Discover how today's forex market works and understand the
essential risks in forex algo trading and how to mitigate them Key
Features * Research and build trading applications without advanced
Python programming skills * Dive into professional fx trading and
make your algo trading apps more adequate for the real market *
Develop simple yet efficient backtesting applications which help
you keep the expectations realistic Book Description Algo trading,
especially in the forex market, has long been very popular among
programmers and especially Python professionals because of the
visible simplicity to start. However, statistics say that only less
than 5% of traders are able to survive in this market. One of the
reasons is that developers of algo trading applications do not take
into consideration many important features of this market and have
their live results radically differ from expectations The book is a
comprehensive guide to anything market-related: data, orders,
trading venues, and risk. From the programming side, it explains
the general architecture of trading applications, focuses on
systemic risk management, covers many de-facto industry standards
such as FIX protocol, TA-lib, and scikit-learn gives practical
examples of using basic pattern recognition to identify market
behavior, explains how to create realistic tests, and finally
considers a number of sample apps with full code By the end of this
book, you will learn to retrieve market data, clean it up and
filter it, compress it into various formats, apply trading logic,
emulate the execution of orders, and test the trading app before
trading live What you will learn * Run reliable backtesting
emulating real-world conditions * Translate trading ideas into code
* Understand the essentials of fundamental and technical analysis *
Use popular technical analysis and machine learning libraries *
Connect to data sources and check the integrity of market data *
Use API and FIX protocol to send orders Who This Book Is For This
book is for Financial traders and Python developers who are
interested in forex trading. Academic researchers who want to focus
on practical applications will also find this book useful. On the
other hand, this book can be a fit for even established fx market
professionals who would like to take the first steps in algo
trading. In order to learn from this book, you should have a solid
understanding of OOP and Python in particular with a general
understanding of network protocols and interfaces. No advanced
