Hi all, I've been searching for an example on how to do this, but haven't found anything. I've written 2 separate algorithms that perform well individually. I have reason to believe they are non-correlated and if ran simultaneously on a single Portfolio (ie, 50% of equity to Algo A, 50% of equity to Algo B), I believe the overall performance would be better than either individually. I'd like to backtest this hypothesis. Any advice or sample code?
Thanks,
Chetan

Hi Chetan,
For example code of running multiple strategies in a single algorithm, see the InternFund algorithms.
Best,

Hi Patrick, I see no issue here, the Security Identifier EY R735QTJ8XC9X refers to NewMarket Corp., and its actual ticker is NEU
Similarly, MNES R735QTJ8XC9X refers to Mine Safety Appliances Co., and its actual ticker is MSA.
Just a little of context, our Security identifier doesn't change with changes in the security's ticker.
The Security identifier two parts needed to identify any security.
<TICKER>-<Base36Code>
The TICKER is the first ticker the security has when listed.
The Base36Code, or equities it only encodes the Market (USA) and the listing date (starting from 1998-01-02)
For complex securities like options, it also encodes expiry dates, strike prices, etc.
