A Solution Framework for Modeling and Hedging Impermanent Loss and
Dynamic Liquidity Provision Using Deep Reinforcement Learning
in Uniswap V3 with Concentrated Liquidity. Fintech as a Service (FaaS): Hackathon of NUS Fintech Summit 2024.

This project provides a solution framework for hedging impermanent loss of liquidity providers in Uniswap V3 with concentrated liquidity provision, which is realized with a delta-gamma hedging strategy. The bact-testing showcase is presented below:
Based on the back-testing results, of which the process is documented in 3.3 Back-testing Delta-Gamma Hedge.ipynb in detail, the proposed hedging strategy is potential for fully hedging the impermanent loss raised from the liquidity position in Uniswap V3.
As required by the submission criterion of the hackathon, the project is initially oriented with Jupyter Notebooks, including results from static modelling to dynamic back-testing:
The notebook table is out-dated. We got a lot more new work already!
Will polish the table later!!

| 3.1 Back-testing No Hedge.ipynb |
| Back-testing with no hedging strategy while fee and impermanent loss calculated |
| 3.2 Back-testing Delta Hedge.ipynb |
| Back-testing with delta hedging strategy applied with compared performance to no hedging strategy applied. The results show that delta hedging strategy together with fee earned can partially hedge the impermanent loss. |
| 3.3 Back-testing Delta-Gamma Hedge.ipynb |
| Back-testing with delta-gamma hedging strategy applied with compared performance. The results whos that delta-gamma hedging strategy can potentially fully hedge the impermanent loss, thus achieved the optimal performance. |
