sharpe
(X, rf=0, period=252, log=False, axis=0, dtype=None, ddof=0)¶ Compute the Sharpe ratio for each X’ series.
Parameters: - X : np.ndarray[dtype, ndim=1 or 2]
Time-series of prices, performances or index.
- rf : float, optional
Means the annualized risk-free rate, default is 0.
- period : int, optional
Number of period per year, default is 252 (trading days).
- log : bool, optional
If true compute sharpe with the formula for log-returns, default is False.
- axis : {0, 1}, optional
Axis along wich the computation is done. Default is 0.
- dtype : np.dtype, optional
The type of the output array. If dtype is not given, infer the data type from X input.
- ddof : int, optional
Means Delta Degrees of Freedom, the divisor used in calculations is
T - ddof
, whereT
represents the number of elements in time axis. Default is 0.
Returns: - dtype or np.ndarray[dtype, ndim=1]
Value of Sharpe ratio for each series.

Notes
Sharpe ratio [7] is computed as the annualized expected returns (
annual_return
) minus the risk-free rate (noted \(rf\)) over the annualized volatility of returns (annual_volatility
) such that:\[\begin{split}sharpeRatio = \frac{E(R) - rf}{\sqrt{period \times Var(R)}} \\ \\\end{split}\]where, \(R_1 = 0\) and \(R_{2:T} = \begin{cases}ln(\frac{X_{2:T}} {X_{1:T-1}}) \text{, if log=True}\\ \frac{X_{2:T}}{X_{1:T-1}} - 1 \text{, otherwise} \\ \end{cases}\)

Assume a series X of monthly prices:
