Introduction to Python for Quantitative finance and investing

من 206.49 QAR /س

Python is one of the most powerful programming/scripting tools of our times. However, learning from textbooks or online can become time consuming and inefficient, since we easily lose focus. In this class, we learn by doing. As you learn new techniques and concepts, you will immediately use them to build tools that will help you become a data-driven and informed investor or trader. At the end of the class, you are left with a basic understanding of what python can do, but also with a template code that you can later use to build you own strategies on top.

The class in a nutshell:

(1) How to extract market data with python, such as: OHLC quotes, volume, dividend history, financial history etc.
(2) How to store and handle data efficiently.
(3) How to build and group your own portfolio based on any custom metric (e.g. P/E ratio, Debt/Equity ratio, dividend etc)
(4) How to build future paths of a stock in our portfolio, via Monte Carlo simulations, based on your own beliefs (e.g. optimistic/pessimistic).

من أنا؟

I come from Greece, but I moved in the Netherlands more than five years ago where I studied and obtained my PhD in High Energy Astrophysics. Since then, I have been working as a quantitative analyst for a big bank in the Netherlands. I have ample experience in building algorithms and quantitative tools for trading and investing using python. My main focus is derivative (option) trading and valuation, but that is a long discussion.The environment in my classes is very friendly and not formal at all, and I always welcome a nice conversation about the financial markets, philosophy or life in general.

Python is the programming language these days. It is simple, nice and almost all modern applications use it. With Python, we can now create artificial intelligence models that reduce human effort and give us more accurate and reliable results. The Java and C languages are not lacking in importance, they also make it possible to create applications optimized in terms of RAM.

The composition of the course depends on the level of the student and his own objectives. The first session is a one-hour evaluation session which allows the diagnosis of the level and the needs of the student. From this diagnosis we establish together a program that we will follow during our course.

Generally the course allows the student to assimilate:
* Predefined Data Types & Variables;
* Conditional Structures & Loops;
* Functions ;
* Object-oriented programming (OOP);
* Digital engineering;
* An introduction to databases (Examples and uses)
* Relational Algebra
* LDD, LCD, LMD, LCT
* SQL queries (SELECT, UPDATE, ...)
* Creation of a database and automation of queries using the Python language
* Handling files (TXT, Excel, CSV, JSON, Word);
* Data science;
* Introduction and some applications of Artificial Intelligence.

I am waiting for you to start this adventure.

Are you a university student, engineer, or professional who needs to actually use data — not just learn theory about it?
This course is built around real problems and real code. We skip the textbook formulas and go straight to applying statistics and data science the way professionals do: with Python (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, matplotlib) and R (RStudio).
What we cover, adapted to your level and goals:
- Descriptive and inferential statistics (the ones that actually matter)
- Data cleaning, exploration, and visualization
- Regression, classification, and intro to machine learning
- Time series and forecasting basics
- R for statistical analysis and academic research
