Overview

We will create an algorithmic trading strategy that earns 50% annually.

What you'll learn:
  • Use numpy to do scientific calculation
  • Use pandas to import and organize data
  • Use Matplotlib to visualize data
  • Use, create, understand mathematical model
  • Machine learning for algorithmic trading
  • Features Engineering
  • Statistics for finance
  • Create an easy-to-reuse backtesting universe
  • Automatically take sales and buy positions
  • Data import with a API

It is with pride that I offer this data science course for algorithmic trading. It is the fruit of several years of work in the field to truly understand all the subtleties of the world of quantitative finance.


Using libraries will allow you to do complex mathematical calculations applied to finance in just a few lines of code. We will see how to create an algorithm for trading from data import to automatic positions. You will create an algorithm that will yield more than 50% annually on the Nasdaq 100 using an algorithm.
