Professional Automated Trading

An insider's view of how to develop and operate an automatedproprietary trading network Reflecting author Eugene Durenard's extensive experience in thisfield, Professional Automated Trading offers valuableinsights you won't find anywhere else. It reveals how a series ofconcepts and techniques coming from current research in artificiallife and modern control theory can be applied to the design ofeffective trading systems that outperform the majority of publishedtrading systems. It also skillfully provides you with essentialinformation on the practical coding and implementation of ascalable systematic trading architecture. Based on years of practical experience in building successfulresearch and infrastructure processes for purpose of trading atseveral frequencies, this book is designed to be a comprehensiveguide for understanding the theory of design and the practice ofimplementation of an automated systematic trading process at aninstitutional scale. Discusses several classical strategies and covers the design ofefficient simulation engines for back and forward testing Provides insights on effectively implementing a series ofdistributed processes that should form the core of a robust andfault-tolerant automated systematic trading architecture Addresses trade execution optimization by studyingmarket-pressure models and minimization of costs via applicationsof execution algorithms Introduces a series of novel concepts from artificial life andmodern control theory that enhance robustness of the systematicdecision making—focusing on various aspects of adaptation anddynamic optimal model choice Engaging and informative, Proprietary Automated Tradingcovers the most important aspects of this endeavor and will put youin a better position to excel at it.
