About Algorithmic trading for beginners: from zero to hero

Do you want to create algorithmic trading strategies? You already have some trading knowledge and you want to learn about quantitative trading/finance? You are simply a curious person who wants to get into this subject to monetize and diversify your knowledge? If you answer at least one of these questions, I welcome you to this course. All the applications of the course will be done using Python. However, for

beginners in Python

, don't panic! There is a

FREE python crash course

included to master Python. In this course, you will learn how to use

technical analysis

to create

robust strategies

. You will perform

quantitative analysis

to find patterns in the data. Once you will have many

profitable strategies

, we will learn how to perform vectorized backtesting. Then you will apply

portfolio

and

risk management techniques

to reduce the drawdown and maximize your returns. You will learn and understand quantitative analysis used by portfolio managers and professional traders:

Modeling:

Technical analysis (_Moving average, RSI_) and condition combination.

Backtesting:

Do a backtest properly without error and minimize the computation time (_Vectorized Backtesting_).

Risk management:

Manage the drawdown(_Stop loss_), combine strategies properly (_Strategies portoflio_). Why this course and not another?

This is not a programming course nor a trading course or a machine learning course. It is a course in which statistics, programming and financial theory are used for trading.

This course is not created by a data scientist but by a degree in mathematics and economics specializing in mathematics applied to finance.

You can ask questions or read our quantitative finance articles simply by registering on our free Discord forum. Without forgetting that the course is satisfied or refunded for 30 days. Don't miss an opportunity to improve your knowledge of this fascinating subject.
