/loss, allocation %

9. rebalance — Intelligent Rebalancing

Generate and optionally execute rebalancing trades.

Script: scripts/rebalancer.py

Rebalancing modes:

• Cash-flow (direct new contributions to underweight positions)
• Threshold (trigger when drift exceeds band)
• Tax-aware (prefer loss-harvesting sells, defer gains)
• Calendar (monthly/quarterly/annual schedule)

Tax-loss harvesting:

• Scan for positions with unrealized losses
• Identify replacement securities (correlated but not identical)
• Track wash sale windows (30 days US; no equivalent in Colombia)

Script: scripts/scorer.py

Scoring dimensions:

• Value score (Graham/Buffett): P/E, P/B, FCF yield, moat rating
• Quality score (Munger): ROIC, margin stability, debt discipline
• Momentum score: price momentum, earnings momentum, analyst revisions
• Risk score (Marks): downside volatility, max drawdown, tail risk

Autonomous decision plane — services/tradingview-bridge

A self-contained, paper-only, human-gated trading control system: a webhook receiver + multi-broker executor, plus a closed self-improving loop — research (walk-forward + anti-overfit scoring), optimize (EGRI param search with a true train/test holdout), and roster (human-gated promotion of optimized params into the roster the orchestrator measures). Drives TradingView's Paper simulator via the Interceptor CLI (no inbound API), or runs the entire decision loop on synthetic/CSV bars with no browser or broker. It measures and recommends — it never moves live capital on its own.

Compound: Autoany Integration (EGRI)

This skill is EGRI-aware. When a user's request implies iterative optimization or strategy search, the agent should scaffold a problem-spec from the templates below and delegate to /autoany for autonomous improvement.

Optimization Triggers

Invoke /autoany when the user asks to:

• "Optimize" — allocation, weights, strategy parameters
• "Find the best" — strategy, allocation, screening criteria
• "Compare strategies" — systematic comparison across N variants
• "Backtest variations" — test parameter sweeps
• "What if I changed" — sensitivity analysis via mutations
• "Stress test" — combined with optimization intent

EGRI Problem-Spec Templates

Template	Artifact	Evaluator	Score	Use When
strategy-optimization	strategy.yaml (weights, rules)	backtest.py --egri	Sharpe ratio	Optimizing portfolio allocation
screen-evolution	screen_criteria.yaml (thresholds)	screener.py + eval_screen.py	Forward return	Evolving stock selection criteria

Templates are at templates/egri/. The strategy artifact schema is at templates/egri/strategy-artifact.yaml.

Delegation Flow

1. User request → agent detects optimization intent
2. Load personal context from finance-substrate (patrimonio, salary, TRM)
3. Pull historical market data (market_data.py)
4. Scaffold problem-spec from template, fill in:
   - Starting allocation as baseline artifact
   - Period, constraints from policy.yaml
   - Goal metrics from user's request
5. Invoke /autoany with scaffolded problem-spec
6. EGRI loop runs: Proposer → Executor (backtest.py) → Evaluator → Selector
7. Return promoted strategy + ledger summary to user
8. Log results for cross-session strategy inheritance (autoany-lago)

EGRI Evaluator Bridge

scripts/eval_backtest.py wraps backtest.py for use as an EGRI evaluator:

• Takes a strategy YAML artifact + period
• Returns structured Outcome (score, constraints_passed, violations)
• Applies constraint expressions from the problem-spec
• Can be used standalone: python3 eval_backtest.py --strategy-file strategy.yaml --period 10y

Safety Constraints (enforced in EGRI loops)

• EGRI loops over historical data are autonomous (sandbox mode)
• EGRI loops that propose live trades require human gate (HumanGate selector)
• Max drawdown constraint: -15% (from policy S6)
• Position concentration: <= 25% (from policy S2)
• Budget: 50 trials max, 1 hour total
• All trials logged to ledger for audit and cross-run inheritance

Dependencies

• Python 3.10+
• finance-substrate skill (accounting, tax, certificates)
• wealth-management skill (projections, goals, portfolio summary)
• autoany (optional, for EGRI optimization loops)
• Market data: yfinance, fredapi, pycoingecko (free)
• Optimization: pypfopt, riskfolio-lib, cvxpy (optional, for advanced modes)
• Trading: alpaca-trade-api, coinbase-advanced-py (optional, for execution)
• Technical: pandas-ta, arch (optional, for quantitative modes)
• No paid services required. All data stays local.
