# Pair Trade Screener

## Overview

This skill identifies and analyzes statistical arbitrage opportunities through pair trading. Pair trading is a market-neutral strategy that profits from the relative price movements of two correlated securities, regardless of overall market direction. The skill uses rigorous statistical methods including correlation analysis and cointegration testing to find robust trading pairs.

**Core Methodology:**
- Identify pairs of stocks with high correlation and similar sector/industry exposure
- Test for cointegration (long-term statistical relationship)
- Calculate spread z-scores to identify mean-reversion opportunities
- Generate entry/exit signals based on statistical thresholds
- Provide position sizing for market-neutral exposure

**Key Advantages:**
- Market-neutral: Profits in up, down, or sideways markets
- Risk management: Limited exposure to broad market movements
- Statistical foundation: Data-driven, not discretionary
- Diversification: Uncorrelated to traditional long-only strategies

## When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:
- User asks for "pair trading opportunities"
- User wants "market-neutral strategies"
- User requests "statistical arbitrage screening"
- User asks "which stocks move together?"
- User wants to hedge sector exposure
- User requests mean-reversion trade ideas
- User asks about relative value trading

Example user requests:
- "Find pair trading opportunities in the tech sector"
- "Which stocks are cointegrated?"
- "Screen for statistical arbitrage opportunities"
- "Find mean-reversion pairs"
- "What are good market-neutral trades right now?"

## Analysis Workflow

### Step 1: Define Pair Universe

**Objective:** Establish the pool of stocks to analyze for pair relationships.

**Option A: Sector-Based Screening (Recommended)**

Select a specific sector to screen:
- Technology
- Financials
- Healthcare
- Consumer Discretionary
- Industrials
- Energy
- Materials
- Consumer Staples
- Utilities
- Real Estate
- Communication Services

**Option B: Custom Stock List**

User provides specific tickers to analyze:
```
Example: ["AAPL", "MSFT", "GOOGL", "META", "NVDA"]
```

**Option C: Industry-Specific**

Narrow focus to specific industry within sector:
- Example: "Software" within Technology sector
- Example: "Regional Banks" within Financials

**Filtering Criteria:**
- Minimum market cap: $2B (mid-cap and above)
- Minimum average volume: 1M shares/day (liquidity requirement)
- Active trading: No delisted or inactive stocks
- Same exchange preference: Avoid cross-exchange complications

### Step 2: Retrieve Historical Price Data

**Objective:** Fetch price history for correlation and cointegration analysis.

**Data Requirements:**
- Timeframe: 2 years (minimum 252 trading days)
- Frequency: Daily closing prices
- Adjustments: Adjusted for splits and dividends
- Clean data: No gaps or missing values

**FMP API Endpoint:**
```
GET /v3/historical-price-full/{symbol}?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY
```

**Data Validation:**
- Verify consistent date ranges across all symbols
- Remove stocks with >10% missing data
- Fill minor gaps with forward-fill method
- Log data quality issues

**Script Execution:**
```bash
python scripts/fetch_price_data.py --sector Technology --lookback 730
```

### Step 3: Calculate Correlation and Beta

**Objective:** Identify candidate pairs with strong linear relationships.

**Correlation Analysis:**

For each pair of stocks (i, j) in the
