Description
About the Lazy Trading Courses:
This series of courses is designed to to combine fascinating experience of Algorithmic Trading and at the same time to learn Computer and Data Science! Particular focus is made on building Decision Support System that can help to automate a lot of boring processes related to Trading and also learn Data Science. Several algorithms will be built by performing basic data cycle 'data input-data manipulation - analysis -output'. Provided examples throughout all 7 courses will show how to build very comprehensive system capable to automatically evolve without much manual input.
Inspired by:
“it is insane to expect that one system to work for all market types” // -Van K. Tharp
“Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity” // -Seneca (Roman philosopher)
About this Course: Use Artificial Intelligence in Trading
This course will cover usage of Deep Learning Classification Model to classify Market Status of Financial Assets using Deep Learning:

This project is containing several short courses focused to help you managing your Automated Trading Systems:
Set up your Home Trading Environment
Set up your Trading Strategy Robot
Set up your automated Trading Journal
Statistical Automated Trading Control
Reading News and Sentiment Analysis
Using Artificial Intelligence to detect market status
Building an AI trading system
Update: dedicated R package 'lazytrade' was created to facilitate code sharing among different courses
IMPORTANT: all courses will have a 'quick to deploy' sections as well as sections containing theoretical explanations.
What will you learn apart of trading:
While completing these courses you will learn much more rather than just trading by using provided examples:
Learn and practice to use Decision Support System

Instructors
Hello, I am really excited that you read my little story here!
I am a Chemical Engineer by education, Problem Solver by nature and Instructor by hobby. I currently work in Swiss Multinational Company as Senior Engineering Specialist in R&D. I like to learn and apply modern technology to gain value. Being Certified Green Belt in Lean Six Sigma I always try to reduce inefficiencies by finding complex patterns or applying new methods to close gaps.
I would like to bring some ideas on how one can be more productive. How to collect data in a smarter way using simple tools, how to make it easier to take a decision, and … why not to automate the decision using Artificial Intelligence? I will try to cover very practical side of technology, show how to benefit from it with concrete examples.
p.s. I will try my best to provide the best possible learning experience. If it would not be the case I would be very happy to receive any constructive feedback on how can I be better.
I am an economist and a programmer. I got my undergraduate degree in Economics from Católica Porto Business School. After I finished my undergraduate degree, I made an internship in an Investment Bank that opened my mind to the role of programming and the importance of stepping out. So I have decided to learn programming languages to develop algorithmic trading robots.
I believe that a self-educated person can easily step out of the box.
Currently, I am doing a master's degree in Finance and one of the things that most fascinates me about this is that I almost can apply what I have learned in the classes right away.
I can fluently speak three languages (PT, EN, and ES). I am an MQL4(C++) expert but I also can program in R and VBA.
Besides my professional career, I am a golf player and I enjoy spending time with my friends and family.
p.s. I hope that you get the best learning experience out of these courses. These are supposed to help you achieve goals in a faster and easier way. I am always happily available to help you. I case you have any doubts drop me a message. Enjoy the Courses!
