Algorithmic Trading with Python: Build, Backtest, and Automate Strategies with Code, Data, and Real-World Market Tools
Not long ago, the world of algorithmic trading belonged only to Wall Street banks and hedge funds. Their secret edge? Automated systems that could scan markets, crunch numbers, and execute trades faster and more consistently than any human.
Today, that edge is no longer out of reach. With nothing more than a laptop and Python, you can now build the very same kind of trading systems—and this book shows you how.
Algorithmic Trading with Python isn’t theory. It’s a hands-on journey that takes you from zero to running fully automated strategies. Along the way, you’ll discover three turn-key trading systems ready to
A momentum strategy that hunts for assets poised to keep running higher.
A trend-following system that rides the big waves in stocks, forex, or crypto.
A pullback strategy that times short-term reversals for quick gains.
You’ll watch them come alive on your screen, from raw data to charts, signals, and backtested results. And you’ll see exactly how to tweak, expand, and deploy them for your own trading.
But this book isn’t just about code. It’s about thinking like a quant: testing ideas before risking a dollar, managing risk with precision, and automating the boring parts so you can focus on refining your edge.
By the final chapter, you won’t just understand algorithmic trading—you’ll have your own systems, coded and tested, ready to plug into live markets.
If you’ve ever wondered how traders build machines that trade for them, this is your chance to step inside the world of systematic trading—and claim that power for yourself.
