Returns are not normally distributed.
Why do your metrics assume they are?
The Omega ratio considers the full distribution.
Hereโ€™s how in Python:
1/Get data
I use yfinance to get stock data in 1 line of code.
2/Build the Omega ratio

3/Analyze return the distribution
Asset returns are not normally distributed.
4/Compute the Omega ratio

1. Get data
2. Compute Omega
3. Analyze distributions
