| 53 | +## How to Install |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +Before you can run the AI Hedge Fund, you'll need to install it and set up your API keys. These steps are common to both the full-stack web application and command line interface. |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +### 1. Clone the Repository |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +```bash |
| 60 | +git clone https://github.com/virattt/ai-hedge-fund.git |
| 61 | +cd ai-hedge-fund |
| 62 | +``` |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +### 2. Set up API keys |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +Create a `.env` file for your API keys: |
| 67 | +```bash |
| 68 | +# Create .env file for your API keys (in the root directory) |
| 69 | +cp .env.example .env |
| 70 | +``` |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +Open and edit the `.env` file to add your API keys: |
| 73 | +```bash |
| 74 | +# For running LLMs hosted by openai (gpt-4o, gpt-4o-mini, etc.) |
| 75 | +OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-api-key |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +# For getting financial data to power the hedge fund |
| 78 | +FINANCIAL_DATASETS_API_KEY=your-financial-datasets-api-key |
| 79 | +``` |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +**Important**: You must set at least one LLM API key (e.g. `OPENAI_API_KEY`, `GROQ_API_KEY`, `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, or `DEEPSEEK_API_KEY`) for the hedge fund to work. |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +**Financial Data**: Data for AAPL, GOOGL, MSFT, NVDA, and TSLA is free and does not require an API key. For any other ticker, you will need to set the `FINANCIAL_DATASETS_API_KEY` in the .env file. |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +## How to Run |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +### ⌨️ Command Line Interface |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +You can run the AI Hedge Fund directly via terminal. This approach offers more granular control and is useful for automation, scripting, and integration purposes. |

| 93 | +#### Quick Start |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +1. Install Poetry (if not already installed): |
| 96 | +```bash |
| 97 | +curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3 - |
| 98 | +``` |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +2. Install dependencies: |
| 101 | +```bash |
| 102 | +poetry install |
| 103 | +``` |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +#### Run the AI Hedge Fund |
| 106 | +```bash |
| 107 | +poetry run python src/main.py --ticker AAPL,MSFT,NVDA |
| 108 | +``` |
| 109 | + |
| 110 | +You can also specify a `--ollama` flag to run the AI hedge fund using local LLMs. |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | +```bash |
| 113 | +poetry run python src/main.py --ticker AAPL,MSFT,NVDA --ollama |
| 114 | +``` |
| 115 | + |
| 116 | +You can optionally specify the start and end dates to make decisions over a specific time period. |
| 117 | + |
| 118 | +```bash |
| 119 | +poetry run python src/main.py --ticker AAPL,MSFT,NVDA --start-date 2024-01-01 --end-date 2024-03-01 |
| 120 | +``` |
| 121 | + |
| 122 | +#### Run the Backtester |
| 123 | +```bash |
| 124 | +poetry run python src/backtester.py --ticker AAPL,MSFT,NVDA |
| 125 | +``` |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +**Example Output:** |

| 129 | + |
| 130 | + |
| 131 | +Note: The `--ollama`, `--start-date`, and `--end-date` flags work for the backtester, as well! |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | +### 🖥️ Web Application |
