Synopsis
Praise for Machine Trading "It is easy to make simple ideas complex. It is far more difficult to make complex ideas seem simple. In this book, Ernie has done exactly that. I cannot think of any trader who would not benefit from reading Machine Trading ." Euan Sinclair , Partner, Talton Capital Management; author, Volatility Trading "As with his first two books, Ernie delves into the practical matters of automated trading in Machine Trading . He carefully explains everything from where to find quality data, to which platforms to consider, to timely and topical strategies. In the years since his last book, automation of the investment industry has accelerated, due in large part to the recent Cambrian Explosion in financial technology (FinTech). Ernie has long been teaching the hardtofind methods of automated trading; now he is also a guide to the dizzying array of new companies, technologies, and services for automated trading. Machine Trading takes you deeper into the field with new concepts, while still delivering Ernie's signature explanation of the concrete steps of pursuing your own passion for automated trading." John Fawcett , CEO and Founder, Quantopian "Dr. Chan has written another accessible and informationpacked book for the quantminded trader. The book starts with a clear discussion of factor models, advanced time series analysis, and Kalman filters, all of which lead into a detailed description of machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques applied to volatility trading, market microstructure, and even Bitcoins. His focus on finance in a MATLAB context is refreshing and opens the algorithmic trading domain to a whole generation of engineers and quantitative practitioners not familiar with finance but involved in numerate fields like selfdriving cars and proteomics. I highly recommend it." Dr. Taha Jaffer , President, OXOBOXO Inc.; formerly Principal at The Carlyle Group, Dive into algo trading with step-by-step tutorials and expert insight Machine Trading is a practical guide to building your algorithmic trading business. Written by a recognized trader with major institution expertise, this book provides step-by-step instruction on quantitative trading and the latest technologies available even outside the Wall Street sphere. You'll discover the latest platforms that are becoming increasingly easy to use, gain access to new markets, and learn new quantitative strategies that are applicable to stocks, options, futures, currencies, and even bitcoins. The companion website provides downloadable software codes, and you'll learn to design your own proprietary tools using MATLAB. The author's experiences provide deep insight into both the business and human side of systematic trading and money management, and his evolution from proprietary trader to fund manager contains valuable lessons for investors at any level. Algorithmic trading is booming, and the theories, tools, technologies, and the markets themselves are evolving at a rapid pace. This book gets you up to speed, and walks you through the process of developing your own proprietary trading operation using the latest tools. Utilize the newer, easier algorithmic trading platforms Access markets previously unavailable to systematic traders Adopt new strategies for a variety of instruments Gain expert perspective into the human side of trading The strength of algorithmic trading is its versatility.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
