AlphaGen is a Python research library that automatically generates formulaic alpha (predictive) stock factors using reinforcement learning, with optional LLM-based generation routines. It integrates with Microsoft Qlib for stock data preparation and supports adapters for custom alpha calculation pipelines.

Use cases

  • generate predictive stock factors with reinforcement learning
  • mine formulaic alphas for quantitative trading strategies
  • use LLMs to iteratively generate alpha expressions
  • reproduce KDD 2023 alpha generation paper experiments
  • integrate custom alpha calculation pipelines via adapters
  • run symbolic regression on stock market data

When to choose

  • you need automated formulaic alpha mining for quant research
  • you already use Qlib and want RL-based factor generation
  • you want to experiment with LLM-driven alpha generation

When to avoid

  • you need production-ready trading infrastructure with execution and risk management
  • you require a maintained, licensed dependency for commercial use (no license is specified)
  • you need US/global market data out of the box (built-in pipeline targets Chinese A-shares via baostock)
