Trading Alphas – Mining, Optimisation, and System Design
Why should you choose micro alpha models over other trading strategies such as traditional factor models, risk-parity, or trend following? In short, these models, if built well, can provide better performance, stability, and risk management than other trading systems. In this course, you will learn where micro-alphas reside and how to write the most efficient codes to quickly analyse, backtest, optimise and go live with your trading strategy in the least amount of time possible.
LIVE TRADING
- Backtesting, adding stop-loss and profit-take using vectorised approach
- Mining micro-alphas using trends, mean-reversion, correlation across assets, and cointegration
- Metrics for analysing strategy which include total profit, sharpe ratio, sortino ratio, profit factor, drawdown, and profit per trade
- Parameter optimisation using machine learning techniques such as clustering
- Building a trading system from scratch
- Explain software architecture, logging, storage, hardware, testing and version control
- Brief study on execution models, implement parallel computing and describe different levels of logging
