Use Techniques Similar to the Top Hedge Funds

Quantitative investment managers have been beating the market for decades now using computers, with many getting more than double the average stock market return while taking on less risk. We can teach you how to develop similar techniques so that you can fight back with your own algorithms.

Here are the returns that the top quantitative (software/algorithm-based) hedge funds have been making for decades, and keep in mind this is after they take their 20% – 40% fees!

Note: While we believe achieving such returns is possible, some individuals’ results could be significantly different. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect our opinions only as of the date of this presentation.

Our Course Is For:

  • Finance professionals new to data science who want to learn Machine Learning to take their career to the next level,
  • Experienced programmers looking to work in a Finance context,
  • Individuals who want to learn Python to analyze their investments and automate their trades to help make them more money,
  • Individuals who are interested in a Data Science job or a developer job in a financial institution.

Project 1: Forecasting Stock Prices Using Machine Learning

In this project, we will use the latest machine learning techniques to forecast a stock’s price 15 minutes into the future on a rolling basis. This technique can be applied for your trading to help you get better returns, and can also be used in many other finance applications such as forecasting revenue, profit, and other time-series data.

Project 2: Using Machine Learning to Trade on the News

For this project, you will pull data from a news source (e.g. Bloomberg, Twitter, Reddit, etc) and then train a machine-learning algorithm to read the news and suggest trades. Some examples of this could be breaking news, analyst recommendations, social media interest, and more, where your algorithm could react hundreds of times faster than a human being.
