Key Features:
- Backtest Python trading strategies with VectorBT and Zipline Reloaded using walk-forward analysis
- Measure risk, performance, and alpha quality with Alphalens Reloaded and PyFolio
- Automate strategy execution with the Interactive Brokers API for live trading
Book Description:
Get practical Python code for algorithmic trading from Jason Strimpel, founder of PyQuant News and a veteran of global trading, risk management, and machine learning. This hands-on guide shows you how to turn market data into tested, automated trading strategies using modern Python tools.
You'll source equities, options, and futures data with OpenBB and FMP, then accelerate Python for data analysis workflows with Pandas, Polars, Parquet, DuckDB, and ArcticDB. You'll visualize market data with Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Plotly Dash before moving into alpha research and quantitative trading techniques.
Detailed recipes help you engineer alpha factors with PCA, regression, Fama-French models, SciPy, and statsmodels. You'll design and evaluate quantitative trading strategies using VectorBT, Zipline Reloaded, Alphalens Reloaded, and PyFolio, including walk-forward analysis and risk-aware performance review.
For execution, you'll connect to the Interactive Brokers API to stream ticks, manage orders, retrieve portfolio state, and monitor live trading workflows. By the end, you'll have reusable Python templates for researching, backtesting, evaluating, and operating algorithmic trading strategies.
