Successful Algorithmic Trading - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Whether the systematic rules codi ed by the strategy actually produce a consistent return and whether the strategy possesses positive performance in the backtests. Whether a strategy maintains this positive performance in a live implementation or whether it needs to be retired. The ability to compare multiple strategies/portfolios such that we can reduce the opportu- nity cost associated with allocating a limited amount of trading capital. The particular items of quantitative analysis of performance that we will be interested in are as follows: Returns - The most visible aspect of a trading strategy concerns the percentage gain since inception, either in a backtest or a live trading environment. The two major performance measures here are Total Return and Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR). Drawdowns - A drawdown is a period of negative performance, as de ned from a prior high-water mark, itself de ned as the previous highest peak on a strategy or portfolio equity curve. We will de ne this more concretely below, but you can think of it for now as a (somewhat painful!) downward slope on your performance chart. Risk - Risk comprises many areas, and we'll spend signi cant time going over them in the following chapter, but generally it refers to both risk of capital loss, such as with drawdowns, and volatility of returns. The latter usually being calculated as an annualised standard deviation of returns. Risk/Reward Ratio - Institutional investors are mainly interested with risk-adjusted returns. Since higher volatility can often lead to higher returns at the expense of greate
The Art of Trend Trading: Animal Spirits and Your Path to Profits - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Look inward for the missing piece to your trading strategy The Art of Trend Trading bucks the trend of technicality to show readers how instinct and strategy can unite to bring about consistent investment success. Rather than diving ever-deeper into the overdone world of complicated modeling and forecasting techniques, trader, CEO, and bestselling author Michael Parness explains how making intuition a part of your investment strategy tends to result in more long-term profit. Using animal spirits as a metaphor and tool, Parness helps readers understand how their natural tendencies may run counter to their strategy, and how this dichotomy may be the shackle holding them back from true market success. Readers will learn how this perspective lifted Parness from homelessness to making millions in both Bull and Bear markets, and will start developing their own market instinct as they refine and tune into their own natural intuition. Everyone's looking for the "ultimate" system, a way to "game the market" and uncover the "secret" to successful investing. Over the years, Parness has observed that the best traders – those who consistently make money – are the ones that use instinct and intuition, as well as strategy. This book shows you how to identify the natural trader within, and use your gut to inform an ever-evolving investment plan. Follow the author's journey from homelessness to millionaire Identify and understand your own strengths and weaknesses Develop your instinct alongside your strategy Take a lesson from traders making consistent money There's no substitute for good strategy, but it's no secret that some strategies seem to be more profitable than others. The Art of Trend Trading helps you find that missing piece and turn it into more consistent investment success.
Small Powers and Trading Security : Contexts, Motives and Outcomes - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: This book examines why and how small powers link their security interests and trade agendas, and how security threats influence the facilitation and outcome of their trade activities. In doing so, it analyses the increasingly complex connections between trade and security, demonstrating how these linkages affect the overall security of four small but important states in East Asia. Focusing on the role of high levels of internal and external insecurities, marginal geo-economic size and peripheral geopolitical position, and multidimensional and multidirectional security contexts and threats, the author concludes that for every security enhancement that a linkage creates a consequent security risk is generated. In other words, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines are effectively trading their security. This innovative book will appeal to political scientists, economists, and security and trade experts.

The Routledge International Handbook of the Sociology of Education (Routledge International Handbooks of Education) - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: This collection brings together many of the world’s leading sociologists of education to explore and address key issues and concerns within the discipline. The thirty-seven newly commissioned chapters draw upon theory and research to provide new accounts of contemporary educational processes, global trends, and changing and enduring forms of social conflict and social inequality. The research, conducted by leading international scholars in the field, indicates that two complexly interrelated agendas are discernible in the heat and noise of educational change over the past twenty-five years. The first rests on a clear articulation by the state of its requirements of education. The second promotes at least the appearance of greater autonomy on the part of educational institutions in the delivery of those requirements. The Routledge International Handbook of the Sociology of Education examines the ways in which the sociology of education has responded to these two political agendas, addressing a range of issues which cover three key areas: perspectives and theories social processes and practices inequalities and resistances. The book strongly communicates the vibrancy and diversity of the sociology of education and the nature of ‘sociological work’ in this field. It will be a primary resource for teachers, as well as a title of major interest to practising sociologists of education.
