# algorithmic-trading A skill for building trading systems: strategy development, backtesting, execution algorithms and market microstructure. - skill · `type=skill` · Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenCode · 529 installs · ★ 183 - Author: omer-metin - License: Apache-2.0 · policy=mirror · the beginning of the file is at the end of this page - Source: https://github.com/omer-metin/skills-for-antigravity/tree/HEAD/skills/algorithmic-trading/SKILL.md - Updated: 2026-01-22 - HTML: https://affpapa.org/en/nevibecode/skills/algorithmic-trading ## What it does The skill kicks in when you write a trading system, backtest a strategy, or dig into why order execution misbehaves. It grounds every answer in three reference files and treats them as the source of truth for the domain. For creation, the agent consults `references/patterns.md`, which dictates how things should be built — generic approaches get dropped when a specific pattern exists there. For diagnosis it reads `references/sharp_edges.md`, a list of critical failures and why they happen, so it can explain the risk to you. For review it uses `references/validations.md`, the strict rules it validates your inputs against. If your request conflicts with those files, the skill corrects you and points at the reference. Worth installing if you already work with trading logic and want the agent to follow fixed patterns instead of inventing them. The three reference files are the content here — without them in your project there is nothing for the skill to lean on. ## Install ### Claude Code (native platform) 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add omer-metin/skills-for-antigravity --skill algorithmic-trading -a claude-code ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `~/.claude/skills/algorithmic-trading/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/algorithmic-trading/ ### Codex 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add omer-metin/skills-for-antigravity --skill algorithmic-trading -a codex ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.agents/skills/algorithmic-trading/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/ ### Cursor 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add omer-metin/skills-for-antigravity --skill algorithmic-trading -a cursor ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.cursor/skills/algorithmic-trading/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/ ### GitHub Copilot 1. **GitHub CLI** ```bash gh skill install omer-metin/skills-for-antigravity algorithmic-trading ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.github/skills/algorithmic-trading/SKILL.md` ### Gemini CLI 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add omer-metin/skills-for-antigravity --skill algorithmic-trading -a gemini-cli ``` 2. **Platform CLI** ```bash gemini skills install https://github.com/omer-metin/skills-for-antigravity --path skills/algorithmic-trading ``` ### Windsurf (Devin Desktop) **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.devin/skills/algorithmic-trading/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works ### OpenCode **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add omer-metin/skills-for-antigravity --skill algorithmic-trading -a opencode ``` ### Claude.ai **Claude.ai** - Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/omer-metin/skills-for-antigravity/tree/HEAD/skills/algorithmic-trading/SKILL.md ## When to use it - scaffold a trading strategy from an existing pattern - run a backtest and find where it lies - trace why an order execution failed - validate strategy inputs against strict rules - assess risk before pushing a system to production ## Example prompts - Help me design a trading strategy — start from `references/patterns.md` - My backtest keeps failing, walk through `references/sharp_edges.md` and tell me what breaks - Check my strategy parameters against `references/validations.md` ## Source text · SKILL.md · Apache-2.0 Below is the content of a third-party file.

This file dictates *how* things should be built. Ignore generic approaches if a specific pattern exists here. * **For Diagnosis:** Always consult **`references/sharp_edges.md`**. This file lists the critical failures and "why" they happen. Use it to explain risks to the user. * **For Review:** Always consult **`references/validations.md`**. This contains the strict rules and constraints. Use it to validate user inputs objectively. **Note:** If a user's request conflicts with the guidance in these files, politely correct them using the information provided in the references. ``` END THIRD-PARTY FILE b88088e20ba40b74 The third-party file has ended.
