Gaius.jl is a multi-threaded BLAS-like library using a divide-and-conquer strategy to parallelism, and built on top of the fantastic LoopVectorization.jl. Gaius spawns threads using Julia's depth-first parallel task runtime and so Gaius's routines may be fearlessly nested inside multi-threaded Julia programs. Gaius is not stable or well-tested. Only use it if you're adventurous.

Transducers are transformations of "sequence" of input that can be composed very efficiently. The interface used by transducers naturally describes a wide range of processes that is expressible as a succession of steps. Furthermore, transducers can be defined without specifying the details of the input and output (collections, streams, channels, etc.) and therefore achieves a full reusability. Transducers are introduced by Rich Hickey, the creator of the Clojure language. His Strange Loop...

Strategems is a Julia package aimed at simplifying and streamlining the process of developing, testing, and optimizing algorithmic/systematic trading strategies. This package is inspired in large part by the quantstrat1,2 package in R, adopting a similar general structure to the building blocks that make up a strategy. 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.
