Automated Trading with R: Quantitative Research and Platform Development - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: This book explains the broad topic of automated trading, starting with its mathematics and moving to its computation and execution. Readers will gain a unique insight into the mechanics and computational considerations taken in building a backtester, strategy optimizer, and fully functional trading platform. Automated Trading with R provides automated traders with all the tools they need to trade algorithmically with their existing brokerage, from data management, to strategy optimization, to order execution, using free and publically available data. If your brokerage’s API is supported, the source code is plug-and-play. The platform built in this book can serve as a complete replacement for commercially available platforms used by retail traders and small funds. Software components are strictly decoupled and easily scalable, providing opportunity to substitute any data source, trading algorithm, or brokerage. The book’s three objectives are: To provide a flexible alternative to common strategy automation frameworks, like Tradestation, Metatrader, and CQG, to small funds and retail traders. To offer an understanding the internal mechanisms of an automated trading system. To standardize discussion and notation of real-world strategy optimization problems. What you’ll learn Programming an automated strategy in R gives the trader access to R and its package library for optimizing strategies, generating real-time trading decisions, and minimizing computation time. How to best simulate strategy performance in their specific use case to derive accurate performance estimates. Important machine-learning criteria for statistical validity in the context of time-series. An understanding of critical real-world variables pertaining to portfolio management and performance assessment, including latency, drawdowns, varying trade size, portfolio growth, and penalization of unused capital.

The European Emission Trading System and Its Followers: Comparative Analysis and Linking Perspectives - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Given the rapid spread of ETSs in an increasing number of countries and the important role that they are likely to play for the success or failure of the environmental policy in the years to come, this book provides an interdisciplinary analysis of the EU ETS from both the legal and economic perspectives comparing it with the other main ETSs existing worldwide, in order to assess whether the EU ETS has truly represented a prototype for the other ETSs established around the world and to investigate the current perspectives for linking them in the future.Through the years, the EU ETS has progressively gained a paramount position within the EU environmental policy and climate change legislation and currently represents the most striking flagship in this sector, with more than 11.000 installations covered by the scheme. In parallel, the EU ETS has paved the way for the establishment of many other ETSs in several other jurisdictions. Such schemes are now recognized worldwide as the “cornerstones” of the climate change policy.
Trading on sentiment : the power of minds over markets - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: his book is based on a simple claim: There are patterns in market prices. While that assertion is controversial among academics, belief in that notion is a prerequisite to work in the investment industry. Investors who propose to beat the market attempt to harvest some mispricing, somewhere, often systematically. This book covers broad scientific and experimental ground as it makes the case that not only do price patterns exist, but the most predictable pat- terns are rooted in the anatomy of the human brain and the biology of its information processing networks. Some information provokes emotional reactions—as we describe in subsequent chapters—and these reactions predictably alter trading behav- ior. In this book the term sentiment refers to emotions, feelings, outlooks, Trim Size: 6in x 9in Peterson fpref.tex V2 - 02/19/2016 8:51pm Page xix Preface xix attitudes, and beliefs. Sometimes investors reveal their sentiment through their statements in news and social media, and those statements become the predictive information of interest. Sentiments alter collective behavior, leading to patterns in prices. This book is organized into five parts. Part One explores the foundations of investor behavior. Investor sentiment has been found predictive of market price action based on humans’ innate information processing networks and specific characteristics of information. Part Two examines short-term price patterns that result from both news and social media. Part Three lays out the longer-term price patterns associated with sentiment, including momen- tum and value enhancements with sentiment. Part Four describes complex price patterns such as speculative bubbles and patterns in commodities and currencies. Part Five turns its attention to individual investor psychology, sharing tools to help investors avoid the biases whose effects on collective trading behavior cause the price patterns examined in this book.

Multi-Period Trading via Convex Optimization - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Our investments will be in a universe of n assets, along with an associated cash account. We let ht ∈ Rn+1 denote the portfolio (or vector of positions or holdings) at the beginning of time period t, where (ht)i is the dollar value of asset i at the beginning of time period t, with (ht)i < 0 meaning a short position in asset i, for i = 1, . . . , n. The portfolio is long-only when the asset holdings are all nonnegative, i.e., (ht)i ≥ 0 for i = 1, . . . , n. The value of (ht)n+1 is the cash balance, with (ht)n+1 < 0 meaning that money is owed (or borrowed). The dollar value for the assets is determined using the reference prices pt ∈ Rn +, defined as the average of the bid and ask prices at the beginning of time period t. When (ht)n+1 = 0, the portfolio is fully invested, meaning that we hold (or owe) zero cash, and all our holdings (long and short) are in assets. Total value, exposure, and leverage. The total value (or net asset value, NAV) vt of the portfolio, in dollars, at time t is vt = 1T ht, where 1 is the vector with all entries one. (This is not quite the amount of cash the portfolio would yield on liquidation, due to transaction costs, discussed below.) Throughout this paper we will assume that vt > 0, i.e., the total portfolio value is positive. The vecto
Barometer of fear: an insider's account of rogue trading and the greatest banking scandal in history - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: I had gone to India on holiday, and on the second day (it was 17 February 2009) I made a phone call to my manager at Merrill Lynch, who, as it happened, was also away from the office, telling him I wanted to talk. He said he was in a ski lift in Switzerland, and told me that he would call back in two or three hours. When he did, he initiated a conversation that would become the most difficult of my life. I informed him that my trading books were overvalued and had been so since mid-January. I had hoped that this would only be temporary but the markets had continued to move against me. ‘How much are we talking about?’ he asked. ‘It could be 100 million.’ ‘Why didn’t you tell me?’ ‘I really don’t know,’ I replied. ‘But now I feel ashamed. I want to apologise.’ Having opened the floodgates, the questioning began. I was interrogated about risk, volatility, hedging, 2008, liquidity, the credit crunch, Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, other people’s losses, price movements, my previous boss, Bank of America, bonuses, profits, honesty, 2009, management, pressure, smoothing of profit and loss, exhaustion. Towards the end of our 45-minute conversation he asked: ‘Could this be a momentary lapse of reason?’ ‘Yes,’ I replied. ‘This is obviously very serious,’ he said. ‘It could go all the way up to the FSA.’
