## What it is
AKQuant is a high-performance quantitative research and backtesting framework with a Rust core engine and Python interface for strategy development. It provides event-driven backtesting, machine learning integration (walk-forward validation with PyTorch/Scikit-learn), a factor expression engine, and built-in risk management.

## Use cases
- backtest trading strategies on historical stock data
- run walk-forward validation for ML-based trading strategies
- compute Alpha101-style factor expressions with Polars
- optimize strategy parameters with parallel grid search
- backtest multi-asset portfolios with risk controls
- fetch A-share market data via akshare and run backtests
- generate benchmark comparison reports for strategies

## When to choose
- you need fast event-driven backtesting with a Rust-optimized engine
- you want to combine machine learning models with trading strategy backtests
- you work with Chinese A-share market data via akshare
- you need built-in technical indicators, factor computation, and parameter optimization in one framework

## When to avoid
- you need live trading execution against real brokers rather than backtesting
- you require a large community ecosystem like Zipline or Backtrader with extensive third-party examples
- you need asset classes or markets beyond what the framework's data integrations support
