# Risk Metrics
Time-series utilities for risk analysis, mean-reversion detection, and bootstrapped P&L distributions.
## Quick start
```python
import numpy as np
from optimizr import (
hurst_exponent_py,
estimate_half_life_py,
bootstrap_returns_py,
compute_risk_metrics_py,
)
returns = np.random.randn(2000) * 0.01
print("Hurst:", hurst_exponent_py(returns))
print("Half-life:", estimate_half_life_py(returns))
metrics = compute_risk_metrics_py(returns)
print(metrics) # mean, std, skew, kurtosis, sharpe
bootstrapped = bootstrap_returns_py(returns, n_samples=1000)
print("Bootstrap samples:", len(bootstrapped))
```
## Rolling and integration helpers
- Use `rolling_hurst_exponent_py` and `rolling_half_life_py` (from `timeseries_utils`) for sliding-window diagnostics on trading pairs.
- Combine with HMM: feed rolling statistics as features for regime detection.
- Pair with DE/Grid search: optimize strategy thresholds while computing half-life inside the objective.
## Practical guidance
- Input should be 1D NumPy arrays of returns; winsorize extreme tails before estimating Hurst/half-life for stability.
- Half-life helps size holding periods for mean-reversion trades; revisit whenever volatility regime changes.
- Bootstrap outputs can feed VaR/ES estimates; increase `n_samples` for tighter confidence bands.
