+Point-in-time data is a very important consideration when performing any sort of historical market analysis.
 
 For example, let’s say we are backtesting a trading strategy and we are using the past five years of historical data as our input.
 Our model is assumed to trade once a day, at the market close, and we’ll say we are calculating the trading signal for 1 January 2020 in our backtest. At that point, we should only have data for 1 January 2020, 31 December 2019, 30 December 2019 etc.

 `MACD`, short for moving average convergence/divergence, is a formulaic alpha used in technical analysis of stock prices. It is designed to reveal changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend in a stock's price.

+``Qlib`` provides a base class ``qlib.utils.serial.Serializable``, whose state can be dumped into or loaded from disk in `pickle` format.
 When users dump the state of a ``Serializable`` instance, the attributes of the instance whose name **does not** start with `_` will be saved on the disk.
 However, users can use ``config`` method or override ``default_dump_all`` attribute to prevent this feature.
 
 Users can also override ``pickle_backend`` attribute to choose a pickle backend. The supported value is "pickle" (default and common) and "dill" (dump more things such as function, more information in `here <https://pypi.org/project/dill/>`_).

     After reloading the ``DatasetH``, users need to reinitialize it. It means that users can reset some states of ``DatasetH`` or ``QlibDataHandler`` such as `instruments`, `start_time`, `end_time` and `segments`, etc.,  and generate new data according to the states (data is not state and should not be saved on the disk).
