Algorithmic Trading & Time Series Analysis in Python and R
Algorithmic Trading & Time Series Analysis in Python and R
This course is about the fundamental basics of algorithmic trading. First of all you will learn about stocks, bonds and the fundamental basic of stock market and the FOREX. The main reason of this course is to get a better understanding of mathematical models concerning algorithmic trading and finance in the main.
We will use Python and R as programming languages during the lectures
