## 📈 Model Overview

This model represents a sophisticated **reinforcement learning trading agent** trained using the **Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO)** algorithm. The agent learns to make optimal trading decisions across multiple stocks by analyzing technical indicators, market patterns, and portfolio states.

### 🎯 Key Highlights

- **🧠 Algorithm**: PPO with Multi-Layer Perceptron policy
- **💰 Action Space**: Hybrid continuous/discrete (Action Type + Position Sizing)
- **📊 Observation Space**: 60-day lookback window with technical indicators
- **🏆 Training**: 500,000 timesteps across 5 major stocks
- **⚡ Performance**: Up to 7,243% returns with risk management

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Installation

```bash
pip install stable-baselines3 yfinance pandas numpy scikit-learn
```
### For data preparation, you can use Enhanced Enviroment and Stock data processor automated classes for data and enviroment preparation in python files provided in directory
### Load and Use the Model

```python
from stable_baselines3 import PPO
import pickle
import numpy as np

# Load the trained model
model = PPO.load("best_model.zip")

# Load the data scaler
with open("scaler.pkl", "rb") as f:
    scaler = pickle.load(f)

# Example prediction
obs = your_observation_data  # Shape: (n_features,)
action, _states = model.predict(obs, deterministic=True)

# Interpret action
action_type = int(action[0])  # 0: Hold, 1: Buy, 2: Sell
position_size = action[1]     # 0-1: Fraction of available capital
```

   - Range: `[0, 1]`
   - Represents fraction of available capital to use

## 🎯 Usage Examples

### 📈 Basic Trading Loop

```python
import yfinance as yf
import pandas as pd
from stable_baselines3 import PPO

# Load model and scaler
model = PPO.load("best_model.zip")
with open("scaler.pkl", "rb") as f:
    scaler = pickle.load(f)

# Get live data
ticker = "AAPL"
data = yf.download(ticker, period="3mo", interval="1d")

# Prepare observation (implement your feature engineering)
obs = prepare_observation(data, scaler)  # Your preprocessing function

# Get trading decision
action, _states = model.predict(obs, deterministic=True)
action_type = ["HOLD", "BUY", "SELL"][int(action[0])]
position_size = action[1]

print(f"Action: {action_type}, Size: {position_size:.2%}")

    position = 0
    
    for i in range(len(data)):
        obs = prepare_observation(data[:i+1])
        action, _ = model.predict(obs, deterministic=True)
        
        # Execute trading logic
        action_type = int(action[0])
        position_size = action[1]
        
        if action_type == 1:  # Buy
            shares_to_buy = (balance * position_size) // data.iloc[i]['Close']
            position += shares_to_buy
            balance -= shares_to_buy * data.iloc[i]['Close']

    """
    while True:
        # Get real-time market data
        market_data = await get_market_data()
        
        # Prepare observation
        obs = prepare_observation(market_data)
        
        # Get model prediction
        action, _ = model.predict(obs)
        
        # Execute trade (implement your broker API)
        if int(action[0]) != 0:  # Not hold
