Strategizing - Algorithmic Trading with Python and Quantopian p. 9



In this tutorial, we cover how to begin realistically building a trading strategy. In the previous tutorials, we showed how we might go about finding a single alpha factor to trade stocks on, and then trading off of it, but this is almost certainly never going to be enough, so, here, we cover the steps and theory to building an optimal trading strategy. https://pythonprogramming.net https://twitter.com/sentdex https://www.facebook.com/pythonprogramming.net/ https://plus.google.com/+sentdex

  1. Isn't there an error in the way you define the two quantiles:
    'shorts': (sentiment_factor <= -2) <--- minus is missing in your code
  2. You are amazing - I switched from Javascript to Python after watching your videos, that's the impact ! I hope I can make small apps and have fun programming with python.
  3. Thanks again @sentdex, do you recommend any books/resources for finding strategies ?
