Machine Learning for Algorithmic Trading

Course Code: C1164

What's This Course About

Algorithmic trading relies on computer programs that execute algorithms to automate some or all elements of a trading strategy. Algorithms are a sequence of steps or rules designed to achieve a goal. They can take many forms and facilitate optimisation throughout the investment process, from idea generation to asset allocation, trade execution, and risk management.

Machine learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) involves algorithms that learn rules or patterns from data to achieve a goal such as minimizing a prediction error.  ML and DL algorithms can extract information from data to support or automate key investment activities. This course will teach the basis of ML and DL used for trading.
