execution-model

execution-model is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from HKUDS/Vibe-Trading. It costs 41 tokens per session (3,229 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of backtest-only models for estimating trading costs, including slippage, market impact, and delayed execution. Slippage is the difference between the expected price and the simulated fill price; market impact is the price movement caused by a large order.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to make historical trading simulations more realistic with fixed, linear, or square-root impact models and delayed fills. It does not place live orders.
Why use it?
A backtest that assumes every order fills instantly at the displayed price can look better than real trading. These models add assumptions for spreads, order size, price impact, and signal-to-fill delay.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

execution-model scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Trade Execution Modeling

Overview

Provide more realistic execution assumptions for backtests, including slippage models, market-impact estimation, and execution-algorithm principles. This skill is for backtest simulation only and does not involve live order execution.

Slippage Models

Why Slippage Models Are Needed

Idealized backtest: filled at the close, zero slippage
Real world:
1. The order book has a bid-ask spread
2. Large orders push prices (market impact)
3. Execution is delayed (there is latency from signal to fill)

No slippage model -> overly optimistic backtest -> losses in live trading

Do not retype these models. All four are implemented and tested in src/quantlib/impact.py; import them. The tested versions validate their inputs — a zero ADV raises instead of dividing by zero, and a negative delay_bars raises instead of silently introducing look-ahead bias.

from src.quantlib.impact import fixed_slippage, linear_impact, sqrt_impact, delayed_execution

1. Fixed Slippage Model

fixed_slippage(price=100.0, direction=1, bps=5.0)   # 100.05  (buy pays up)
fixed_slippage(price=100.0, direction=-1, bps=5.0)  #  99.95  (sell receives less)

direction is 1 to buy or -1 to sell, and must be exactly one of those — it multiplies the impact, so an unchecked 2 would silently double the modelled cost. bps defaults to DEFAULT_SLIPPAGE_BPS (5.0).

Reference fixed-slippage assumptions by market:

Market Instrument Suggested Slippage (bps) Notes
China A-share large cap CSI 300 constituents 3-5 Good liquidity
China A-share small cap CSI 1000 constituents 5-10 Average liquidity
China micro-cap market cap < 5 billion RMB 10-30 Poor liquidity
US large cap AAPL / MSFT 1-3 Excellent liquidity
Hong Kong stocks Hang Seng constituents 5-10 Less liquid than A / US
BTC spot BTC-USDT 2-5 Good OKX liquidity
ETH spot ETH-USDT 3-8 Slightly worse than BTC
Small altcoins other -USDT pairs 10-50 Liquidity varies widely
