Quantitative systematic trading strategy development and backtesting
...Given the highly iterative nature of event-driven trading strategy development, Julia's high-performance design (particularly in the context of loops) and straightforward syntax would seem to make it a natural fit as a language for systematic strategy research and development. While this package remains early in development, with time the hope is to be able to rapidly implement a trading idea, construct a historical backtest, analyze its results, optimize over a given parameter set, and visualize all of this with great detail.
